house head ( 1 min-ish reeeeeeeeeead )




this is my house - this is my head

my house has springs

my head has bed


 with kitchen sinked neuronic dips

no canvassers

drips constant drips


as moths descend ( as locusts swarm )

'ark - kettle calls

she keeps us warm


them bats aloft those belfryed bunch

fried word salad

yum healthy lunch


quaint potterings then curtains twitch

itchy temple

prayers mental itch


meanderings - the odd black hole

do living rooms

also have souls?


blocked clocks are leaking bits of time

in this cottaged

humbled home mind


the tumble driers in a spin

please wipe both feet

on your way in

...















there branches spread

~

there branches spread ( a brief poetical pondering )




there are some owls that prefer day

& eat no meat

chips are their prey


there are some fish that cannot swim

with flows they go

the water's whims


there are some trees with roots abound

above - their trunk

grows underground


there branches spread beneath the earth

a bit different

( for what it's worth )

...






















ungrazed knees

~

ungrazed knees ( a brief seasonal jaunt in that there rhyme )



then winter fell with ungrazed knees

some bells did knell

unleafed the trees


their branches bare - our numbing toes

it's everywhere

a white cock crows


i think of she, he & then them

sequentially

goodwill to men


excluding scum & wrong'uns too

no insects hum

no bluebells blue


our lucky scarves & uncursed gloves

look - a buzzard

soars high above


with ungrazed knees aye winter fell

i hope it treats

you kind & well

...






















soup issues

~

( soup issues, a brief poems )


too many cooks they ruin soup

the same applies

to chefs with toques


or is that broth? but broth's a soup

dotage pottage

that tinned stuff too


you've plot the lost - i've lost the stock

then chefs descend

the broth is off


as horses drink from led-to troughs

& leopards once

more change their spots

...
