let’s shun cardigans

let's shun cardigans

but still pen poetry

then it's like diving

without the bit where you breathe

into the depths of madness

insanity's black vastness

or if that's too much too soon

then why not roll-up your sleeves

?

elcric lluf

on a clear day i can see

cheeky faceless he

beyond the horizon

but never the front instead





as from the tips of hilltops

yes frequently i will spot

conditions permitting

it's the back of my head

upon awakening ken enning

upon awakening

ken enning

'come on kenneth, get up'




upon awakening

ken enning

he didn't like that much




upon awakening

ken enning

he punched me with a low blow 




upon awakening

ken enning

so i smothered him to death with his own pillow

-oh no




r.i.p

ken enning

the end

(ing)

easter sunday is here

no tinsle

snow

or mistletoe

but sometimes these things

get up-muddled

then fuddled





easter sunday is here

it's the aftermath of christ's prank

the annual 

crucified scamp

with an empty tomb

for all there to see

& a chocolate partridge

in a pear tree

the truth is stranger





yes the truth

is stranger

 than fiction





as in real-life

black beauty

was a kraken





who terrorised the 7 seas

with tentacles

for centuries





 anna sewell's an equine

wind-up merchant

- that's what actually happened

great literary secrets




yes shakespeare

was a thousand

chimpanzees

on typewriters

bashing letters

fraudulently






until another play emerged 

not that there's a rush

'cause they had bags of time 'n' ink

plus decent monkey-drugs

the thought that counts

there's nowt more ugly

than money

but our world is run

by bankers - the wankers

in the depths of this now

post-land of milk & honey

where you can still read

this poem

for FREE

potentially hazardous

torrential rain

hill fog

may contain

traces of

diphtheria

creaky doors

the common cold

dark days of yore

asbestos

& hazelnuts 

ricin rice cakes

latex gloves

slippery floors

a wonky shelf

then there's always weasels popping

- so watch y'self

...

glove on a branch (a true story)

one happened to chance

upon a glove on a branch

beside a grey

rainy lane

yes it deserved

a second glance

then photo   graph

(cue special dance)

'cause luck's a fickle fuck

but that's a bastard glove on a branch

...

dawn of the bud

on the brink

of the incipient

 the coming

of the budding

on the verge

of the scourge

of that infernal

vernal

it mocks

from the branches

with embryonic

 glances

'fear us now' 

it's telling me

'our sticky bud supremacy'

...
