She Has Not Much to Lose

She has not much to lose
Save for her shoes,
For her legs are almost bare
To the summer air.

And one must confess
That’s not much of a dress.
But when attending confession
She shows some discretion.

So lets not cast aspersions
Nor bear a grudge
For I have heard assertions
Her favourite is a judge!

Anticipation of Dissipation

His anticipation of dissipation.
There will be wine
With a girl divine.
Just his type.
And she may stay
For the night.

He sends her train fair.
“I’m on my way”
Her Watsap will say.
He goes to buy wine.
While she smiles
And remains online.

Fast and Furious

When a young lady who is really curious
Said, “I like to go fast and furious!”.
Me and Miss Stride
Had a great ride.
But her boyfriend he was more than furious!

Self-Scan

The self-scan says goodbye.
Elsewhere, a solitary man
Issues a command
To a webcam
And a literary guy
Wanders The Wasteland.

Desire

Desire builds a fire
Which burns. and turns
To ash and dust.

When a young lady named Bland
Lost a pretty little pink hairband,
And the wife of vicar Ted
Found it in the marital bed.
The vicar he just couldn’t understand …!

We Tread a Fine Line

We tread a fine line
Between the devil and divine.
And slip and trip
From time to time.

Fine Silk Stockings

A young lady wearing fine silk stockings
Said, “the people’s behaviour is truly shocking!
Why do they stare!”.
I said, “dear Claire,
I’ve heard clothes go well with stockings!”.

My Manner

When a young lady whose name is Anna
Said, “Sir, I really don’t like your manner!”.
I said, “I’m sorry for that
But please tell your horrid tomcat
Not to whack me with that old spanner!”.
