lol sorry Dizzi, wasn't about you neever ;)

how's your mouth? hope you didn't bash yourself up too much...nothing worse than that feeling of falling and not being able to stop yourself. My mum did it half way down the stairs at a station once, one minute there the next at the bottom, smashed her glasses and nasty gashes .

Can I just point out that the 'She' of my poem is me.."the man" and "the girl" could be any one of a number (on this site as many others, on the internet in general) ...as could 'Thelma and Louise' though I did have some one and a situation specifically in mind re that line ...

weary sigh... it's a poem... poets, even bad ones like me, take bits of their life and mash em up in rhyme....

Good morning RR and other poets, you are all so so brilliant.

Just discovered that a very distant rellie (1888-1976) who was at Cambridge and was a poet under her maiden name and her two married names. It is too far removed to rub off on me but fascinating to research!

They come they go and then return,
Another guise to cause you harm.
Spite abound to make you flee,
They feel safe, think we cant see,
Though be aware some friends arent true,
One day they'll turn their crap on you.

well done RR and The man,#####

Nice one Rose :-)

Inspired me to pen a quicky.......

A site to seek for those long gone
That’s used by those who’ve searched so long
To find that long dead ancestor
Uncles, Aunts and many more.
But sadly quite a few forget
That this is just the internet.

So to the chat room they migrate
And wondrous subjects we debate.
Urban myths and legends too
And many other types of woo.
But sadly quite a few forget
That this is just the internet.

A strange affliction, lots of spots
In nether regions – join the dots
And see what figure might appear -
Jesus on your derriere!
But sadly quite a few forget
That this is just the internet.

Advice requests of many sorts
Will get replies and lot of thoughts
Weather forecasts, daily news
Bring us up to date with views.
But sadly quite a few forget
That this is just the internet.

Best of all the psychics threads
People who speak to the dead!
Spirits, ghosts - a scary sight
To greet you in the dead of night!
But sadly quite a few forget
That this is just the internet.

Who said what to who and why
It’s enough to make you cry.
Libel, slander, its untrue!
One more word and I’ll sue you!
But sadly quite a few forget
That this is just the internet.

inspired (if that's the word lol) by our own dear Thelma and Louise :))


She joined for genealogy
But stayed for geniality
Interspersed with bouts of internecine strife.
The who’s and what’s and why’s
Really opened up her eyes
And the website soon became a way of life.
She learned that sex came cheap
In the PM’s that she’d reap
‘Urban dictionary’ explained the terms within
She learned the cyber lingo
And was introduced, by jingo!
To the vagaries, veneers and venal sin.
All of which she took
As inspiration for her book.
I wonder if her characters will please?
The man who’ll be the villain
The girl who’s just too willin’
And the dames who play at ‘Thelma and Louise‘.
The complications double
As she tries to dodge the trouble
By taking what she terms the middle road
But some say she’s a ‘sucker’
And some say she’s the ‘mucker’
Of the people they would like to see explode.
It’s hard for her to judge
Just who bears who a grudge
It seems to alter on a daily basis
Sometimes she feels it’s true
they resemble Dr Who
transforming through galactic metastasis.
Do I think she rues the day
A computer came her way
And to the cyber-world she was invited?
No I don’t think that she does
For she still enjoys the buzz
Of the special place that is Genes Reunited
