Assault Similes

Assault Similes

A Poem by Rita L. Sev
"

:)

"

I’m sure that no one’s told you,

but you really ought to know ~

you’re as warm and as appealing

as the yellowest of snow;

your ignorance surpasses

cell phones ringing at a wake;

your conversation hearkens back

to Eve’s chat with the snake;

whenever someone asks

if you possess rapier wit,

I say that you’re as sharp

as a banana in a split;

your traits are as attractive

as old Granny Gert undressed;

a comb for Mr. Clean would best describe your usefulness ;

your personality is like

a worn out hockey puck;

it’s time for you to know the truth ~

you grade A, top notch schmuck.

Rita, not something I would expect out of you, but you have said it so wonderfully loud and poetic. Nice one my friend.
