Subj: Poetry
of DH Rumsfeld (S335b)
From: tadams96 on 6/24/2003
Listen closely. What you hear
coming from the mouth of Defense
Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld
is actually an "art form." Call
it "literary intelligence."
The Pentagon's top dog, it turns
out, has an unsung gift for
free verse, haiku and sonnets.
In fact, Mr. Rumsfeld's poems
are regularly embedded in the
transcripts of his daily news
briefings and interviews. All
it took was for somebody to
pull out the prose, which author
Hart Seely has done in his amazing
new book, "Pieces of
Intelligence: The Existential
Poetry of Donald H. Rumsfeld"
(The Free Press, $12.95).
"At times, Rumsfeld composes
in jazzy, lyrical riffs that
pulsate with the rhythm of his
childhood on the streets of
Chicago. From there, he'll
unfurl a Homeric tale cautioning
us about the ways of bureaucracy,"
Mr. Seely notes. "He'll
fire off rounds of irony with
a Western cowboy's sensibility,
enough for some to call him
'America's poet lariat.' "
Either way, the poetry of D.H. Rumsfeld demands to be read aloud.
Let's begin with "Needless to Say."
Needless to say,
The president is
correct.
Whatever it was
he said.

The Unknown
As we know,
There are known
knowns.
There are things
we know we know.
We also know
There are known
unknowns.
That is to say
We know there are
some things
We do not know.
But there are also
unknown unknowns,
The ones we don't
know we don't know.
— Feb. 12, 2002,
Pentagon briefing
Field of Schemes
Is the playing
field this wide?
Or is it that wide?
One can't know
that
Until one knows
up above.
The president can't
know that
Until he knows
what the possibilities are
And what the risks
are
If the playing
field's this wide
As opposed to that
wide.

Subj: Walking
A Crooked Path (S277b)
From: mombear1 on 5/20/2002
One day through the primeval
woods,
a calf walked home as good calves
should.
But made a trail all bent askew,
a crooked trail as all calves
do.
Since then three hundred years
have fled,
and I infer the calf is dead.
But still he left behind his
trail,
and thereby hangs my moral tale.
The trail was taken up next day,
by a lone dog that passed that
way:
And then a wise bell-wether sheep,
pursued the trail o'er vale
and steep,
And drew the flock behind him,
too,
as good bell-wether sheep, always
do.
And from that day, o'er hill
and glade,
through those old woods a path
was made.
And many men wound in and out,
and dodged and turned and bet
about,
And uttered words of righteous
wrath,
because 'twas such a crooked
path;
But still they followed--do not
laugh--
the first migrations of that
calf.
And through this winding wood-way
stalked,
because he wobbled when he walked.
This forest patch became a lane,
that bent and turned and turned
again;
This crooked lane became a road,
where many a poor horse with
his load,
Toiled on beneath the burning
sun,
and traveled some three miles
in one.
And thus a century and a half,
they tred the footsteps of that
calf.
The years passed on in swiftness
fleet,
the road became a village street;
And this, before men were aware,
a city's crowded thoroughfare.
And soon the central street was
this,
of a renowned metropolis;
And men two centuries and a half,
tred in the footsteps of that
calf.
Each day a hundred thousand men,
follow this zigzag calf again,
And o'er his crooked journey
went,
the traffic of a continent.
A hundred thousand men were led,
by one calf near three centuries
dead.
They followed still his crooked
way,
and lost one hundred years a
day;
For thus such reverence is lent,
to a well-established precedent.
A moral lesson this might teach,
were I ordained and called to
preach;
For men are prone to get blind,
along the calf-path of the mind,
And work away from sun to sun,
to do what others men have done.
They follow in the beaten track,
and in and out, and forth and
back,
And still their devious course
pursue,
to keep the path that others
do.
They keep the path a sacred groove,
along which all their lives
they move.
But how the old wood-gods laugh,
who first saw the primeval calf.
And, many things this tale might
teach--
but I'm not ordained to preach.

