Excuse Me!

The Bar to a Man stood silent

Not knowing where what they had heard had come from

But it was unusual to hear

the Oxbridge educated history grad

coming out with a tirade of x-rated language

Committee members murmured around backroom tables

as the Barmaid and her manager tried their best

Perhaps Mum and Dad

should have got a refund from the ladies college

they spent a kings ransom sending their little princess to

or perhaps a simple lesson should have been learned

Drinking yards of cider isn’t advisable

in a student drinking game

against others with hardened constitutions

The Bard of the local hostelry ? Finds herself Barred
