《华盛顿邮报》曾举办一场诗歌比赛,要求参赛者写一首仅有两行且押韵的诗——第一行能多浪漫就多浪漫,第二行能多不浪漫就多不浪漫。无庸置疑,提交上来的当然不乏让人“捧腹大笑”之作。小编在此选登该比赛的一些入选作品,供大家在茶余饭后一乐。^_^ ——Lavender
My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:
Marrying you has 1)screwed up my life.
I see your face when I am dreaming.
That’s why I always wake up screaming.
Kind, intelligent, loving and hot;
This describes everything you are not.
Love may be beautiful, love may be bliss,
But I only slept with you ’cause I was 2)pissed.
I thought that I could love no other—
that is until I met your brother.
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.
I want to feel your sweet embrace;
But don’t take that 3)paper bag off your face.
I love your smile, your face, and your eyes
Damn, I’m good at telling lies!
My love, you take my breath away.
What have you 4)stepped in to smell this way?
My feelings for you no words can tell,
Except for maybe “Go to hell.”
What inspired this 5)amorous rhyme?
Two parts 6)vodka, one part 7)lime.
