They always told me guard my heart For that is where my lifeblood starts. I learnt that lesson the hard way round, Learnt that moral with a frown. So I made a promise grave, Not to be their open...

My sofa is no good for me Ultra paradoxically It seats four people, so stretch out Room for all, without a doubt It's leather, black and super cool But to take a seat you'd be a fool For if you sit...
Shiny teapot, short and stout Water in, tea comes out In a single, steady flow.
*warning, I'm a bit annoyed on this front. Sorry!* 'follow me' - you're needy, 'like my stuff' - I might, 'read this' - on my own work, 'look here' - I'm trying to write.
