Every poet is a thief

[WildHonee]

In that Larry post, he was quite an inspiration! So here's a whole thread for you to write your U2 poems. I'm so embarrassed by mine, but

Here are the poems posted so far:

WildHonee:
I want to marry Larry
he is not too hairy,
and not at all scary.
Marry marry marry meee.
I want to marry Larry
I don't want Barry,
I don't want...um...Terry
Larry, marry marry marry me.


Deathbear's Fly Girl:
Oh Larry the great
Can we pro-create?
You know you want me so
You know we just flow

I want to be
The seat on your bike
The sexy haven of warmth
That I very much like

Kiss me with passion
Ann who?
She knows nothing about fasion

mad1:
Larry and Christine and a bunch of beers
Larry proposes, now Christine's in tears
Larry then hands her this beautiful ring
While behind them both, the other 3 sing

Larry and Christine marry in Eire
Larry then chooses the bike he'll hire
Larry grabs Christine and whisks her away
And off they go, happily-ever-after, HOORAY!!!!!!

You would not imagine how proud of this I am! I hope I don't get sued for using song titles. Here?s my *ultimate* Bono poem: *ahem*

?Bono is Adonis? ~Mona~

I would show him my Wild Horses and Mysterious Ways.
I would bring him from faraway to so close and make him Stay.
Until the End of the World, I?d love that Mofo I?m not So Cruel.
And I?d ask his Babyface if I can be a Station for his Zoo.

I would be his Wild Honey until he?s Numb
I would stop the PLEBA War and I?D be the only One.
Until New Year?s Day, I?d fill him up with such Pride,
be his Angel of Harlem even Under a Blood Red Sky.

I?d wear that Velvet Dress and my Spanish Eyes.
I?d wear that Velvet Dress for his Irish eyes.

Chorus:
I wanna
get Bono in a sauna.
Bono is
Adonis.

I would Elevate him to make a Beautiful Day.
I would be his Sweetest Thing in the dirtiest of Dirty Days.
I Will Follow him on the Last Day on Earth, so strong is my Desire.
In the Name of Love I?ll be his Unforgettable Fire.

I?d wear that Velvet Dress and my Spanish Eyes.
I?d wear that Velvet Dress for his Irish eyes.

Chorus: (everybody sing!)
I wanna
get Bono in a sauna.
Bono is
Adonis.

*bow* I think I have heat stroke.

lol! thanks! I'm so strange!

Ok I'll stop now.

I'm gonna send my song to Bono and have them make music to it and sing it. It'll make them FAMOUS. O wait they already are....

I'm no Mona or Mrs Edge, but I'm just bored today-so

My Ode To Edge

Oh Edge, may I call you Dave
I'd just die to be your love slave
How you put me in a trance
God you're so sexy in those sequin pants
I'm no belly dancer
But if you'd call me, I'd answer
You could Edge-ucate my mind, and play me a tune
Looking into your green eyes, surely I'd swoon
You're so kind, sweet, and humble
Just one kiss from you and I'd crumble
And in that numbered shirt, you'd be one tasty dessert
My guitar God and hero
please don't think I'm a zero!

 

[Sunrazor]

LMAO!!! I LOVE this thread.

Unfortunately, I only write free-verse and haikus.
Here are a couple of the latter.

Bono in leather.
Goddamn, that man is sexy!
Take a cold shower.

Agh! Look at Bono!
For some reason, he is bald.
He scares small children.

Aaannnd here's a couple free verse. Not humor, sorry.
The first is about my Philly Popmart experience, which was my first U2 concert, and my first rock concert ever. I was 14.
The second is about U2's lyrics, and what they do to me.
Enjoy.


June 8, 1997 - Febuary 5, 2001

She went to them then
Heart beating in her chest like a frightened bird
And as she walked the city rose around her
"Come," it said.
"Come to me and let me show you yourself
Your reflection in the faces of flesh and of glass
Come to me, be my jewel and darling."

