Inventor

Inventor

I was thinking of things I could invent
Something for people to use
I came up with a thing called shatnav
Helping drivers to find nearest loos

I developed a robot doll called lazy
But it never worked
Just like my all wool kagoul
And my see through polythene shirt

My shed is my place of deep thought
It’s where I reinvent many wheels
I put photographs of food on dinner plates
Tried to sell them as really fast meals

I created a loud hailer that was silent
So no one could hear a thing
I catered for imaginary weddings
Where couples wore invisible rings

I invented the worlds greenest car
Designed to look just like a bike
I particularly like my self walking boots
So no one has to take a hike

I made the world’s tiniest thief
Small enough to get inside human ears
There’s so much time to be saved
Stealing other peoples great ideas

But above all I must give a mention
To my thought train in its station
Creating requires some insanity
And uncontrollable imagination
