After being inspired by some of the outstanding examples of poetry being posted in the past few days I came up with this little bit of poesy for you all while sitting at work. 
When you first stumble upon the B&B
You may be o’erwhelmed by what you see
Gentlemen debating, discussing, and rating
Giving priceless advice for free
From whisky to razors, and blades to creams
You’ll slowly work out what everything means
And get in over your head in meaningless threads
And see SuperSpeeds at night your dreams
From DEs to straights this hobby is deep
Your online expenditures have made your wife weep
No matter the time, you find you’re online
Having lost the compulsion to sleep
‘I’ll be fine’, you say, ‘just one more thread’
As visions of Penhaligon’s dance in your head
As you wait for a reply the time ticks by
And you find 40 new posts you’ve not read!
Some might question why you choose to stay
On this humble shave forum all night and all day
It’s best to refrain from trying to explain
(They wouldn’t understand what you’d say)
So for those of you wondering, have I lost my mind?!
If I keep playing with razors will I really go blind?
Keep posting! replying! selling! (and buying)
For B&B is classiness defined.
