Our teacher, though openly gay,
Had an authoritarian way.
He'd mince down an aisle
With a menacing smile,
And none of us dared disobey.

If you're used to a nice leafy view,
You're likely to get in a stew
When builders come round
And level the ground
Where flowers and shrubbery grew.

A grievance, if zealously nursed,
Can motivate murder at worst.
The most gripping plays
Examine the ways
Such vengeance is planned and rehearsed.

Our ancestors feared to espy
Uncommon events in the sky.
From all that we've learned,
We are now unconcerned;
We pass such phenomena by.

I went for a tankard of ale
In a picturesque pub in a vale.
A tapestry showed
The Yellow Brick Road,
Which was nice, but the food was all stale.

The lawyer began his oration:
"The subject of this litigation
Is liquid from cans
That ignites frying-pans.
My client demands compensation".

"Now, madam", exclaimed the magician,
"Please lie in a supine position.
I'll cut you in half,
And then, for a laugh,
I'll saw off your head in addition".

There was an old fellow called Andy
Who reckoned that jogging was dandy,
But ocular blight
Could hamper his sight,
So he found a strong crash helmet handy.

He sat in his ketch reading Kipling
And watching the calm waters rippling.
As a speedboat went past,
He exclaimed "Life's too fast!"
And pulled out a can for some tippling.

When she did secretarial work,
Her boss was a lecher who'd lurk
With no sense of shame
And call out her name
In a lewd tone of voice. What a jerk!
