Ophelia and Mark.















A winner, a night 
a need to rejoice
In through the door, 
enticed by her voice.

He, innocent asked;
‘Can I kiss you Ophelia?’
She took off her robe.
“Your money, your choice!”
.....................
To lovers or art; 'I apologise'. 
To old comedians; 'You said it first!' 
To those who are offended by naughty rhymes; 'Stiff!'

    A cheeky spin on the traditional innocent Ophelia and focusing on her mad whore phase! Very creative!

    ‘Can I kiss you Ophelia?’

    'And then get to feel ya?' I suppose would be the next question? Hehehe!

      Is not that a tautism? Anyone reading this, please supply correct spelling. We are talking about saying the same thing twice, as in 'salty saline' for example.

    I need a bit of naughty - life is very serious and hectic at the moment. Good - but still hectic.

    Well, if you can offend open-minded poets, they might not be as talented as they proclaim!

      The Mark pays, so that is where the proceeds come from. I wasn't there... promise!

    This could have come from the mouth of those old music hall comedians who enjoyed running close to the edge. As you said, they said it first -but you did it better!
