Some outside signs make you wonder <br />whose brain was in reverse <br />when they thought them up. <br />I walked along a promenade there was a sign, <br />which read No Smoking Zone. <br />A little further down <br />was a similar sign facing the other way. <br />Therefore, for twenty yards <br />you could not smoke between the signs. <br />You could smoke an inch before the sign, <br />but an inch further on <br />you would incur a hefty fine. <br />However, there was no sign <br />to tell the wind not to blow the smoke <br />into the direction of the smoke free zone. <br />Any person with a bit of common <br />could see no common there. <br /> <br />5 April 2008<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/no-common-there-fun-poem-72/
