Short Story Poem Podcast 5

As I am away this week and might not have time to write a story  I am doing something a bit different. I’m sharing with you my short story poems. A short story poem is a sort of combination of a poem and a short story. I am not really a poet but I hope these make you smile.

Meaningless

So drunk

As a skunk

Or another

Conveniently rhyming

Mammal.

Cos when

Did you last see

a skunk

Drunk?

I rest my case.

Heartache

Tea for two

but you

have gone

so tea for me,

that’s tea for one.

High Cholesterol

Hi Cholesterol

goodbye bacon.

Dungarees

I have to say

the way

she wears her dungarees

makes my knees

go weak.

My heart

beat faster.

I can't see passed

her beauty

a cutie in dungarees.

The Wilds of Facebook

He only comments

on his girlfriend's posts

once I've already commented.

Classic animal behaviour;

rutting,

strutting

marking territory.

Reminding me,

who's alpha male around here ...

or so he thinks.

Paternoster

Love’s like a paternoster.

It has its ups and downs

but it never stops.

And it’s made for two people

but sometimes a third squeezes in.
