English Grumpy on the outside but inside I'm funny as hell!
The problem with pencil skirts is... the legs keep breaking.

Poetry Strike Action - New Timetable Released
Walked out on it all, mid-life crisis taken hold, Done nothing but work, pay tax, time to be bold. Dyed hair, had an affair, went clubbing once more, Tried *** in a Maserati but got it caught in the door. Didn’t think it through. Did all but one thing on my bucket list, Travelled, explored and got endlessly ****** No happier, alone, one half of a whole, Ruined it all by having no self-control. Didn’t think it through. Revenge on her mind she accepted me back, Wife threatened me with “back, sack and crack”, Totally livid, intent on harmful litigation, In the end made me pay for her breast augmentation. She didn’t think it through.

Didn’t Think It Through
Joints stiff, torso still, Fingers bent, little will. Rods strengthen my legs Keeping me balanced. I am totally hairless, Eyebrows painted on. Stuck in this body No movement is my own. I was created this size, I’ve never grown. To move I am aided With callous roughness. Dressed by others Who couldn’t care less. “Don’t look at me like that!” This dress and hat I did not pick, I cannot help my stance And yet you stare Without embarrassment. And when naked In the bright spotlight, It does not deter you. Some point, Some laugh, I get your looks, But not your love. It’s not easy Being a shop mannequin.

Paralysed
Tuesday night and it’s Baked Beans AGAIN! Does she ever stop talking. I used to fool myself that her snore was musical like a sweet sounding flute, Now it’s just a snore. Too loud, all too familiar. What would happen I wonder if I took that tin of Baked Beans on the table And battered her to death with it. They found the ****** weapon in the cupboard on the top shelf, Next to a quivering can of rice pudding. It didn’t look overly angry or guilty, it looked (for what it’s worth) Like any other tin of beans. However it had blood and hair around the rim. “BAKED BEANS **** the front page of The Sun would say, Amnesty on all tinned goods called for, as the masses Started taking ‘tin(g)s” into their own hands. All over the country, partners dying at the hands of Heinz, Or possibly cans of spam or pear slices. The Army may catch on, a major new part of SAS training, Close quarter baked bean tactics. The wail of sirens as Police arrive at an incident “Put down the weapon or we shall be forced to fire… tinned pineapple”. A can of alphabetti spaghetti could spell death. “Let’s not have Baked Beans tonight my love… Chinese?”

BAKED BEANS ****
I do not own a motorbike, Never been a member of the Third ***** I’m not Italian, French or gay, (No homophobe, just not built that way). I’m not Tom Jones or a member of Queen, I’m not going back to the seventies in a time machine. I’m not a backing dancer for Madonna, Talc on my legs “I don’t wanna”. So why do I own a pair of leather trousers? This was definitely a mistake, Like breaking wind on a first date, Swearing at the boss at the crimbo celebration, Being caught by parents doing a ****** gyration. Persuaded to buy them, through the mist of lust she had taste, I found out too late, she was highly religious, chaste. Good quality, not cheap, never worn, Could be used in transvestite **** Does anyone want a pair of leather trousers?
