NOI-ADMITTANCE-TO-THE-HOTSPOT
They strung along to Stringfellow's
wearing only their string-vests !
Did not get through the door
this gang beating their breasts.
The very-drunk Tarzans after Janes
might've found the jungle best !

and timeless stories
life does some lend !"

A LADY DECK DANCER BE
Don't you treat me like a carpet
that you can walk all over,
but more like the dance deck
to move your body upon, lover !

THE POET AND THE ROSE
The guy was a poet,
his girl was a rose.
He mouthed her breasts,
her belly and her toes.
Ah yes he devoured
as he deflowered.
His words overwhelmed,
yes his poetry overpowered.
He gave vent to volumes
as far as this story... goes !

A-BIG-GIRL-AND-BOY-GAME-YES
The big boy was
playing cricket,
watched by his girl
close to a thicket.
He batted the ball,
the girl caught it.
"Chase me game boy
with a sticky wicket !"

Her game boy chased
without his bat -
and oh what fun -
the girl liked that.
Both his hands free
for a fresh-catch.
"Grab me game boy
when I fall flat !"

ON DANCES DUNCAN ?
Dance in the sunshine
and, yes, in the rain.
Dance on the hillsides
and dance do on the plain.

Dance down the streets,
come dancing up again.
Isadora Duncan, girl,
shall be your new name.

ETERNAL YOUTH
If the apples
of youth were real
would age matter
as to sex appeal ?

LIGHTENING THE VERY
HEAVY LOAD
At the four lane ends
you'll know true friends.
With a so hefty load
at these dark crossroads
which way you wend
only you can decide,
true friends at your side.

A PLIMSOLL PAIR
They were to wine-and-dine
in the Plimsoll Line,
she in her stilettoes,
sea-green frock so fine,
he in his posh shoes
with a polished shine
and a navy blue suit.
They'd a very good time.
Didn't miss the boat
as to bed. It was divine.

THE-BEDEVILLED-VICAR'S-DAUGHTER'S-
CURSE-VERSE
There was a clergyman's daughter
thought she could walk on water.
Vanity and opportunity
did not lead to her slaughter.
She'd still her god on her side,
but was the cause of a wider-divide.

TRADE-WIND-STAR-SIGN-NO ?
I am an Aquarian,
air-sign with the pail.
Find, too, a captain,
on life's sea do I sail.
Wind and water carry me
as my air-sign the pail.

BRANDO AND DEAN
Here's to Marlon Brando
and to James Dean.
Here's beers-and-cheers
to heroes of the silver screen
who gave us youngsters
the golden rebel dreams.

HUNG OVER DOWN UNDER ?
The old drunkard, Denny,
went to spend a penny
and seemingly took his time.
His pal thought this funny
so he looked in the dunny
but Denny couldn't find.
Denny an Australian was.
Had he peed off back-to-Oz ?!

A-MONKEYING-AROUND-AT-
MIDNIGHT-OH-YES
The girl ran away.
A mischievous monkey she
stole into a zoo
and set a real one free.
Yes stole into a zoo
and freed a chimpanzee.
They ran off together,
the girl and the escapee.
Were sought high and low,
under bushes and up trees.
Why'd she run away ?
Why free the chimpanzee ?
Nobody can get to hear,
nobody can get to see.
All I can reveal
she's a mischievous monkey.

IT'S-FAREWELL-MY-BEAUTIFUL-LADY
Bon voyage beauty mine
who had lived in France.
Though it was in Thai-time
we did the boudoir dance -
drank only the rice-wine,
found it a brief romance -
wasn't it truly divine.

IT-NOW-WAS-THE-FREE-JESTS-
ALL-ROUND-FOR-THE-BEERY-LADS
It was in riotous laughter
us drinkers found release.
The landlord - sober as a judge -
didn't call for the police
but barred out we the jokers
just to keep the peace.

AROUND-AND-ABOUT
I can drink with the high-brows
as well as with the low.
I enjoy mixing my company
as I gad about solo.
Life's sure an adventure.
Yes I'm a Marco Polo.

IN-A-FOX-AND-HOUNDS-
PUBLIC-HOUSE-FIND ?
Here comes the proprietress
the pub's landlady in the dress
that never fails to impress
the guys propping up the bar,
each in his hand a pint-jar
of bitter that's tasting sweet
now the landlady's on her feet
pulling levers, pouring beers,
with a smile from ear to ear.
Guys, just do not you hound,
if the fox she sure is found !
