WhatWhyHow???

This year, I set myself the foolish task of trying to write something every day, and what you see here is the result. None of this is finished, polished, or in any way good. It's usually a few lines at the end of the day when I'm tired, my head's broken, and this nonsense spills out of it onto the page. Feel free to comment away, and if you think anything has any potential then let me know and I might have a go at working on it further.

But hang on, where's the first month? You've ripped us off! I hear you say... Well, yes. I have been writing since the beginning of January, but it's taken me a while to get the blog up, so everything here is a month old.

The Perfect Pirates

There are some pirates on the China seas
That do not have pegs beneath their knees
Instead, they take the greatest care
With how they look and what they wear.

These prissy pirates are often seen
Pirouetting from beam to beam,
Leaping from the lanyard with the grace of a cat
And warming up thoroughly before they attack.

The captain is a salty dog by the name of Jolly Roger
He's the kind of man your mum wouldn't mind taking as a lodger
Polite to a fault and with posture precise, he patrols the whole of the ocean
Raiding ships' holds for mountains of gold and bottles of lavender lotion.