You Will Never See In Hallmark
From: ICohen on 1/28/2002
"Looking back over the years
that we've been together,
I can't help but wonder....
What the f*** was I thinking?"
"Congratulations on your wedding
day!
Too bad no one likes your wife."
"How could two people as beautiful
as you.....
have such an ugly baby?"
"I've always wanted to have someone
to hold, someone to love.
After meeting you, I've changed
my mind."
"I must admit,you brought Religion
in my life.
I never believed in Hell until
I met you."
"As the days go by, I think of
how lucky I am
that you're not here to ruin
it for me."
"If I get only one thing for
Christmas,
I hope it's your sister."
"As I grow older, Mum, I think
of all the gifts you've given
me. Like the need for
therapy..."
"When we were together, you always
said you'd die for me.
Now that we've broke up....
I think it's time you kept your
promise."
"I knew the day would come when
you would leave me for my
best friend. So here's
his leash, water bowl and chew toys."
"Congratulations on your new
bundle of joy.
Any idea who the father was?"
"You are such a good friend that
if we were on a sinking ship
and there was only one life
jacket...
I'd miss you heaps and think
of you often."
"Happy Birthday, Uncle Dad!!"

Arkansas)

Subj: Romantic
and Unromantic (S284b, S536b)
From: pns on 7/7/2002
and
From: LABLaughsAdult on 4/12/2007
Taken from an internet site where
there's a competition
for writing the most romantic
first line and most
unromantic second line.
Roses are red, violets are blue,
sugar is sweet and so are you.
But the roses are wilting, the
violets are dead, the sugar
bowl's empty and
so is your head.
After you, my love, my only prize.
Would be a bullet between the
eyes.
Of loving beauty you float with
grace.
If only you could hide your
face.
I thought that I could love no
other.
Until, that is, I met your brother.
Kind, intelligent, loving and
hot.
This describes everything you're
not.
I want to feel your sweet embrace.
But don't take that paper bag
off your face.
I love your smile, your face,
and your eyes ...
Damn, I'm good at telling lies!
Every time I see your face I wish I were in outer space.
I saw your face as you walked
by
But then I saw
a better guy.
My darling, my lover, my beautiful
wife:
Marrying you screwed up my life.
Beauty is on the inside, but
some may doubt.
If its true, I'd prefer you
inside out.
What inspired this amorous rhyme?
Two parts vodka, one part lime.
I see your face when I am dreaming.
That's why I always wake up
screaming.
My love you take my breath away.
What have you stepped in to
smell this way?

Subj: Joe
Awoke With An Erection (S76)
From: icohen on 98-07-11
Joe woke up one morning and looked
for his wife, but his
wife wasn't there. She
had awakened and was preparing
breakfast in the kitchen.
Joe was afraid he might spoil
things by getting up, so he
called his little boy and sent
this note
The Tent Pole Is
Up,
The Canvas Is Spread,
The Hell With Breakfast,
Come Back To Bed.
The wife answered the note and
sent it back by the boy.
It read:
Take The Tent Pole
Down,
Put The Canvas
Away,
The Monkey Had
A Hemorrhage,
No Circus Today.
So he sent another note down. It read:
The Tent Pole's
Still Up,
And The Canvas
Still Spread,
So Drop What You're
Doing,
And Come Give Me
Some Head.
To which she replied:
I'm Sure That Your
Pole's
The Best In The
Land.
But I'm Busy Right
Now,
So Do It By Hand!

Subj: Reincarnation,
By Wallace McRae (S110)
From: mbucher on 99-03-09
What is reincarnation? A cowboy
asked his friend.
It starts, his old pal told
him, when your life
comes to an end.
They wash your neck and comb
your hair and clean your
fingernails.
And put you in a padded box
away from life's travails.
The box and you goes in a hole
that's been dug in the ground.
Reincarnation starts in when
you're planted neath that mound.
Them clods melt down, just like
the box, and you who is inside.
And that's when you begin your
transformation ride.
And in a while the grass will
grow upon your rendered mound,
Until some day, upon that spot,
a lonely flower is found.
And then a horse may wander
by and graze upon that flower
That once was you, and now has
become your vegetated bower.
Now, the flower that the horse
done eat, along
with his other
feed,
Makes bone and fat and muscle
essential to the steed.
But there's a part that he can't
use and so it passes through.
And there it lies upon the ground,
this thing that once was you.
And if perchance, I should pass
by and see this on the ground,
I'll stop awhile and ponder
at this object that I've found.
I'll think about Reincarnation
and life and death and such,
And come away concludin', why,
you ain't changed all that much.

