Just a fun poem at my siblings' expense.
Siblings
by Bill Schott
My childhood found me, last of six,
Proceeded by my siblings; Always getting slaps and kicks, Resulting from their quibblings. My eldest sister, muscle-maid. left to join the Army; She returned, Fourragered, still want-ing to harm me. Oldest brother, Brainiac, first to go to college; Left, and he's not coming back, until we all apologize to him for not being as smart. My second oldest sister was everybody's "next one"; She boinked the football team because she enjoyed the sex fun. My next brother, "juvenile delinquent" he was called; Now he's changed his living-style, which I must applaud. My other bro, to whom I am two years to his junior; Is as happy as a clam, Living as a Soon-ior (Sooner, Ok? Oklahoma. Gimme a break.) I was always scribbling bad things, like above, about my childhood siblings, whom, of course, I love. |

All mistakes are, naturally, intentional. Fourragère (for-a-shay) is a shoulder decoration worn on some military uniforms. I've made it a verb, incorrectly, using poetic license. While I had my license out, I put an 's' on quibbling, so it would rhyme better. My siblings' faults are exaggerated (wink). Thanks to martyleo for the neat picture.
