Dignity

Oh to have half the dignity
Of a bum

Rear View


I saw the back of my head in a pic
and didn't like the look of it.
Though I wasn't bothered for too long
Out of sight
Out of mind

Hot Cat

In winter
My cat doubles as a hot water bottle
But instead of hot water
He takes flaked tuna and salmon

Fashionista

There's a pretty girl sitting
on a sunny, park bench
dressed in Missoni.
"Oh?" cooed the pigeon,
"I was sure it was von Furstenberg."

Guitar

I bought a guitar
It cost me a lot
I can't play a chord
But damn it looks hot
next to the piano

Three Veg

Onions make me cry
But some vegetables
Make me very happy

Self-Conscious

I plan on shuffling away
from this unflattering light
I'm hoping you won't notice
The sudden improvement

The Busker

He plugged in his amp at Martin Place
his hair in a floppy beanie
And just as the crowd was starting to build
Up sprang a law-making meanie
"I am the music police," he said
"now pack up and move along!"
And when he released his first album
that cop was the star
of his best selling song

My Cat

My cat looks like something
The cat dragged in

Louboutins


I wore my Louboutins to the library
They made a lot of noise

To-Do

I would be lying
If crossing things off my to-do list
Wasn't thoroughly satisfying

Snapshot

I saw your face in a holiday snapshot
You weren't alone but,
you looked lonely
And I wondered
If you felt that way
