Recommended Posts

Marjorie bristled

as the kettle wolf whistled

as it did every day

in an insolent way.

It is sexist she mused

I am being abused

I’m just making tea,

don’t objectify me.

My mornings you spoil

as you come to the boil

with your sickening scheme

to spurt me with steam.

 

Those outdated ways

are offensive these days –

pointing me out

with your prominent spout.

I call it assault

Don’t say it’s my fault

I won’t be blamed

if your passion’s inflamed.

And if you don’t cease

I shall call the police.

 

She emptied it then

she filled it again

and in this odd mood

drank her tea in the nude.
