Becoming Gourdy(from the archives)

Post by gordy » Wed Aug 18, 2004 8:10 am

As I approach the age of forty
(slowly approach, I must say)
I'm living up to the name Gordy
My middle expands day by day

As I do less exercise and more ingesting
It seems it's fat, not muscle, I've stored
And much to my protesting
I'm taking the shape of a gourd

When I met my wife she thought my bod
was slim and firm like a barracuda.
Then, I had the body of a god
I still do, but now that god is Buddha

My Jesus hung out with thieves and sluts and liars, which Jesus do you worship?

Perfection is my enemy
Procrastination is his cohort
Persistence is my sword

:cheers: ......great laugh......thanks....... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
... and his words purge up and outward,
expelled and onward through desert dust swallowed,
sands he says that gorge on simple sensibilities.
And, now he spits fragments, grit, extended vowels and elongated syllables
over cracked lips. Their sounds fall
piling round his boots…

Anyone can be passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly.

:thumbsup:

even though buddha is/was neither god nor fat

humorous none the less

ice storm+weather+no pwr at the house = me eating garbage and not working out.. feeling fat :p
