Carry On Tuesday #19

Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

Here's mine:

REGULAR GUY

He walks like a woman

when he waddles across the road

and he points and he pirouettes

and he tries to forget

that he’s still in the closet

and he’s not coming out yet

don’t walk behind him if you

really want to be his friend

but he pouts and powders his nose

and shares his sister’s clothes

and he stops the traffic when

he walks up the frog ‘n’ toad

he’s up and he’s up and he’s high

like the moon in the sky

and he thinks that no one knows

that he’s no regular guy.

But I’ve been told that he talks

like a woman from the street

he walks like a woman

when he waddles across the road

and he points and he pirouettes

and he tries to forget

that he’s still in the closet

and he’s not coming out yet

don’t walk behind him if you

really want to be his friend

but he pouts and powders his nose

and shares his sister’s clothes

and he stops the traffic when

he walks up the frog ‘n’ toad.

Tuesday Moody!

TELEPATHICALLY
He sends two men up in a basket that is attached to a balloon. From their Vantage point, high up in the sky, they can report back to him. 'A steel hulled warship is on their tail,' they tell him telepathically.

Glare, Luster, and Threat.

Here's mine:

Slug the rear rattle, is an anagram of this weeks three little words.

TAKING THE AITCH
With a regal glare he stared at a bottle of lager, and he said. "I know not what luster means, but it is an anagram of Ulster. Also, you can give yourself a treat, by taking the aitch out of threat".

Cheers for Tuesday!

SEPTEMBER BLUES
When will she come back, will she, won't she come back home, winter's nearly here. With only winter to look forward to now, she starts to feel depressed. As the summer green leaves start to fall, she fears the autumn of her life.

Will she come
Will she won't she come
SEPTEMBER
Come she won't she will
Come she will.

Three Word Wednesday CLII

Written for 3WW
The words this week are:
Fracture, Noise, and Vanish.

Here's mine:

WISHFUL THINKING
Oh, if only you could make a fracture vanish, by making a noise. Why, you'd just break a leg, pour out the coco pops, and say, 'that's that then'. In real life, you get the fracture, make the noise and it doesn't vanish.

Break a leg
Snap, crackle + pop
Where's she gone?
FRACTURE NOISE VANISH
Where's she gone?
Snap, crackle + pop
Break a leg.
