21. Shh! (On Up-market Rambo)

An abnominal for Thomas-Mark Burnhope

Shh! Astronaut. UR no amateur,
So keep abreast, man: arrest

That super masked phantom-
Mobster upon moonset.

Make the robber end up
Shammed, bankrupt. Make

The mouse, the satan, abort,
Phone-in another breakout. Put out

That poor, bonkers butthead,
Barnstorm in a BEANO book.

Take armour, photon phaser
Then roam bunker, burnt bush,

Southern Bourne. Ambush, stat!
Pronto, praetor! Parkour-pterosaur!

Our earthborn kin, our heartburn,
UR parents’ horse an’ hansom;

Homespun hunk, pro brontosaur!
An honest-to-host hoot, to boot;

UR mum’s hush-hush astronomer. Bonne nuit,
Master the Maker’s map o’ Mars. – UR Pa an’ Mentor
