Recovering From the Night Before
RECOVERING FROM THE NIGHT BEFORE
Remphan now sitting at home, his bunions not half giving him jip
Looking at the cat, the cat looking at him, I’ll have less of your lip
The cat scarpers before he gets the back end of Remphan’s shoe
Which just happened to be a size 8 stiletto of sea green and blue
As tatted fishnet stockings lie draped across the back of the chair
Remphan reminds himself next time to buy, a much stronger pair
With his lipstick all smudged & eye makeup half way down his face
At what was in all honestly nothing short of being a total disgrace
On cocking his leg over the sofa he lies back and wonders on it all
That randy male bouncer who pinched his a**, tut’, had some gall
No time for nods: the early morning alarm clock, is about to go off
Into the shower to start a brand new day, feed the cat some scoff
Now in more norm clothes, shoes; with makeup & hair re-arranged
Off to work: and sitting behind the desk as if nothing had changed
"To know him, is to love him" . . . ; )
