Having fun in a derogatory way and getting stuck with “ace” words!
When no one appreciates Mace
He suddenly loses his grace
With bat and with ball
He’s off down the hall
And storms off right outa that place
But what this unobservent Mace
Has failed to observe is that space
Is timeless but ends
In relative bends
And so he falls flat on his face!
The thought of strict metre and rhyme
Is good in its place and its time
But what makes me warm
Is lots of free form
In verses and ladies sublime.
May 2012 and the Leader of the Greens inexplicably votes against a Carbon Tax. This inevitably leads to Tony Abbott being elected Prime Minister.
Oops, I just had a kitten on keys
She messed up while scratching for fleas
And stuffed up my lim
You must think me dim
And the damn feline’s just scratched my knee!
My throat has become red and sore
The prognosis for life is now poor
The wild coughing fits
Just rip it to bits
And sleep I’ll foreswear evermore!
When looking for you in my darkness
You’re still and you’re looking, not listless
You absorb what’s around
Its sights and its sounds
I find you in pockets of silence
limericks; naughty and nice
