Exiled to the Fairy Grotto
Misdemeanours
Tracked

Guy had no teeth but fangs
And well dressed
That's a fact

It just his attitude
We said
Glistening bye and bye

The yellow glow of stubble
Often grew upon his chin
Highlighting the fangs

But always clean as sin

At night
he was underground
At dawn
He was hell

Clubs were his delight
to cast his dancing spell

Eyes bloodshot at the dawn
We quietly called him
Hades
barbecuing the mushrooms
On him
cooking the grill on rare

And sent home all the ladies
Or his ego for dare

Leaving by the roof at times
And sometimes by the door
He never thought the clients
Just meat to the claw

But I cannot fault his service
satisfaction was his goal
But
things just kept falling through
And finally
He had to go

A rare stake
Took him
In a club

Pinioned by the taste
He asked if he could come back later
He considered it
A waste

Grover

It's a shame that the Battersea Park Funfair stopped.

It was fun while it lasted
