Replying to a comment on:

The kissing chair incident (Free verse) by Stephen Robins

The setting for this my tale, Which I'd rather set in braille, Is a town famous for its salt, (And occasional common asault). I was there to purchase a picture, Not receive a woman's stricture, After ten pints of rubbish port, I sat on a chair for brief support. This chair was made of rafia and dust, When sat upon it would combust, Having fallen to pieces twice before, But never to a gentleman's guffaw. So i sat by broad and handsome behind, Coated in a gentleman's rind, And 'lo the chair did fail, And backwards this fat chap did flail! The chair was situated in a hotel, Patronised by those in suits of shell, It appeared this chair of antique condition, Which had suffered a back fat demolition, Was a local feature of repute, By those in 'forementioned suit, I felt the shame of my class, As I picked the splinters out of my arse, To be held before a peroxide visison Who rightly poured forth her derision. Of a bunch of chinless wonders, Who beset her town with blunders, Such as the wrecking of priceless chairs, And the perming of frizzled hairs. I left the town, or was I chased? Either way I made great haste, And now each time I say a prayer, When I sit next to a chav in a chair.

In future I advise you to be prepared for such eventualities: always carry a portable truncheon so as to beat such presumptuous yobs across the pate for troubling you. It is important to lay down the law as soon as possible, or they will start taking all sorts of liberties like walking in public places or heckling you for a chip at 3am.
