         I  WISH
Why affect transparent deceit
saying they've had enough of me
when all the time the women I meet
pretend they're not in love with me.


I've got a proposal for you
of much the usual kind -
you can enter my body 
if I can enter your mind.

I pay more and more attention to my teeth
as they get less and less

The Male Disease
Sex is an itch they have to scratch

DATES
You know when the fruit is getting ripe 
ready to be plucked
it starts to soften gradually
yielding to the touch

CELEBRITY FICTION
Any fool can write a novel and most do.
But more foolish are they that buy them
just because of the celebrity name.

What seemed at first a catastrophe
with patience came good eventually.

ONE FOR THE STATISTICIANS
Is the total sum of human happiness
greater than that of sadness?

Another murderer wins
like they do every time.
Light punishment for sins,
no justice for the crime.


SIGNAL SOONER, DAMN YOU !
What's the good of showing
what you're actually doing
when you should be showing
what you INTEND to do.


OCCUPATIONAL  THERAPY
If I stop doing,
I might start thinking
and if I start thinking
I'll get depressed.


JAZZ
Good rhythm.
Shame the singer didn't turn up
with some lyrics and a tune. 

'Darby and Joan' was the passing thought
clinging together for shared support.

We like to think we plan our tasks ahead
but sometimes they jump out and ambush us instead.

So you think you still look young?
Well, think afresh !
Sunken cheeks and eyes, skin wrinkled,
hanging flesh.
