A Man Who Calls Himself James

A man who calls himself James

Is known by many other names.

Some call him Nevile

And others the Devil –

I’ve seen James dance in flames!

Worms

When I am gone

My poetry may live on.

And when I go

Others will know

Whether it is so.

While in the cold ground

There is nothing profound

For worms have no time

For fleeting rhyme.

But love to dine …

An Elderly Writer Known as Ted\

There once was an elderly writer known as Ted

Who said, “burn all my works when I’m dead!”

His young lover Divine

Said, “they’re all online!

With the picture of the vicar in our bed …!”

You Won’t Get to Heaven

When a moral old lady named Nevin

Said, “Kevin, you won’t get to heaven!”

A gorgeous young sinner called Bell

Said, “Its more fun in hell.

And Kevin, I’ll take you to heaven …!”

Vicar Large and the Barge

When I saw the good vicar Large

Making love to young women on a barge,

I just couldn’t stop grinning

And spoke of his sinning!

He said, “you’re paid to steer this barge!”

 

When I Met the Devil in a Pub

When I met the devil in a pub

I said, “have you come in for grub?”

He said, “the barmaid is pretty

And you sir are most witty!

But alas! This pub it has no grub!

My Sugar Date with Kate

I once went on a sugar date

With a young lady named Miss Kate.

When it came to paying time

I recited a very fine rhyme

Which delighted the old waiter and Kate!

No Soul

There once was a young man named Mole

Who said, “I believe you have no soul!”

An old person called Neville

Said “I’m not the devil!”

And his eyes they blazed like hot coal …!

 

Cerebral

A young lady who is really most cerebral

Said, “your poetry it is so very terrible!”

I said to her, Jane,

You have a great brain,

But your manners they are really most terrible!”

Goth

When I met a beautiful young Goth

Who was suffering from a bad cough,

I felt such bliss

When we two kissed.

But that Goth gave me her cough!
