a solo effort ( some verse of )
…
yet when the moon doesn't help
& them chuckles hide in puddles
as it's too puzzled by itself
when them words are all befuddled
as the day's gravel 'n' gravy
hence then the birdsong's gone confused
& so grey's the may in maybe
pray tell us
what then do we do
( ? )

the return of spring-heeled jack ( a true tale in a poemz-formz of )
…
i saw him leap from roof to roof he does exist - there goes the proof that wicked cloak & bouncy boots it must be he - who can refute? gravity's strong but he prevails still nimble now & no less frail gasps of wonder lie in his trail & frightened types like lucy scales sightings have re-spread - towns, cities keep them eyes peeled - it might be he a true folk legend there to see in the twenty first century remain cautious - he might attack perhaps he slept? let's stick to facts it's been a while but yes he's back it's the return of spring-heeled jack ...

from the static-charged sky
if we're already choking
on a bay leaf - yeah - or five
plus have athlete's foot
& yet no one knows why

as the crowbar flies ( if in doubt – bother a cousin )
…
there is movement in the city through its streets, pavements & jitties there are staggers in the valley where them dawdlers dilly dally in the town criers are shouting certain thomas's are doubting in the woods squirrels are waltzing as pole vaulters are revolting there are echos trapped down old wells as the purists practice old spells as the tortoises are rushing & burst sewage pipes are gushing & then there's a pond on fire the bogged down stuck in the mire plus all those missing bits to find as the crowbar flies in my mind ...
