Quotes about popeye, page 3
Popeye The Sailorman
First time, when dating with your lady love
before you embark onto a ship of LOVE
make sure, you can swim back alone to the shores,
If abandoned in a wreck, as your dreams are belied en-route
because, your voyage is full of risks
tossed high and low through hidden rocks
off the banks, dark and direction-less
day and night with she-sickness
sharks, whales and poisonous snakes
silently closeting the hull under the waves
you need to keep the lady
in good humour and enchanted
with a fatty purse, on a spending melee
to please her utmost, with all she wanted
in mid sea, she may demand
a bunch of flowers or a pair of new sandals

Garden Partay!
Garden Partay! ! !
Edward Iacona
I know that names of products
May often be ostentatious.
But, I never thought that packs of seeds
Could also be so salacious.
Varieties mentioned here are real.
And, this is what I think;
Many gardeners and farmers
Must enjoy an earthy wink....
To make my point I'll put these names
In quotes or maybe in italic.
And lay aside the obvious view that
Some veggies look quite phallic.
There is no doubt that corn
Is known to be nutritious

0005 The anvil of his mind
He’s a regular on the TV arts review slot;
sitting there waiting his turn to speak,
he projects plainspoken ordinary man,
working class with intelligence;
more mouth, and he’d be
a trades union official;
less, and he’d be one of the invisible
guys in the back room, on the shop floor
who mend it for you, beautifully, and on time,
loving their craft, their skills;
he’s present here as writer-critic.
waiting, attentive, business-like,
his sleeves rolled up as if they always are,
his forearms are as thick as Popeye’s;
you almost look for the anchor tattoo; .
no pipes on the TV set of course these days..
and as he sits he holds his arms and elbows

50's And 60's Weird TV On Channel 3
I think I must be seeing things
Before me stand the four of kings,
They shuffle when the Bishop brings
Annette upon nine raven wings
And Beanie rides a sea serpent
And wonders where the yellow went;
I go to pay the next day's rent,
Where have they taken my new tent?
The bandstand kids look like Dick Clark,
Turn on the lights, I'm in the dark,
I'm standing in Grand Central Park,
A worm has caught a purple lark
And Kookie has run out of combs
So rents out rooms in old maid's homes,
He has B.O. where ere he roams
So buys some spray and sells his tomes,

Bel Canto
The sun is high, the seaside air is sharp,
And salty light reveals the Mayan School.
The Irish hope their names are on the harp,
We see the sheep's advertisement for wool,
Boulders are here, to throw against a tarp,
From which comes bursting forth a puzzled mule.
Perceval seizes it and mounts it, then
The blood-dimmed tide recedes and then comes in again.
Fateful connections that we make to things
Whose functioning's oblivious to our lives!
How sidewise news of light from darkness springs,
How blue bees buzz from big blooms back to hives
And make the honey while the queen bee sings
Leadbelly in arrangements by Burl Ives—
How long ago I saw the misted pine trees
And hoped, no matter how, to get them into poetry!
