Box of Tricks

Five poems. Wow.

Computer

Dedicated to those poor people to whom you often have to say "Frog Box!"

My computer is amazing!
It's got five million gigasomethings

Of memory in it's drives

And it's even got a super thingumybob

My computer is the coolest!

It has screen sixty miles wide

Thinner than a piece of paper

And it's made by What'stheirname too!

My computer is incredible!

It has a two billion bit something

And a speaker system that would have cost me

Over twenty-six million to buy!

(But I got it free)

My computer is fantastic!

It can play any movie on DVD

It can also balance your chequebook

And invent scientific theories!

My computer is the best!

It'll cook my meals! Clean my room!

It can even do all my homework!

And contact alien life forms!

My computer's so great!

I just have to click this button

And fiddle with a cable or two...

Aha!

Oh.

It crashed.

The Middle End

Dedicated to no-one.

The middle of the end

Is a place no-one wants to be trapped

Where no-one wants to go

Where no-one wants to be

If you're stuck in the middle of the end

You'll never know where you are

Because you're not quite by the middle

And the end's not very far

If the middle of the end is the middle

Then throw Dale Winton away

He'll always land somewhere

Where no-one wants to go

Never is the case good

If you can't find your way out

Of the middle end

Where life is but a drain.

Pull out the plughole, my friend

And never go there again.

An Explanation

Dedicated to me, myself and an igloo.

I feel I should explain

Why sometimes, in the rain

I feel a sudden urge to explode.

 

I never predicted

I would be so conflicted

As to go BANG! In the middle of the road.

Nothing

Dedicated to myself.

I have nothing to write

And nothing to say

So instead

I will talk about nothing.

Nothing.

Nothing.

Nothing.

Ping.

The End of Time.

Monkey Nuts

Dedicated to those cute little monkeys at Longleat who love to destroy your vehicle.

(Especially the windscreen wipers)

Monkeys are delectable things

But no-one would eat one

Except maybe a lion

Roar

I am not a lion.

I am a vegetarian

You could argue that vegetables are people too

But that would be silly

If I had a monkey

I would not eat it

I would keep it

And feed it bananas

It could live in one of my trees

If it promised not to explode

And if it didn't go flying

Or it would go splat on the pavement.
