Now zap with zing
the zillion flings
the stupid lazy,
much too hazy
boozers, junkies
lazy monkeys.
Expunge the vice
the greed, the lice
those suckers leech
with passion preach
for patience, grit
no tat for tit
for them to share.
It’s too unfair.
Today we play the Quadrille at dVerse with De with the word being zing. I didn’t know at first where the rhymes would lead me, but this is what it became.

Björn Rudbergs writings 
Fantastico, Björn! It’s fun, it’s clever and very catchy. Love the rhymes.
I had fun playing with the rhymes…
So you did.
This is brilliantly crafted, Bjorn! 😀 I love the use of rhyme here! 💙💙
Thank you… rhymes can make it fun to read.
Absolutely!
I love where the prompt word and your title took you, Björn, the jauntiness of rhythm and rhyme, and especially the lines:
‘boozers, junkies
lazy monkeys’.
It is fun to go with the rhyme and see where it leads you.
Fun and sickly true. Love the zing-zong cadence.
“too unfair”

I frecking love it! Very creative and catchy! 🤗♥️
What fun to read out loud!
Cleverly written, Bjorn!
Very clever poetry
One to be read aloud! Great rhyming (and true)!
Well done! I like your rhyme here.
I always enjoy a good rhyming poem. I had to laugh at your photo choice. Fits so well with two opening lines.
Success! Finally! Yay! I can comment! 😉
Bjorn, your zesty rhyme zips this along with incredibly deft wit and brilliance. Well done.
Oh so clever! Well done.
Late comment..were problems commenting ….really good fun and a reminder that words are also there to be played with and not be used in pedantic, ponderous verse..
A dead ringer zinger of a poem.
Great rhyming….a zing to the pacing….and a lot to say here. YES!
That was awesome, Bjorn! The short lines and rhyme worked well in this poem!

I like the way you take a zingy shot at the oligarchy: I fear fascism has arrived globally.
