Drivel

The Retired Bloke

This is a trifle trivial

A poem not political

Pretty petty, partly potty

Lacking lucid language

A bonkers brainstorm 

Bordering on bollocks

A frivolous frolic

Meandering meaninglessly 

Ebbing and flowing

Perpetually pouring 

Mind numbing nonsense

Best before breakfast

A bonanza of banal boredom

Designed to drive you dotty

Depending on your disposition 

A frisson of fantasy

Not meant for Auntie

Hard of hearing Hattie

Partly passing for prose

More like a double dose 

A death defying drivel

This is crap official

Stunningly superficial

Bereft of anything beneficial

Waiting, wanting the final whistle

Wishing this pissing poem would end

Fishing for a final full stop

Stop, stop, stop

This is a stinker

Hook line and sinker!!

  • Comment from author about the poem: Today’s poem was a bit of an experimentation with words. As the title suggests it is about nothing important. Just wanted to play with the rhythm and sound of words. Best recited aloud!

    Like this, the use of alliteration.
    If this is just an experiment with words it works very well.
