PINK PANTER


A hipster whose name was Leon
Was cleaning his pants of neon:
To ensure they’d maintain
The brightest colour stain,
He washed them with hot pink crayons

Friday 29 June 2012

PINGER


A guy with hair like MacGyver
Was snorting some E through a fiver
He was celebrating
His championship win
In the ping-pong grand final decider

LEMON DROP


This hipster’s light-lemon bum bag
Was so full it started to sag
Down to the exposed knees
Over which Gim had squeezed
Lycra bike shorts covered in zigzags

WATER COOLER


A hipster on summer vacation
Was “camping” close to a gas station.
He walked to a brook,
Didn’t step in, just looked,
For fear of “mainstream” damnation

THE ROYAL TENANT BUMMER


This hipster lass got quite upset
When her Wes Anderson films boxed-set
Was discovered all bruised
For her housemate had used
It as an ashtray for cigarettes

TAT EEEEW


A hipster lass went out and got
A tattoo in an abandoned lot
Now on her left ribs' side
Do dreamcatchers reside
But Hep-B is also what they've caught

FERRY TALE


A hipster was looking quite merry
As he posed on the Manly ferry
For this glasses-clad lad
Was convinced that he had
Pulled off the look of Richardson, Terry

INTERNET EXPLORER


A hipster lass went with her crew
To a new boutique brewery in Kew
But before heading out
To drink organic stout,
She checked that they had Wi-Fi too

ALL BEARDS AREN'T CREATED EQUAL


Out with his hipster boys, drinkin’,
A lad said “I bet that Abe Lincoln
Would be so jealous
Of the long beards on us,
Thoughts of envy he'd surely be thinkin’ ”

TOAST MASTER


A hipster lass had an idea
After many sips of ginger beer:
She’d recycle typewriters
Into bread alighters
And type on the toast words of cheer

Wednesday 20 June 2012

COQ AU VAIN


Though a lazy hipster named Chief
Wears sneakers from Le Coq Sportif
The only sport he plays
On a week’s many days
Is to judge others with disbelief

Tuesday 19 June 2012

BOOTLEGGER


Though the rolled up jeans Dhan was wearing
Weren't original, weren't daring,
Pink Tiny Tim boots,
Worn for daily commutes,
Got him his yearned-for fair share of staring

HEAD AND SHOULDERS


A lad by the name of Jerome
Spied a marble bust at his mum’s home
He thought, “I will use that
To display my new hat
And the Le Specs I brought back from Rome”

Sunday 17 June 2012

MAGNUM WHITE


In shorts that were both white and tight
And a tank top toned equally light
A lad looked angelic
Channeling Tom Selleck
As a bonus, he glowed in the night

Saturday 16 June 2012

LOONY CORN

This shoulderpad-wearing young lass 
Ate, post her yogalates class,
"Gourmet" corn on the cob
That cost many a bob...
Its crazy high price was just crass

Friday 15 June 2012

HUES SORRY NOW


A young lad simply could not choose
Which Instagram filter to use
This extreme indecision
Led to damaged vision
Now he can't even make out hues

Thursday 14 June 2012

SUMMER SOLST-ASS


At a one-day, new-music festival
A lass calling herself Percival
Wore cut-offs so short
That her friend did retort:
“Why’s the moon out when there’s sun that’s estival?”

Wednesday 13 June 2012

FOOTLOSER


This hipster lad was just achin’
To emulate young Kevin Bacon:
His sweatshirts were improved
With each sleeve he removed,
Now to Footloose’s tunes his bum’s shakin’

Tuesday 12 June 2012

BAR TENDER


While lounging at a rooftop bar,
Showing his “fixie accident” scars
This lad almost cried
As he recalled the ride
That had damaged his Nitto drop bars

Monday 11 June 2012

TEAM SPIRIT


A young lad by the name of Mit
In front of ebay did sit
Searching: “vintage track team
T-shirts in white or cream”
To wear while smoking American Spirit

IN A PABST LIFE


In his best, oversized trucker cap,
While nursing a beer in his lap,
This young hipster boy
Felt immense loads of joy
From getting his dear Pabst on tap

Saturday 9 June 2012

BJORN THIS WAY


As he lay navel-gazing in bed  
While sporting sweatbands on his head,
This hipster lad feared
That his small "Bjorn Borg" beard
Simply made him look like a dickhead

Friday 8 June 2012

JUST IN TIME

A hipster alone, drinking gin 
And researching bands from Berlin,
Puts the volume to high
On his clandestine buy:
A CD from Timberlake, Justin


Thursday 7 June 2012

EASY STRIDER

His blonde, mullet haircut aside,
Another thing filled Floyd with pride:
His collection of shirts 
Made from tartan-print skirts,
Gave him reason to not walk, but stride



Wednesday 6 June 2012

KATJA N' THE RYE


An oversized-T-wearing guy
Looked so happy that he might just cry
When a hot lass sat down
Near him and, with a frown,
Asked the waiter for tofu on rye

Tuesday 5 June 2012

GOLDEN BOY


A young lad who calls himself Lamber,
Clad in his mom’s vintage Jil Sander,
Says to the poor bar man
“This beer poured from a can
Should be described as golden, not amber”

Monday 4 June 2012

SKATE BORED


A board-holding hipster named Nate
Felt his ego begin to deflate
When some gals passing by
Looked at him with a sigh
And said "I bet he can't even skate"

Sunday 3 June 2012

MISTER MYSTERIOUS


A lass thought this hipster delirious
When he said to her in tones serious:
"My issues are much
To deep for you to touch,
I'm sorry, I'm just so mysterious"

Saturday 2 June 2012

THE DOC IS IN


A hipster in Doc Martin boots
Heard two mainstream gals in cahoots
Say that they liked the guy’s
Choice of wear ‘neath his thighs -
He felt ill at such praise from "pleb newts"

Friday 1 June 2012

WINDOW PAIN

A lass by the name of Elaine
Was thrilled when it started to rain
She took many photos
Of her own "casual" pose:
Staring blankly through the window pane
