Very Funny.
I enjoyed this poem.
The rhyming structure was great.
The imagery, though a little gross, was great.
Thanks for posting your work.

Hey Curt, this is just so funny ,I laughed my silly head near off my neck. You are one crazy arsed fella... and thats just talking off the cuff, not from the butt.
Back to seriousness, Love your poem/ song/ lyric. I can't wait to hear it recorded to music.. I think you should dedicate it to your Dad... as a reminder of days gone by.
I think there wouldn't be a soul in the world who hasn't scratched or seen someone else scratch their butt, but hey, this character in your poem is way over the top. offering others to take a wiff.. yuck.. I am still laughing, but then, smutty humour always did tickle my fancy. great writing , light hearted, funny, and extremely clever... take care, get the music happening and re edit... can hardly wait. could be the next top no. 1 on the charts.. smiling still, hugs from Melx

Your comments have made my day!
I'm glad this little ditty made you smile Melx! I thought some humor would contrast well against the ever-growing "love" genre so common this season.
I do have a very little bit of musical ability, I am headed to my friend's later today to work out the chords and a refrain if we can. It should be a hoot!
Thanks again for the rating, but esp. for the thoughts.
Sincerely,
Curt

HA!! This is wonderfully gross and funny at the same time, Curt. I can really hear this as a song with its catchy rhymes and masterful flow. Sounds like your dad has his comeback ready and waiting for one of you kids to ask him that, huh? Very fun prose poem.(there's a missing quotation mark after Scratchy's "I got gold inside my ass!) I'd love to hear this as a song.

This poem is so funny that I was laughing out loud while I was reading it. It told a nice story and the rhyming made for a smooth read. The photo was perfect for the presentation as is the gold background. I loved this !

Comment from sierra scribbler
This is awesome! What great rhythm, and rhyming. The whole way through the poem you hold the reader. The story is hilarious, and each word fits perfect. Did you mean to write Off ring as slang, or offering?
Otherwise, this was great.
Thanks for sharing.

Thank you my friend!
I am honored by your rating and comments!
I did mean to write that as "off'ring" for the pronounciation of offering, just for the cadnce while it is sung.
Thanks again!

Very enjoyable story with good flow. Both the story and verses are well structured. I agree that it could work well as a song.

Comment from Kaiyah
After reading this piece i am reminded of how diverse rhyming schemes are. Though there is no audio to this as yet, as i read i can imagine various tunes which may accompany it well.
being written in the context of the first person does add a bit of sincerity to its humour as it is also very descriptive in nature. and i have found myself laughing out loud a few times well as "Scratchy Ass McGee" has both obvious and underlying stories and meanings.
consistency in voice and form has made this a very enjoyable read and i do look forward to more of your comedic poetry as i often find that not many can mix humour with rhyme.

Curt Mongold,
Witty poem that had a lyrical resonance with it. Scratchy-ass McGee is a nasty fella smelling his hands after scratching his ass. The last stanza sums up your funny poem:
So when you hear about someone
who scratches in their ass for fun
recall this tale that you've been told
and ask them if they've found their gold!
Your rhyme and meter are excellent.
Melissa.

Thanks Melisa, it was some fun in between the serious. Something to do in between, ya know?
Thanks again my friend.

Comment from Arkine
~LOL~ I will certainly have to remember that last bit and ask them if they've found their gold. I'd feel sorry for the guy but examining whatever he pulled out? Yeah, that's pretty darn gross. Nice job!
