Thoughts on a Boring Day

Haunches and Paunches

It’s strange to say,
but people who sit on their haunches
develop fat paunches
but, say, isn’t it usually the other way?


Definition

Procrastination is
a synonym for pure laziness
without, however,
the indecision of the former. 


Unhappy

Do you wake up every day
bereaved in sorrow,
because yesterday passed away
and today will tomorrow?


Truism

In the matter of sexuality
men prefer promiscuity
to unguarded adultery:
the first allows selectivity
the second, the notoriety
of damaging publicity.


His Libido

Her husband’s libido works like sap,
rising only in the spring, and slow at that.


Food for Thought or Nought?

Given all the choicest of foods we eat,
and what it becomes in the end,
shouldn’t it make us wonder what it is we eat,
and is it worth the money we spend?
