Holiday Romance

East coast geezers.

Overspill resort towns.

Ten a penny,

Jack the Lads.

 

Looking for some

'Ow's yer farva,

Behind the arcade

Just for amusement.

 

Giving it large:

Small-town Lothario.

Quite convincing.

Don't get snared.

 

He's the hunter.

You are the prey.

The trophy to

Impress his mates.

 

Says he loves you.

Tongue down your throat.

His dirty fingers

Up your skirt.

 

He'll lay you

Then he'll leave you

A dose or something

More permanent.

Hi Adam....(the shortest poem ever is 'Adam - Ad'em'...)

'Yes us 'diamond geezers'
and Knights of the 'frog n toads'
when on a night out in Wappin'-
when pissed up will stuff even a frog -
if they can stop it Hoppin'
tha' knows.'

But seriously Adam you would think that the 'unfortunate' girl/woman/lady would see it coming?
(sorry no pun intended...but it does take two to Tango)

I think your poem brings over a very real threat - today!

Regards - Graham

Hard-hitting subject, and too true. If only this poem could be posted like "Lost Pets', all over the typical resort town. The title is really good, especially the lance at 'Romance'. How pitiful are those females, almost more so than the 'trophy-hunting Lothario'.
