Verity Stokes' Knitting - Tim Woodhouse ~ 2009

Verity Stokes, oh she knew many blokes, engaging their fancies quite freely.
Verity Stokes, I'm the butt of your jokes; in my foolish obsessions you mock me.

Thinking of you in your purple and blue as you pull the wool over my eyes.
Perfectly knitted in the clothes that you've knitted you're bringing about my demise.

Though I ought to know better please knit me a sweater ensnaring my heart in a thread.
And if I insist might I be on your list of young men to whom you have said
"Yes I'll knit you a sweater for worse or for better,
for richer, for poorer in yellow or red."

Verity Stokes how you're knitting invokes such feelings of warmth and affection;
Yet feelings inside it are left unrequited, I'm blighted by infatuation.
