Rejected Valentine’s Day poems

Our writing team are incurably romantic and they worked hard on their Valentine's Day cards to their nearest and dearest. Unfortunately, some of the romantic verses didn't make the cut - and here they are:

Roses are red

Violets are blue

I've got a knife

Get in the van

beau-jolly 

Roses are red

Violets are red

My hands are red

Will you be my alibi?

Roses are lovely

Violets are nice

You are quite stunning

And should fetch a good price

If music be the food of love

You are my 4'33"

I slept with your best friend

That was a mistake

Can you put in a good word

With your sister Kate?

I've developed a rash

And it hurts when I pee

Thank you my love

For my new STD

Roses are red

Poems are fun

Marks out of ten?

I’d give you one

Midfield Diamond  

Roses are black

Violets are black

Everything is black

Fetch me the Prozac

modelmaker  

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?

Hot and sultry

Perhaps a little damp

And covered in jam and wasps

sirlupus  

Roses are 8

Violets are 9

I'll give you a good rating

If you'll be mine

NOT Titus  

Roses are red

Violets are Blue

God made me handsome

What happened to you?

Roses are red

But don't smell that well

And that is becos

I got them at Shell

Threat to U.S. national security is National Security Threat, says U.S.

A threat to U.S. national security is a National Security Threat, says a representative of the House of Representatives in the U.S.

A top Republican today warned of a 'serious' national security threat, that seriously threatens the security of the nation .

A memo sent to members of the House of Representatives on Tuesday night provided few additional details, noting only that the 'urgent matter', which matters, and is urgent, is 'in regard to a destabilising foreign military capability', which is the military capability of a foreign destabiliser. Also that the urgent matter matters urgently.

The Senate Intelligence Chairman, a man who sits in the chair of Intelligence for the Senate, said in a statement that the committee 'is discussing an appropriate response with the administration', and that they will 'administer a response, as appropriate, after discussion in the committee.'

Further announcements are expected at a date to be announced.
