The Queen Mums Teeth

I miss her smile full of decayed molars, and the way she talked of values to peasants, and I loved her dressed in caledonian tweed, Talking to 'Harry' smoking weed, As she repeatedly shot game and pheasants. She liked a tipple of brandy after brunch, It relieved the pain of her hunch, I admired her courage after her 5th hip operation, And the way she used her icy persuasion. She called Charlie big ears but with affection, He would murmur 'oh naughty nanny bunny', I wonder if she ever slapped them, Yes I bet she did. When she died I raised a glass of Martell brandy, And said Here's to you Ma'm I'm sure you'll be dandy, Up there with God kicking him off his throne, Continuing the greatness of a once great empire, Smiling that black English winning smile, And all those in heaven will search for the fire. (sorry if this sucks it was written while Return of the jedi was on pause, the ewoks are kicking ass, gotta go)

I think this is very good, outside of the fact that you fan lunatics...i do believe deep down. that ewoks are extremely eye catching creatures to say the least.

See her homepage. I don't get it either, some administrative charge we common folks don't get the scoop on.

I clicked the Poemwanker link and got a wanker list. Turns out you have quite a following. How flattering it must be for you.

You noticed, I am sure, that all those Wanked versions of me are not really me. They are immitations of the one-and-only Dovina. Fame has its sacrifices. It's not that different from the transvestite issue we were discussing.

Yes. Transvestites are wankers too.
