The nine muses
Daughters of Zeus
Inspiring of mortals
And nurturers of the
arts
The first was,
The divine Calliope,
Beautiful-voiced,
Was the muse of the
epic poets
A writing tablet in
her hand
Calliope was Homer's
muse
Inspiration for the
Iliad
Divine influence of
the Odyssey
“I wish to complain” the woman growled
The manager said, “How
can I help you”?
“There is a puddle on
the bathroom floor
What are you going to
do?”
The manager with a
smile replied
“I’ll have the maid
mop it up for you,
And if it’s any
consolation, I have three sons
And there’s always a
puddle in our loo”
People are loyal only to themselves
They have no sense of
nation today
And put their own
self-interest first
“What’s in it for me”
is what they say
People have many
heartfelt opinions
But hardly a one true
conviction
When England is once
more in peril
This is my sad and
sorry prediction
There will be no mass
rush to volunteer
Conscription will be
met with legal scheming
They only way to get
them to join up
Will be to drag them
kicking and screaming
I was staggered with an item
On the news last night
About illegal
downloads
And breach of
copyright
One proposal is to
block offender’s broadband
Which I thought was alright
But apparently this in
itself is illegal
As broadband is now a
human right
What has become of
this country?
What brought us to our
plight?
What about the
Tolpuddle martyrs?
What of the suffragette’s
fight?
What of battle for
equality
These are true issues
of human right
If King Arthur
returned to us
He would turn and take
flight
Goosey Goosey Gander where shall I wander,
Up hills, down dales with a bullet in the chamber
There I spied you plump and fat in my crosshairs
Then on the dinner
table as we were saying prayers
Dearest friends thank you
For being the air that
helps me fly
And the net that
catches me
You’re the sun in my
sky
Put downs work the best
For deflecting
unwanted attention
But try to be amusing
As this relieves the
tension
“I'd die happy, If I
could see you naked”
He might well begin
So just reply to him
“If I saw you naked, I'd die laughing”
