Poetry Challenge

[Chubbhead EFM]

Right, there's a competition running at work to think up a short rhyme about Massimo, our largest size coffee. The rhymes have to start with either:

 

'O Massimo, O massimo'

 

Or

 

'A Massimo a day...'

 

Or

 

'All I dream of is Massimo...'

 

The winner gets either tickets for two to a theme park, a day out at Brighton for 4 people or a picnic for 2 in a park. So, help me win and give me some ideas!

'O Massimo, O massimo',

thou art so massive,

without drinking ye,

I feel quite passive.

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Do we get to come to Brighton with you??

 

 

[Laz]

I would have thought the theme park for 2 would be best. IE Chubster and Yellow Army having a day out at Canvey Towers.

[SteveP]

Though it doesn't ryhme...

 

A Massimo A day..

Means you're caffine intake is pretty uhealthy.

 

'All I dream of is Massimo...'

Hang on, I don't no

 

'O Massimo, O massimo'

Your like a Cornetto

Except not

 

There, hope that helps chubby.

massimo osti- the word legend was invented for

 

there u go

[CANV EFM]

massimo,

dear massimo,

why do i work for a firm that comes out with such total crap staff incentives that only a complete dick would appreciate over a decent salary you fking strokers...

 

mm dont think that ryhmes does it..

[SteveP]

You see Canv poems are so much easier when they don't rhyme.

[CANV EFM]

i agree..

 

a picnic for two in a park,

oh how generous art thou

stick your massimo up your [****!!****]

im leaving at 3pm to get wasted

 

 

[EFM's Librarian]

A Massimo a day,

will have Canv accusing you of being gay (especially if you have it decaf with skimmed milk)

 

Got to agree with Canv on this one, they'll have you singing company anthems and doing team building exercises next <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

[SteveP]

Your coffee's like toffee

Your park ain't no lark

your incentives are sh1te

so lets get p1ssed tonight

and burn down your [***!!***] coffee shop.

 

It rhymed for a bit.

Too late! Thankfully I missed the first team building exercise.

Actually, this prize is coming out of my manager's pocket, so the prizes are quite generous in a way. Especially when you think he also paid for the redecoration of our staff room and some fans, after our air con broke down (36 degrees in the kitchen-woohoo!). Still, I think I'll keep the 'badly paid' theme in my entry.

[Chubbhead EFM]

Oh yeah. and can I just say that even though the pay is lousy at Costa, in their defence they do give some quite good incentives usually. Last few was 600 quid to spend on a staff night out, a staff trip to Chesington world of Adventure and for managers only, a weekend in a luxury hotel in a European city.Err...hang on a minute that doesn't seem fair...

[Rob_the_Saint]

Sorry this is a bit crap but here goes...

 

O massimo, massimo

you are bellissimo

don't know why this is so

my taste buds tell me tho'

 

I'm going to be really embarrassed when I read this tomorrow!

[YELLOW]

Hmm The god that is Paolo Di Canio has to share his tune with a bloody coffee!!! That is embarassing!!
