The Decision...
Well I have decided to do it....
made a cup of finest Chinese tea
(not the usual treacle textured deep
black coffee in a large stained mug),
placed a polished vase of pure white
aromatic Lilies on the desk,
exiled the ashtray and cigarettes
to outside on the windowsill,
put on my CD of Pachalbel’s Canon,
tied up the cat’s feet with
a large ball of wool,
given my wife a Louis Vuitton catalogue
to look through,
(more effective than immobilising her
with the knitting needles),
slipped into the softest hypoallergenic
fleece top and jogging trousers,
applied a liberal dose of fragrant
underarm deodorant,
neatly trimmed my fingernails
and rubbed in the finest Aloe Vera
hand cream:
Now I am ready to write that
all time superb Poem,
(but I have forgotten what it was
going to be about.)
Think I'll get some cream cake...
A very witty and humorous write filled with suspense! I should have known better because I do the same. I mean exactly the same. I get read to write that super poem and instead land up in the kitchen to make a peanut butter sandwich!!
Your sense of humor is cleverly displayed here in this poem! Too cute, rather playful and a bit naughty! Great imagery too.....Nadine
ditto to Susan's comments
Mannn... I thought I was the only one that did that... Still.... Sounds like a nice time...
Your life is one long poem, David, and we're revelling in it... pass that Louis Vuitton catalogue, I'll flick through while I'm waiting for your next masterpiece. ;)
lolol this is really good
Lol...enjoyed this one David....what an anti-climax!!!
this made me cry laughing. so good. something to do with my ass hitting a chair- makes all the poems vanish out my head. they survive work, tesco and all the rest of it- but bum to chair contact? nope. i love this one- it IS superb.
