March message for May

Posted on March 23, 2019 by twitmericks

A million people today/

Are marching to tell Mrs May/

Her Brexit deal’s dead/

And maybe instead/

The people should have a new say.///

It could be verse

Posted on March 21, 2019 by twitmericks

Prosaic Theresa gets terse/

She sees things can only get worse/

Perhaps, Mrs May,/

World Poetry Day/

Means now is the time to re-verse.///

Mouseproud

A pensioner scratching his head/

About who had tidied his shed,/

By using his nous,/

Discovered a mouse/

That didn’t like mess near its bed.///

Ewes it or lose it

Posted on March 18, 2019 by twitmericks

Some 56 ewes went to term,/

Australian farmers confirm,/

Each bearing a lamb,/

From one long-dead ram,/

By means of some very old sperm.///

Period piece

Dmitry was ever so able:/

He dreamed up, or so goes the fable,/

A way, by formatinum,/

Lead, zinc, carbon, platinum/

Et al might appear in a table.///

Putting the F in fibre

Posted on March 15, 2019 by twitmericks

I’m sorry my speech is so rude,/

It’s not me but rather my food,/

Our ancestors’ diet/

Accounting for why it/

Is frequently fucking well crude.///

May not last

Posted on March 14, 2019 by twitmericks

MPs gave their backing today/

To seeking a Brexit delay:/

As this month’s too soon,/

They’ll try end of June,/

(Before which will come end of May).///

Pecking order reversed

Posted on March 13, 2019 by twitmericks

A fox who thought chickens were weak/

Discovered the harm they can wreak/

For once in their pen/

He found that the hen/

Is made with a very sharp beak.///

The brex files

Posted on March 12, 2019 by twitmericks

Things are moving pretty fast these days… by the time I came to post this afternoon’s tweet it had been overtaken by tonight’s. Both follow:

The PM went over to France/

And got some new words to enhance/

The deal she’d deliver/

But most will still give her/

A snowball in hell’s kind of chance.

* **

Theresa might feel on reflection/

Another decisive rejection/

In this Commons vote/

Means time to take note/

By calling a general election.///

Florida gets torrider

Posted on March 10, 2019 by twitmericks

A Florida spa parlour owner/

And recent Republican donor/

Sells clients a hump/

Or access to Trump,/

Whichever will give them a boner.///
