21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 295

 

Solomon Grundie, 

Born on Monday, 

But nothing else

In his life rhymed

CAN I BUY A GOLDFISH?

I went into a pet shop and said,

“Can I buy a goldfish?”

The girl said, “certainly sir

If that’s what you wish,

Do you want an aquarium?”

She asked putting me in a tiz

Finally, I replied “Well actually

I don't care what star sign it is”

WE ARE TRADITIONALISTS # 2

 

We are traditionalists

In our village

Deep in little Britain.

And on a weekend

There is nothing

We like better

Than a game 

Of ten peasant bowling

ODIUM

 

It’s in a state of disgrace

Resulting from detestable behaviour

Where hatred and contempt reign

And despicable acts are the norm

Simple pure unadulterated odium

Hatred and condemnation

Loathing and contempt

Disrepute or infamy

Hate coupled with disgust

Pure unadulterated odium

That’s why I avoid the forum

ODEON

 

When I was a kid

My sister worked

At the Odeon Wood Green

And got me in for nothing

I loved the pictures

And I went everyday

It was a special place to me

Of course it was a far cry

From its Roman namesake

With its grand architecture

And hi-brow classical

Musical performances

But it was a magical place

Where I lost myself

In the flickering shadows

Of movieland

And escaped reality

THE ENDLESS PAVEMENT

 

The endless pavement

Eats away the leather

Wears away my soles

And with each step

My spirits erode

Until I am threadbare

And broken

With worn out soles

On the perpetual pavement

LUMINARY PERSONAGE

 

Luminary personage

Of prominence

A bright light

In the firmament

Truly brilliant

Outshone only

By his achievements
