Three Word Wednesday CLXXIII

written for and prompted by 3WW
the words this week are:
Ideal, Measure, and Teeter.

Here's mine:

AN IDEAL HUSBAND
She wanted her ideal husband to measure up, not teeter about. But, even John Wayne would teeter on the brink of her ideal measure. He surprised her, by shooting from the hip, like his Western counterpart.
20012+10

An anagram of
Esteemed evil at rear
With rehashed words is
IDEAL MEASURE TEETER
Which can be read as
A re-teet leader I muse
O anagram fan
20012+10/1

  8. Teeter had me thinking of JW as well - have to think of something else now.
    Cleverly worked first & last line on NaiSaiKu.

  9. Thanks Stan, I'm sure you'll come up with something, it's probably best not to look at other peoples posts before you create something on a prompt.

    Did you see the 10 goal thrilla at Villa tonight? It was their second leg and Villa won 7-4 on aggregate, them being one nil up from the first leg at Blackburn. so we've got the Brummies in the final after we smash the rags at Stretford.

  12. Well it took a little time, but I got there...
    Caught the Villa highlights and Spurs couldn't overtake us...I hope RM realises we need at least one at OT.

  13. Hi stan, They probably need half a bottle each, if you're talking Remy Martin, But yeah we need to go on scoring, to maintain that advantage.

    Hi Larry, I like that thing on your blog that says: will it kill you to comment.

    Hi Americanising Desi, like I said last week, the anagram thing was all I could think of, I'm itching to write a real poem, hold on I can feel a sonnet coming....
