Signs of Things to Come

Neville

Signs of Things to Come

 

My wife, she wears

the trousers ..

While I wear a really

pretty dress ..

I think there may be

something,

they are adding to

the water,

around these parts ..

For instance,

take my daughter

Dave, who is really

in such a dreadful mess ..

    If I didn’t know that it was biological, I would think that it was being taught in the schools. Maybe it’s just a passing fashion. A fun lighthearted read that gave me a smile and that’s all it takes to be counted as good for me

      so you don't think water has anything to do with it .. that's a relief .. I drink loads of the stuff .. so much in fact, I've noticed recently my bra doesn't fit as snugly as it ought ..

      What did we identify as today... guess it doesn't really matter now that all is fluid and in a constant state of dysphoria... someone please respect the inner turmoil that boils and roils within me!

        ............... with much respect ... Cheers πŸ‘

        Satire at its best in this gradually inverting world. The best is the touch of absurdity towards the end. I felt the adsurdity managed to convey the incongruity of the situation quite eloquently. Fantastic poem!

          Thanks for the thumbs up my friend πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

        • orchidee

          Now where's my handbag - bet KP's got it! lol.

          • Neville



            .. probably where you left it πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

          • Tristan Robert Lange

            I sniff something satirical about this piece, just like you might encounter another alliterative affirmation acknowledging the unquestionable quality of this wonderful work. Well done, friend. πŸ‘ Now, I am going to my male-exclusive bathroom at home…which my wife tells me is the tree in the woods behind the house. πŸ˜‚

              No kiddin ................. no kiddin ....... we used to have an outside lavatory too .. we used to call it the john .. now he's referred to as janette πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

              • Tristan Robert Lange

                🀣 It evidently happens!

                  • Tony36

                    You're welcome

                  • Cheeky Missy

                    Your "...daughter, Dave, who--" must surely feel kinship with Ryan [Reynolds] and Blake [Lively/Reynolds]' daughter James, and the host of other misnamed girls....and you blame the drinking water. Hmm. Is your "skirt" a kilt? Either way, delightfully rendered in excellent good humor with sparkling imagery. Thank you for sharing. [To think I'm still disgusted with my dad's sister who named my cousin, my female cousin, Bronte, twenty years ago, like that was acceptable.]

                      Cor blimey Mistress Missy that wasn't a very nice thing for ya aunt to do now woz it .. I still have the number of a half decent hit man if you want it .. Neville

                      • Cheeky Missy

                        Nah. My aunt is better off with the misery she causes herself with her choices.

                      • Dan Williams

                        Hard time picking which restroom to use, are you? Girls in the Boy Scouts? Arrrrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhh.

                        • Neville



                          There would appear to be a few who seem to be sitting on the fence .. cheers .. Neville

                          Good fun write Neville but in these days and ages there seems to be a war going on about what sex we are.

                          Andy

                          • Neville



                            Thanks Andy, I know what side I'm on .. Ta very much πŸ˜ŽπŸ§πŸ‘

                          • Doggerel Dave

                            Thought I'd stay clear...didn't want to get confused.....

                            • Neville



                              I quite understand .. cheers Dave
