whittles in me pickles

whittles in me pickles  (  r h y m e s  l a t e  2 0 1 7  )

…





pincers crab the apples

drizzle spits the spittle

feathers fluff the ruffles

topples in me skittles


whispers witch the cackles

yeoman blow the whistles

tossers cock the shuttles

wingers in me dribbles


guessers grasp the grapples

fuckers bone the brittle

grocers sprout the brussels

tingles in me tickles


even songs the chapels

builders shit the brickle

shimmer shims the shuffles

swindles in me swivels


thunder storms the castles

weasels stream the trickles

doubters snout the truffles

hammers in me sickles


burbles squirm the squiggles

dabblers dab the dapple

winter coats the duffel

nibbles in me quibbles


dodgers jam the raffel

triggers kiss the pistols

buskers miss the bustle

muddles in me mickles


spinners bowl the battles

sibyls mist the riddles

burbles burst the bubbles

whittles in me pickles

plods in frost

plods in frost  (  s i x t e e n  l i n e s  o f  s a l t  f o r  t h e  s e a s o n e d  )

…



the cocks are crows - or so folk say

& egg's the head as shell's the lay

the snorts are mare & noughts are flossed

as autumn's chair it rocks in lofts


the bells are bats as cats they stray

& scrap's the flaps as bailed's the hay

the sun is spun & spurts of toss

& mint's the crisp as gobs are sloshed


the pen is swans & songs of splay

& slurred's the earth as curd's the whey

the span has ploughed & shroud's the croft

& farmed's the palm as hands are swashed


the die is iced & slide's the brae

& skimmed's the air as winds they flay

the squidge is dead - we've lost the squash

it's crunch in tread & plods in frost

the annual shoehorn

the annual shoehorn  (  f o r  s c u m d a y  &  a l l  t h a t  f u c k i n ‘  s h i t e  )

…






dowsers rousing fire fighters

lepers lifting excavators

bottles peeing troubleshooters

letters essing escalators


sunders pipping underwriters

umber salting pepper shakers

warbles waltzing water coolers

wizards whipping candlemakers


slumber stoning overnighters

silver spooning lunar craters

pandas splashing paratroopers

titters topping undertakers


watchers spotting supervisors

weasels wheezing ventilatrors

nutters spitting gabbled goobers

tigers striping rattled sabres


havoc spawning organisers

pencils penning illustrators

losers lapping top computers

snoozers trawling dawdled acres


rambles mashing scrambled ciphers

swazzles swapping alternators

rubble rubbing rubber rulers

dwindles thinning nimble skaters


nipples nipping ankle biters

scooters tooting moderators

tudors roaming roman sewers

suitors frocking freckled sailors


buzzards bashing bishop's mitres

tossing scrapping tottered paper

sunken stumping drunken stooper

poodle spew

& see yous later

trudge in the dithers

~

trudge in the dithers  (  o n e  f o r  t h e  l i s t e r s  )

…





trudge in the dithers & leaves in the line

fudge in the rivers & keys in the sign

cats in the whiskers & rats in the wine

nudge in the triggers & trees in the pine


kicks in the scissors & bales in the twine

sticks in the zippers & dales in the brine

stars in the sisters & baas in the swine

twists in the knickers & snails in the slime


quacks in the dippers & hums in the chime

flaps in the flickers & sun in the shine

sting in the blisters & swing in the vine

cracks in the mirrors & spun in the spine


ales in the bitters & mist in the clime

whales in the whispers & whips in the nine

dogs in the dinners & grog in the grime

tails in the titters & lists in the rhyme

...

 

all soul’s day

all soul’s day  (  a  p o e m  f o r  y e s t e r d a y  )

…






speckles breezing tangent planes

settles leaving stagnant trains

shekels counting counterclaims

nettles weaving plangent chains


fiddles stringing weather vanes

riddles springing feather fains

portals snorting water mains

scribbles singing heather flames


cobbles stalking trodden lanes

bobbles talking cotton strains

mottles hushing hurricanes

wobbles horsing rotten reins


barrels scraping middle names

bottles shaping picture frames

raffles rasping acid rain

babbles aping lizard brains

...

 

novesque

novesque  (  a  p o e m  f o r  n o v  &  e m b e r )

…





dogs spool in paddles & toads stool in tool kits

pips poke in apples & sleep is the bee

bobs boat in barrels & toads shit in stone pits

bricks blow in baffles & creak is the tree


jam wings in raffles & wings hag in moonlit

bangs slam in gavels & squeak is the key

rams sing in rabbles & spring sings in black pits

hands stand in axles & sleep is the sea


worms can in cackles & stars stoop in loose fits

books squirm in satchels & green is the tea

germs garb in gabbles & ants farm in armpits

feet speak in shackles & kneel is the key


toss spits in camels & sag flaps in blue tits

flow sinks in saddles & frieze is the pea

toes tip in battles & plots spin in cockpits

tocks tick in babbles & clocks watch in me
