And here was me thinking you were losing your tache. 😊

Honestly, just brilliant! “Pedent”!

(The AI that is predictive text nearly wouldn’t let me type that! )

I hate predictive Texans.

Used to work somewhere where we published something that talked about "open pubic spaces"

For ‘pheasant’ read ‘peasant’ throughout 🤣

Spatula is such an underused insult.

Sorry, just seen you spotted it.

Can you imagine John Tillotson preaching this poem as a sermon?😂🤣

Bravo, Mr Bliston.

Spatula?

brianbilston.bsky.social•77 days ago

Yep.

"for AI the mistakes': I can't even introduce my poems without messing up. Either that or I'm a poetry bot. :-(

skyebalou.bsky.social•78 days ago

Actually reminded me of Those the brokes.

skyebalou.bsky.social•78 days ago

Tis all part of the beauty 😎

lockfarm.bsky.social•78 days ago

You could have styled that one out...

brianbilston.bsky.social•78 days ago

Too late now.

theaileenl.bsky.social•78 days ago

I thought you were talking about me for a moment.

brianbilston.bsky.social•78 days ago

I'm always talking about you.

janjonesauthor.bsky.social•78 days ago

And there was I thinking it was a clever allusion.

g-b-kershaw.bsky.social•78 days ago

You were bloody convincing when I saw you on stage...

ottocr.at•78 days ago

I thought that was a deliberate clever dig at Chat GPT

littleoldladywho1.bsky.social•78 days ago

So did I. 😂Never apologise for mistakes that work. And for things that were deliberate but didn't work, my friend/harmonica player used to say "Just look at the audience with an uncomprehending What? You didn't like that?". Then with an empathetic look as if the joke was above their understanding

brianbilston.bsky.social•78 days ago

From this point on, I'm going to pretend it was.
