Gyles' poem this week was 'Hands off our horns' by 'Mark Graham '



I know my horn is impressive

But it’s not a magic cure

For poor performance in the sack

Of that I’m really sure



I recommend viagra

If suffering from these ails

You’re stupid if you buy my horn 

Just bite your bloody nails



A Somethin’ Else & Sony Music Entertainment production.
