Say, “you are just 16”,
So refuse to serve that young lady Lou!

It Is My Birthday Tomorrow
It is my birthday tomorrow
But I shall celebrate tonight
When there will be delight

Throughout my birthday.
Though the hair of the dog will remain
To ease my pain …

Entering the Room
Entering the room
In headscarf
With just a hint of perfume.
Half West
And the rest?
She is familiar with the headscarf.
And the rest
Is a hint of scent
The West
And repent?
I Saw A Ghost
I saw a ghost, that was somewhere
Yet not there.
I will deny
That it appeared to me
For, you see
Things of the night
Should stay out of sight
Of polite
Company.

But his huge syringe
Caused me to cringe
And that needle it really did hurt!
