Of my old school mates
cheeky John Doody
from Ascot Vale West
I remember best
one of the great heroes
from the West Gate Bridge disaster.

Green grass, cut once or twice weekly
A CEO might shave twice a day
Edges and hedges trimmed nicely too
Manicure, pedicure in seven days due
Rolling lawns with everything just so
Like the ascot of the CEO
If underneath lurks mud, ooze and slime ~
Grounds for the perps to do time

Fancies
Hats worn sidesaddle sporting feathers, cornflowers
Whimsy rides in sequins, ribbons and plumes
Small or broad brimmed, laces form floating towers
Swooping pillboxes off to the races clad in blooms
Dedicated to the fanciful hats called Fancies worn at the Kentucky Derby and Royal Ascot Races.

I've posted a piece, called "mean girl," that's longer than the poetry section allows.
In the "Short Story" section.
I know I could take things out - to make the piece shorter and force it to fit in the poems section - but that length seems arbitrary. *shrug*
