Less
My mum used to say “don't be gormless!”
but I've never met someone with gorm,
so I really don't know if I'm different to them
or if I am, this is the norm?
My friend says his wife can be ruthless,
but no-one I know of has ruth,
although back when I was around twenty-two
I dated one, that is the truth.
I think sometimes I can be reckless,
I've looked for my reck but it's gone,
maybe I can't find it because I'm inept
so I'll just be outept from now on.
