the turd wave ( evaw drut eht )
…
waking as the pastures baa
nature is a morning star
walk before the sun is up
rising like a buttercup
with a camera & a pen
breathe beyond the lies of men
butterflies & bumblebees
blossom petals on the breeze
listen to the bells of blue
knelling not of mutant pooh
hit the hills & dance with ants
as the normalz shat their pants
hare the air & scribble on
plod a song – on airstrip one
wander from this sinking shit
– doris johnson is a tit

oh, those noble gasses ( sessag elbon esoht ,ho )
…
old king krypton
from another planet
helium caesar
floats as rome burns
xenon the warrior
prince among lasers
archduke argon
plums in his throat
oganesson the inbred
wedding many cousins
& princess neon too
the lady in the lamplight
long may they radon

frog of a flower ( rewolf a fo gorf )
…
ponds in the heavens
puddle above us
songs in a cycle
highs of a lotus
mizzle is a twisting
wandering yonder
seeing is breathing
misting the focus
naps of a catkin
rhyming & chiming
iris’s cousins
dog with a bonus
hush in the clatter
catching a feather
here in the blearing
fluttering locus
mapping this magic
pencils & paper
piddle a riddle
hocus the pocus
frog of a flower
raining in colour
down in the dingle
showers of crocus

eat your fucking greens ( sneerg gnikcuf rouy tae )
…
a leek in a bucket
a pea in the bog
& a can
of whoop-asparagus

s pring is in the wings
of a pigeon in a hole
c lutter flies the flag
like a weasel up a pole
a s the normalz dance
with the bollocks on the snooze
t hunder rumbles on
& an otter swims the blues
t ime is tickled green
in the even of the morn
e lephants forget
for the past is yet unborn
r unaway & bee
with the bumbles up the brae
s ing upon a hill
& buzz the scuzz away

cee the light ( thgil eht eec )
…
candelabras, candles
cars in the night
cats eyes blinking
cavitation bubbles
concoctions combust
chemiluminescence
cygnus, cigarettes
coruscating cityscapes

quizzical contact ( tcatnoc lacizziuq )

alphabet spaghetti
is illegal in slovenia
henry the eighth
was born in a hay barn
clay pigeons nest
in a hole in the earth
all dark matter
is a shade of magenta
one in four apples
is secretly a pear
bears smoke kippers
with the pope – in the woods
most gnomes freeze
if seen by human eye’s
pie chart pastry
is flaky – yet invisible
may flies live
for sixty seven moons
lemon curd is banned
in the land of kurdistan
stick to the path
or the thicket consumes
answers on a post-it note
– fact check & lose

found on the 18th of march ( hcram fo ht81 eht no dnuof )
…
add one beaten egg
songbirds learn their song
the same way that humans
learn how to speak
charged with murder
left in a coma
gathered in parliament square
liquid concentrated
no right turn
9000 tonnes
of discarded hardware
road ahead closed
may contain nuts
for oral administration
…

i didn’t write-write any of the above
just collected & rearranged

jog off, jogger-nought ( thguon-reggoj ,ffo goj )
…
sing of headless chicken shits
& pigeon-livered sorts
ploughing down pedestrians
– those fucking jogger-noughts
thinking all must disappear
& clear a “special” path
for the sweating lycra-legged
& scatter like a graph
or the walking folk will fall
upon a tosser’s trot
as the weasel pistons pump
within the flesh of bot
see the scree of mamil men
the carnage barging through
cripple’s clutches flying high
a pram is halved in two
nuns beneath the pickled stink
of pissing prancing feet
chasing karma’s twisted tail
upon a darkened street
running into blacker blues
a gasping avenue
feathered breath is fading fast
& death is chasing you
