NONSENSE RHYME?

There was a youngman who
went to see to sea the Queen
two do a deed tit tat tit tat
said the mat two the dam cat
who went tic tac toe
tow said Mr Mow.
Who couldn't say no
and then he had to go, go, go.
Like Mister Joe.

MARILYN MONROE

Marilyn Monroe the baby babie of
yester year lipstick pink upon her lips.
Moonlite crescents excelling raydent
glow,While flowing twiglet locks
ole sky powdery blue eyes, shining
at you ! Boo ,Boo Do;
With a heart so tender with humanity
too Boo Boo Do.
Norma jean she was the model
queen of the screen she died sweet
innocent just like fragrant orange
Blossom floating in the pool. Boo Boo Do.

NARBORO ROAD

M-One at turn 'Leicester' Twenty-one
You fly along like a bat shooting out of Hades'
Leicestershire rolling countryside
Metalic Cathedral Spires
wire mesh diamonds
Fencing among neatly cut hedges
Red Green traffic lights shout it's warning:
Enter the glory of Narborough Road
Braunstone Working Men's Club flashing by:- and bye

Rush by and bye;

Mock-Tudor houses leading on to council estates
Just like the garbage that hangs about
Rubbish, oil drums and lager tins
broken prams and containers for trash;
Ladybirds sauna lighting pink saying: 'Come on in'
Huntsman Pub with ruffian crew within
Westleigh Road corner - Eskimos linger, Iceland near
Michael-John Carpets'Flag flutter on Eastleigh Road

So on:- 'No-Go' then down we go

To the glowing Oasis, where the Asians there
wear barong tagalong - an external shirt
Red, Orange gallons flow wherein long coats
drank beers from which grow fools
idiotic smoky youths, little loss money goes
Then Equity, Paten, Norman, Gaul and alike
There scholars of nations a'plenty abode

Off Ivy Street along, along we go

Proprietor - the best Chinese food restaurant
Royal Chef glass menagerie within
Stewart, Noel, Video Box customers happy refrain
Monomorphic purport, levity of kind-heartiness
Upperton Road Robert's Baptists' Church Hall
Down, down past Barclay, Harrow

And on we go

We come across Eightytwo bar -
Guileful disc-jockey flicks her dragonfly stylus
prancing, saying giggly 'I love you' - homburg peacock chap over road
Westcotes drive where Shree Jalaran Prarthana Mandal
-Temple we declare - as we stare

Forward and onward, wandering by

Honyz massage parlour, glitzy dark jet-glass window
Flashing neon light offering valuptuous masseuse
'Bend over sweetheart' for sadistic massochism
long awaited domination

creeping on, edging by

Blue Piccasso sign gives wide-ranging suggestions of sexual sensations
Black whips, chains, played out scenes and porno magazines
Taste of Amsterdam conventions

Onward sauntering, sauntering onward

Hogans Bar with wooden panneling and floors
Entrapped tangerine pillars, within bespectacled walls
Tele monitors showing gladiators fighting a ball
perched on colonial chairs, your pleasure pleased by leering, smiling gleeful girls

Dashing, dashing, rushing, rushing

Oldy-world Tin Drum
Browsing Lovejoy, Dickens, Thackeray
looking, tinkling Stephenson, Bronte
its authors lined on ledges
become soldiers on parade

Forward, faster, quickening, beckoning

Leicester City Centre
