utter-nutter-butter-couplets  (  stelpuoc-rettub-rettun-rettu  )

…







cobbles on a lane

birds within the brain


squirms within a can

scrambles in a pan


eggs within the head

licks of pencil lead


sing the songs of swan

apple crumble on


passing pigs in flight

biting bugs at night


morning yawns & wake

monsters in a lake


swishes in the sea

river's mist-err-eee


gravel in a shoe

straddles me & you

...

deep sleep beats

~

deep sleep beats  (  staeb peels peed  )

…






deep sleep beats

inner-e.p's


b-sides & a-sides

playing inside


hypnos's hymns

moonbeam melotron


prog-folk techno

d.j hecate


bright white night

cats on the alleyways


shanties on high cees

bird brain's waves


choirs on a wire

flee from the greenery


quiver me quavers

floating with ghosts


stars on guitar

nut on flute


cerebral cathedrals

selene's sweet synth


chandra's brass blasts

slumber on drums


deep sleep beats

super acoustic

...









( author notes )

nut is pronounced "noot" here

coz she's egyptian

& not an almond

crosses on a scatter graph

cats & dogs are catching fleas

tangles on a brambled path


lemon curd on ashen toast

leaves upon the branching trees

letters on a pillared post


birds within the woodland sing

buttercups are greening leas

scrawl as dawn is chorusing


plaster on a caterwaul

pubic lice in nunneries

fire flies & rumours sprawl


sniffles on the evening snooze

syphilis in monasteries

cotton clouds & oozing blues


pissing suns & shafts of rain

mumbles on a bumbled breeze

sound around & back again

...

 

shoe buffoonery

~

shoe buffoonery  (  yernooffub eohs  )

…






pen then, vegetables

slapstick pebble-dashed

brown cow mutiny


mayfly hovercraft

catkin cavalcade

night sky jubilee


wanton wanderings

soup spoon spider-eyed

think tank eulogy


top drawer vortices

pisspot paper planes

deep sleep truancy


bedspread butterfly

lo-fi lozenges

shoe buffoonery


bend-game comatose

scratch that comet tail

full moon loonery

...

wen gnihtemos  (  something new  )

…






hedgehogs above us

echoes come home


silence in sound

birds underground


peas in this village

weasels with spines


wells in a wish

shoelaces tied


pikes on a bike

pavements in cracks


truth on the snooze

yellows in blues


butterfly nights

moths at noon


fascinating stoners

christmas in june

...

 

catflap

~

catflap  (  palftac  )

…







cobwebs, webbed foot, star map, startled starlings

plugholes, old gold, seashore, silver darlings

seesaw, sore eyes, inkling, information

meltdown, brown cow, cloudburst, literation

catflap, deep blue, bee's knees, betty swollocks

screw job, lockjaw, back door, nutter bollocks

penfriend, payday, hi-fi, feather dusters

kumquat, mayfly, piss-pot, motherfuckers

...

 

magic green receptacle

magic green receptacle  (  elcatpecer neerg cigam  )

…






pepper pickled prosody

lotteries of broccoli


parps the parsnip's practicum

sings in thinking capsicum


cauliflower madrigal

brussel sprout sabbatical


lamb the lettuce lexicon

cress the mustard's echelon


plant the prance of terpsichore

grocers smoke the herbivore


spinach spins in languages

clatterings of cabbages


magic green receptacle

every bean's a vegetable


hark, the garden's christening

lark as stars are glistening
