Entertainment, Tonight!

While I've never been interested in the day-to-day affairs of celebrities, I don't feel as much angst toward them as this poem might lead one to think.  Homophones.


Entertainment, Tonight!


Sweater-vested
Absolutions
Sweat or vested
Ab solutions
A dressing-up
Of vacancies
Addressing up
Of vacant scenes
Oh so charming
In blazing glitter
Oh such harm in
Emblazing litter
Pretty please
Let me be leaving
Pretty pleas
Left me believing
In the skinny jeans
From the magazines

The Gambler

I'm not sold on the title, and it's becoming more difficult to come up with new homophones.  For the record, I don't know if the Sauk tribe have any casinos.

The Gambler

A fool, loaded
A fully-loaded
Lucky surge
Look, he's urged
To wind down right
Too wined, downright
Lost his shoes
Lost issues
Betting it all
Bedding a tall
Black rum
Blah, crumbs
Of more to lose
Adventure Las Vegas
Of mores too loose
I'd venture a vague guess
Lost more than the Sauks
Lost more than the socks
And barefoot, ventured home

Vagabond

backwards and forwards.   I'm getting a little bored with these, I find the homophone pieces much more fun.


Vagabond


Lowness
Necessitates vagrancy
What does one say
To so many flaws?
Tooth to nail
Dishevelment.
Understand?
Assume,
Just don't judge.
Dont' just assume
Understand:
Dishevelment,
Nail to tooth,
Flaws many.
So to say,
One does what
Vagrancy necessitates;
Lowness

The Celebrated One

lines are homophonic or simple rhyming,   it might need a little polish, but for now I like it.  



The Celebrated One


I almost said hello
(our eyes did not meet)
I almost sat hollow
Lockets at your feet
Where with all the awed
Gathered in a heap
Wherewithal, the odd
Vanity we keep
Fallen higher
Unchecked gyres
Fall in, "Hi," or
Well, not quite

While passing on the street
I almost said hello,
But our eyes did not meet
