A House Is Not A Home (from MySpace)

Current mood: depraved

Category: Writing and Poetry


Posted by Deeplip last September on the Delicious Demon message board:


Love your polls and definitions and add-a-line features! Would you consider adding another category to the website?

Parodies are fun to read and challenging to write*. If we restrict ourselves to parodying each other's work, we won't run the risk of being sued. May I share one of mine? It was inspired by a poem posted by Judith Schuddeboom.


OUR LITTLE COOKIE (Judith Schuddeboom)

Our little Cookie
so cute and so bright.
She knocks on the porch door
to come home every night.
So loving and comforting,
she's everyone's delight.
When she rolls in the dirt, on the stoop or the rug,
you can't resist picking her up for a hug.
Her comforter and newspapers are favorites.
She purrs like an engine unleashed.
She has so much trustin those huge, round, pretty eyes,
She delights in raw chicken---her "Thanksgiving feast."
She's dainty, and gentle, and silly, and clever.
She is part of our lives
And will remain there Forever.

A HOME WITHOUT A CAT IS JUST A HOUSE



MY LITTLE NOOKY (Deeplip)


My little Nooky so cute and so tight.
She's just what you'd want
to come home to at night.
So loving and comforting,
She'd be your delight.
On the floor, in the tub, on the stoop or the rug,
you can't resist laying her down for a fug.
Her vibrator and The London Review of Books are favorites.
She purrs like an engine unleashed.
No dust, and no rustand to no one's surprise,
She tastes just like chicken---A "Thanksgiving feast."
She's completely rebuilt, so cunning (!) and clever.
She's just what you need
And will remain so Forever.


A HOME WITHOUT A PUSSY IS JUST A HOUSE