She smiled and walked on
Walked towards the hum of life
The hum of anticipation and purpose
Towards the place where they would make their cathedral
Their holy ground

Then all was noise and confusion
And a great suffocating crush
She turned in a sea of faces
A wonderful madness suffusing them with a neon glow
Hands took her, pressed her onward
The noise pressed down, hard and hot
Then, through it all
A single stabbing sound
A chime of angels or of devils, none could say
It lifted her
Pushed through her
Caressing and clawing at her brain

She screamed and could not hear it
She fell and could not feel it
It pummeled her chest until her heart matched its rhythm

But there was no pain
She gave herself willingly
Lifted her voice with a thousand others
A song of joy
A song of love
A song for all to take away with them
To treasure and to share
To have and to hold

The song soared upward again
Filling and completing her
Her last shreds of sanity dissolved
She let go of herself
As the song bore her away
On wings that glittered
Like guitar strings


Words

Sometimes, your words say too much
Sometimes, they don't say enough
Sometimes, it's what they don't say
That's important
Now and then, your words are like broken clocks
They don't follow the rules
And I don't know what to do with them
Your words can put me on a steel table
Under bright lights
Cut me open
And show me things even I've never seen
And your words can be a warm ocean
Soft and gently moving
Drifting, and then
I'm dreaming

My Ode To Larry

Oh how I love you Larry
Words can not express
I even thought you were hot in a dress
Your beauty just leaves me speechless and numb
And may I just say you have a nice bum!
Those eyes, that smile, that incredible chest
Just one night with you and I'd surely be blessed.
Just take me for a ride on your Harley and give me a kiss
To have some lovin' from you would be sheer bliss
Oh how you drive me mad with desire
Larry when I look at you I'm on fire!

 

[Gina Marie]

Cause once is not enough

Ode to Larry Part 2

Oh Larry, you're shy and so am I
We belong together, and that's no lie
I'd massage your aching back, hands, and feet
Bono, Edge, and Adam would just have to take a back seat
I'd beat up Henry Rollins for you
I'd wipe the floor with him and he'd be through
I know you're an Elvis fan, so let me be your teddy bear
Just wrap those gorgeous arms around me and lead me anywhere
You can even inject me w/some bull's blood, that'd be OK
Just please be gentle-I just know that's your way
I know you hate small talk, so there wouldn't be much talking
Cause I'd just be letting my fingers do the walking!

Bono says 'Honee....
You make me laugh'
Honee says thanks
And gives him a kiss
But Bono moves forth
To give her some bliss!!!!!

Here it is, what we've all been waiting for: U2 Haikus.

1.
Bono sings loud at me
Many lights reflect off shades
Prance, stocky man, prance!

2.
Beanie on his head
Numbered shirts telling secrets:
Help! Singer after me!

3.
Jazz man bass man cool
Chin in air, like proud house cat
Watching others work.

4.
Blond guy in back row
Hit things with sticks, Bang! bang!
It cool: chicks dig him.

5.
Bono dancing wild
Oops, lead singer fall off big stage
Edge laughs: ha ha ha.

6.
Larry working hard
Struggling with look on face
Hey! F.O.A.D.

7.
PLEBA posting pics
Bono find crazy girls room
Larry takes laptop.

8.
McGuinness is sad
No PLEBA girls post his pic
He start "Paul" thread.

9.
Macphisto red devil
Disco geshia on tall shoes
Smudgy kisses time!

10.
I am lead singer!
Asprin bottle is tough,
Time to call The Edge.

-Bluey San.


------------------
"Yeah, Bono's a nice bunch of guys" - The Edge.

[littleheartsuitcase]

*laughs hard* Ahhh, these poems are so great!!

I love the haikus, blueeyes!

 

[Mrs. Edge]

Wow!!! I am totally blown away by all this. The haikus were all hilarious!

Gina Marie, I loved your poems, but why does Larry rate 2 poems and Edge only one??!!

One thing I have NEVER been able to write is poetry of any kind, especially the kind of stuff Sunrazor writes with all that imagery.

What amazing talents we have in this forum!

"Thanks!" - Mrs. Edge to The Edge in 1997

"Thanks very much!" - Mrs. Edge to The Edge in 2001, her level of eloquence having improved considerably...

*wipes tears away* Bluey, can I PLEASE put those on my site?
In fact, everyone, can I just put ALL the poems here on my site? I'll make a special PLEBA Girls section.
Let me know if you want me to keep my grubby little hands off thy stuff.

Sure Sunrazor-you can put mine on your site if you want to-all I ask for is my lil'writers credit! My complete versions, plus my Bono and Adam odes, are in my own posted topics. and btw-I just love that Bono quote in your sig-truer words cannot be spoken, IMO-I love that Psalms book-great for when you're feeling down-and even when you're not!

 

[Sunrazor]

Thanks, Gina! Your's will be in the next update. (which is looking like later tonight). Now I just need the OK from everyone else.

Just took a lil' quick peak at your site-you are quite talented and creative, it seems to me. maybe you should post a separate topic asking the others for their permission-it seems pretty slow here today-and then they'd see it. a PLEBA drool section for your site sounds good!
