TQR 14,398 Posted September 6, 2022 This is a poem which is by no means crap, but from the genius that is Brian Bilston: A bollard. A thimble. A beef gravy granule. A bilge pump. A plectrum. A Pokémon annual. A doorknob. A chaffinch. A half-eaten carrot. A footbath. A clothes peg. A wine stain. John Parrot. A ceramic spoon holder. A fruit Polo mint. A discarded tissue. A puddle. Some lint. A used toner cartridge. Some musical socks. A build up of silt. A stuffed startled fox. A plimsoll. A wingnut. A set of false teeth. A novelty wall clock with the face of Prue Leith. A beetle. A drumlin. A short piece of string. A packet of Wotsits. A plant pot. Most things. That was a poem entitled An Incomplete List of Things More Capable of Running the Country than the new Prime Minister. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TQR 14,398 Posted May 16, 2023 Another bit of Brian Bilston brilliance: ”Sometimes the power of a homophone will come out of nowhere and just hit you - like being struck by a ten-tonne truck,” articulated Laurie. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
