Old Bat

The old bat is in the kitchen, She is buggering shallots, The cat in the bag is bitchin, Cos she has the bloody hots, She aint a getting it not. Old bat is burning water, The burnt rice hits the floor, Old bat wants a daughter, But hubby isn’t sorta, If he oughta. Fowls are in the kitchen, A pecking at the rice, Old bat has scruffed the milkman, Who is not very nice, But he’s wearing old spice:) Don Johnson 2-aug-11 Hangin' in there Enter Contest [Enter Contest] Sponsored by: Francine Roberts

Aussies in a hate relationship, call the wife the old bat, so it's education of my nation foibles and nuances. Here its normal to call a mate old B. old Mongrel etc no offence. Imagination rules the poetry, love, Don

This is almost nursery rhyme-ish... or not. Either way, a fun read. Good luck in the contest!
