俗俳/谐俳(得博弈鼓励,加一特刊)

(得到博弈鼓励,加一特刊,10 首 俗俳/谐俳)

1
Always get short-changed
but always get over-charged
Math makes me confused

2
On all the bank notes
who cares who’s who? But beware
of bogus money

3
Baked in Hell’s oven
kids scared hearing this story
vowed to be true men

4
Of course, for the oil
the earth is drilled, the sea sucked
What else is intact?

5
Singularity -
Freedom from duplicity
He remains single

6
“Who’s indecisive?”
A decision maker grinned
“I’ll decide for you!”

7
Flies buzz around a
cow’s arse like bees to honey
a different taste

8
I’m a pragmatist
A house, a car, stocks n’ savings -
A must for the wed!

9
Family planning -
Just one child per family
Boys outnumbered girls

10
With a pinch of salt
the soup tastes most delicious
Mama’s masterpiece

wow, thanks, finally something falls into my comfort zone,
I like the name 谐俳, should be easily difficult or difficultly easy?

I can read one at a time, for I know, be extremely careful with petite size

for fun, how about the 3rd line as:

O Math ‘n mad tricks

sound close to "O Mathematics"
but -ed pattern will be lost, well, just a first read Rolling Eyes

it's cute.

you are crafted with the sound of words, that's for sure.

it's open to various options, no need to worry about the end sound.

I need help in the third line all the time. Thanks.

Is this comment or replacement, or tongue-in-cheek.... ?

how about speech instead of taste?

ps.
This poem reminds me 911 and US, UK,
quite different from your original intent, maybe

Why I said that?

Buzz is like a US word like Bush, arse is like a Brit slang, like its PM;
there is no honey but attacks by bees and sweet talks to the
stinky.

谢谢博弈 给这首小诗 赋予多义。 Laughing

读读你的解析,也是这么回事,说得通。

Kokho 是不是觉得 'arse' sounds vulgar?
