Why?"

by Sue - copyright2007.

Why were bubble packs invented?

Why have polos got a hole?

Does life have a deeper meaning?

Do tell - in up to fifty words

(answers on a postcard please.)

In India, call centre agents

learn of cricket and raisin scones

(press button 3 to stay on the line.)

Why is Coke a different flavour?

Is Mr Bean our modern saviour?

Trolley rage, life rage, road rage,

spaghetti junction,

tarmac, pasta & landfill sites

(the seagulls' joy.)

Who first designed the 4by4?

and what are soffits really for?

Why is candy floss so pink?

Why have creme eggs shrunk in size?

Our memories have random access

so check the internet instead

(billions of pages to be read.)

Why are apples a bright waxy green?

Why don't we say what we mean?

Be careful now, words are weapons

(To Mrs Namby and Mr Pamby,

'may' & 'might' & 'could' are mighty!)

The website's down but never mind

believing's seeing so no-one's blind.

Or are we?
