Funny Things Poem by Mark Curtis

I write about things, i find funny,
an overdraft and still no money,

On old man on his mobile phone,
a sticky face from ice cream cone,

When kids repeat what they overheard,
parents will shriek and say ‘absurd’.

Middle aged men who think they’re cool,
no word is said but all think ‘fool’.

Folk who still wear green shell suits,
and dye their hair, still see their roots.

This silly world, where we reside,
exposes fun we can not hide.
