Trixie At the Peppermint Panda

Dank club Beasts' hub Sleazy Queasy False smiles Damp tiles Lights dimmed Eight-limbed Client? Pliant. Tawdry Bawdry Creased notes Fiend gloats Cash gripped Head dipped Lewd song Will strong Gyrates Primates! All stare Rent bare Whistles Bristles Tunes cease No peace Rump pawed Applaud Defile Fight bile Soul stabbed Clothes grabbed Backstage Does rage Crushed dream Tears stream ----------------- * "Peppermint Panda" is a riff on a London-based 'Gentlemen's club'. 3 November 2017

At long, long last it all comes out -- the tide has been turned! Well done you for helping, in your small...but important way, to highlight this bl..dy awful malaise; indeed it should have been stamped out years ago. My best regards, John. :) john

An insight into what goes on in full view and off stage, John. A clever string of footless. I see that the previous contest has brought you fresh inspiration! Regards // paul
