a study toward sonnet #181 by FisherKingKQJ
in D flat
An easygoing dwarf he fell well short
An oddball he cussed short odd Hoipolloi
A prophet his halitosis meant naught
A gourmet he with five courses could toy
A salesman he swore personable ploy
A loony he gamed clashing zodiac signs
A textmessage stalker he'd just annoy
A pick nose smoker he was all whines
A Mandarin he read between the lines
A winetaster he was coached by his mum
A mute he spelled out his SMS pines
A comb over he was soused in bay rum
My first time dates are still salutary
I might stay untouched and solitary?
[Major overhaul of nine lines, though content
essentially unchanged. 15/9/05]
{3D chorus in E flat:}
I might stay untouched and solitary?
I might stay untouched and hermit?
I might stay untouched and loner?
