Now She’s in Purple, Now She’s a Turtle*

A turtle in Queensland,/

Australia Resembles a punk, only scalier,/

With bright green Mohican,/

In streams he or she can/

Draw breath using gilled genitalia.///

*The only punk/turtle link that came to mind was this lyric from Christine, by Siouxsie and the Banshees. Shame the colour’s wrong.

A short social media quiz:/

Were you kept in the dark/

About the fact harvesting biz?”///

A new operation/
In some Mideast nation -/

Is that Badenoch For You?

MP Kemi Badenoch hacked/

A rival, a criminal act/

The Tory vice-chair/

Decided to share;/

If lucky, she’ll only be sacked.///

A hotel has lifted a ban/

Imposed on a Halifax man/

Whose sausage mishap/

Brought seagulls to crap,/

At which point the shit hit the fan.///

Crap Story

Prince Charles says it’s crap and untrue/

That when he has business to do/

And people to meet/

He takes his own seat/

For use on an overseas loo.///

Poor Match

When Tinder saw Manchester City,/

The team at first sight looked quite pretty;/

The two both swiped right,/

But after last night/

The app will just shag out of pity.///

Liar, Liar…

Old Boris the would-be high-flier/

Is known as a frequent supplier/

Of dubious fallacies,/

Forensic analyses/

Revealing his pants are on fire.///

Chicken Run

When Inge the hen got a hunch/

She might become somebody’s lunch/

She fled in alarm/

To head for the farm,/

Rejoining the rest of the bunch.///

Makes democrats feel rather quisi/
The lack of a rival/
Ensures his survival/
And makes reelection quite isi.///
