I’d like to learn piano,

Or something more obscure.

Maybe the concertina,

But I am not yet quite sure.

I’ve never been a toady,

Nor I hope have you.

But the problem with toadying,

Is sometimes you just have to.

I don’t really like horses,

Tough I’ve ridden them once or twice,

Felt like I was on a destrier,

Which wasn’t very nice.

I like to practice impertinence,

At least three times a day.

I’ve no regard for authority,

Well, that’s what my ‘superiors’ say.

My mood is often changeable,

And frequently it troughs,

I worry that I’m capricious,

And that it ****** people off.

My love of being self employed,

Is easily explained:

A lack of genuflecting,

And a sunny outdoor trade.

My mind is a bird
Piercing and shrill
Rapidly moving
Never landing
As I race below
Unable to keep up
Yet unable to stop
