Lippy

Doggerel Dave


Notice of absence from Doggerel Dave
I will return early January.

Tell me dear ladies – tell me why lippy?

Make up and heels I’ll never understand.

You can’t be serious – it’s just dippy;

Gender roles begin there – do take a stand.

 

Please tell me what place clowns have in your mind -

A source of merriment or source of fear?

Bad comparison – is it so unkind?

Well there’s nothing much there I could find dear.

 

 

(A very efficient contraceptive

Was provided by lippy in my youth;

There’s some women who found this effective -

Took time to find a solution, in truth…………..)

        Thanks Glassy. Though in retrospect I'm not quite sure if 'cheeky' could be universally interpreted as praise..... or would appear on the back of my non existent book cover.....
        'Like your poetry - keep 'em coming......

        You are indeed very brave .. Personally I am not a great fan of cosmetics of any description although some of us need it these days .. I kinda like navy mascara, depending on the colour of my vest 🙂

          Nev - are you prepared to give away your secrets that easily? You will have no mystery left....

          I've always been a fan of a guy that takes a chance. I used to fish with strange bait like frogs, bugs, and cheese. Now I fish with poems of questionable content. Great write Dave.

            The more quest-ion-able the better, Soren.
