CACTOBLASTIS

Cactoblastis??!!

" I can`t write about this .... !!

Oh flippin` heck and damn and blast it ....!!

That good idea`s just gone right past me !!

The plot ....? !!  oh bloody hell yes ! ....I`ve obviously lost it !!! "

" I`m telling you woman.... listen to me ....!! it`s a flippin` cactus... !!

Think about it...! "

" Is it ....??!!

But Just thinking about it makes me itchy!!

" How hard can it be to describe a flippin cactus ..... woman? "

" Ooh! you want me to describe it? !!

Oh gosh!! "

" It`s in the dictionary!! "

" Oh! .... really?!!

I can`t find it!

Damn and blast it!! "

" But they do exist dear.....?! "

" Not in my dictionary they don`t !!

According to my teacher, Mr Kightly !!

Who natters on about them expertly ..... !!

The thing`s green and spiky in appearance!!

Isn`t it??? "

" Yes... and tall and stately "

" Is it really?? ....!!! "

" YES!!! "

" But I`ve gone and lost the flippin` dictionary now....!!!

Oh sod it...!!

As they say at Lord`s ....!!!

That`s just not cricket !!

" Hee hee!!! that`s in the bloody dictionary ..... !!! "

My collage teacher challenged me to write a poem about Cactoblastis because I`d never heard of them before!!!!