Subj: Computer
Haiku (S74)
From: SSwitzer on 98-06-29
(See 'If
Error Messages Were In Haiku' in COMPUTERS4)
In Japan, they have replaced
the impersonal and unhelpful
Microsoft error messages with
Haiku poetry messages. Haiku
poetry has strict construction
rules - each poem has only
17 syllables; 5 syllables in
the first line, 7 in the second
line, 5 in the third line.
They are used to communicate a
timeless message, often achieving
a wistful, yearning and
powerful insight through extreme
brevity. Here are 16 actual
error messages from Japan.
A file that big?
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.
The Web site you seek
cannot be located,
but endless others exist
Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent, and reboot.
Order shall return.
ABORTED effort:
Close all that you have.
You ask far too much.
First snow, then silence.
This thousand dollar screen
dies so beautifully.
With searching comes loss
and the presence of absence:
"My Novel" not found.
The Tao that is seen
is not the true Tao, until
you bring fresh toner.
Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.
Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.
A crash reduces
your expensive computer
to a simple stone.
Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working
'Windows' is like that.
Three things are certain:
Death, taxes, and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.
You step in the stream,
but the water has moved on.
This page is not here.
Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky,
But we never will.
Having been erased,
the document you're seeking
must now be retyped.
Rather than a beep
or a rude error message,
these words: "File not found."
Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.

Subj: My First
Time (S288)
From: Puneet385 on 8/1/2002
The sky was dark
The moon was high
All alone just she and
I
Her hair was soft
Her eyes were blue
I knew just what
She wanted to do
Her skin so soft
Her legs so fine
I ran my fingers
Down her spine
I didn't know how
But I tried my best
I started by placing
My hands on her breast
I remember my fear
My fast beating heart
But slowly she spread
Her legs apart
And when I did it
I felt no shame
All at once
The white stuff came
At last it's finished
It's all over now
My first time ever
At milking a cow.....
I know what you were thinking!!!
Get your mind out of the gutter!!!!
Second version
Her eyes were blue
I knew just what
She wanted to do
Her skin so soft
Her legs so fine
I ran my fingers

I remember my fear
My fast beating heart
But slowly she spread
Her legs apart
And when I did it

Warm eyes, wet lips
Gently touch my finger tips
Soft sighs, silky hair
Longing for me to touch her

Urgent needs of one so sweet
Bring me quickly to my feet
The night is warm, there is

It's my turn to take the dog

Subj: Poetry
Contest (S21, S404 - quotes3)
From: TNKRTEACH on 97-06-17
and
From: LABLaughsAdult on 10/7/2004
The finals of the National Poetry
Contest last year came
down to two finalists.
One was a Duke University Law
School graduate from an upper
crust family; well-bred,
well-connected, and all that
goes with it.
The other finalist was a redneck from Southeast Alabama A?M.
The rules of the contest required
each finalist to compose
a four line poem in one minute
or less, and the poem had to
contain the word "Timbuktu".
The Duke graduate went first.
About thrity seconds after the
clock started he jumped up
and recited the following poem:
"Slowly across
the desert sand
Trekked
the dusty caravan.
Men
on camels, two by two
Destination
-- Timbuktu."
The audience went wild!!
How, they wondered could the redneck
top that?! The clock
started again and the redneck sat in
silent thought. Finally,
in the last few seconds, he jumped
and recited:
"Tim and me,
a-huntin' went.
Met
three whores in a pop-up tent.
They
was three, we was two,
So
I bucked one and Timbuktu."

I did not do that
Starr-You-Are.
Did you smile?
Did you flirt?
Did you peek
Beneath her skirt?
And did you tell
the girl to lie
When called upon
To testify?
I do not like you
Starr-You-Are --
I think that you
Have gone too far.
I will not answer
Any more --
Perhaps I will go
Start a war!
The public's easy
To distract --
When bombs are
Falling on Iraq!

