Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

The Decorator

When this fellow is upset

he gets all emulsional

Instead of telling the truth he

Always glosses things over

 

In Preparation

For a good night out, he starts

Stripping off his work clothes

Brushes his hair

Then climbs into his flashy new Roller

 

He’s gagging for a drink

His throat feels like sandpaper

Before long, he’s steaming drunk

Then, uses a cheesy line

that his dance partner

has a Ladder in her tights

Which needs Filling in

 

So he offers her some masking tape

The night ends in a great finish

Overall, a really colourfulglossy night out

But he has to be quiet getting in so late

A bit like walking on Eggshell

Nice one.
I'm familiar with all those term-my dad left school to work as a painter and decorators apprentice.
Our house was never the same colour for long.😊
