this poetry is mind control ( some much needed truth )



this poetry is mind control

this distraction's your ball & chain

with words designed to steal your soul

re-program & re-wire your brain


yet make you think you're more aware

deceptive as all metaphors

true evil runs the world out there

beyond these words rage many wars

let’s ruminate ( a 20 line read )




let's ruminate - us thoughtful cows

on big questions - the whats? the hows?

like do these spots make us look fat?

or what came first

 that field or plough?


the nature of the mooniverse

when we go dry is this a curse?

was velcro made by aliens?

who made this earth

 our sacred turf?


on which we graze through bovine days

b.s.e free yet slightly crazed

when we lie down do we make rain?

we're wonder-struck

 & awe-amazed


we're lost for answers, this is true

udderly puzzled - giz a clue

we're flummoxed plus the kitchen sink

as cowpats splat

 & bullshit too

the dog in me

the dog in me ( some poem )


the dog in me

barks up wrong trees

in wrong spinneys

isosceles


or woods - maybe

dogs don't eat cheese

in wrong spinneys

i'm not maltese


knobbly knees

the dog in me

barks up wrong trees

perchance a sneeze


no dogs don't ski

in wrong spinneys

please stroke me please

i am flea-free

jammy dodgers

~

dodged ( a semi-autobiographical piece offering )


we've dodged bullets from farmer's guns

geddoff moy lanndd ( quick - leg it - run )


we've dodged the rain that soaks the ground

& dodgy men that own fairgrounds


we've dodged loose slates that weigh a ton

- those webs those giant spiders spun -


we've dodged the wrath of scared cows

but we've been jammy

up 'til now
