1 Plus 1 Equals 3?
When a young lady named Lou
Said, “1 plus 1 equals 2”,
And her boyfriend, Mr Lee
Said, “shall we try 3?”.
Lou whacked him with her shoe!
A Cold, Sharp Bark
A cold, sharp bark
Pearces the dark,
Interrupting a thought
I really ought
Not to indulge in,
Of women
And sin.
In the city
Those who are witty
Say, in fun,
“Civilisation is done”.
Whilst, in the dark
A fox’s bark
Sounds near, and clear.
When A Gorgeous Young Lady Named Lorraine
When a gorgeous young lady named Lorraine
Said, “your fantasies are far too mundane!
On hot nights I dream
Of lush strawberries with cream”.
I said, “you are covered in them, Lorraine!”.
Blank Verse
A young man named Frank
Composes verses known as blank.
I have spent ages
Pouring over Frank’s pages,
All of which are blank!
When A Young Man Driving A Hearse
When a young man driving a hearse
Said, “your verse is far too terse”,
I said, “man’s life is brief.
His joys must end in grief.
And please, may I drive that hearse!”.
The Plutocrat
When an extremely rude young man named Matt
Said, “you are a terrible, bloated old plutocrat!”,
I sipped my fine wine
And said, “shall we dine?”.
And I threw a crust to that Matt!

An Expert In Quick Dressing
An expert in quick dressing,
A pretty lass
Does her hair,
With no sign of stressing,
In his mute glass.
A man’s confession
Of sin, may outlive him.
And her profession
Will continue on,
Though she is gone.
When A Young Lady Wearing Heels
When a young lady wearing heels
Spoke to me of dodgy deals,
I said, “I am moral.
But let us not quarrel.”
And then she lost her heels!
I Met A Girl In Heels
I met a girl in heels
Swimming with some very cute seals.
I said, “you’ll ruin those shoes!”.
But, after lots of booze,
I joined her in my heels!
