This is so much fun to read--your lines are light and bouncy, the rhymes are amusing. My own hairy hubs has this affliction while I do not (blame the hair). Thanks for making me smile!

The most interesting poem I've ever read about lint, and the sing-songness of your rhyming had my ears in ecstasy. It proves any topic is a good one. This should be a sixer. It's that good! Les

Hey ! You did it again. Marg said lint that's a funny thing to write about.
I explained to her I think she was testing herself,with her gift of rhyme she has
the ability to write a poem about anything and your gift of humor makes the poem humorous. Your foot notes make it sound I could have been right.
That's a first in 60 years.

Great work. Thanks for sharing. Frankeddy

CPJ,
that photo of belly button lint is gross, I hope that' your hubby's and not yours. It's harry. You poem is cleverly written and cheeky. I loved it. You naughty poet. Excellent word structure, great rhyme and effective use of alliteration and metaphor caps off your poem. Your imagery is swell and paints a mental picture in the readers head. My favorite lines are: "Yes it flocks, to feet in socks Through special forms of friction There it goes, between your toes And flaunts all jurisdiction." Thanks so much for sharing your poem that gives the reader pause for reflection. You write very well and I'd recommend you poem to other reviewers. Thanks for sharing and making me ROTFL. You cheeky broad. What's next boogers or snot? Or that crust under your fingernails. Ewe! Keep on making em laugh, my friend. Peace out...Melissa.

Attractive picture there! thats your stomah right...il just assume ;)Wow if you can write such a bouncy creatively fun poem about lint it says lot about your poetry abilities. "Holy moly roly Pollys shitty little devils" is my fav line. Don't think you missed any fine detail to the art of delinting oneself. Gritting teeth included. Damn all this hard work to look good! Form is objectively perfect but don't think you need a comma after "pain-free" and "remnants" is a tricky word when it comes to counting syllables. This is all the constructive criticism I can find. Your poems brighten my
day :) looking forward to your next about........boogers ;) do it

    I shoulda known boogers would be popular. "If you sprinkle when you tinkle, please be neat and wipe the seat" haha ya maybe poop, or ass cream would take the cake
reply by the author on 10-Oct-2011
    Haha...cute.
    Ass cream? Nope...
    It'll be crusters or poop.

Yep, you could write about anything and it would be interesting, if for no other reason than the clever and creative way that you write. I'm not particularly interested in lint, but I'm interested in the way you talk about it and the way you write every other line with a rhyme inside and maintain for eight stanzas such flawless rhythm. You are quite the poet, CloPo. What you've accomplished here is truly remarkable, I think. Yes, lint can be interesting. I'm curious, who did you get to pose for that picture?

Oh, you funny girl, you! I gotta tell you first that the picture is gross, but the kind of gross that makes one quite curious as to what our favorite funny girl has to say. And how did you ever come up with so many clever lines about a subject like lint? The funniest part is the third to last stanza where if one is really a good friend, he or she will just reach over and remove the other's belly lint. You are so funny! And I don't believe your tummy is "much hairier" either.

By the way, I really enjoyed your last PM to me, the one where you discuss the X's and the o's. It is always such a pleasure to hear from you and to get your opinion on those hot actors. I can't wait for your next post. xoxoxo

I liked your whimsical write on lint.

You have proven that any aspect of life seen through a poet's eye can be interesting.

I especially liked:Rolled up dregs, on trouser legs
Are visibly annoying
Not accepted, quite expected
Cling-ons are deploying

Balls of fluff, such pesky stuff
As cotton, remnants gather
Sweaty skin, will chaeuffer in
Each crevice, open slather
