crackin’ in

crackin’ in ( coz rhymes can be free too )


crackin' up?

crackin' in

tentacles

pack it in


kraken yous

natterjack

bubblewrap

cul-de-sacs


toad on road

air pockets

soothsayers

eye sockets


portents here

bubble burst

stub a toe

ow - that hurts


~


phone a friend?

make one up

be a bee

sup, sup, sup


wear a face

don a gown

i've seen her

around town


vanishings

stroke an ear

candlemas

disappear


turnip wars

piffle vest

sandwiches

( bless this mess )

crafted by hand

~

crafted by hand ( some truths & out the other one )




all of these poems

are crafted by hand

no fancy machines

as it's art - isan


but just who is anne?

you misunderstand

no robotic prods

just shat pen - that's grand


as birds boss the skies

as sheep graze the land

one scribbles on sheets

shit riddles of man


it's bespoke ( of course )

all part of the plan

so don't knock this wank

'twas crafted by hand

...

































a cloudless sky

~

a cloudless sky ( disturbing sheet indeed )




a cloudless sky

where have they gone?

just clueless blue

something is wrong


the sun dial smiles

yet can't explain

this lack of shade

this lack of rain


perhaps the clouds

last stormy night

fell out with god

then went on strike


thence huffed their way

behind the moon

to hide a while

( ? )

please come back soon

vulnerable

~

vulnerable ( 8 lines of something )



if you yawn upon a morn

in that bit beyond the dawn

by a cool pool or pond or such

or a lake where insects swarm


careful with that morrowed yawn

you're exposed - insects get drawn

via your gob they'll hive your mind

they'll nest-infest

- you have been warned -

( village spillage )

~

( village spillage )

another vaguely poetical rant

inspired by another morning run-in with a true wrong’un

( i’ll spare you the details )




busy bodies

gawpy sorts

gossip mongers

nonsense talk

flaps of piffle

squawks & squawks

they're watching all

like a hawk



with shite eyesight

blinkers on

squinting - blinking

reason's gone

bitter since y'old

days of yon

dream of upper

echelons



nosy bastards

wanky spies

fuelled by gubbins

porky pies

thorny thinking

spiky lies

plague pits piling

in their eyes



busy bodies

fantasies

story telling

fancy-free

curtain twitching

yous not me

mind your own shit

business

please

...



















































where’s mozart?

~

where’s mozart? ( a moderately contemporary word wank )




mozart? don't know

sub concerto

conscious solo

twinkle

don't know


magpie smearing?

mathematics

twinkle hiding

try the

attic


what time's bedtime?

face in basin

death? he faked it

flute stuff

mason


know don't - hut-based

where art? twinkle

new stuff

pipelines

hope so

wishful
