r ing the rectal bell

      in the dingle’s dell

e dge a border’s line

      salt the seas of brine

s trike the iron plum

      ee the by of gum

t oss another turn

     as the normalzzz burn 

a mble on this track

      anoraks attack

r ock the rolling hills

      ruffle feathered quills

t wist a circle straight

      skating figure eights

s wift in swooping loops

      sing til supper soups

otter osmosis
smoking like a kipper tie
spotting tiger stripes

spotting tiger stripes
waddle when the penguins pen
with frozen pencils

with frozen pencils
we, the weevils weave a wave
sailing gravy boats

sailing gravy boats
but the buttress buttercups
dark snark harpsichords

dark snark harpsichord
harpies in a cable car
cobweb weatherman

cobweb weatherman
cousin in a custard can

      cauliflower cousins

a nagram of begs a scab

      apostles of the bat’s broth

b etter fried than steamed

      brow beating laser brains

b lending men with vegetables

      biblical blithers

a phid magnets

      apophis’s fodder

g reat year harvest cheer

      gargles in the garden

e verything is spanners

      eat your bloody greens

s tep aside & breathe

      sing ’em assunder

prune

prune ( enurp )

…

rhymer of moon
a spoon
a loon

rich in vitamin k

fruit of a tree
in me
a key

like a sprite in the grey

cousin of plums
the sums
of tums’

constipated delay

bustin’ a dam
a can
& bam

shit the timber away

may day not mayday

may day not mayday ( yadyam ton yad yam )

…

pinch another punch
this is not a sinking ship
as the morris dancers skip
rhyme the time of crunch

blurting on the fist
calendars ‘n’ caterwauls
bouncing balls ‘n’ rubber walls
vernal splurges versed

ribbon ’round a pole
seek a greener pagan grail
chase the spin of summer’s tail
prancing as a foal

gibbon on this day
under skins of onion sky
flutter like a butterfly
in the moth of may

gather knotted nuts
hedge along a pasture’s path
with a dog, a sack ‘n’ staff
as the pheasant struts

waxing like a loon
irk the needle – ink a scene
weave the scree of in between
’til the moons of a june

multiversal variations

multiversal variations ( snoitairav lasrevitlum )

…

twinned with seven twins
yet a single child

raised by snakes
& badgers in the wild

spreading buttercups
up all bloody night

mainly sleeping in
whisking wyvern eggs

other kitchenettes
under other suns

belgian bungalows
peking prefabs

blow a different nose
re-invent the anorak

poets run this shit
no one’s heard of poets

purple purrs the earth
as the planet’s puce

or a shade of beige
’til the unicorn wars

fly like hedgehog men
baths in ginger beer

fending off ten ton
earwigs with a spanner
…

flap shat

flap shat ( tahs palf )

…

gloom upon the snooze
globalism’s golden yoke
cattle dance the blues

all is balls ‘n’ war
shivers in y’cotton socks
colder than before

gulp the evening air
hark, the snarls ‘n’ barks of snarks
dark cathedral fare

see the minions weave
tapestries of tragedies
mirrors up a sleeve

parrot ’til y’sick
piping panic’s pantomime
shit another brick

gasp a precious breath
run atop a phantom hill
chase the tail of death
