on the weigh in ( ni hgiew eht no )
…
an ounce of nimbus clouds in a silver shekel sky an anchor on my back & a pound in my pocket a heave in the ho as the eve is leaden legged like a load of pygmy mammoths so the leas bow down as the moon flutters up there's a hare in the air & a newton of newts in a sack brown bog ushering us pilgrims to the stone of swirling circles a feather on the breeze & a metric ton of hedgehogs ...

the chattering ( gnirettahc eht )

quivers spin within the cosh in the swish - the bubbles splosh piss upon the whirl awash bats & cars - a splattering breezes cheese & thunder drums bees-a-swan a twizzled tongue beetles pushing squalls of dung all is balls, a scattering suns hiccup in burps of bright jungles jig within the knight mumbles hum & jumbles sprite scraps of sprat - the chattering ambles of an afternoon salad spews beneath the moon sand is sunk as cackles croon puffing much - & that's the thing ...

beyond the peas ( saep eht dnoyeb )
…
beneath the glum of fiddle dum
the portents scrawl to kingdom scum
the sun's the star
of trar-luh-lar
as orchards hang & bang's a drum
within the squirms of earthen toss
the tripe of the likes, the writes of doss
the broken bones
the drones of clones
a drip of piss, a pint of dross
upon the song of flaccid rain
& squiggles of the lizard brain
the surface soil
as saucepans boil
a dream unseen - it's beige again
a yawn is born, the squall of squibs
a trickling of tickled ribs
a stickleback
a sack o' cack
the pilfering of pilchard nibs
beyond the peas of tees & hees
& limericks of chortled cheese
the normalz sorts
guffaws & snorts
for weasels with lobotomies
i ode to glow & lick the moon
& dance the ants of pantaloon
a pad, a pen
a scrap & then
the nadgers of a splattered loon

flesh is death ( htaed si hself )

flesh is death & meat is murmurs sylpid gristle, screaming burgers phantom hams, a sausage slaughter would you eat your son or daughter? spitting on the coals & smoking shrieking steam, the imp is roasting sucking ka - the spark & aether crucifixions, lambs & easter gooses groan & witches cackle puddings from the blood of cattle massacres for christmas dinner ducks & under, chickens simmer black is blue & all is sickness balls for ghouls - the sky's my witness flesh is death & meat is murmurs sylphid gristle, screaming burgers ...
