What the Folk!

Ok, so lately we've been seeing quite a few poems about the guys pop up, and I thought it would be good to have a place to keep them all

Anybody who has written or found some sort of poetry about FOTC, feel free to post here!

I'm so excited! I enjoy poetry, I can't write it but I love to read it. Go, girls (and guys) go!

Yay I've been going back and forth between the discussion threads looking for new poetry.

Here's mine:

A tall, doe-eyed fellow from Welly
Sets butterflies loose in my belly
A sprinkle of scruff
Is just the right stuff
To turn a girl's knees into jelly


I really got inspired to write some more poetry now... I used to all the time when I was younger, but then I sort of just stopped for no reason. I guess Bret is my muse

Wrote one for Murray:

Leads the band meetings
Had a budgie but it died
He likes leggy blondes

Not very good, but it's been years since I wrote one. It's harder than I remember. Wanted a line about ginger balls, but it ended up being too many syllables.

Loved that, Faith

I don't even know how to write a haiku

Haikus are 3 lines long. First line has 5 syllables, second 7 syllables, and the third 5 again. They're fun to write but hard because they are short, so you have to get creative.

I will try tomorrow in work....

Thanks Faith. I'll give it a whirl later

I call this... "Bret's Eyes" (I believe this was inspired while looking at that really close-up/intense shot you find frequently on the Bret Photo Thread. You know the one?)

There once was a man named Bret
Whose eyes were a *beautiful* set.
A mixture of fire,
And loving desire,
No woman could ever forget!


Simply titled: "JEMAINE."
Jemaine's black glasses are square,
And a similar hue to his hair.
With brown eyes (or green)
(If you know what I mean)
All we can do is stare.

I really need pictures to better convey the imagery....


NOW, for haikus! Yeah!

BRET:
All hail the Boom King,
The Rhymenoceros, and of course,
The Prince of Parties.

JEMAINE:
Also Big J, the
Hiphopopotamus, and
My favorite, "Snake Hips."

Albi The Racist Dragon-Inspired
Albi was racist.
He liked to burn small children.
It's all settled now.
continuation/clarification
See Albi and the
Badly burnt Albanian boy
Enjoy Marmalade.

Raven:

My first haiku (I hope):

A sight for sore eyes
Greater still what lies beneath
You guys make me laugh

Encore! Encore! Biscuit and Raven, I'm impressed! Beautiful!

Nice one, biscuit!! Yours is all meaningful and heartfelt. I love it.

Bret and Jemaine have
Given us so much joy as
Flight of the Conchords.


New Zealand's fourth most
Popular digi-bongo-
Acapella-rap

Funk-comedy-folk
Duo. Quite a mouthful, but
They are so worth it.

Yeah, us chicks dig that sensitive, poetical sh*t


My favourite song:

You look to your left
It’s such a beautiful sight
Perfect harmony

Biscuit: Sigh,... perfect.

(BDS, one of my favorites too)

Raven: I'm still cracking up over Albi, Parts 1 and 2! Are 3, 4 & 5 still in the works?

Thank you, Non-ob:)

I'm enjoying this whole haiku thing. The one about BDS uses my favourite lines (the ones I always start singing at) to describe how Jem looks at Bret before they start singing:)

And another one:

Where would he go to
If he could jet anywhere?
