Poem Number 4730
Confucius said
Make sure you live long enough
to receive Death's kiss.
Commentary:
...or at least he could have said it...?
-blunder
-------
Did Confucius kiss?
Evidence points otherwise.
Unrequited life.
-e.w.m.f.
-------
You can't read, nor write
Still, if you live long enough
You'll receive Deaths kiss
(Or do you think you're immortal?)
-blunder-
-------
Confucius said
Hold thine tongue thou imbecile
For death does not french
-sancho panza
-------
What I meant to say:
Confucius not a lover
therefore,he never died.
(-and yeah,I do think I'm immortal,though I have been a lover,and kissed.)
-e.w.m.f.
-------
*
immortality
could bring to me new body
probably worse--used
WHOIAM
-------
immortality
can't promise regrowth of limbs
or loss of an eye
-speed bump-
.oeg
-------
One fine future day
You will meet the Grim Reaper
Or tomorrow night
--
Confucius said:
Whenever he picks you up
It's inconvenient
-blunder-
-------
Confucius said
Man with hearing aid turned off
Will not hear deaths knock
-------
The Grim Reaper said
Come with me Confucius
Lips puckered, he died
-horatio
-------
The Grim Reaper said:
"Come with me"? If there's a place,
then Confucius lives!
-------
Dear sancho panza,
I add punch to your stanza:
"gazebo veranda"!
-------
When your time is up,
It's no use to take 'Time out',
Confucius said.
-blunder-
-------
When your time is up,
your time is not down,or out.
Duality gone.
(I SAID THIS ONE!)
-------
People put words in
poor old Confucius' mouth.
but he's dead....don't mind!
-------
It looks confusing
But surely I spoke wise words
Said Confucius
-blunder-
-------
Confucius said:
If it wasn't for crimes, we'd
need no punishment.
(And believe it or not, he really said it!)
-blunder-
-------
Confucius last words were, "AAAAH! GET OFF MY HEAD! YOU'RE STANDING ON MY DAMN HEAD! WHY ARE DOING THAT? IT HURTS!"
-------
...on the contrary,
Confucius is not dead,
Wise words forever!
-jorstruly-
(and besides he never shouted out loud)
