poppycock is popping weasels

goldilocks is nicking porridge

stealing sheep as bolting quarells

chase the steeples - churches churning


chase the steeples - churches churning

maids a milking in the valleys

green's the preen of muffled feathers

brown's the sound of village shitters


brown's the sound of village shitters

yarn's a barn but sing's a jitty

amber sees as trees & rivers

flap's the bats of ruffled rafters


flap's the bats of ruffled rafters

flop in socks with poppy crystals

spore the yore & snore with eagles

poppycock is popping weasels

of dogs & dinners

of dogs & dinners  (  a  p o e m  &  t h a t  )

…



when the sun sinks down the sofa

& the fisher crowns a cobra

signets seven sing a coda

poets ponce on spring in winters


then the moon is cack & crackers

kangaroos & badger knackers

swishes swooshing as the clappers

rubber balls & squall that glimmers


as the minstrels mince of mittens

ribbons, rum & britain's bitterns

scuffles, scuff & fluff of kittens

fiddles, fleas & fish in rivers


bend the breeze in which we flutter

spin in ink as pencils sputter

scribble is a friend & fucker

sing the song of dogs & dinners

backend ( ish )  (  p o e t i c a l  m o n k e y  t e n n i s  )

…



in the trudge of trodden apples

orchard forth with mud beneath us

sodden squawking of a morning

dead ahead & squash a squish


breezes sneeze as leaves are feathers

spiders cider, spores are roaring

petals settle - clutch y'heather

grab a rake & shake a whish


sing the song of snails & coffins

hogget with the dogs & roses

crows of maidens - ghosts of goblins

swirl in circles - bosh a bish


phantoms yawning - spines a chiming

down y'ale & chase a fairy

roundabouts & face the hairy

bastard bear of - backend ( ish )
