hey, kurzweil ( liewzruk ,yeh )

robots will never

smell the petrichor

wafting up nostrils

from orgaicoil soil

~

stirring a song

for the hinterland’s band

– no, not the robots

the metal or flesh

~

too busy writing

poems online

& shining illusory shoes

~

walking the dog

on the crust of the moon

~

waving the flag

of the latest bot-fad

~

robots will never

catch athlete’s foot

from a paraplegic

fatso

~

badgering on

with a blister so persistent

she even switches heels

…

thinking hats

thinking hats ( stah gnikniht )

…

a pork pie & i
lost in a haze of berets
& deerstalker blear

here within this maze
beavers sitting on my head
once upon a bonce

when the top is up
fedora meditations
flow like a trilby

in a flat cap sea
feathers in the sun above
dunce dee over me

focused on boaters
thoughts about a mortar board
or a ducal crown

musing on mitres
reflecting upon a fez
( don’t burst my bobble )

…

( author notes )

artist of the photograph unknown

but fair play

it’s unmistakably shrek

he of brighter bicycles ( selcycib rethgirb fo eh )

…

i’m a breathing pantomime

sings the scribbled ink

      with some super glue

      stick a pube or two

he of brighter bicycles

an easter egregore

      all is throbbing thickets

      & toads upon toadstools

rabbits not rubble

the catch is in the double

     trembles of treble

      as hares box the air

hespero & i

wandered of a morning

      on the road of romans

      quarrymen & drovers

time is like a light

in the dim of thought

      nought is but an egg

      scrambling the smeg

weaver of before

in the mirror – rayed

      ‘fore the dawn’s middle eight

       & chorus to fade

further echoes backwards

foxes electrify badgers

farmers eat buttercups

faraway elephants bark

fabled easterlies blow

fireflies egg babylon

future endeavoured bluebells

florists emancipate bakers

floating excelsior’s beyond

fruitful’s endless bunions

fucking easter bonnets

the dalek buds of may

the dalek buds of may ( yam fo sdub kelad eht )

…

nettles run this planet earth
when the cuckoo’s near

come the eve of whitsuntide
in the northern sphere

of an egg in milky space
of a holocene

so the dandelions roar
on the grasses green

in the pantaloons of spring
see the thicket rise

throbbing like a time lord’s hearts
‘fore our mutant eyes

tangled brambles climbing high
by the garden gate

laser ray the weeds away
– exterminate, exterminate

…

coffee & sneezy

~

coffee & sneezy ( yzeens & eeffoc

…

patter on the pane
pitter on again

nailing a tale
on a force ten gale

lock a locket tight
tenter is the night

hooked upon the spy
of a spider’s eye

when eleven calls
crawling up the walls

bolt a howling door
while the loft mice roar

spin a growling oak
heaving even’s soak

weave a drier though
’til horizons glow

…

a bit of a div

a bit of a div ( vid a fo tib a )

…

moon in afternoon

merge in murky water

     with your then reflection

      peeping at the ripples

see the mincing mist

clear beyond the smear

      of a camp campaign

      & a spectral projection

faraway is late

never’s better though

      parp another parsnip

      as a crocus croaks

while the clocks fly

ticking like a bomb

      or the creaking ticker

      of a jibber-jabber man

wade in dunlop boots

rubber like a duck

      or the dub – in tubs

      sailing out & seabound

sun in shrouded cloud

coddled like an egghead

      shine again – y’ wanker

      giz a fuckin’ cuddle
