Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

My milkshake, alas,
Tastes rather salty
Is it a farce
By Basil Fawlty?

  1. David, I see you're able to create "gustatory" pictures too. Or would that be disgustatory?

  2. Why is it that this one reminds me of the time I returned home from somewhere to find that DH had mixed cookie dough to take for cookies to take to a meeting of some sort? It was in the fridge chilling, as that was the next step before baking. Being an inveterate dough taster, I had to have my bite.

    Yeackrhgk! Rather than brown sugar, he had used some beef soup base we had got in the bulk foods. It looked like brown sugar in a plain plastic bag. It wasn't labeled beef soup base. It was really quite dreadful.

  4. Sybil must have slipped it in
    When really it was meant for him!
    She wanted to be free of Basil
    YOU nicked the drink so caused her hassle.
    She'll have to try another day
    To kill him off some other way!

    Salt to taste?
    Such a waste
    for flowery twotty otters ...
    scream and shout,
    then throw it out ...
    you horrid milky rotters!

    When it's bad, it's goooooood!

  6. Good morning, Melbourne! Too bad you had to deal with that disgusting milkshake. ;-( On the other hand, if it makes a poet out of you, you can't possibly refuse the chance.
    Wishing you something better tasting for future inspiration! :-)))

  7. There's salt in my ale,
    A horrible tale!
    It was probably Manuel
    From the Fawlty Hotel

  8. Have you seen American Pie?
    I watched on a Fli(ght)
    In it was a beer
    I fear
    That had been misused
    Or shall I say abused
    I shall spare you with what
    it had been shot
