Senryu Series Just One More 6 (Gleanings From The Cutting Room Floor)

Rating: 3.5


Addendum to Duos (Senryu Series) Kelly Kurt


Adam and Eve kelly

Fictional sinners
Mesopotamian pair
She took his ribbing

Adam and Eve wes

Mister West at dark
All jokes are original
Parents of killer

Adam and Eve tom
Where Did we go wrong?
Your fig leaf's slipped again, dear
So are the Sins, Wes!

Arm and a Leg kelly

Exorbitant price
Hokey Pokey essentials
Main appendages

Arm and a leg wes

Give gun and help walk
Look better on a woman
Two are on each side

Arm and a Leg tom
My legs wouldn't, Wes!
One of each, saves on socks, gloves.
Both for Octopus

Bacon and Eggs kelly

Breakfast paradigm
European forage plant
Shopping list staples

Bacon and eggs wes

Sizzling and salty
Same as we had yesterday
Man who is steady

Bacon and Eggs tom
Why "English" breakfast?
Can't beat ‘em, so just fry ‘em
Top start for the day.

Salt and Pepper kelly

Foremost in spice rack
Distinguished gentleman's hair
Female hip hop group

Salt and pepper wes

Slap and shoot a lot
They should be used sparingly
Best not with ice cream

Salt and Pepper tom
No spice in hair now
Try pepperoni Ice, Wes!
Back to dizzy blond!

Batman and Robin kelly

Dynamic duo
DC Comics' crime fighters
Dubious union


Batman and Robin wes

I was there at start
Probably eat most insects
Gotham City guys


Batman and Robin tom

The Caped crusaders
Adam West the Camp Comic
Two flighty creatures

Death and Taxes kelly

Only things certain
One's better than the other
But only slightly

Death and Taxes wes

Of no interest
Due date of latter certain
Notices posted

Death and Taxes tom

Always come on Time
Unlike that sound-a-like car
Immortal. Don't pay!

Jekyll and Hyde kelly

Stevenson novel
Freudian duality
Many an ex-wife

Jekyll and Hyde wes

Nice guy and bad guy
I don't know how to Jekyll
Manic depressive

Jekyll and Hyde tom
Evil creeping out
Drank ultimate Micky Finn
One wife quite enough!

Rock and a Hard Place kelly

Metaphorical
Impossible dilemma
Where a Hyrax lives

Rock and a Hard place wes

Somewhat similar
Those would not be my choices
Dismal selection

Rock and a Hard Place tom
Which one is softer?
A quick way down for climbers
Heavy Metal Club.

War and Peace kelly

Tolstoy's epic book
The latter rarely breaks out
Straightforward option


War and Peace wes

There is a diff'rence
Not left up to you and me
Hawk and Dove symbols


War and Peace tom
Phwoor and piece on our T.V.
Er, Ruskies have vanished, Nap.
Odd trip to Moscow

oh, i think you and Wes are funnier. By the way on the Rocks one.. the remark about two handles refers to the fact we have two curling handles at home (my wife's grandfather's) but no one knows where the stones went. Guess they broke or more like being Scots they sold them as the Special granite, only coming from one Scottish Island off the West Coast, is valuable. We think he had the handles made at the Iron Foundry he owned in Motherwell, just south of Glasgow
