Office Friendships
Eve is madly in love with Hugh
And Hugh is keen on Jim.
Charles is in love with very few
And few are in love with him.
Myra sits typing notes of love
With romantic pianist’s fingers.
Dick turns his eyes to the heavens above
Where Fran’s divine perfume lingers.
Nicky is rolling eyes and tits
And flaunting her wiggly walk
Everybody is thrilled to bits
By Clive’s suggestive talk.
Sex suppressed will go berserk,
But it keeps us all alive.
It’s a wonderful change from wives and work.
And it ends at half past five.
— Gavin Ewart
HaHaHaHaHa…!!!
I love sending poems to people. If I think back, I’ve gotten SO MANY people to subscibe to The Wondering Minstrels! Of course, nachiketj said that he’d rather read it from me than subscribe to it himself! Apart from that , srusrid , trycatchdenz , mildchild , lalunadiosa …. have I bored you guys enough??!!!
Thanks to Santanu who got me hooked on to the Minstrels!!!

bang on target
Lux…have to agree with nachiketj – I really enjoy reading the selection you send….don’t think I’d actually subscribe to the site myself….loved this new poem too…kinda reminded me of how a prof explained the concept of Transitivity in my microeconomics class….she gave us an example of a non-transitive relation as follows…..Eve is madly in love with Hugh and Hugh is keen on Jim but that doesn’t mean Eve pines for Jim….I don’t think I shall ever forget this example (of course names and some details changed for confidentiality purposes!!!)

and an observation from real life – it all becomes infinitely more chaotic when sexual orientations of people involved are ambiguous. good lord. it is so funny. 🙂 🙂
