Sex Tourist

In a hot land
Man can not command
The sun,
But those of a certain mind
Will find
That fun
Under a foreign sun
May be had
With a girl or lad.
Though the trip enjoyed
Is a life
Destroyed. Yes, man can command
A smile
While at home the wife
Or girlfriend does trust, or pretend
That she does not know.
And, when he does go
To the pub on his return
His mates may learn
Midst laughter
Of fun
Under the sun
While disaster
Unlike Banquo’s ghost
Does not spoil the feast.

Cramp

I wake
And feel an ache
In my bones.
I must
Engage with cramp
For age
Has left a stamp
On me
And dust
Hides in corners.

You may
Clear the dust away
But ’tis a never ending task
Which, at last
Will defeat
The best of men.
And the ache reminds thee
And me
That, in the end
The dust will win, my friend

I Know A Young Man Named Hogg

I know a young man named Hogg
Who composed a poem about the smog.
His work is too dense
And fails to make sense,
And he lost me deep in the fog!

Punting

Some men love the horserace.
‘Tis the thrill of winning
After which they chase.
Others prefer another kind of punting,
A hunting
After fallen women.
‘Tis a type of bet,
Which some call sinning,
Which may end in regret
Or pleasure, but never winning

When You Saw Her With Me

When you saw her with me
And I asked, “did she
Look Happy?”
You answered “yes”
Which, I must confess
Made me
Smile, for she
Did not smile
Away her time
With me
For the love of my rhyme,
And a smile may beguile,
Reveal or conceal
Simultaneously, while
All you see
Is a smile
That does grace
A girl’s pretty face . . .

When A Young Man Named Mitch

When a young man named Mitch
Said, “poetry will make me rich!”,
A young lady called Moriah
Sighed, “I must marry the squire,
For poetry does not make one rich!”.

Standing Under This Rain Drenched Tree

Standing under this rain drenched tree
I hear the breeze
That rustles the leaves
Whisper to me.
Then, a sneeze,
Brings me back to reality.
