the modern age ate my hamster … ( some contemporary shite )

…




the modern age ate my hamster

so consumed with whats & whys - the like

i climbed



up mam tor dressed as an onion

in the hope that there some answers

i would find



as tears drip dropped on my costume

i cursed the needless hamster greed

of time



then remembered that there was no hamster

'twas a figment

of my modern

wanker mind



( ? )

lost sheds

pantomime horse

bridles

magnetic spin

shapetastic ( a contemporary easter card list )

makes shapes create your own shapescape

isosceles

great shapes of ape

inscribe on stone like petroglyphs

or wave a sound

a round of drinks

speak hexagon plus spherical

dimensional

rectangular - squared pegs in holes

( please don't spiral )

( out of control )

weasels keep on popping

~

weasels keep on popping

…


yes weasels keep on popping

exploding out-the-blue

yet no one really knows why

for some reason they do


we've tried blaming the weather

each other & ourselves

acts of god or 'terrorists'

but that shit never helps


the science folk are puzzled

they'd answer if they could

the governments says keep calm

but stay away from woods


one blast could rip an ear-off

or kill you if you're old

thems old trad rhymes - they know why

pop goes the weasel

( that's us told )

hazel

hazel ( a short burst )

…



your eyes are almonds & they glow

quite green as the pistachio

your sneezes too they follow through

a-a-cashew - cashew? bless you


your walls are loons as raving peas

your home too has mad cow disease

all it adds up - no ifs or buts

my dear hazel

you're fucking nuts

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

late autumn gulps

~

late autumn gulps by sixteen lines of seasonal verse-shat

…




late autumn gulps

a precious breath

surveys its damage

what is left


the trails of gales

yet lovers swoon

but hedgehogs sleep

as winter looms


there's mistletoe

there to be seen

summer is hiding

in the green


of holly leaves

& ivy too

as scrumpy ferments

( that'll do )
