SHAMELESS PLUG #18

Yours truly has had a poem published in Vol 3 of the Poetic Bond series:




I'm even on the cover with an unsmiley face. Clever or wot?

You can check it out at www.thepoeticbond.com/

or at good old Amazon...



LIKE A CLOSED BOOK



She had a faced like a closed book
A book that you had heard was shit
And almost certainly didn’t want to read
But nonetheless, there it was
Every day,
In your face,
Like Fifty Shades Of Grey
Only shorter,

But just as thick.

NONSENSE

You’ll pardon me
If I stop talking to you
For the rest of my/your life
(delete as applicable)
But I have found
That some people take most of what I say,
Which is at least fifty percent nonsense,
At face value
And despite this being their mistake
I am the one who looks foolish
Suggesting that all the world leaders
Get together and make sandwiches

To resolve all their problems

RABBIT

The problem with people like you
Is that you never shut up

They say it’s the quiet ones you have to watch out for
That’s because they’re the ones
Busily plotting your bloody demise
While you rabbit away incessantly
About nothing
Nothing

And nothing.
