The Lay of The Best Man - Part One

Twisted, fuming with anger, and consumed with rage
Callous and cruel...

Everything orderly
Perfect and pristine
Guests were all greeted
As if best friends
Little did they realise
This would come to an end
The spread upon the table
A glorious feast indeed
All looked scrumptious
On which an army...

This is the curse when you try to change the world
Gave Mary just a slight hint Tony might be bedding Jill, Joan, not excluding Alice

You’ve given me another year
365 blank pages
To fill up
I know that your ultimate desire
Is for me to fill them in ways

I thought to help the wife
I got the vacuum out
A little run about
I plugged it in the wall
Odd, no sound at all
It must have blown a fuse
So I undid all the...

The Australian National Plan makes no common sense,
Are these people really that dense? 
All of them are lying about the vaccine
It does not stop you for getting covid 19

At a friends house par-tay
She danced gracefully
Me, geriatrically 
I liked the way she looked
Like bait, I was hooked!
When she left, I got plastered
Woke up like a useless bastard
Realizing I’d forgotten
What...
