The Narrow Squeak Show Chapter 5
Now,where was I?
Oh yes!
Safely strapped inside.........
Lets see this baby fly
This gravity is a tricky thing...........
Very heavy stuff
I feel so alive!
C'mon!, let me drive!
I counted down too............
and with an explosive sound
We were off the ground
How fast can it do?
I was pinned back.....
Deep into my seat
I thought it was the weight ,
of my treasure sack
I was in for a treat!
The chap up front........
Said c'mon up!
Don't be shy!
See how it can fly!
I pressed something green......
then something red...............
Everything went haywire
I really was in the mire
If you know what I mean
That something red............
Ticked off that chap instead
What a quality of service!
I must have made him nervous!
Now, I was thinking
All this floating.........
That chap up front..........
Gloating!
What's it all about
Some chav upfront?
The man's a lout!
Well, it's time to get off
So I put on this padded suit.........
Ready to scoot.........
When that chap upfront
Gave me the boot!
Luckily I have my bullet charm
So, I will come to know harm
Down I went!
I didn't want to be here.......
Nearly bought the farm,
burning a hole ,
through the atmosphere!
I know I will arrive
Very much alive
Avoiding the river Styx
Why?
I must write chapter six!
