No Noble Rot



 


 







You lift your sniffy nose up high again.
D’you do it every time you’re in the shop
or only when your mood’s about to flop?
Perhaps you’re not far off from needing Zen
to calm yourself when stropping next to Ken
who grabs for goodies, won’t come to a stop,
then crams himself till he’s about to drop.
His stomach aches, he moans. Ignore it. Men!
I’m crying out in need for my lost cream
as well, deprived of stuff that makes me whole.
I stand here hard as chalk, but they all seem
to think I’ll sell, so that’s to be my role.
They’re hoping dozy men stay in a dream
like Ken who’s madly scoffing buns, poor soul.
