#48 – Pete’s Tweets

November 12, 2009 by Peter Lowry

Don’t expect me to Twitter

Because it doesn’t matter.

My thoughts of every day,

Are not that long, anyway.

___

My gay friends are atwitter

The right-wing are so bitter

George is going to city hall

He will paint it pink next fall.

___

Jack reported in his twitter

That guy Harper’s a quitter

Hasn’t said anything polite

Since Ignatieff lost his fight.

___

Heard from a Babel twitter

Babel MP’s a counterfeiter

Writes a really big cheque

And he don’t give a heck.

___

Sure wish I invented Twitter

And wouldn’t be a quitter,

I would live as a zillionaire,

Now wouldn’t that be fair?

___

I never really liked a Twitter

No point to it to being bitter

Average reader’s attention,

Ain’t really worth a mention.

___

Can’t earn money on Twitter

I’d do better as a steamfitter

But I’m taking up all this time,

Proving I know how to rhyme.

With apologies for the lack of perfect metre, other complaints can be directed to [email protected]
