Trevor Butler Poems

Respectable men, you will no doubt recall,
Have got a bad habit of knowing it all.
They never squat down on the floor on their haunches,
But slump in armchairs behind burgeoning paunches.
...

They say, blue and green should never be seen,
And neither should purple and puce.
Orange and grey are just perfect for play,
But for best there's no earthly excuse.
...

Down in the fathoms of the deep,
Where unknown life forms lurk,
Cold crustaceans quietly creep
About their business in the murk.
...

The Best Poem Of Trevor Butler

He-Men

Respectable men, you will no doubt recall,
Have got a bad habit of knowing it all.
They never squat down on the floor on their haunches,
But slump in armchairs behind burgeoning paunches.

They suck cigarettes through a thick, yellow haze,
Sleep badly at night and feel dead through their days.
They constantly harp about high income-tax,
What neighbours are thinking and pains in their backs.

He-men, however, are different to this,
They live out their lives in absolute bliss.
They gamble their wages and laugh when they lose,
They never wear vests or dropp into a snooze.

They battle through hurricanes, earthquakes and fire,
With boxes of chocolates for girls they admire.
They rarely stay long at one proper address,
Or suffer from piles, apoplexy or stress.
