Ted Nugent Love Poem Number One

It’s snowing in the Mountains of Madness.
Please say hello to me.
Please ask me to be your Lady of Winter Love.

We’ve had no falling out because we’ve had no falling love. A
Danger Falling Love Zone:
Avalanche of semen.

Hot wax on your nipples,
my cock in your face.
Is it cool? Is it cool?
Do you mind a pegging?
Golden showers in Penthouse: We are mainstream pornography.

You are explosive.
I pick pieces of you out of my hair.
You could say I am washing you out of my hair.
Dead skin collects dust on empty video jackets.

I’m in a Bad Company stranglehold,
And I can’t deny it.
You gave me cat scratch fever, and I feel like making love.
To you, Ted Nugent.
I feel like making love to you.

Esperanto is the language of love and international business

Bonan tagon, miaamantinoj.
Good day, my female lovers.

Mi parolas Esperanton en la konferenco ĉambro.
I speak Esperanto to you in the boardroom.

Mi enamiĝas kun vi, bonvole.
Mi volas kuniĝi kun vi, bonvole, por komerco.
I am falling in love with you, please.
I want to make love with you, please, for business.

Ne paniku!, sed la ĉefministro koleri.
Don't panic!, but the Prime Minister is angry.

Kie estas la ambasadorejo?
Where is the embassy?

Danka por via fojo hodiaŭ, jes jes.
I am grateful for your time today, yes yes.
