what the fog … ?

what the fog … ? ( a foggy poem-read )

…



the views have vanished

here today

here has no distance

just this grey


i saw the flying

dutchman sail

in silhouette form

 down yon vale


along yon river

with this chill

surrounded by a

lack of hills


oh has my mind as

focus gone?

oh what the fog is

going on?

an apple …

an apple … ( a short poemz of )

…



an apple a day

keeps the doctor away


a painting a day

helps the artist portray


a beret a day

keeps our chic heads français


jarlsberg everyday

keeps our cheeses norway


a tutu a day

keeps our dances ballet


garlic everyday

keeps those vampires at bay


a game everyday

means the sought hideaway


( but )


a poem a day

keeps this odd-shit in-play


( sorry )

that vital spot

that vital spot ( a poem for dayboxing )

…



i'd like to scribe you a poem

but lacked that vital spot

to sit & think & spill some ink

as by the fire was far too hot


i'd love to scribe you a poem

as words are all i've got

the mortuary was death-dead cold

then at my desk sat goldilocks


i need to scribe you a poem

like pineapples need chunks

so down the garden one did plod

but there the faeries got us drunk


i have not scribed you a poem

all efforts sadly sunk

beneath those seas of circumstance

so fuck it - here's the usual junk

button-issues ( a brief poetical )

…




we're pushing buttons

all day long


we're switching buttons

off & on


like bellys or lights

watch them glow


ooh - shining like a

button nose


the buttons in our

buttoned head


they say don't panic

nah, instead


keep pushing buttons

button up


the right one's hiding

button luck
