The Morning Circus
John woke up one morning immensely aroused so
he turned over to his wife's side of the bed. His wife,
Heather, had already awakened though, and she
was downstairs preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
Afraid that he might spoil things by getting up,
John called his little boy into the room and asked
him to' Bring this note to your beautiful Mummy.'
The note read:
The Tent Pole Is Up,
The Canvas Is Spread,
The Hell With Breakfast,
Come Back To Bed.
Heather, grinning, answered the note and then asked
her son to ‘Bring this to your silly Daddy.'
The note read:
Take The Tent Pole Down,
Put The Canvas Away,
The Monkey Had A Hemorrhage,
No Circus Today.
John read the note and quickly scribbled a reply.
Then, he asked his son to take it back to ‘The lady
in the kitchen'.
The note read:
The Tent Pole's Still Up,
And The Canvas Still Spread,
So Drop What You're Doing,
And Come Give Me Some Head.
Laughing, Heather answered the note and then asked
her son to ‘Take this to the poor man upstairs.'
The note read:
I'm Sure That Your Pole's
The Best In The Land.
But I'm Busy Right Now,
So Do It By Hand!
