Hi!
If you remember, I had 15 words and the ending of ‘-esque’ left over from yesterday’s fun with the Haikubes, and I vowed to write a poem with them today.
Here’s what came of that endeavour…
Words to incorporate:
Doctor Licks -esque Its He Prick Lurid You A Cheeks Next Flying To Your Any Bust
I sit in the waiting room
Watching my doctor
– In reception,
Protected by glass –
As he licks
The ice cream.
I arrived too early
And now it’s almost time…
The picturesque moment
Of ‘man enjoying a treat’
Loses its appeal.
“How dare he?!
The prick! Such a lurid display!
Here you are: early.
Having to be taunted by
A show of nonchalance:
His cheeks full of food,
As your fever
Has barely left yours!
You’d better be next!
This behaviour
Is flying in the face
Of what the media says…
Isn’t it?!
NHS staff rushed off their feet, eh?
Can’t be bothered
To stick to your
Appointment time, can he?
Any sympathy you had for doctors
Should be well dead now;
Bust that myth, haven’t we…?!”
“So” said the doctor,
“What seems to be the trouble?”
“Intrusive thoughts” I said,
Trying not to glare at
The ice cream on his tie.
Hands up who was expecting that from those words?! 😛
