i’m the beans  (  snaeb eht m’i  )




i'm the beans & pumpkin seeds

ghosts of oats

& broccoli florets


i'm the prunes

the stuff of glue

nuts & dates

& dundee cake


i'm the fibre

top bog dog

khan of the khazis

& you are my log flume


king of the sphincters

the caesar of squeeze


wipe, flush

& wash y' hands

beyond the peas

~

beyond the peas  (  saep eht dnoyeb  )




beneath the glum of fiddle dum

the portents scrawl to kingdom scum

the sun's the star

of trar-luh-lar

as orchards hang & bang's a drum


within the squirms of earthen toss

the tripe of the likes, the writes of doss

the broken bones

the drones of clones

a drip of piss, a pint of dross


upon the song of flaccid rain

& squiggles of the lizard brain

the surface soil

as saucepans boil

a dream unseen - it's beige again


a yawn is born, the squall of squibs

a trickling of tickled ribs

a stickleback

a sack o' cack

the pilfering of pilchard nibs


beyond the peas of tees & hees

& limericks of chortled cheese

the normalz sorts

guffaws & snorts

for weasels with lobotomies


i ode to glow & lick the moon

& dance the ants of pantaloon

a pad, a pen

a scrap & then

the nadgers of a splattered loon

the cider ( blame blake )

the cider ( blame blake )   ( ekalb emalb ) redic eht



cider, cider gurning light

in the porridge of the shite

spot in chortles gland or knee

wood frame my earful syzygy?


spin hot distant cheeks or thighs

gurn the spire of shrine eyes

on hot wings - hare he aspire?

hop the sand, mare sneeze the mire?


& hot shoulder, & hot tart

woods twist the tribunes of pie fart

& when pie fart began to bleat

hot red hand & hot red feet


spot the spanner, spot the rain

in hot skirmish was my brain

hot the anvil, hot bread gasp?

snare tits, smelly beggars clasp!


pen the dark shrew down their ears

& port & lemon with their beers

silly smile his worm to scree

big emu - snake the lamb, snake tree?


cider, cider gurning light

in the porridge of the shite

spot in chortles gland or knee

airframe my earful syzygy

flesh is death

~

flesh is death  ( htaed si hself  )




flesh is death & meat is murmurs

sylpid gristle, screaming burgers

phantom hams, a sausage slaughter

would you eat your son or daughter?


spitting on the coals & smoking

shrieking steam, the imp is roasting

sucking ka - the spark & aether

crucifixions, lambs & easter


gooses groan & witches cackle

puddings from the blood of cattle

massacres for christmas dinner

ducks & under, chickens simmer


black is blue & all is sickness

balls for ghouls - the sky's my witness

flesh is death & meat is murmurs

sylphid gristle, screaming burgers

things to do in june

things to do in june  (  enuj ni od ot sgniht  )



horsing forth in snorts & wheezes

flap with hatchlings, catch the breezes

sing the song of pollen sneezes

of an afternoon


box a frog & swirl in circles

gargle on, the garden gurgles

lavender in bursts of purples

burst y' blue balloon


sleep upon a bed of petals

dodge the nip of stinging nettles

pause for tea & sing with kettles

eat a macaroon


sea the green of grass & hoses

whip the wind of blowing noses

sniff the thorns of warring roses

hum a summer chooon


hymn as nymphs are strumming lyres

spot the leopards, stripe the tigers

snap with dragons, spin with spiders

swift the swish of swoon


splosh the piss of pitter patters

river this & scratch y' nadgers

wash y' hands & dance with badgers

underneath the moon


fist the misting of a morning

chase a snail as day is yawning

prance with ants as thunder's storming

pant in pantaloons


milk the thistles in the thickets

burble birds & chirp with crickets

irk the scourge of sticky wickets

things to do in june

....










































































 

after the splatter

~

after the splatter  (  rettalps eht retfa  )






roses glow & noses roam

rivers run, the oceans groan


badgers dance & rabbits skip

breezes sneeze & branches drip


droplets on a thinking cap

pandas prance & catch the clap


dragons snap as nettles sting

onion spring & kettles sing


pipers pipe as gutters spew

butterflies in scrys of blue


bursts of bird as twitchers twitch

seas of wheat & deep's the ditch


grasses green as apples red

weevils weave within the head


bits of hymns as scribbles ink

summer suns & puddles shrink
