Jack in a box
#1
The sherry glass squeaked
inside the tea towel
as Jack finished off
the last of his supper dishes.

He switched off the kitchen light,
settled down for the nightly news.
His fingers waggled for attention,
roughly licked by a friendly tongue.

Eyes closed behind strong readers
as the completed crossword
slid over his belly onto the floor.
Unaware of the pair arguing outside.

You do it.
Get stuffed it was your idea.
Do it you wimp.
No, it was your idea you do it.
Ha, I always knew you had no balls,
wait till I tell the rest of the lads.
Ok! Give it here then,
but you’re doing the next one.


The boy scurried to Jack’s door
and rattled the brass knocker,
lit the Banger, shouted wanker
and dropped it through the letterbox.
On top of the mail
Jack was too frail to pick up.

The TV was louder than a Western
and Jack could sleep through gun shots,
never heard the knock or the call,
didn't smell the smoke as it blinded the hall.

If your undies fer you've been smoking through em, don't peg em out
