Skinny Shakespeare Sonnet by DragonSkulls
Laughter writing prompt entry

Warning: The author has noted that this contains the highest level of language.

Upon the beach beneath the summer skies,
a bully sauntered up, so big and buff.
In front of my dear lass he mocked my size,
then kicked hot sand into my face and ruff.

I tried to stand my ground to no avail.
He pushed me down like waving off a fart.
My maiden saw that I could not prevail,
then took his arm while stepping on my heart.

But from that shame I worked until it burned,
until I too was muscular and stout.
A silence filled the beach when I returned
and there I knocked that sorry bastard out.

My maiden begged, "Can we let bygones pass?"
To rhyme, I told that bitch to kiss an ass.


 


Writing Prompt
Write a poem of any type that makes your reader laugh.

Author Notes
There was a Charles Atlas cartoon ad many years ago that had a scenario close to this in it.

A ruff is the fluffy neck piece some wore back then.
