ARE YOU WEARING ROMAN ROBES?

 

Are you wearing Roman robes?

They’re very loose and flowing

And they fit where they touch

Without any detail showing

Which keeps a man guessing

I really like that about them

Because it’ll be a surprise later

When I take you up the forum

ARE YOU WEARING A TOGA?

 

Are you wearing a toga?

I don’t want to be an ogre

But you’ll be a hit alright

At the house party tonight

As everyone will be knowing.

Because you will be showing

That beneath the flowing robes

You have unfettered globes

JULIUS CAESAR’S APPROACH

 

Julius Caesar’s approach

May have been absurd

But a different approach

Was what he preferred

Which is why he came,

He saw, he concurred

HADRIAN’S WALL

 

The simple reason why

Hadrian’s Wall was built

Is that north of the border

The extremities wilt

As the wind doth blow

Right up your kilt

CAESAR’S WIFE AND THE CENTURION

 

In ancient Rome in a time quite unlike today

Of Ceasar's wife the people were heard to say

That she was beyond reproach and all believed

And never once did the people feel deceived

 

One day after many years serving the empire

A brave centurion now returned full of desire

After soldiering long and hard over land and sea

He was back in Rome seeking feminine company

 

Caesar meanwhile was neglectful of his wife

For him the empire was most important in his life

And while Caesar was away enlarging his empire

The soldier took his chance and lit the lady’s fire

 

The couple however were very indiscreet, so

They were soon discovered Inflagrante Delicto

Well Caesar’s wife was beyond reproach before

But it’s only Caesar that thinks that anymore
