mind bingo ( a short true tale )



often whilst out

to pass time

i play bingo

in my mind


mental-dobbing

things i see

look - a shepherd

23


a wolf whistling

11

a lucky charm

( dob ) that's 7


two little ducks

22

one little duck

me & you


yonder by the

garden gates

two fat ladies

88


a musty hive

55

bingo - i've won

where's my prize?

a fucking sonnet

~

a fucking sonnet ( my first & probably last attempt at writing one )




when shakespeare had a bee in his bonnet

well sod it he cursed not of the twat bee

'stead sat at his disk then penned a sonnet

in his sonnet style he named after he


oh so modestly then back to them plays

in his 2-up 2-down in london town

piss ups on fridays - it's a p.o.e.t.s day

whisky & brandy with brown ale so brown


yet bees we need far more than bill shakespeare

indeed they sting but kill rarely they do

piss ups are valid - granted that's right dear

shakespeare had clown feet he wore special shoes


sonnets are wankers bugger off bye-bye

a shite i don't give as uncouth am i

lines on tradition

lines on tradition ( a brief moan )




tradition insists

a nod - a kiss

a courtseyed bow

which god exists


what day it is

& what's day's name

make up your own

don't play their game


who wears the crown on

which special head

pick them - they're rich

plus so inbred


six-fingered logic

how do you do?

your pigeon holes

are antiques too

don’t try to catch a falling star ( 8 lines of health ‘n’ safety )




don't try to catch a falling star

you'll lose your hand perhaps an arm

or leap to kiss you'll lose your face

they aint feathers - they come from space

bits of debris & meteorite

wish from a distance 'pon a night

don't try to catch a falling star

you'll lose your face

perhaps an arm

nature knows

~

nature knows ( under a minute of read-thing )



yes nature knows

the price of tea

in china like

their steel it's cheap


the saying goes

as followed through

please see above

now back to you


as it's all maths

uncharted maps

the margins &

the paragraphs


confusion reigns

on subject brains

yet kings aint

nature - smudges stain


a wonky smile

of maybes too

zephyrus west

breeze sneeze a clue


there's wicked tricks

plus booby traps

so please fill in

the many gaps


thus help us out

is this a quiz?

yes buzz in if

you think it is


with answers please

please some of those

& no cheating

as nature knows

sundown sinking

sundown sinking ( 24 lines of read )




sundown sinking

bowing heads

going down like

flasher's kegs

bismarckically

endgame shite

dead swan star song

bright twilight


mrs wilson

come & see

golden kisses

slobber trees

bits of carrot

in in their mouths

too polite to

spit it out


thrushes fluster

in their roosts

impatient owls

start to hoot

hallowed be thy

shit 'ot rays

the night is nigh

t'ra day
