spring rain poem  (  g o  o n  ,  t a k e  a  w i l d  g u e s s  c h a s e  )

…




drip upon a buttercup

double dusk & rubber ducks

tingles in the spindle tree

mizzle eve & pucker up


drop upon a daffodil

clatter songs of cladophyll

brazaville - its brasseries

tapestries & badger bilge


drip upon a hyacinth

header, line & hyroglyph

otter wins the lottery

hoverfly & cycle clips


drop upon a bell o' blue

retinas & red canoes

levity in leprosy

reverie & retinues


drip upon a celandine

mother 'erb & lemon thyme

supper in the scullery

stuttery - & bread 'n' wine


drop upon a garden's gnome

gargle on & gardens hose

greenery in preening leas

marbleous & gardens glow

fuck a duck – it’s april  (  a  t r u e  t a i l  )

…




sinnel spoons the spirals

simmer ditch & rifles

spittle tricks the mizzle

nutter noons & cycles


faster sings the badger

hinter-lamb & pasture

scatter squids the scribble

natterjacks & aster


easter rings the steeple

seasonally as measles

river mists the drizzle

greenery & weasels


blossom hops the maple

rub-abud & hazel

bollocks itch the fiddle

fuck a duck - it's april

poem missing

have you seen it?

wormed & mongrel

bites if cornered

lives on daydreams

cake & nectar

seven antlers

toes of oboe

feeds the pigeons

wonky nostrils


floats on puddles

boats & bubbles

born last whitsun

( a u t h o r  n o d e s  )

if you see someone

out & about

& you don't know them

& said person is looking in their pockets

don't go up to them

& ask them what they're looking for

- that's nosy & a bit wank

-

someone did that to me earlier

so i told them fuck off & mind their own business

& they deserved that

( wankers )
