ORRECTION:

In the OVERBEARING-LOVE-VERSE it should be 'barely' breathe, not 'hardly' breathe, for alliteration purposes, and to hint at nakedness?!

FAINT-FEMALE
He stood up for you,
you sat down for him
pale ghost-of-a-memory, girl,
that is surely vanishing.

READ ALL ABOUT IT
It's for news, for news,
he will turn a trick,
the daily-paper hound
who's like a private dick.

It's for info, for info,
the vast public's need.
Gas, gossip, grains of truth
can do; to read.

OVERBEARING-LOVE-VERSE
Louise, Louise,
was the guy's squeeze.
He'd hold her tight
both day and night.
She could hardly breathe.

Yes Louise, Louise,
was the guy's squeeze.
Too much affection
and physical connection
surely nobody frees.

DOGGED-BY-A-DEMON-GIRL
Witch ! Witch ! Witch !
Female-dog; bitch !
Turn back into a damn frog.
Don't you be my black dog !

ON-BURNS'S-BACK
Wordsworth and Keats came to see
the pauper's grave of poet Robbie
though Burns is now an industry !

MORGAN-AND-MERLINS
She's Morgan Le Fay
(Morgan the Fairy).
Watch-out you wizards.
Beware the dragony-lady !

A CHERRY ON TOP
The cherry-blonde
I picked, I plucked
as from a tree,
but was not struck
that after so hot a bake
this cherry topped the cake !

SOUL-SELLERS?
Not everyone can write a book,
but many have a story to tell,
be it about their own lives or another's,
not that it could to the listener sell.
Too many a tale told is a lie.
I used to trust, now don't always buy.
