10 hilarious love poems

(Alex E. Proimos / CC BY 2.0)

These are entries to a Washington Post competition asking for a two-line rhyme with the most romantic first line, and the least romantic second line:

one
My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:
Marrying you has screwed up my life.

two
I see your face when I am dreaming.
That's why I always wake up screaming.

three
Kind, intelligent, loving and hot;
This describes everything you are not...

four
Love may be beautiful, love may be bliss,
But I only slept with you 'cause I was pissed.

five
I thought that I could love no other
— that is until I met your brother...

six
Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you.
But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead, the sugar bowl's empty and so is your head.

seven
I want to feel your sweet embrace;
But don't take that paper bag off your face.

eight
I love your smile, your face, and your eyes
Damn, I'm good at telling lies!

nine
My love, you take my breath away.
What have you stepped in to smell this way?

ten
What inspired this amorous rhyme?
Two parts vodka, one part lime.

Please stand by: 25 designs inspired by TV test patterns

Test patterns, or test cards, were once a common sight on television sets around the world. In recent years, though, test patterns have been replaced by digital calibration methods.

Faced with the threat of extinction, the humble analog test pattern was forced to expand its territory beyond television.

It can now be found almost everywhere.
