I Just Don’t Get It

I’m too dense for some things to make sense.

I’m just an old hayseed and not all that bright
So some things get past me and make me up tight.
Like we say after dark when it’s really after light
And slow up and slow down mean the same.  It’s not right.
It’s hard to pick up girls in old  pick up trucks
And if a vacuum works good we say that it sucks.
I guess it’s  just me–I was brought up too rural
But why is a bra singular and panties are plural?

  • ashan1614 on Oct 28, 2009

    So very true. Another one to ponder…. Why do we call it a near miss, when it’s really a near HIT?

  • Lostash on Oct 28, 2009

  • Phill Senters on Oct 28, 2009

    I’ve wondered about things like that often, so I guess I’m dense too. But I’m sure glad we’ve got you to explain it all for us. :)

  • PR Mace on Oct 28, 2009

    I love your humor. As for the last question, I would not touch it with a ten-foot pole.

    Cool Poem…And Good Question!

  • neet on Oct 29, 2009

    Very funny………you’re a great deal of talent.

  • Lord Banks on Oct 29, 2009

    Ah the mystery of the bra! i feel some research coming on!! good article

  • Uma Shankari on Oct 29, 2009

    I checked up immediately. You have a singular form for panties: panty. Bra and panty are both singular and they represent a single piece of clothing. Slow down indicates slowing down (downward value) of speed.

    Ah, I’m such a wet blanket, you must be cursing. Somebody with a sense of humor tries to kick up a laugh (why not down? up and out are outward; they come out of a point — your mouth, and spread radially) and here I am to douse it.

  • Papa Sparks on Oct 29, 2009

    Fantastic stuff Ken!

  • Darla Cooke on Oct 29, 2009

  • chitragopi on Oct 29, 2009

    Rational thinking, doused in humour, as usual.

  • Marie Antoinette on Oct 29, 2009

    Another clever and funny piece – genius! Love it!

  • Lady Sunshine on Oct 29, 2009

    LMAO. Where does your sense of humor come from?

  • deep blue on Oct 29, 2009

    Well you must have answered your own question. What the p___y covers is the key to our humanity which keep our species evolving to keep multiplying to infinity.

  • diamondpoet on Oct 30, 2009

    That was so cleaver I like your style.

  • Aldeano on Nov 3, 2009