Subj: Dr.
Seuss Teaches About Computers (S290)
From: Scott's Joke Archive on 5/31/97
and
From: Joke-Of-The-Day on 8/19/2002
(Also see 'Why
Computers Crash! By Dr. Seuss' in Comp-supp)
If Dr. Seuss Wrote Technical
Manuals
If a packet hits a pocket on
a socket on a port,
and the bus is interrupted as
a very last resort,
and the address of the memory
makes your floppy disk abort,
the socket packet pocket has
an error to report.
If your cursor finds a menu item
followed by a dash,
and the double clicking icons
put your window in the trash,
and your data is corrupted 'cause
the index doesn't hash,
then your situation's hopeless
and your system's gonna crash.
If the label on your cable on
the gable at your house
says the network is connected
to the button on your mouse,
but your packets want to tunnel
to another protocol,
that's repeatedly rejectd by
the printer down the hall.
And your screen is all distorted
by the side effects of gauss,
so your icons in the window
are as wavy as a souse,
then you may as well reboot
and go out with a bang,
'cause as sure as I'm a poet,
the sucker's gonna hang!
When the copy of your floppy's
getting sloppy on the disk,
and the microcode instructions
cause unnecessary RISC,
then you have to flash your
memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM,
quickly turn off your computer
and be sure to tell your mom!

Subj: Dr.
Ruth Meets Dr. Seuss...
..........From:
Scott's Joke Archive on 5/31/97
(Inspired by Green Eggs and Ham)
Dear Cathy was a girl who said
She loved a boy named Eager
Ed.
And much as dear Ed tried and
tried
She just would not have sex
outside.
"I only want sex in a bed.
That's all I want, oh eager
Ed."
But Ed was a persistent guy
Who would not let the matter
lie.
"Would you, could you in a boat?
Would you, could you with a
goat?"
"I would not, could not in a
boat.
I would not, could not with
a goat.
I find it best upon dry land.
And animals! You disgusting
man!
I only want sex in a bed.
That's all I want, oh eager
Ed."
But not discouraged was our friend
Ed.
"I know I can get her out of
bed.
Would you, could you on a train?
Would you, could you in the
rain?"
"I would not, could not on a
train.
I would not, could not in the
rain.
Of Amtrak I have had my fill.
If I get wet I'll catch a chill.
I only want sex in a bed.
That's all I want, oh eager
Ed."
And still dear Ed was not deterred.
Though her resistance still
endured.
"Would you, could you in a car?
Would you, could you in a bar?"
"I would not, could not in a
car.
I would not, could not in a
bar.
I fear I like my privacy
And motion sickness vexes me.
I only want sex in a bed.
That's all I want, oh eager
Ed."
"Would you, could you in a park?
We could go there after dark.
The slide would be the perfect
place.
And nobody would see your face."
"I would not, could not in a
park.
Not even if it's after dark.
This whole discussion bothers
me-
Why next, you will suggest a
tree!
I only want sex in a bed.
That's all I want, oh eager
Ed."
"A tree is not a bad suggestion-
It even gave me an erection.
Would you, could you in a tree?
Would you, could you just for
me?"
"I would not, could not in a
tree.
I will not have sex there, you
see.
I would not, could not in a
boat
And certainly not with a goat.
I would not, could not on a
train.
I would not, could not in the
rain.
I would not, could not in the
car.
And definitely not in a bar.
Not in a park, not in a tree.
Not on your life, Ed, let me
be!
I only want sex in a bed.
That's all I want, oh eager
Ed."
"All I ask, oh Cathy mine
To make me happy, just one time.
Try it just this once for me
and You will like it. Wait and
see!"
"Ok, ok, since you persist.
Just one time only, I insist.
Just once we will have sex outside.
Then at least I will have tried."
And so they did it that same
night.
And Cathy found that Ed was
right.
"From now on, I have changed
my view.
And wild sex I will pursue.
And I will try it in a park,
In daylight too, as well as
dark.
And I will try it in a tree.
(Though I may fall and scrape
my knee.)
And in a car, and on a train
And in a bar, and in the rain.
And maybe even on a boat,
Though never ever with a goat.
For now I like wild sex, you
see
And new adventures wait for
me!"
THE END.

How about these.... The nursery
rhyme Ring Around the Rosey
is a rhyme about
the plague. Infected people with the
plague would get
red circular sores ("Ring around the
rosey..."), these
sores would smell very badly so common
folks would put
flowers on their bodies somewhere
(inconspicuously),
so that it would cover the smell of
the sores ("...a
pocket full of poseys ..."), People who
died from the plague
would be burned so as to reduce the
possible spread
of the disease ("...ashes, ashes, we all
fall down!")
Dr. Seuss pronounced "Seuss" such that it rhymed with "rejoice."

In science one tries to tell
people, in such a way as to
be understood by everyone, something
that no one ever knew
before. But in poetry, it's
the exact opposite.
