The Strange World of DIY and DIY Poetry about DIY . . . Why indeed

Yes the picture is not the right one

sorry about that 

I have been out doing DIY today. This is good and also bad, you see doing DIY is very constructive I managed to put a shelf unit up in a kitchen and a huge TV up in a bedroom and a Star Wars mask thing up next to the huge TV. This is good; however spending the day at someone else’s house doing DIY is also bad, as it means there is still a list of DIY jobs to do at my own house. But I have done a good deed that is very good . . . . but I still have loads of things to do at mine which is bad. And all my tools are in the car but it’s dark and wet so do I get them out in the dark and wet or train the cat to do it.

Right OK I have just returned from chatting on the Phone to my old Rock Star pal from Brinsley Schwarz who is coming across in a week or so to tune the piano. This will make it easier to write more poetry that makes sense. . . . . OK I lie my poetry will still make no sense what so ever but it will be more musical . . . . . OK that it not true either, but it is true that the piano will be more musical as long as I don’t try to play it. Folk have a habit of screaming and running away when I play the piano as I have a rather unorthodox approach to it based on an entire lack of knowledge about which are the right notes to hit within any given musical progression designed to be musical.

I was just wondering if it is possible to write a quick DIY song about DIY

Lets give it a go

I have been out today  

Doing DIY

With drills and saws

Screwdrivers and other tools

And a bit of Wet and dry

I have made many holes in walls

And put up an old wonky shelf

Plus a television and a mask

From Star Wars that was

Once worm by an alien elf . . .

And I used my trusty hammer

To hit the occasion thing

And although not entirely necessary

Much pleasure 

Hammers do bring

I even used my socket set

And its clever ratchet thing

To do up some hefty bolts

And a bit of paint and wood filler

Always adds a bit of bling

Until everything of course 

Falls off the wall

When my family tend to shout

During a rather noisy

Some what expressive 

Interesting 
phone 
call

Where I blame the cat
