Some Old Man’s Bunion

I knew an old man with a bunion – it was true, it resembled an onion! Such long hairs did it sprout, that although it did pout, it wore plaits and became a Saint Trinian. By Jay Cool, August 2022 Image by OpenClipart-Vectors from Pixabay

Silly Poem – Late is Late

Late is late and once late there is nothing to be done about it – nothing that can be undone; there it is stuck out there all on it’s own LATE. Copyright owned by The Silly-Savvy Salopian, January 2020 ImageContinue reading “Silly Poem – Late is Late”

Silly Poem – Christmas is Murder

‘I hate Christmas – it’s murder!’ she said. ‘If it wasn’t for breakfast, I’d stay in my bed. Why eat a turkey, for lunch and for tea?

Silly Poem – Didn’t

Inspired by Jessica Rae Bergamino‘s poem ‘Did Rise’. Didn’t get there in time. Didn’t get finished. Didn’t perfect it. Didn’t quite do what others seem to do wholly all of the time. Didn’t anybody else, ever, in the whole of human existence ever get any didn’ts? Don’t get it! Don’t get it at all!Continue reading “Silly Poem – Didn’t”

Silly Poem – Downing It

Drowned, presumably. Drowned in thoughts of my own making, as I down my all, circling around the world, without ever getting to the top of it; instead, being sucked right into it. Right into it and down. All the way down. Right the way down and all the way through its middle. Copyright ownedContinue reading “Silly Poem – Downing It”

Silly Poem – I write, therefore I am not.

Silly Poem – Boxing Day Finale

Inspired by the thrill of seeing out Boxing Day with the weather forecast, followed up by Phillip Schofield doing strange things with a goat. Gloomy, misty and murky out there. But, if I stay in, any spin can win the free delivery of someone like you. Someone like you on a £299Continue reading “Silly Poem – Boxing Day Finale”

So Not Savvy Poem – Stuck

Stuck, tucked in, and cornered, by tree, Prosecco and book. Stuck, booked-in, and staying. Copyright owned by Jay Cool, 26th December 2019 Silly Style – Christmas with Kate & Stacey Silly Boris Romps to Power Silly Writing Tip – How to be an Anomalous Vitruvian …
