rivers on the run

~

rivers on the run ( nur eht no srevir )

…

live ‘n’ letter diagrams
westerly wheezes
dazes in a floral chain
rabbit with a gun

diametric diaphragms
firefly friezes
gibbons on a lizard brain
underneath the sun

hypnotists ‘n’ holograms
hopes ‘n’ smoked cheeses
wobbles on a cobbled lane
icing on a bun

logarithmic monograms
pantomime pleases
porpoises in pouring rain
twiddle’s fiddle-dum

iridescent pentagrams
peppermint sneezes
operation paper plane
rivers on the run

telepathic telegrams
bumblebee breezes
bonce upon a once again
quill the deed is done
…

first love

~

first love ( evol tsrif )

…

licking her out
under oak tree boughs
of a sunny afternoon

walking in the park
with her in my hand
by the brass bandstand

supping as she drips
in the sweet heat here
on the promenade / pier

sauce & toppings too
butterscotch & ground nuts
oh, my dream, ice cream
…

snippet & stick it

~

snippet & stick it ( ti kcits & teppins )

…

see how they rhumba

rousing thunder clouds

      three blind minah birds

      mayfly myrmidons

swans upon swansongs

once upon a wanderlust

      dusting a feather

      in the whether of the knot

morris men in mirror lands

magnetic maps

      six in the mourning

      weeping onion tears

myrrh in this murmur

stroking the weird

      of a billy goat’s beard

      floating over clover

here be the rubber match

lick another tongue twist

      stick with the twigs

      in the riddle of a wood

hooded like a robin

hiding in the ivy

      may contain nutmeg

      guess the restless rest

…

picnic in the rain

~

picnic in the rain ( nair eht ni cincip )

…

shiver on a bench
bathing in a sunless grey
bask in britain’s drench

as the stratus gush
buckets on this darkened park
bread is formless mush

sandwiches collapse
like a castle on the beach
as the tide attacks

cirrus rat-a-tat
spilleth cups of former fizz
lemonade is flat

crisps have lost their crunch
where the piss is pounding down
sodden is this lunch

still the river roars
run before it eats us all
bugger off indoors
…

magnetic rats

~

magnetic rats ( star citengam )

…

see the us in we
shards of glass, a dark crevasse
splitting like a pea

as the demon skag
pricks apart the spark of heart
maiden, mother, hag

fading as a ghost
once a signet, since a swan
you’re tomorrow’s toast

i’m a blooming fool
not a willing sacrifice
daft but not a tool

all is scattered dust
butter fingers, sinking sand
sputterings of rust

drifting planks of wood
sob a song & cue the rain
bad is the new good

blue is green & gold
in your twisted mirror land
soon it’s black & cold
…

a u g u s t ( t s u g u a )

…

a pples tumble down

   another summer stumbles

   ants soar above us

u nder shrouds of cloud

    ushering a hawthorn hue

    unicorns weeping

g reen is greengages

   gourdish hordes of cucumbers

   grass is golden bales

u mber is the sun

   until september nestles

   upon these thistles

s he will sneeze again

   swooping on the prickled fools

   soothsayers say so

t oads rain by teatime

   tomorrow pokes a wasp hive

   tossers scribble on
