In the moment
There’s the mad thrust
Of unthinking lust.
But after pleasure
Come thoughts of dust.

In the Morning, After a Night of Sinning
In the morning, after a night of sinning
With a group of most beautiful young women,
I met vicar Glynn,
Who condemned my sin.
But his young wife just couldn’t stop grinning!
Bedtime
I found 2 young ladies in red
Waiting in my fine old double bed.
They said, “we are Coral
And are both very moral”.
Dear reader, that is what they said …
The Bliss of Married Life
When I said to a girl called Lou
“Let us pretend that I’m married to you”.
And she said, you are always out drinking!
And at my girlfriends you are forever winking!”.
I said, “Lou, when did I marry you!”
On a Damp and Dark Halloween
On a damp and dark Halloween
I observed a most interesting scene.
The Devil did romance
A demon from France
As the banshee did loudly scream!
I Do Not Fear Another Dying Year
I do not fear
Another dying year
But simply pass
Along the churchyard path
Observing these fallen leaves.
Autumn does not deceive.
But lust
Does, I find
Distract the mind
From dust,
While autumn time reminds
Us that we all
As autumn leaves
Must fall.
All Taped Up
A young woman in a dark cape
Wrapped me up with very thick tape
And posted me
To sunny Dundee,
Where I made a most daring escape!
I Once Met a Man Named Charles Dickens
I once met a man named Charles Dickens
Who was known for his love of chickens.
When I said, “do you write?”,
He said, “yes throughout the night.
But my writing is all eaten by chickens!”
As I Walked the Streets Very Late
As I walked the streets very late
I met a young lady named Kate
Who said, “there are many women
Who earn their living through sinning!”.
Then she winked at me did Kate …!
I Once Met a Friendly Old Ghost
I once met a friendly old ghost
Who plied me with tea and toast.
When I asked for some jam
He gave me boiled ham.
That ghost was deaf as a post!
