Voodoo Tetrametrical

The wife lent me Stephen Fry’s The Ode Less Travelled. And now just look...



APOLLOGIA

Space cadets and woo-woo chicks
Clutter up my social media:
Prating, preaching, beating gongs,
Posting tuneless Sixties songs,
Cursing Wikipedia;
Vegan cures for drooping dicks
Flaccify my Facebook page:
Gastroextrudescent yoga,
Tantra, tattva, Kundalini,
Herbal draughts with adu seeni,
Lifestyle gurus wrapped in togas,
Logic and good taste outrage.

I palm my face, yet still do know compassion;
All minds deny mortality in their fashion.
