Sunday Scribbling #202 : Ethics/Ethical
pass the peas &paren-ethical
pissy pots
the vermin squirm
down bourbon street
casual dalliance
the overtime brothers
in their low hung
Samsung
Samsonite
monsters on the prowl
the vaguely allusive
the eminently
figurative
lost in the
Five and Dime
of their
loose-fitting
imaginations
bringing us
greenbacks
to a day of plenty
(& plenty of it)
eschewing
with their mouths open
extravagantly perched
for all to see
& all to clarion
their pastoral
fashionably op-ed
weigh.

Love the word "fusticants" and your neologism: "paren-ethical". One would think you don't like ethics too much, Murat.
I love the line "eschewing with their mouths open." How else does one eschew? I suppose with a toss of one's elitistly regal head and a delicate snort, but only if one is a lady.
The picture and the color and the phrase "the Five and Dime of their loose-fitting imaginations bringing us greenbacks to a day of plenty..." lead me to believe that you find ethics boards or what have you a little bit corrupt, always following the cheap party line, and unoriginal thinkers??? Not a very positive commentary of our society.
This was fun, and don't be insulted by my rambling interpretations. I might just be projecting...
I feel as thought I just took a walk in your neck of the woods.
Wishing you and yours a lovely Valentine's time~
Teresa: It starts with my own fusticating with the SS girl and their "ethics / ethical" prompt. For Valentine's Day? No projection on your part: your reads are on the money. A ranter only needs the right prompt...

Fear not, readers. No suppression here: just "removing" a repetition of the previous comment.
Tammie: Happy Day back at you. It just got verrrrrrrryyyyyy cold this evening. Your gift to all of us down here? Stay snug and warm up there, girl.
It just felt good rolling around on my tongue. Thank you.

Love it. Great post!
Thank you, MDM.
I think this is one of my favorites. Love love love the paren-ethical pissy pots, fusticants and eschewing with their mouths open. Lots of clanging cymbals here, trumpeting their importance - they are all peas in a pod. Rant on brother!
I enjoyed that the loose-fitting imaginations were in the Five and Dime. I saw that once, on one of those cheap mannequins lacking limbs--just a torso rising from a display table, leaving the rest to the imagination, loosely.
Dee: Glad you liked the cymbal-clashing: an easy rant target.
Sister San: I saw that rising torso, too! So much to see in the Five and Dime.
