we built this poem … ( … meop siht tliub ew )

…

we built this poem
with the cheapskate ink

from a thousand
poundland pens

written by chimps
drinking p.g tips

in the jungles of the midlands
with a gibbon editor

we built this poem
with a million paper planes

& drops upon the panes
as it often rains

rhymes from behind
the anus of the sofa

candle wax & zinc
plus the kitchenette’s sink

when in rome – i toga
with a pointy nose

shadow ban this wrongthink
send the soy boys round

this is bracken english
normalzzz is an android

mettle melting ice
& a then reprise

we built this poem
from the scribbles of the daft

lost in uncle nature’s
hayloft

dance if y’know
the scatters of the flow

no refunds
serves y’ right f’ reading

spring echo shit ( tihs ohce gnirps )

…

winter’s a possum

or a corpus callosum

yonder is blossom

yet i yeti ( itey i tey )

novelty slippers
from a crypto gift shop
plod the snow fields home

as the normalzzz snore ( erons zzzlamron eht sa )

…

up before the dawn

& before rob halford

      pissing on the lawn

      as a blackbird stirs

scribbles in the head

by the blanks of the river

      barking with the snarks

      on a park’s seesaw

when the then is zen

yet an impish ape

      as the normalzzz snore

      for software updates

larking in the dark

in the parliament of owls

      sipping milky tea

      rosy like the clover

up before the cockerels

cock-a-doodle doo

      shepherds spot the leopards

      as the cowherds moo

down in the dingles

squawking on the moors

      in between the doggers

      & the early morning joggers

…

slurposis ( sisopruls )

…

cracking up like shells

come the morning’s shattered eggs

sucked by the sky’s straw
