Filius flashes, eleison crashes
and Jericho smashes again
Titular washes, old men in galoshes
are pishing and toshing til ten
Madrigal masses move on through molasses
while half-witted lasses shake tins
Stoned under mosses, thirteen gilded josses
count all of our losses as wins
singing
kyrie, kyrie, Kylie's sainted arse
a Sufi speculates:
this too shall pass
It could be worse

biblical alliteration, saint consonance would be proud of
pishing is such a good word

There really isn't enough pishing in poetry.

I'm amazed that I have lived my entire life and read since I was capable and I didn't know HALF the words. Googling now . . .
From the Urban dictionary: toshing 1. the act of giving a rimjob while watching tosh.0.

I'm pretty sure that wasn't what I had in mind :p... and I'm sure Tosh made that one up himself...
"Pish-tosh" is a fairly common -- maybe fairly British/Australian -- way of saying "what a load of bull".

I'm glad you cleared that up. When I searched toshing, I got: 'straightening or making tidy.' likewise, pishing brought up naturalists making calls to birds. I am a redneck, Alabama boy, but I desperately want to widen my appreciation for other cultures, past and present.

And in the final furlong
It's Filius Flash from Madrigal Mass
Leading Titular, then Jericho
By a nose but Sufi's on the inside
Coming up --He's going to pass!
Kyrie is down! So is Kylie's Arse!
And on the line it's Queensland Pish
Out wide!

Oh, and loved your pome! Ooops, mustn't say that! Will put on my best critical hat next time around!

Well bless my bum, it's Pommy Ed
He's gone and got my poem read
And turned it into such a farce
That even Ms Minogue's fine arse
Is ridiculed, how very rude

You can love 'em to death here if you like, this is the "for fun" forum... though I'll never say no to a man in a critical hat.

Now, that's a very canny trick
To speak of arse and bum in rhyme
Respond in verse so 'freakin'' quick,
While these four lines take all my time.
