Your Attention Please

I dangle my participles
fully exposed,
while marks from your ballpoint pen
curl up my toes.
Slovenly structures
and mixed metaphors
scream for attention:
Yes – I want YOURS!

Here I am!  Right under your nose!
How purple must I make my prose?
Must I act like a fool?  Well ok, here goes:




Here are 55 words of foolishness for G-Man and his FF55.  Check it out for yourself.  With Boris Johnson Mayor of London doing the dangle over the Olympics it seemed the perfect subject for a Flash Friday 55.  Here are some other very funny photo-shopped situations with dangling Boris. And thanks to my special friend for the technical support!

  1. I hate it when things are left dangling. Well, most times. Loved the 55 though.

  6. Wonderful! One wonders about Boris's pained expression and the discreet UK flag.
    Boris is great! A breath of fresh air in the stagnant swamp of British politics - except he's running out of mouths to put his feet in . . .
    (I checked out the many danglepics in your link, Mary. Hilarious. Thanks)

  7. That was fun. As is writing purple prose. And rhymes. I love rhymes. They make me feel like a child again.

    1. Thanks Nessa. I think a little childishness is a good thing now and again! Keeps us from taking ourselves too seriously.
