A slight slip....

orchidee



Arrgghhh! nearly posted from the wrong note-book

My note-book of poems sitting there

Inviting - threatening(?) -  another song from me

On me ego trip

I must sing each of my hymn-poems

At least 20 times

Though everyone else has ear-plugs in!

 

But, nearly a major disaster

I nearly inflicted it on ya

Nearly an extract from.....

The World's Most Boring Book

No one can ever reach the end of it

 

They either rage in frustration

Or break down in boredom of tears

Or doze of to sleep apart-way through

 

But Woof! What are you on about? says Fido

What is this book?

Of horrors, of boredom, of being unbearable to read?

 

Well, Fido, It's my job-searching book

'Anoraks' might read it

Very dull or 'sad' people, that is!

 

I retire before too long anyway

I'm in a sort of limbo at the moment

Not to wish my life away until pension

 

It's deffo worse reading that

Than it is hearing me sing

The same song 20 times

And worse than watching a week of 'Neighbours'

[or insert name of a ghastly soap series of your own country}

Is Bouncer still in 'Neighbours? asks Fido

They are friends!

heehee
