Sometimes we seem to forget how simple it is to live.

Barney and the Bed

Barney was one of those characters

that made a town so unique.

A working man with little needs

his missus his kids a beer and a cig.

Now Barney couldn’t drive anymore and

I think in a way he didn’t mind

for Barney dined on liquid gold…

Usually the cheapest case he could find.

A simple man, the junkyard… his career.

Loved regaling with stories as we drove.

For certain, you could tell he loved his Missus,

and he loved the sheeted dance of night.

Now I don’t know if it was the beer or true

but the night in the trailer he and Missus had,

would surely rival any carni ride

as they were thumping and a humping

But he forgot one thing that night

In his haste to get some beer

He had unhooked the trailer for the Missus

And when the humping got to climax…well

The trailer popped up in front!

Now that’s a bedtime story

that I think even God would like.

and Barney laughed all the way home.

And to think, I paid to go to college

for an education in life!

  1. LOL - great bedtime story.  What an image !!!    


  2. "Hi!",

    WOW, and too think I nearly missed this one. 10 hours ago hay.

    As long as Barney got a good ride that's all that counts. LOL! : )

    If it wasn't you can always make her hitch a new one.

    Hilarious!

    WELL DONE!

    Cheers : )

  3. This is so funny, we forget for a moment the poetry within this tale. "The sheeted dance of the night" is pure poetic expression as is the image of Barney's laughter all the way "home." Reminiscent of a nursery rhyme, the expression takes on a new meaning here.

    This is a poetry site, and you have written a poem.

  4. Neonman... this is not great poetry... you have forsaken your true calling and have become an entertainer. Is standup comedy next?

    I often write of Bubba... in the same loving, affectionate way.

    ...of course you have Barney Jeckyl... and I have Bubba Hyde.

  5. Absolutely can't answer...laughing too much!

    (Ours are fashioned down (yes, intended), thank you...rotf.

  6. If that was the trailer, I'd like to see the full length movie....(boom tish)

    very funny Neonman (Those cigars have a lot answer for this week!)

    Alternate titles:

    Canned heat

    Unhitched,while hitched.

    Trailer tryst

    Gimme a brake

    Did the Van move for you?

    A moving experience

    If this van's a-rockin', don't bother knockin (an old car sticker quote)




  7. A thumping and a humping...hahaha

    (you may want to leave off the "g's" at the end of those and add apostrophes...

    a humping and a thumping...

    it's a rare day on the site.

    Hillarious.
