The dark

Posted on August 5, 2018 by carltellstales

I can see in the dark.
Every night I walk around when everyone else is still.
I see the things they choose to ignore as they snore.
I can see in the dark.
I don’t like everything I see, but it’s just for me.
So I walk around in the dark as much as I can.

The plants and animals

Posted on August 5, 2018 by carltellstales

On a warm summer evening
I went out to play in my backyard,
when suddenly I realised
something magical was happening.
All the plants and animals were fucking.
I think.
I’d been drinking.

4/8/18 – Gerwig

Greta Gerwig found a pig
And said: “I shall call you Wig”,
To which the pig did a jig.

Wig jigged and jigged
For Greta Gerwig
And offered her a giant fig.

“Thank you, Wig,” said Greta Gerwig.
“But I do not like the taste of figs,
So get it out of my fucking face.”

3/8/18 – McGinley

John C. McGinley
Couldn’t decide how to have his hair.

Should he keep the curls?
Should he shave it all off?
Perhaps he should grow it.
Perhaps he should dye it.

Then he looked in the mirror
And realised he really didn’t care.

(He put some gel on it, if you’re wondering.)

2/8/18 – Smith

Kevin Smith was cravin’ some raisins.
But the weather was rainin’
And he wasn’t up for bravin’
Leavin’ the safe haven of his home.
So he stayed in alone, picked up his phone
And searched on Deliveroo.
To his fright, the site had few fruity delights
So instead, scoffed his bunny rabbit’s poos.
