Buttocks

Better disinfect those chairs, Elsie.

Two guys at the chess board
Been up all night long
Eyes that look like gimlets
Breath that don’t half pong.

Elsie in the kitchen
Makes a pot of tea
Takes it to the players
With a whispered plea:

‘Can’t you give up fellas?
Stop and have a drink.
People in my hotel
Don’t know what to think.’

Wonders if they heard her.
What’s their attitude?
Two blokes at the chess board
Playing in the nude.

And here is Harper Thorpe’s hilarious follow-up:
