Poem for all the WOL biscuit dunkers

When Your Biscuit Falls Into Your Drink

It should never happen to anyone, let alone me
The day my biscuit dropped into my tea
I couldn't take it out and I had no access to a spoon
So I couldn't take it out, therefore it stayed marooned
At the bottom of my cup, destroying the taste
But I hated to see a cuppa go to waste
So I downed the drink all in one
And I wretched and I gipped until the taste was gone
Shortly the vile after-taste went away
But that experience really ruined my day
Now I've had a load of things happen in my life
And I've had my fair share of trouble and strife
But one of the worst things that ever happened to me
Was when my biscuit fell into my tea
I've being mugged and threatened and mentally abused
I've fallen in love with people only to end up being used
I've seen friends get buried and others locked up
But that doesn't even compare to the torment of dropping a biscuit in my cup
I've drank so much that my liver couldn't cope
I've been so ill that doctors gave up hope
But none of that's as bad as the time I threw up
After eating the remains of the biscuit in my cup
Now you may think that I'm taking this too far
And I know you will find this poem a little bit bazaar
But for me, death, betrayal and needless wars
All that stuff just seems to pause
Call it madness or insanity
But nothing else matters until that biscuit is out of my tea!

Hehe! I really enjoyed re-reading that poem and picking up on all the different stuff in it, like 'mugged' and 'marooned' that I originally read as 'macaroon'! :)

Baby my eyesight is so bad, when I had an appointment at specsavers I couldn't find it and when I asked for directions the woman said to me - you don't need an eye test I can tell you your eye sight is poo, yes you guessed it I was standing outside specsavers but my darling boy - the pic is a bit blurry so I had a very good look thinking it was my eyesight and no indeedy you are a handsome devil and a witty one and if you keep putting yourself down i'll put you over my knee!
Right enough of my sexual fantasies, I really must attempt to get out more.lol.xxx
Seriously Cayn, you are gorgeous and funny and I hope your lass appreciates you because you are unique and I mean that in a very good way.
much love to you my snookums.
