Men of Pride.

Little red riding hood.

By Dawn EarnshawPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

I will say so-be-tied to most men of pride should they meet such a woman as you.

Watch out your back pocket!

I’ll bid one and all :

As they bend down to pick up their shoe.

“My wallet has gone !!”

A bystander calls

“She don’t look like she’s waiting for you !”

And by golly she’s not.

She’s off to the shops

To spend all the lolly you’ve earnt”

Well I won’t say ‘I told you so ‘

No need for that.

I’ll just say ‘I thought you’d have learnt !

The blood sweat abd tears

And all of the years

It took you to get where you are.

Not very far but the bus is a drag

Coz my woman as done away with my car.
