"My Pillows Went Flat"
Jacob Fitzlaff

My pillows went flat,
I've only had them for a month.
I threw out the instruction manual,
If only I was drunk...

Why did my pillows go flat?
Perhaps I'm sleeping wrong.
Perhaps if I was sleeping,
I wouldn't have wrote this song.

My bastard pillows are flat,
And fluffing them doesn't work.
I tried to get a refund,
But the guy at Wal-Mart is a jerk.

I'm stuck with my flat pillows,
Thanks for the Christmas present mom.
Everyday I awake with a sore neck,
So why am I telling Metaltabs.com?

I was laying in bed last night, getting steadily more pissed off at my pillows, and thus this poem was born.

hahaha good job!

That's awesome. e-hugs for Tulvox. I even take back the remark I made about the tulvox stubbies in the RTT.

Hey, could you make a pg-46 rated one without that nasty "c" word?

Ahh...I'm sorry. I didn't realize that there were elders in the audience. I'll keep you in mind next time L,B'XXX. But...another poem about pillows?

Edit: What's a Tulvox stubby?

I got to the "C-word" and stopped reading.

I really dislike that word.

No, no! Just a cleaned up word in that spot. Heavens no, don't write another piece unless you want to. You could wait til you get new pillows and do a sequel though.
My pillows went flat,
I've only had them for a month.
I threw out the instruction manual,
Maybe I should smoke a blunt. --I unno. It would have to semi-rhyme with month though.

No, I don't go for too much censorship and that went right over my head when I first read it, but had it sunk in I'd have said something. Plus you said it was one of those spontaneous pieces so I wouldn't want you to tamper with the original unless you felt it necessary. I mean if you wanted to drop a hint to your mom you might post it on the fridge and I don't know if she'd like that word or not.

The tulvox stubbies I came up with when some were talking about picks. I can't remember the right name but it was similar to yours. I did a quote and changed the original word to your name. I went through a bunch of pages at that long ass thread looking for it but I can't find it now. lol You were in the conversation so that's why I did it.

I don't remember that conversation...

And I hope you like the PG-46 version.

Bangbang, then you might not like most of the regulars here.

Edit: I searched the RTT and found that post, L,B. I looked two pages ahead and behind too. I wasn't in that conversation. You must have been high, metal mom.

You're kidding me. Doggone it. Maybe I saw you in the browser list. I don't think any of the meds I've been on have given me a buzz or anything so I don't think I was high. You found the conversation? I'm impressed.

heehee Yeah, that's a good switch from that "bad word." You didnt' have to do that though. I'm an old fart on the boards and don't want to step on any creative toes. I think I'm getting desensitized to certain things because of being here. It still isn't a part of my vocabulary that I personally use though.

The quote you mentioned is on page 667. Just use the search function next time.

I did, but how did you get the page number? I must have been pretty darn close because that's right about where I was. I must have scanned about 15 or 20 pages and somehoe missed that one. lol figures.........old, senile woman....
