circles in the burbles  (  a  p o e m  &  m e o p  a  )




...

circles in the burbles

knuckle dust & buster

swans-a-song a linger

fingers in the butter


fingers in the butter

limber spring & squinter

sing a dawn o' walrus

tortoise in the sprinter


tortoise in the sprinter

suckle sun & teeter

riddles spin the piddles

scribbles in the aether


scribbles in the aether

bubble burst & bursar

pincers pip the apples

mammals in the murmur


mammals in the murmur

natterjacks & natter

turtles tooting scooters

surplus in the adders


surplus in the adders

xanadu & looters

higher pi the vocals

kippers in the suitors


kippers in the suitors

rosaries & oval

lemon teas the curdles

twinkles in the tonal


twinkles in the tonal

stutter, slur & hurdles

gurgles in the gerbils

circles in the burbles

a shite poem

a shite poem  (  b u t  b o n u s  p o i n t s  f o r  h o n e s t y  )



in the foam of evensong

as bedfordshire is brawling

petrichor is herring

& the plover's toe is mauve


silage is a slithering

as slippers in the stomach

swans upon a turnip

as badger fucks a fox


lemon trees are purring

as the apple in the castle

blobs within the bucket

as a gibbon shats a log


flume - i hear you pewter

from the london planetarium

sneeze - i cheese the big nose

of the lost sphinx

of antartica

with socks upstream

with socks upstream  (  a  p o e t r y  f o r  s u n d a y  )





with socks upstream i songly glow

as rubble breams the swanly flow

& lemon thymes the yellow toe

in speckled threes as hedgerows crow


bee wand the weir eye knotly churn

as beavers burn the clockly turn

& sward back spears the detour gurn

in georgian slacks as seesaws urn


a dove the banks eye cootly shoe

as tudors snmock the newtly hue

& millers till the roses strew

in pits of shit as noses spew


a faced the ebb eye stamply staff

as saxons quack the sandy path

as ripples lick the horsemen graph

in moors of hen as norsemen tax


in glue the glassed eye fuddly melt

as fishers king the bubbly celt

& romans road the blindly pelt

in leather belts as windy melts


of dominoes eye greenly mould

as serpents spin the genie's wold

& adders smash the atoms cold

for second suns - & saturn's gold

( a u t h o r  n o d e s  )

based on a dream

walking upstream

by the banks of me local

river

& time travelling

at the same time

it was a bit like

jung's dream house

but outdoors

so better - more ducks for a start

cheers for reading

dnuoranrut a  (  a  p o e m  )




puddles peck a grey day

ruddle pebble shoe

muddle, mud & waylay

sunk is in the shrew


stutter stubs a nu-moon

butter flutter snow

early stirs & too spoon

flow is in the crow


squinter sings a tail sting

wizard blizzard fly

blither, mitts & pale skin

shite is in the sky


piddle sleets a blank sheet

scribble swivel chairs

river, rat & - taxi

spring is in the hare
