    da DA da da DA (b)

    And they're supposed to be risqué. They're easy and fun. Mine are mostly too, um, earthy to post, though. ;-)
    Limerick and I don't agree i could never write one i have no idea why
    i don't get the concept and god knows i have tried
    risky however is everywhere it depends how one perceives it though
    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly

    Ms. Cacian's a lady I know;
    She cannot write a Limerick, though.
    She's just not satisfied
    (Though God knows that she's tried),
    For risqué rhythms lead her to woe.

    That's how you do it.

    I am a reader and critic of prose. I've read a lot of poetry, but aside from epic poems and verse drama, I don't pretend to have much insight about it. I love to write metered doggerel though, and sometimes little epigrams. But I don't mistake them for anything other than games.

    Ultimately, I am looking for a work of art that speaks to me... and continues to speak to me over time.
    With paintings, I look, but don't hear
    To me, they say little, I fear.
    Neither do I look
    At an audio book,
    At least not while trying to steer.

    I'm sure some artists have tried adding sound tracks or sound effects to their paintings -- animators certainly have. It might add to the art museum experience if paintings spoke to you. Some might shill for themselves: "Hey! Psst! Hey you! Over here! Check me out, I'm naked."

    Perhaps "Young Princesse" (from Stluke's offerings above) could simply bark.

    nice poem by they way
    it speaks and does not shout

    to me nudity in art shouts louder then anything
    it is in case one does not want to look so nude exposes ways to attract an audience
    how else the artist thinks?
    an artist thinks i get to be looked at for as long as i maintain nude evposes
    i guess i that is the trick.

    the other thing about art is that it must not should not and could not talk
    to look we use our eyes and to think we use imagination
    if art spoke we would not listen because no matter what it would say it would contradict the painting it is offering us to look at
    art therefore does not speak or it will defeat the meek.
    the idea is to baffle without sound
    nudity does not baffle but numbs even though is shouts.
    cruelty?
    i say it is nudity it exposes hilarity because even though it shouts those who can't hear it hear it and those who can can't.
