An attractive young lady named Claire
Is enjoying a most sordid affair.
Whilst naughty Miss Hocking
Has mislaid a stocking …
And I am busy with Claire.

Young Women and Fine Wine
A young lady drinking my fine wine
Said, “your company is far from divine!
But, give me more
And, I feel sure,
That fine wine will make you divine …!”
Nell Gwyn
At 19, she
Entered her profession
A tender age
For the stage.
Afterwards, he
Thought on the profession
Of Miss Nell Gwyn,
And sin.
A Most Beautiful Young Lady Named Leigh
A most beautiful young lady named Leigh
Has composed an erotic poem about me.
Her verse is real great
And I just can’t wait,
As she’s invited me round for tea …
Insanity
“Poet laureate Amanda Gorman stole the show at Joe Biden’s presidential inauguration on January 20 when she read her powerful poem, The Hill We Climb. Now, it’s being translated into a number of foreign languages — and not without controversy.
Last Friday, Marieke Lucas Rijnveld, the writer chosen to translate Gorman’s work into Dutch, declined to take on the assignment following criticism that she was not Black.” https://www.dw.com/en/amanda-gormans-dutch-translator-steps-down/a-56754197
The world grows ever more insane!
Hyacinths
I bought hyacinths yesterday.
Their scent
Will stay
For a brief time.
And I rhyme
Of repent
And lost hours
Midst passing flowers.
But I
Will buy
Joy and pain,
Of hyacinths again.

Lady Lake
When the elderly and great Lady Lake
Said, “sir, you are a terrible rake!
And as for Miss Hocking,
Please give back her stocking!”.
I said, “your ladyship makes a mistake!”.
Socks
She kept
Her socks on.
As you would expect,
No one wept.
Then she was gone.
