Dulce Et Decorum Est

There was a young woman called Jessie
Who thought she was all poetessy
"It's fun, lads," she said
"When Fritz shoots you dead!"
Please tell her that gas is more messy.

A bloke from a faraway land
Said 'an old statue's out there in the sand'
Ozzymandius it were
Saying I should despair
Well it's not like he were too grand!

On First Looking Into Chapman's Homer

A well-seasoned traveller, me
I've seen a fine kingdom or three
But none worth a look
Next to reading this book
You'll think you've discovered a sea!

Bells clang in the old house of God.
They're off home, down a path that's well trod:
The feller that ploughs
And a number of cows,
Leaving muggins here all on his todd.

To His Coy Mistress
Now why all this silly delay?
What of time's wingèd chariot, eh?
You're a damn long time dead
That's what I've always said.
Come along now, I've not got all day.

Erm...it's not a well-known fact. Kept it a bit quiet.

Snake

A snake came - a gold one, not black
And drank at my trough out the back
He looked so like a prick
That I chucked a big stick
And he hurried back into his crack

Song of Amergin

I landed, with eight sons of Mil,
In Ireland, some locals to kill.
The Tuatha did us wrong
So I made up a song
About being a bird and a hill.

Christ, who's made a peregrination
Trampling all the green hills of this nation?
Never mind, let's take trouble
To raise from the rubble
Urban - mid-east style - regeneration.

some crazy old chap with a beard,
on my way to a wedding appeared
said he'd been on a boat,
shot a bird in the throat
and then everything went a bit weird

Oh now look, I've drowned in the sea
And you thought I was waving. Tee hee.
And you've now told the cops
"He was twelve yards out, tops"
It was actually seventy-three.
