Kittens, jokes, trivia, celebrities and scandal,                

That’s all you need!

No politics, religion or deep issues                

To which you could hold a candle                                

The light of truth would knock you out your sandals!  

No need to get serious or make a fuss                

That would throw your post                               

  Under the proverbial bus!  

Nobody really wants to engage, to think.            

     That might reveal their lives on the blink.                      

           Send them to drink                                  

               Or at least a shrink!  

There’s an art to being popular:              

   Be light and chatty,                         

        Never catty.  

So it’s fluffy kittens, flowers and love,                

A spot of nostalgia                                

Fist hidden in a velvet glove.  

No more truth, no more cajoling!             

    From now on I won’t mention the controlling,                         

        The lies and cons and dodgy polling.  

The Tories all mean well,              

   They really care.                              

   I’m ignoring all the lies,                    

                             Getting them out my hair.  

From now on it’s what I ate for breakfast,         

        Sentimental twaddle and fluffy kittens.                 

                It’ll pay dividends.   Just watch my blog soar!              

   Popularity is what it’s all for!
