Blue Loon

Posted on May 19, 2013 by twitmericks

A Tory grandee who lampoons/

The members as swivel-eyed loons/

Is speaking the mind,/

I think you will find,/

Of various top Cameroons.

Farage Farrago

Posted on May 17, 2013 by twitmericks

There once was a top UKIP chief/

Whose Scottish campaign came to grief/

Farage had to scrub/

His gig in a pub/

As coppers provided relief.

Bye Bye Beckham

Posted on May 16, 2013 by twitmericks

A footballing giant named Becks/

Is trading his shorts for long kecks/

He exits the pitch/

Amazingly rich/

With no end in sight to the cheques.

Hong Kong Hooey

There was an old man from Hong Kong
Who tended to speak thru his dong
Saying rapists abuse
Because women booze
A comment demonstrably wrong.

Star Man

There once was an old Bowie fan
In space in a real tin can
& so thinking “Sod It!”, he
Covered Space Oddity
Then fell to earth like The Man.

Man City Manager Mancini Mismanaged

Posted on May 14, 2013 by twitmericks
Roberto Mancini of Italy
Is leaving Man City quite bitterly
Despite a big payoff
The manager’s layoff
Was not done especially prettily.

Ex-con Exes

Posted on May 13, 2013 by twitmericks
There was an ex-husband and wife
Brought low by their marital strife
The pair of old lags
Now out wearing tags
Emerge to a different life.

Sharif the Chief

Posted on May 12, 2013 by twitmericks

A fellow named Nawaz Sharif/

Is set to be Pakistan’s chief./

He staged a revival,/

Upstaging his rival,/

To old Imran Khan’s disbelief.

Wigan Peerless

Posted on May 11, 2013 by twitmericks
The cup-winners Wigan Athletic,
Frenetic and most energetic,
Defeated Man City
Who looked pretty shitty
Or anyway rather pathetic.
