old scientists


Old school

science shit

text-books

you were far too dated then

with graphs 'n' graphics

of a former century

& black & white photographs

glum fuzzy hairy men.





Plus women

with the thickest glasses

in Christendom

it's amazing how we have a population now

I hated you

'cause you weren't English or History

but somehow I still keep you

-which is a fucking mystery

...







definitely a brewing

The bin by the bus stop

wasn't bursting to the brim

& the bakers had a symbolic queue

of 2,

the birds they sang of Spring

then other chirpy feathery things

as last night's rainfall in the river

obeyed the valley - flowed on through.





A Libran nearly sneezed

as the chimneys smoked freely

unblocked by stuck burglars

or dark Satanic soot,

this is conspiracy

the calm before the treachery

the seeds of deceit

shit, something's afoot
