Poor Verse

When an old man driving a hearse

Went and composed a very poor verse,

A corpse named Ted

Said, “I am dead!

But I still object to poor verse!”

Whilst Visiting a Place Known as Clapham

Whilst visiting a place known as Clapham

A girl said, “I’ll make it happen!”.

When I said, “does it involve money?”,

She said, “o,  my dear naïve honey,

Don’t you know everything does in Clapham!”

Kidnapped

I awoke on an island with seals

And spied a young lady in heels.

When I said, “my dear,

How did we get here!”,

She said, “we got kidnapped by seals!”.

My Dear Friend the Beautiful Miss Lee

My dear friend the beautiful Miss Lee

Has won prizes for her erotic poetry.

She came round last night

With a girl called white

And we played at cards till 3.

Sun Who is Always Up for Some Fun

I know a young lady named Sun

Who is always up for some fun.

Her and Miss Claire

Work in the fair,

And from their boyfriends I must run!

I Know a Most Delightful Old Squire

I know a most delightful old squire

Who has never been seen with Moriah.

She wears a short dress

And I have to confess

That she looks rather like the squire!

Politics or Pleasure

I met a young lady named Ling

Who said, “are you left-wing or right-wing?”.

I said, “politics are so boring

And will have us both snoring!

Now Ling, do you fancy a fling!”

My Homicidal AI

When I said,

To my Alexa AI,

“Am I dead?”,

She made quick reply,

“I hope so!”.

I really don’t know

But maybe I

Possess a homicidal AI!

 

(Note: sometimes I ask my Alexa random questions for the fun of doing so. The above poem stems from a genuine answer provided by Alexa to the question, “Am I dead?”.

Alexa has given the same response to the above question over several weeks. Should I be concerned …

 

The Poetry Teacher

I know a young poet named Lee

Who says, “my poetry will outlast me!”.

I regret his verse

Grows steadily worse

So they pay him to teach poetry!

A Lover’s Tiff

When a pretty young lady known as Lou

Said, “I will see you both at 2”,

My girlfriend Jane

Really did complain

As she has this thing for Miss Sue …!
