These were entries for a Washington Post competition asking for a rhyme with the most romantic first line and least romantic second line:
Love may be beautiful, love may be bliss
But I only slept with you, because I was pissed.
I thought that I could love no other
Until, that is, I met your sister.
Roses are red, violets are blue,
sugar is sweet, and so are you.
But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead,
the sugar bowls empty and so is your head.
Of loving beauty you float with grace
If only you could hide your face.
Kind, intelligent, loving and hot;
This describes everything you are not.
I want to feel your sweet embrace
But don't take that paper bag off of your face.
I love your smile, your face, your eyes-
Damn, I'm good at telling lies!
My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:
Marrying you screwed up my life.
I see your face when I am dreaming.
That's why I always wake up screaming.
My love, you take my breath away.
But what have you stepped in to smell this way?
My feelings for you no words can tell,
Except for maybe "go to hell!"
What inspired this amorous rhyme?
Two parts vodka, one part lime..

The Ugly Truth!!
People used to say varsity teaches us a lot, true enough. In my 3 years in local Uni, I’ve learn a lot, not juz education wise but a lot other new things. Some are for gud, but most are bad. I can’t deny I had fun but at the same time, there are things that really heartbreaking n disgustful. I met many kind of people, quite astonished by how people react for various situations. So from now on, I’ve plan 2 to share about whatever I’ve been thru in this 3 yrs by timeline.
It all starts in my 1st year, seems like a good beginning of campus life. Met a lot of batch mates which seems very frenly and open minded. Before entering Uni, I wont mix much with Indians, mayb I didn’t get such an opportunity but now im glad. Ok, back to d story, I didn’t hesitate to mix with all of them because im far away from my home and they are the one who gona be with me for the next 4yrs. So, start to build so called friendships. Neva had any bad impression on anyone and I was true to everyone.
As the saying goes, show me your frenz, I’ll tell who u are. This saying is very interesting, I didnt understand its meaning at first, but now I do. Mayb we can oni understand its meaning after learn about frenship. Most of us might have been thinking abt the frenz surrounding us, their attitude, characteristic, and their mentality, so do I. I came across few so called frenz tat have their extraordinary attitude. I have been wonder am I with literate o a bunch of typical people. Some of their attitude and mentality I find very hard to digest.
As I’m open minded, and used to mingle with open minded people back at home, I had trouble to tolerate n adapt to this kind of situation at first. So, I just follow the flow. As im getting closer with them, I began to act like them. Mayb I juz neglect d bad stuffs as they are my frenz o belittle and who cares, we live our life our ways. I was slowly losing my consciousness especially when having fun doin bad things repeatedly. To think now, I feel so dump. Don’t I have brain to distinguish the good and bad?
As I was getting drown in sea of hell, my so called frenz nature originality revealed. Things like vulgar words, jealousy, underbred, people who avail o take advantage of others for their own benefits, double-faced, deceitfulness, backstabbing while feigning friendship and plenty of other things become so common. Do I need to give examples? I began to question my morality. What the hell wrong with me? I have been acting like a moron. Is this what I really am? What I suppose to do at this stage?
