larking in a barn
prancing as the farmers plough
dancing with the owls

cats all folks ( sklof lla stac )
…
catalogues hunt mice
cathedrals carping catarrh
caterers burn cakes
as the cattle moo
masticate & mass debate
cataclysms purr
catatonic pap
catastrophe is blooming
so the catkins crow
but the scatty rub
dries like mummification
scatters on the breeze
catch another nap
dream’s the sweetest catalyst
caterpillar tracks
catfish caterwaul
wassails in catamarans
polecats up maypoles

electrical red vinyl

oh, those fucking poetz ( zteop gnikcuf esoht ,ho )
…
posturing ponces with song in their bonces
mutants of music if rhythm esconces
humming ‘n’ strumming a pen’s instrumentals
lepers with pencils, the notes of the mentalz
scrotes of a morning, the welkin is yawning
clatter is calling if bollocks is dawning
nattering nutters, a sputter of clutter
trolling the normalz, the scrawls of the other
blithering babbles, a swan for the annals
supping not nectar – but dross from the barrels
witches ‘n’ wizards which sunbathe in blizzards
wailing ‘n’ howling the out of the innards
stoats in a forest of badgers ‘n’ weasels
dancing on sabbaths, the ill in illegals
tossers ‘n’ dossers, the scum of the earthen
burn all the poets, the beasts of this burden
– fuckers

oh, those bloody poemz ( zmeop ydoolb esoht ,ho )
…
catch a feather pen
when the breeze is blowing so
as remember’s embers glow
squid the nib & then
sputterings of dust
spanners, spins ‘n’ spatulas
colanders ‘n’ calendars
rummages ‘n’ rust
scatterings of ash
passengers on paper planes
wobbles on a cobbled lane
scratches of a rash
aches ‘n’ scrapes of scrotes
jottings in a tosser’s log
tangents in the phantom fog
shapes of nature’s notes
music is the glue
oddness is an odyssey
prosody’s a lottery
fuck it, that’ll do
piddles in a pad
sinking with the kitchenette
piffle on the internet
scribbles of the mad
…

cracking on ( no gnikcarc )
…
eggs laid at daybreak
scrambled like the curate’s head
ciphers for breakfast

lest we forget ( tegtof ew tsel )

trunks that prod the cogs
elephantine teleprompts
epigenetics

inner-nutshell ( & out the other ) ( ( rehto eht tuo & ) llehstun-renni )
…
swans upon an interim
summer hums a winter hymn
wither weaves a tapestry
sputters dust ‘n’ flams the flim
~
in the realm of mizzle men
misery’s a piffle pen
rasps a gasping raspberry
whelms the whim of fizzle then
~
when the wren is but a crow
rivers run a backwards flow
flutter by the banks & see
sunken suns, an afterglow
~
broken odes & mirror lands
finger food for phantom hands
screwing loosened shrews in me
kitchen sinks in sinking sands
~
in between the peaking trough
whispers in the breezes scoff
dangle from a branching tree
spins the snug of bugger off
~
flopping forth in flaccid rain
death is pecking on the brain
storming like a cup of tea
’til the scribbles strike again
…

the things we sniff ( ffins ew sgniht eht )
…
petrichoral earth
when the rain falls dry
terror in the eyes
of the muzzled mask-brigade
buns in the oven
bakers up the duff
onions in the pan
after weeping their demise
recycled garbage
parped from the pulpit
doom on the snooze
& the b.b.c’s bullshit
roses up noses
sing a ring o’ death
petals in the breeze
on the wheezing, sneezing air
milk, if it’s off
sulphur from a ghost
cheese in me socks
or grilled on toast
soup on simmer
metal, if we smelt it
farts from the arse
of the croupier that dealt it
