Title: I'm often held, yet rarely touched
Post by Guest on Nov 11^th, 2003, 2:37am

Here's an oldie but a goodie:

I'm often held, yet rarely touched;
I'm always wet, yet never rust;
I'm sometimes wagged and sometimes bit;
To use me well, you must have wit.

When angry then a lashing do
Or forked if not to be true

I'm sorry, but "rarely touched"? Mine is in constant contact with it's enclosing cavity.

A touching little joke you say
Then quick into the cheek I stray
And yet enclosing cavity
Does cause a true disparity
To which an answer is not spied
I fear it leaves me trully tied.

Better than being never held, and very touched. ;D

The Rolling Stones - imagine this,
Or Gene Simmons, with a Kiss?
A deli sandwich, served on rye,
A native language, that's no lie.
