I like to jump off bridges

Poetry 1 Minute

What do you enjoy doing most in your leisure time?

I thought we’d all just answered this.

Do you need the same again!

I’ll have to answer differently

It can’t just be the same.

So I’ll try to answer differently.

I hope you’ll like this more.

It maybe won’t be truthful

But you might enjoy it more.

I like to jump from bridges

My toenails painted pink

To go around with orange hair

And cause a mighty stink.

I carve my name on doorposts

Paddle in the sink

Ride a trike quite recklessly

Give passing cars a dink.

I go where I’m not wanted

And rudely interfere.

I ruffle people’s feathers

And then just disappear.

I aim to be a nuisance

Get pleasure from the mess

Do I like just causing trouble?

The answer’s clearly yes.

You asked the same old questions

Just in a different way

Provoked me into this response

My answer for today.
