Bus Stopped

i found a second hand cough

wrapped up in a tissue

on the bench

at the bus stop

i left it

i've four of my own

at home

my teddy bear

needs new contacts

according to the linen press

i knew he looked funny

but i thought

that was all me

while i was on the bus

i gave my seat

to a pensioner

lucky i had a spanner

in my pocket

the last two nuts

were really hard

the vet said my dog

had hard nuts

that’s why he walked funny

not funny ha ha

but funny more like tatty bunny rabbit slippers

i alighted the bus jerk joke less

i thought to myself for a second

why am i at another bus stop?

i own a perfectly good automobile

i like cats

i am concerned now

in order to not be here

i need another bus

but that

will just take me

…

to :

1. Nudy Bar

2. Velvet Art Store

3. A pastoral existence

4. Bus stop

(number two would be sweet

- fuzzy glow in the dark Elvis poster

no googly eyes on that bad boy)

but no

a bus stop

i think i'll walk
