off with Van Gogh (R) slight instance of swear word

Van Gogh was a troubled soul

off went the ear he popped it

in a bowl, took it bloodied to a

local brothel, gave it to the girl

he liked who said "Bloody hell!"

but in French of course. Well

she would wouldn't she? Swell

gift, a bloody lobe. A pro used

to what a client proposes never

would turn up her nose at roses,

choccies, naturellement but non

non, non to body parts there her

professionalism departs, even a

French respect for the finer arts;

ports Van Gogh's bits in her bag

off to gendarmes with nasty swag.

"Regardez vous - that Dutch piss

instead of a shag he gives me this.

Strange fellow always wants me to

dress in yellow, I think he's so sad."

"Regardez vous - that Dutch piss

dress in yellow, I think he's so sad." Wonderful stuff. I have Van Cough (Amsterdam pronunciation) reproductions, best viewed from a distance, since he has been reported to have had astigmatism. My g'daughter has painted knock offs of a couple--they are more precious to me than the originals. Some say a thin line separates artists from insanity. Enjoyed your tongue-in-cheek rendition greatly. Franklin

Besides your radical topics, you have this unique "end word rhyming with another word just somewhere down the line". Way cool.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thank you Franklin, ah art runs in your family too. My bruv (deceased sadly) was a commercial artist. I'm into it too - went to the Manet Exhibition at the British Academy recently. Frank

Good of you to read and comment, and perceptively by which I mean the inner rhyme observation, I do use it a lot lately.

Thanks Marti.

Frank.

Good one Frank, Many years ago I went to a Van Gogh exhibit and fell in love with his work. I can still close my eyes and see some of those paintings in my mind they made such an impression. I went to that exhibit right after I became engaged to be married. We will celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary in November.
