HORSE PLAY

More people wouldn’t admit it

But according to most sources

A lot of men feel a bit scared

When they’re stroking horses

DOMANI

Tomorrow hard work

Will certainly pay

Bur Laziness will

Payoff for you today

THE LABOURS OF HERACLES # 01: THE NEMEAN LION

 

Heracles when driven mad by the Goddess Hera

Murdered his three children and his wife Megara

The Delphic oracle punished him for the murders

By ordering him to perform the Twelve Labour's

The labour's were set by King Eurystheus his cousin

And his first task was killing the Nemean Lion

It was no ordinary lion but a supernatural monster

Its skin could not be penetrated by arrow or spear

So, he blocked the entrance to the lion's cave

And then Heracles entered fearless and brave

At close quarters he fought the creature fiercely  

And strangled it with his bare hands savagely

Ever after he wore its skin about him as a cape

And as a helmet he wore its head with jaws agape

WEATHER OR NOT

They tell us it’s the climate

That makes our country wet

So, climate is what we expect

But weather is what we get

THE THING ABOUT SEX

 

There are some things better than sex

And some things worse than sex

But there is nothing exactly like sex

 

EGG FOR EGG

 

One simply cannot make an omelet

Without breaking eggs let’s not forget

But it’s amazing how many eggs one can break

Without making a decent omelet

SMILE ON

 

The man who can smile

When things go badly wrong

Has thought of some sad sucker

That he can blame it on
