These are entries to a Washington Post competition asking for a rhyme with the most romantic first line... but the least romantic second line:
Love may be beautiful, love may be bliss But I only slept with you because I was pissed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- Of loving beauty you float with grace If only you could hide your face.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kind, intelligent, loving and hot; This describes everything you are not.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- I want to feel your sweet embrace But don't take that paper bag off of your face.
----------------------------------------------------------------------- I love your smile, your face, and your eyes - Damn, I'm good at telling lies!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife: Marrying you screwed up my life.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- My feelings for you no words can tell, Except for maybe "go to hell!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- What inspired this amorous rhyme? Two parts vodka and one part lime
"To be civilized is to restrain the ability to commit mayhem. To be incapable of committing mayhem is not the mark of the civilized, merely the domesticated." - Trefor Thomas
