Doggy Style

Satire

Doggy Style

 
 
What is poetry?
it’s when I’m inspired to reflect
on things I see around me
observation of sorts
let me give you an example,
 
Why does this beautiful lady
that's sitting next to me on the bus have a Prada bag?
 
 if she has a Prada bag doesn’t she own a car?
 
is her Porsche in her garage, broken down?
maybe she doesn’t have a car?
 
those posh bags cost a fortune
maybe she had to choose between the bag and the car?
 
 
then I start questioning…
why don’t I have a posh bag?  
well, poets don’t need material objects or, are all poet’s poor?
  
It doesn’t matter what a bag is called right?
 
so just when I'm answering my own questions 
 
the ugliest little dog pokes his head out
from under the loose diamond zip
 
my mind is now in overdrive…
so then I find myself reflecting on this point...
 
why on earth, would any woman in the world
spend that much money on a handbag
 
just to have it filled up with dog shit?

I'm 17. My dad's Dad asks me What do I want to be? At 17 I know. I say, I'll be a Poet! He replies, 'So you take an oath of Poverty, then?'

dear Rory, but we are so much richer without the sauce aren't we. I'd rather be a poor poet rather than someone who spends money on ridiculous things, ps I'm writing this from my yaught lol. Thank you so much and your dad was very wise but you even more so as at 17 you knew and here you are, reading my scribbles and indeed writing your own . 🤣 🌹  PPS my mother always told me i was a poet.
