it’s not the road works themselves I mind so much
It’s that they’re never filling the bloody Potholes in
NO FRILLS, MORE BILLS
No frills airlines will get your money
My fair means or by foul
This may mean them charging you
If you need a paper towel
Or if decompression occurs
And the oxygen mask is hanging there
You will have to put a pound coin in
Before it dispenses any air
THE TOM TOM BLUES
I want to get a Tom Tom
Or any make of Satnav
But my lady wife won’t hear of it
Not all the time I have
Her to map read for me
And give me vague directions
Saying left instead of right
At all the intersections
But it’s always my fault
When we take another detour
Though it’s her not paying attention
I don’t want to do this anymore
For she doesn’t really map read
She only reads her women’s mag
But that’s what I’m stuck with
A fifty year old sat nag
THE DEATH OF DREAMS
He leaves her house
Saying goodnight at the door
And heads homeward
Like so many times before
She has another drink?
Or snorts another line?
No need for a cab
She thinks she’ll be fine
On his lips is the taste
Of his loves last kiss
As he peddles ever onward
Towards the abyss
She drives like a demon
Without any care
Racing over the bridge
Not seeing him there
There is only one winner
When the two come together
Only one outcome
A young man lost forever
In the laws eyes he died a boy
Three days short of being a man
But a very mature boy
A young man with a plan
His life had a purpose
Plans and dreams to be achieved
But his dreams died with him
And they too should be grieved
Too young, too young
To leave dreams unfulfilled
Too soon, too soon
For a young man to be killed
