IMMUNE – INAPPROPRIATE

Just one inappropriate word
That a member of staff may have heard
Can get you the sack
And you'll never come back,
For no-one's immune. It's absurd!

A patient who had tonsillitis
Went on to develop bronchitis.
When his memory failed,
The Grim Reaper prevailed,
And he died of acute meningitis.

Some kids just like keeping the ball;
They won't pass to teammates at all.
They only want goals,
Not tedious roles
Where the chances of scoring are small.

If your dog likes to scamper around
And scatter small toys on the ground,
Adopt a brisk tone
And throw it a bone.
It's very effective, I've found.

Americans tend to abominate
Prefixed feudal titles to nominate
Great people (like 'Sir'),
Which in Britain occur
A lot, as traditions predominate.
