Quirkyalone Day we sat monitering the telly
alone on a Valintines Day had
never been such a chore
Freinds gathered to watch the game and to watch the
fyter-folly bout. They wrested, grappled and boxed.
The karate was sporty, I enjoyed the catch as catch can aspect of the thing myself.
We ate quail and wildrice. Strawberry crumples( suger cookies wrapped with nuts, cream cheese and jam with a fruit)
with wine and icecream. We made a Sporting jesture
from loniliness.
What a grand day my freinds. Bravo to our worthiness!
In this dirty old city that never sleeps at all
West End walking looking 'round for thrills
West End talking meeting all the girls
lights come up as the sun sinks under
East End spending money comes and goes
East End bending breaking all the rules
bright lights blaze on the avenues
dark alley doings going on too
back streets side streets circus or square
striptease sordid Soho sleaze
trains in the underground resound in the air
don't get me wrong like the river life rolls on
opportunities are there ~ there for the taking
never mind another grey rainy day
possibilities are there ~ there for the making
you can't win unless you make your play
London town never lets me down
A zephyr breeze, like a feather so gentle and light,
caresses my face on this summer's night.
Always wanting to play, it dances and sings,
fluttering my leaves, rustling my things.
It tickles my skin with its soft touch,
in ways it knows I love so much.
This zephyr sleaze wants to carry me away,
tempting me with fragrant flowers in bouquet.
But I take far too long to respond
to its wants and pleas to belong.
With a tut tut, the wily wisp moves along
turns its back, shrugs, and is gone.
Please Tease About Being Some Sleaze
Trump's prior secretary said that Cohen
is a sleaze bag. If he is, you can imagine
what Trump is.
With absolute profound perfection please,
Tell me how can Cohen and Trump tease,
Constant pain;
Drive insane,
And also both being big bag full of sleaze.
Jim Horn
Sleaze Bag Who Has Been Inescapable
On long label was willing and able To write a fabulous, funny fable
About rambunctious Betty Grable;
Tore her torso on long leg of table.
Rode away on horse from a stable;
Write this much me she did enable,
Now that I am sturdy and capable;
Sleaze bag who has been inescapable.
James Hilarious Nefarious Horn
