Warned me of the dangers of sin,
Priggish Miss Coral
Called me immoral.
And then I went home with Lin …

I heard the heels of Miss White.
I said, “Come in”.
And my wife Lin,
Threw me out last night with White!

Who was far too fond of strong booze.

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

But, give me more

That fine wine will make you divine …!”

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!
