Quit your pouting! I left that to the reader's imagination.  But for your sake,
I'll throw one in: "Hey baby!  I'm feeling marekish right now, hows about a
nice stiff marek right here on the dining room table?"

and what do you mean it isn't even an adjective?  "mareked girls" - an
adjective - describing the noun "girls".  And as for verb - how about
"she was merrily mareking christmas morning.  ho ho ho"???
How much more verby can you get?

I'll stay away from the true prepositional/propositional stuff,
and leave that to the grand master.... ;-)

Marek, when it comes to your love of mareking you are as public as
the writing on the bathroom wall... i didn't release anything that wasn't
already in the public domain.  ;-)

clean-cut?  my friends will gag.

A ford?  god.  a ford???
couldn't you find something that rhymed with "Astin Martin"?  or
how about "subaru"?  (now THERE'S a fun one! ;-)

you are having more fun with this than with wanking, er, mareking aren't 
you? ;-)  And aside from the the author line, you haven't used the word marek 
once in this poem.  Hardly a good exposition of the possible creative uses of
the word.  I'm disappointed.

I'd rather have the Swedish National basketball team. ;-)

You'd love me and follow me around like a puppy dog, with your tongue dragging
on the floor... But judging from your recent displays of affected affection, I 
doubt if I could stand it if you liked me better....

ok then, how about "only in your wildest dreams"?
