the self-portrait of a fruit bowl  (  a  p o e m  &  a  t r u e  t a l e  )





the self-portrait of a fruit bowl

those oranges, apples & pears

with bananas to lend a hand

& plenty of berries in there


the self-portrait of a fruit bowl

plus nuts thus we've not lost the plot

they painted then when we were sleep

but don't ask us who painted what

ropy oak tree poetry  (  s o m e  r o p y  v e r s e  )





ropy oak tree poetry

the stuff all's heard before

its leaves are just like similes

its acorns - metaphors


in some ways we're all oak trees

with those seasons we grow

yeah then there's roots - of course green shoots

plus stormy winds can blow


ropy oak tree poetry

i'm strangely drawn to you

magnetically with extra weird

oh what else can i do?


but pen a little plod to thee

a piddle on me pad

it's ropy oak tree poetry

then somehow i feel glad

feeding the ducks

feeding the ducks  (  a  s i x t e e n  l i n e  r e a d  )





feeding the ducks

with stale bready crusts

ducks never cluck

yes ducks bring us luck


chickens - they cluck

as minstrels they pluck

feeding the ducks

no whirlpool here sucks


stale bready crusts

for ducks or their such

camels with humps

here waterfowl munch


felled trees are stumped

it's quarter past lunch

grateful those ducks

so quacks very much

war isn’t art  (  a  p o e t r y  o f  )



war isn't art

war has no muse

or dull journal

called war review


where is the grace

in bloody death?

shush war, don't waste

your bloody breath


in art at school

nobody died

our paint was red

so our insides


stayed safe within

then we sniffed glue

war isn't art

fuck you sun tzu

gobshite f.c

i've lost me tin

fucked for the cup

the league as well


me lucky tin

with stuff within

get on it yous

oh fucking hell


'tis magic stuff

that means we win

now focus shrinks

doom bloats - doom swells


above black clouds

are gathering

as thirteen bells

ring dead-tin-knells


( keep searching )

then clean out your hair


iron your nose

then blow your clothes

all for equality but …  (  s o m e  s h i t e  p o e t r y  )



tall people

they're consuming room

far too much - they're blocking our views


face in clouds

so lost in themself

too selfish for 

anyone else


tall people

oh why jesus why?

with their different heads in the sky


lanky twats

that has to be said

when i'm king it's

 off with their legs
