malapoetism

Contributed by Spike on Sunday, 8th July 2007 @ 10:19:42 AM in AEST
Topic: HumorPoetry







'It's not a tumor! It’s not a tumor, at all…’
Detective John Kimble (Kindergarten Cop 1990)


a small blow to the head;
I think that’s it
still, better than a
quack with a wet dish

every cloud has its thorns,
each rose a silver lining
there are plenty more wishes in the sea
where the grass is half full to me

a bird in the hand is inescapable,
a poet more capable
of mauling discussion
if administered concussion;
or mangling the phrasia
if suffering aphasia.



Malapropism: The unintentional misuse of a word by confusion with one that sounds similar.

Aphasia: Inability to use or understand language (spoken or written) because of a brain lesion

Wonderful wordplay! Some of those mangled phrases make interesting images!

Take care,
Dom
