Express yourself
Reject yourself
No self-respect
Try to forget
Your case of rejection
No intentions
No directions
Lie to your soul
You’ve got no goal

Zoomedia – 3rd October 1986
An army of animals
Zoomedia men shouting
Get a piece of monkey action
Cagey editor’s never doubting
Heard of the herds
Of desperate words
Zoomedia man
In the Zoomedia plan
12th Oct 2024 – Shared with Ragtag Daily Prompt – media. I almost entered this one for yesterday’s word – zoo. An odd coincidence that these two words came up one after the other.
Smooth Guys – 2nd October 1986
Smooth guys
Close shave
Aftershave
Being brave
Smooth guys
Stay wise
Get the girls
Are so polite
They sleep
Easy at night
Case Closed – 30th September 1986
Open door
Question posed
Shut door
Case closed
Give Me – 29th September 1986
Give me your love
Give me your face
Give me your notebook
Give me your space
Give me your heart
Give me your whole
Give me your sleaze
Give me your soul
Black And White – 28th September 1986
Brown paper wraps your present
It’s plain to see
It’s all right
It’s in black and white
But what can it be?
Pressure – 27th September 1986
Pressure pipes about to explode
They’ve taken all they can hold
Pent-up energy, ready to burst
It could only be for the worst
You let it build up for too long
You thought there was nothing wrong
Ignore the problem and it’ll go away
But you’ll only end up having to pay
Moth – 26th September 1986
Clothes in your cupboard
Full of moth holes
Get out your mothballs
Keep in control
Moth on your cloth
Gotta get it off
Clothes all holey
Moth ate them slowly
Robot – 24th September 1986
Are you plugged in
To the latest thing?
Robotic automation
Is here to save the nation
Sitting in their yen
Japanese businessmen
Getting rich quick
By turning the odd trick
What do they care about the unemployed?
‘Here, have a robot – don’t get annoyed’
Rain – 23rd September 1986
You know what they say
Rain, rain go away
Come back another day
But I want it to stay
I wanna get cold and wet
Cos it makes me forget
The heat and the sun
Which spoils my fun
