My Biggest Fan (When You Say Nothing At All)

entry picture

 

  

It’s amazing how you come sniff at my blog

In the way that they say like a turd draws a dog

Why you choose to visit again and again

Try as I might I can never explain

 

     The bile on my page lets me know that you read me

     The tone of your words often crass, always seedy

     The mark of a man who is little but wants to be tall

     But you’d say it best if you said nothing at all.

 

My Granny said this as I well recall

“If you can’t say it’s nice then say nothing at all”

So take your impoliteness and unpleasant vitriol

Then look to where the sun don’t shine and …

…keep it to yourself.

 

The bile on my page lets me know that you read me

 

You tell me everything that I write is shite

But spend hours on my blog posting all night

I’ll try to explain it as best as I can

I reckon that it’s got to be…

                              …you’re My Biggest Fan.

 

     The bile on my page lets me know that you read me

Nice one, JC.

To paraphrase an old song title..."The wrong is ended but the malady lingers on!"

John,
A robust and witty (and a musical) piece of
vigorous self-defence (mess with me at your peril!)

As a musical ignoramus (I listen and like the song, then forget the singer and the name of it immediately ) I note the way you use the songs.

listening to some of the `unchained` types of song (I can never think of their names) I wonder if the `run` of them would suit the
`freer` un-rhymed poetry?

Some them sound impressive when I listen.

You shouldn't be a singer to express your feelings.
Your strong voice is in your poetry.

Thankyou, Larisa. You will realise, of course, that I am definitely NOT a singer!

Nice words, nice song. It reminds me Russian fork songs.It was pleasant to listen to it.“If you can’t say it’s nice then say nothing at all”. It is nice, by all means. Best wishes, Larisa
