Here lies a man who read old books
and fapped two times a day,
a grim loner with pasty looks
who happened to be gay.

Thank you Billy (I trust that is a compliment?) This is my first new poem published here for well over a week I think, the rest having been plundered from my back catalogue. It was sort of inspired by the child-like short poems of Stevie Smith.
