...........why do people
keep
interrupting
my flow
like an enlarged prostate
when all I want
is
to be
a poem.................

[Andrew McGeever]

Dear Red Poppy,
I'd rather be an enlarged prostate than a poem: there are cures for enlarged prostates ( men of a certain age tend to jump the queue), but there's no cure for poetry: trust me, I've been in both places, but thankfully not simultaneously.
I trust this sheds some light on this thread

Andrew.

pees come dropping slowly ........

Sweet relief Andrew.
Thank you!

Poppy, Andrew seems to know insults and truth are one.
Where's the barman, chaps?
My shout!

Dear Andrew,
I like your avatar.

[Andrew McGeever]

Dear Manna,
It isn't me!
It's the highly talented Irish singer/songwriter Shane MacGowan.

very late edit: after all this time, I've decided to do away with my little comedy bit here.. it had to do with the "Looking for a sign" thread, to those curious..
