Sounds like something I have to look forward to, or maybe I'm already there and don't realise it. A very entertaining piece that gave me a smile. Nice one.

A very well-written Tyburn about the fumbling fool who stumbles about while mumbling and grumbling about about this unfair life that makes us drool.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This form of poetry just lends itself to outrageous, but totally acceptable, silliness. you have used it very skillfully to that end and I salute you.

Ha, ha! A great Tyburn poem that meets all the requirements of the form. I particularly like your use of drool here; it's indicative of a mumbling, grumbling person (although I'm not sure it applies to someone who stumbles with their words).

Best of luck with this when the voting booth opens {smiles}.

I fear the very same thing as we in part lose our sanity with age and turn into our Mothers and Fathers! He he he, this is a fun write though and I enjoyed the sentiments, love Dolly x

    Oh yes, we are all on the slippery slope to parody our parents.

    I'm so pleased you enjoyed this silly poem. It is only the second one i have ever written, not being familiar with the form.
    I enjoy humour myself, and often write funny little stories that are full of witty puns.
