Just Write

The challenge... to write a whole load of sh*te No sense and no meaning, no thought waves to fight Don’t think it, don’t plan it, don’t jot down a draft Don’t worry that what you write might turn out daft... Well, me and a teddy had been going steady And when she was ready she yelled Gee up Neddy That bear didn’t care, that we were a pair Although she was there wearing no underwear A fellow called Keith slipped her a leaf To cover her tummy and what lay beneath She growled that’s not funny, then choked on her honey I hope I inherit all of her money So this might be sh*tty, it may not be gritty And if you don’t like it, well, that’s just a pity For, yes, I have written some garbage for you But that’s what the sponsor has told me to do 2 January 2021 For Contest: Just Thinkin Sponsor: John Lawless

Didn't exactly ask for a load of garbage but I did find this a very interesting take on the contest theme. I had a few chuckles while reading it. thanks for participating in the contest...i think....

Honestly, no offence meant. Simply wrote in one straight draft. The only concession I allowed myself was changing the bear to female. Glad you had a chuckle... you might gather I wasn’t taking myself too seriously. Thanks for not banning me for life. ;)
