Jolt

(  j o l t  p o e m  )


jolt to a start

yes jolt out them vaults

flare your nostrils

& sweat like a colt

feel these jumpleads

energy - many volts

the buzz, the hum 

( & )

the whirr of the waltz



jolt for your salt

with chopped skipping hops

jolt out of bed

then nip down yon shops

fuelled by sweet tea

& too much fizzy pop

overdo it then

( oh )

jolt to a stop

...

where to write  (  a  t r u e  s t o r y  s o  n o t  r e a l l y  a  s t o r y  t h e n  )




on the settee

when there's shit on telly


under some trees

as the breeze tickles knees


sat on the bog

if you're not shatting logs


scrawl in your bonce

if you're walking the dog


upon a peak

when the day is grim-grey


under duvets

with your torch in p.jays


on the bus home

rock 'n' roll - fuckin' yes


sat at a desk

with its sheets

& this mess

...





















an acorn calls …

~

an acorn calls …  (  p o e m s  )



sweet damson jam

& that aswan dam

those horns of pan

jaw of piltdown man


collect your thoughts

yes - an acorn calls

with a4 scrawls

as an aphid crawls


be flim in flam

& the spick in span

that kick in can

as the also ran


let all burst forth

as mad bastard sprawls

make mess from nought

yes - collect your thoughts
