Poems
May 2021
The fat lady on the seat
A fat lady comes and sits down
On a seat in my booth
She glares at me above her spectacles
Its a bit surreal to tell the truth
I turn and stare out the window
As she pulls out a large cream bun
And I slowly hear the uneducated sounds
Off it gliding in her mouth down to her tum
Then she throws her head back
Against the large upholstered seat
And as I notice her swelling belly
I wonder how she finds her feet
She starts to snore loudly
As I stifle a little giggle
Then she jerks a bit to quickly
Before slumping again with a wriggle
My mind races over time
Wondering where the hell sheβs actually going
Falling asleep after devouring a cake
What tale am I not knowing
And then she talks unearthly
Shouting in her sleep
I hate that man, I hate that man
What secret does she keep
The train pulls into the platform
And this my last stop
But the fat lady just keeps on snoring
With her belly about to the pop
