UPON THE CHESSBOARD

 

Upon the chessboard

The pieces move

And change their futures

Their course and direction

And I want that

I want to make a move

In a different direction

Toward a different future

I will set a new course

And face what presents itself

There is nothing I can’t do

LET’S SPLIT

I’ve always wanted to learn to do the splits

It’s an ambition since my earliest days

The guy at the gym said, “How flexible are you?”

I replied, “I can do any day but Tuesdays”

BOOKING OFFICE

I requested a train ticket to Paris

And the ticket seller said “Eurostar”

“Well, I've done a bit of telly”

I said “but I'm no Alan Carr”

AT THE ANIMAL SHELTER

 

I went to an Animal shelter today

I wasn’t impressed as a matter of fact

It was incredibly small an pokey

There wasn’t enough room to swing a cat

 

LL$!!FAM@!!£ER L#%@$!?!?ILIOG

 

I was in North Wales

Just the other day

When I was verbally assailed

While visiting Conway

A string of fourteen letter words

Was hurled my way                                   

BURNT OFFERINGS

 

My wife burns the toast

She makes a habit of it

Then puts it in the garden

For the sparrows and the tits

 

Not many birds are keen

Even in the harshest weather

But you can spot those who are

Because of the curly feathers

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 73

 

Little Tommy Tucker sings for his suppers,

Because he is so down on his uppers

But he doesn’t get much out of it

Because his singing is really shit
