Since God
Is evoked as the author of war
Is it any wonder
Why there are less Christians than there
Were before?
People pray for peace
While the government prays
To extend the lease
§
Each mesmerising thing
Is attended by spirits,
Half attached to what it observes
And still tethered by tide
To the masses
This is why the pull and sway
Of
A woman's mind is made this way
Even before
Knee-socks give way
To dresses
To make love
To all of the world
While it kills
What it caresses
§
I knew a man as old as the wood
But he could say No 'Ah' before the flood
Or at least this is what he claims
Before, he'd clear his throat and out leapt flames
§
Is butter proud to be hard
Relieved to be soft?
The latter means joy can be spread
The former just tears up the bread.
§
Hickory dickory dock
The mouse ran up the clock
You'd think she'd spotted some cheese
Instead she was out running her fleas.
§
I lay in bed in rumpled sheets
Dreaming what I'd boasted
Meanwhile the pig was chasing apples
While my ass was getting roasted.
§
Glow worm Glow worm
Advertise your centipede
Your friend is a foot stores dream
And you both have many mouths to feed.
§
When Venus De Milo had arms
She had no reason to shelter her charms
From those who were prone to hang on
And once her hands turned to stone
Begged the next sculptor to leave her alone
§
Rose quartz ringing joyful bells
And with a rush of giggles the heart swells
Sometimes rhymes are indulgent, lenient
Most times simply convenient
§
And with a great big fart , they all laughed
And she blushed redder than a bull's spear
Even the champagne bubbles turned flat
And tasted more like sulphur after that!
