AM I BLONDE

 

Bimbette and Peaches

Thought they couldn’t use

There AM radio in the afternoon

In their views

THE WHORES OF WESTMINSTER

 

What a thoroughly unwholesome situation we find ourselves in after the 2010 election result, we purveyors of democracy, we who rain down bombs of democracy upon the lands of the less enlightened.

We find Gordon Browns defeated party clinging onto power by its very fingertips while Clegg whores his party out to the highest bidder to his discredit and to the disgust of his supporters.

I pray that Cameron is permitted to take the reins and drive us out of this mire we find ourselves in created by the most undemocratic instrument namely the tactical vote.

I further pray we never go down the road of proportional representation because what we are experiencing at the moment is, but a pale reflection of what PR will land us with after every election.

WHATS IN A NAME (8)

Does anyone know who did Rob Roy?

Does anyone know is Bob Coy?

Does anyone know is Allan Sly?

Did anyone else see Elizabeth Fry?

MIND AND BODY – BROKEN BODY

 

How cruel

What callous vindictiveness

So unutterably spiteful

Perpetrated by the Supreme Being?

Part of some master plan

Or predestined by the fates

The roll of a dice

It’s unimportant who

Or why

It’s just a waste

Such a waste

Trapping an incisive mind

So razor sharp

Of such brilliance

Trapping it mercilessly

In a slowly decaying shell

Irrevocably diseased

The body wasting

Unable to walk

Even to talk

Unable to eat unaided

Or use the toilet

Lost control

And lost dignity

All the time the mind astute

Until finally only the mind remains

Then as on an old TV screen

Everything fades to a white dot

Then nothing

LONGER

 

I don’t smoke any longer

Of long life I'm fonder

Will it help I wonder

To make me any stronger

And make me live longer

Or just to seem longer

WISE PROVERB

 

A man who runs in front of a car

Gets tired I think you’ll find

Whereas he will undoubtedly

Get exhausted if he runs behind
