Miserable

[spamheid]

I steamed a bream in my machine
I thought I'd have it for my dinner
Served up with spinach nice and green
I felt that it might make me thinner.

But a tiger came to tea
And he ate my bream completely
Tell me now where he may be
And I'll kick his arse discretely.

I steamed a bream, I hoped 'twould be
So different from this pie I'm eating
But they stole that bream from me
And they left me effing greeting.

[Edna Sweetlove]

To greet. A fine Scots verb.
But if one has...
meet, met, met
bleat, bleated, bleated
....
greet, gret, grotten?

Bob's ya uncle!

[Barry Hodges]

I once slept with someone called Bob. She was a trannie and wasn't up to much. Would you like me to write a poem for you about how my nephew Angela got sodomised in your local public library?

[cinnarry]

I would be most enchanted dear Barry.
