blurb song

blurb song ( gnos brulb )

…

roadworks ahead

red means go

      grow your own poems

      in a bum notebook

may contain nutter

keep two metres

      like a good little gimp

      use by last tuesday

sew facing south

with a pebble in your mouth

      this way uppercut

      crossed parry fingers

shake like a sheikh

on a bumpy camel ride

      defrost thoroughly

      & dance like a pixie

singing in the spring

in e-flat minor

      gargle in the garden

      as the crowbar flies

soak both ends

in lukewarm thistle milk

      every other sunday

      is a monday in disguise

monks ‘n’ monkey me

~

monks ‘n’ monkey me ( em yeknom ‘n’ skom )

…

silence is alive
shiver in this shibboleth
in between the breaths of death
like the i in we

weaving in the mist
downing tins of bouncing beans
singing songs of headless queens
smoking sesame

dancing with the ants
pantomimes in pantaloons
as a rabid badger croons
pissing up a tree

so beneath the moon
see the beams of lucifer
tickle uncle jupiter
morning is a key

’til the sun’s a star
when the lark’s a garden gnome
if the wind’s a metronome
seek the green of lea

hens as pecking pens
marching as a tiger barks
pencil sharpeners, sharks ‘n’ snarks
monks ‘n’ monkey me

catch a catkin’s nap
ink to timbuktu or france
prancing with a spastic stance
scribble on & see

…

( alternative names for winter ) ( retniw rof senam evitanretla )

…

moss greening season

lichen’s lantern light

catkin naptime

snow’s intermission

the mistletoe months

frost’s interregnum

hot chocolate’s calling

the doldrum’s rectum

spring’s bleak prequel

haunted autumn’s sequel

the bleak mid-wither

summer’s evil twin

barking stuff

barking stuff ( ffuts gnikrab )

…

barking in a wood
the bark of a postage stamp
but the bark stops here

bark where i belong
eyes in the bark of my head
all the way bark home

& barking the trend
feel like a million barks
scratching my bark side

bark against the wall
it’s water off a duck’s bark
the bark of beyond

we’re in the bark yard
like johann sebastian
yeah, bark to square one

bark in the saddle
with a monkey on your bark
barking both horses

…

erm squirms …

erm squirms …

…

quizzical the quibbles jog
wander in the spawning fog

wonder under distant suns
like a cheetah with the runs

splatter natters in a pan
haring as the tortoise ran

where the air is paper thin
time is like an onion skin

pickled if the piper’s pied
skeletal yet bona fide

horse within the walls of troy
normalzz calls & bland ahoy

like a song beyond a swan
plod the shores of avalon

roundabouts is back again
dancing in the acid rain

badgers cadge another tab
if the jibbered blither’s jab

running from the daemon prick
clucking ’til the chickens click

mountain ash or rowan tree?
is a river poetry?

catch the bus but miss the boat
answers on a post-it-note

s weeter than a nuthatch

   singing in the spring

   syrup chirruped hymns

o lder than the old school

   ornithological

   odes upon a morn

n estled in the woodland

   nodding like a rocking horse

   newer than the dawn’s

g listening skin

   gargle like a lark

   glowing with the clover

b lackbirds & thrushes

   bobbing with the robins

   bouncing like a bomb

i n between the sound

   is the whispering breeze

   interludal blues

r hythm with wings

   ruffles raven feather’s

   red wings middle-eight

d own in the dingle

   dawdle in the sound

   dancing forever

…

sing of sinking sand
crackles on the telephone
breaking up the band

leaves upon the breeze
summer on sabbatical
personalities

face another daze
exit left & left again
scribble in this maze

scramble like an egg
leg it if the time is up
down a powder keg

atoms in a bomb
broken biscuit overtures
fissure with aplomb

from the glue of you
making one & one from two
fuck it – toodleooh
