arrow_circle_up
After a long shift
I am pleased to see my home
MC on the screen
(and miss the point entirely)
Dropped in yonks ago...
Harrow and Wealdstone!
I say, and then leave.
When I am sober
I can count my syllables
before I submit.
Release those podumes!
[Standard mis-counting forfeit]
Now I'll play Oval
A shot in the dark
And a really sinister
Podume found at Bank.
Taking heed of the
Sinister Podume alert
Hiding at New Cross
Poisoned litter to
Scatter at Wimbledon should
Bag a few Wombles
What have the Wombles
Done to you? Moving to build
A refuge at Bank
All those Christmas songs!
You should mind your own beeswax
Meanwhile, Leicester Square
But they are so cute
Didn't know they made beeswax :)
Anyway, Uxbridge
Only heard one song.
What are the other ones then?
*Hops off at Temple*
The Womble songbook
Is easily found.Google!
Fleeing to Mile End
The commentator
speaking in hushed tones tells us
the endgame is near.
Speaking in hushed tones
I tell the players that it's
A game of two halves.
I'll have to *f*a*r*k*l*e*
While I shoot myself in the
HTML head.
Simons continues
To comment without playing
I move back to Bank
Making a late tilt
At undeserved glory
I essay Bond Street!
(that's "un-de-ser-ved", BTW)
Reasserting my
Authority (podumes-wise)
One more at Poplar.
Perhaps I should frume
But even now I think that's
unduly forward.
once again I see that
the haiku game is living
I say: "right foot Bank"
and spontaneously forget how to count...
Counting carefully
Moving off to Mill Hill East
Scheming a dark scheme
Is everyone lulled?
I don't really need to know,
I'm just curious.
Exploding onto
The scene and pushing onward
To Fulham Broadway
Looking around I
see that the game has moved
to Mill Hill, the Hale
The time is now right
For me to enter the game;
Mornington Crescent.
I call thee offside!
However, I'm not, and:
Mornington Crescent!!
*shouts, screams, generally goes wild for Tuj*
I did enjoy that
But all good things must come to
