Example of text from a skoem:
My Bird is a real stunner,
I reckon She’s the best ;
The only Girl in Wotty-Loo
With rotating breasts !
She whirls them in the morning,
And twirls them fast at night,
Her aureoles go flying around
At the speed of light
One day I bought some tassels,
A little risky, perhaps
But I got some glue, and with much ado,
Affixed them to her baps.
Once she got them spinning,
They made a frightful sound,
And then, like a pink Chinook,
She lifted off the ground !
Oh, my Northern Bird has flown away,
Buzzed-off to pastures new,
I miss her tricks and high-speed nips,
Bah, damn that super glue !
The above text would be accompanied by a basic pencil sketch of a woman , dressed only in a thong, flying through the air, her nipple tassels rotating wildly like airplane propellers.
