The Crooner
Engelbert, don’t leave your suitcase
here you are not staying and stop
humming that song about “Her head
upon my pillow” It makes me think
of Mary Stewart’s hers they laid upon
a black silk cushion, her executioners
cried, men can be so sentimental about
women they have abused.
Martha Hari, the bewildered, working class
tart, they called her a spy and shot her,
later in the officer’s mess they drank to
her memory and made her into a legend.
Engelbert take your suitcase and leave I
won’t let your sentimental crooning swish
through my head, it’s four in the morning
for heaven’s sake!

You always write on such interesting topics ... and although it seems more like a story I enjoy reading your poetry - it makes you think outside the square. |

Nice one Jan!
Dreamweaver said it very well. You do make us 'think outside the square'.
I really enjoyed it and I'd chuck him out, too :) |
