a poem by TBinns
My Beatles mug
Abbey Road
John, Paul, George and Ringo
Why did you cross the road?
To bring me a warm beverage
Where are you?
Did she come in through the bathroom window
and steal you?
Oh Darling
Someone has found you
In the sink of the office kitchen
Broken in two
Like my heart.
Broken, smashed
By Maxwell’s silver hammer
Never again to
Come Together.
He threw you away
And now
I’m going to carry that weight
I’ll carry that weight a long time.



awwww … so sweet … im sure ringo will have somthing to add … sorry about your mug.

Thank you. I am particularly sad because I got it in San Francisco. The city, not the store.

Now listen here, you old flattop, i dont want to leave thecorrectness now (many late nights all alone with my Net-tube. oohh oh oh oh oh) and I’ll never do you no harm, but…
hit it….
Do I have to be holding your tea
in your souvenir Abbey Road Mug with me.
You heat it up, pour it in your cup
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, let it be.
I don’t recall you asking me
if you could stain my face with tea
You heat it up, pour it in your cup
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, let it be.
What does it say, when you display
John, Paul George & me Ringo, anyway?
All of our heads, some of us dead
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, let it be.
Well Correctness…
YOUR MUG SAYS THAT YOU HAVE GREAT TASTE
A NICKELBACK MUG WOULD BE A DISGRACE
Please heat it up, pour it in your cup
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, with me
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, with me
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, with me.
doopy doopy doopy doo doooo
peace & love,
Ringo
