A Caveman's Love - For Jan Allison
No Jedi-mindtricks through poetic force,
Nor married women which for blade espouse,
Will see these sexy cheeks that face divorce
Abandon Wookie looks - Adonis vows.
Unless you’ve walked a day without my beard,
And grown exhausted beating off with sticks
The throngs of Starbucks broads smooth-features feared,
Then spare me nicks ‘n cuts by limericks.
It churns my butter blue to render strife
On rare occasions when I tell girls no -
My heart’s too huge for tears, just ask my (ex) wife(s),
Thus on this face, for them, thick hair must grow.
So to my ‘mum’ and Jan who’d have me shave,
I love you both like sinks I won’t deprave.
