Blah blah blah!

In the land of Blah
everyone spoke blah.
The politicians all spoke
blah, blah, blah.
Men and women
all said blah blah blah
to each other.
Especially in love
the language was blah blah blah.
The good shepherd said to his flock
blah blah blah.
Owners communicated
with their beloved pets
saying blah blah blah.
But no one knew
what blah meant,
little lone blah blah blah.
It was just a load of blah.
But dogs knew,
when the owner said.
“Can you get me my slippers in the top draw of the cupboard Rover!”
They heard:
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah Rover!
Clever dogs! They’ve heard it all before.
Blah blah blah!

I love this snappy cynical piece so much! I just read something similar from Ted Kniffen where he made fun of purple poetic hogwash by actually composing a nauseating bunch of it. You two are on the same wavelength, I guess! I used to use "blah, blah, blah" all the time in my writing, to suggest that my next thoughts are so damn boring, I'm not even going to write them down. Thanks for the laugh! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

This reminds of Alex Lifeson's acceptance speech at the rock and roll hall of fame for Rush. I have never been very fluent in the language of blah but i think maybe i'm catching on now

[andrew mitchell]

Thank you BB, yes just a load of blah really.
