Comedic poetry some of which is rude. None of which is crude.
A book of humorous poems, rhymes, and doggerel and short stories which I have written over a couple of years.
I don't go in for political correctness neither do I set out to deliberately offend anyone.
The poems are a rich and varied mix poking fun at the "Establishment" and also at situations we observe on a daily basis. Quite often it's myself who is the butt of my own humour. It has a couple of good reviews on Amazon.
Excerpt
Ageing Romeo
(A teenage daughter's advice to her father)
You’re looking old and wrinkled your body’s very crinkled
The fairy with the ageing dust has been around and sprinkled
Everybody sniggers when you’re walking in the town
There’s that ancient Romeo, oh what a silly clown
Don’t try to suck in yer belly in when a pretty girl goes by
You cause us such embarrassment Mummy wants to die
You look so ridiculous yer arse balloons and sags
Stuffed into those skin tight jeans instead of Oxford bags
Talk about ageing gracelessly, you look a proper fool
Swaggering into night clubs pertending to be cool
It’s no use dressing young dad my stern advice is sage
Stop combing over your bald patch and for god's sake act yer age!
Homer's Ill Iliad & Odd Sea Odyssey (420 pages) is an adult satire/parody rewrite of the classic stories of the 10 year Trojan War and of the 10 year adventure of Odysseus trying to return home to his native Ithaca.
