Who doesn't like a 3-liner? (Quite a few of you don't, apparently.) Well, I'll have you know that many a critic has said of my work "at least it's in English" - and as for the great Stephen Fry, he once said of me "Vincent who?" Let's just say I supply the litter to the litterati [sic - but only at times] - ie: I write rubbish. But rubbish mostly inspired by the HAIKU, the 17th Century Japanese verse form consisting of 3 lines and 17 (5-7-5) syllables. (WARNING: flash photography and limericks)

wants to neuter us!...

Dendrochronology, by any other name...
---------------------------------------
How can I tell how
old this phone is, dad?" - "Maybe
try counting the rings?"...

Time To Face The Music...

Just because lead is
dense, it doesn't mean to say
that lead singers are.

Who wants tea when you
can have an 'Iced Pecan Crunch
Oatmilk Latte? - "ME!"

want to be helpful, while abscess is said to make the
heart grow fonder. You're welcome...

How poor are our politicians?...
-----------------------------------------
Running a bath is
great - unlike the shower that's
running our country...
-------------------------------------
To colour your memories green
Is silly if they cannot be seen,
Like stroking the fog
Or knitting a log
(And dreaming of Idi Amin?)
Alternative ending: Then doffing your hat to a bean.

My younger sister
married a German shepherd
last year. Puppy love.
----------------------------------------------------
I'm one of the few who hasn't a phone,
(Only a landline, that's all that I've known)
I squander my savings
On indulgence and cravings,
Like biscuits and candy and eau de cologne.

Whatever Happened to 'Everything in Moderation'?

You might still die - but only of laughter...

Antidepressants?
None are quite as effective

iPhones, Cell phones & Homophones...

Though SARDINES in cans
look fine, actresses in Cannes
seem quite overdressed...
