heads fucked the band  (  a  m u s i c a l  t a i l  )

…

heads fucked the band

& heads got lice

mistresses & shops

but in the bellend

space


shoulders shat the band

then tailed-off into pads

that's that


knees peed the band

then teamed up with them bees

the breast is histamine

& knobbles in the breeze


so toes went solo

& got a job & bar

& thought of songs of yon

then twinkled

as a star

cloudspotting  (  o n e  f o r  t h o s e  n e p h e w i l l i m o l o g i s t s  )

…

cumulus ninjas

nonticulent nozzles

stegosaurus stratus

lenticular inkblots

arcus marmoset

stroke sirrus pareidolia

rain - rain again

& your mum's face

formerly  (  a  p o e t r y  o f  p o e m  )

…

a rogue clump of mud

the mongolian death worm

mozart's second cousin


a mulberry tree

& a tudor commuter

catching a carriage - or two


a lark in the dark

of the dim middle-ages

singing in english plague pits


a plesiosaur

& a black catterpillar

crossing the path

of your ant

( ? )

in mirrorlands  (  m y  o t h e r  p o e m  i s  a  m o u n t a i n  h a r e  )

…

sing a song of cell division

custard cans & campervans

aerial's on television

caliban's in kazakhstan


feather flocks a flockin' vision

ticker tapes & ticket trams

paper trains on plains of fission

bedding spreads in badger-lands


roses row as rivers glisten

adder skies & ladder lands

miners of the coalition

whispers of the midden-hands


muffle in the scuffle-schism

marbles, mars & marching bands

mumble-stuff of contra's diction

sinking swans on singing sands


weavers on an intermission

tapestries & telegrams

ariadne tickles titian

pencils pen in pentagrams


blizzard of the lizards, listen

wizardry & squinterlands

shepherds sleep as lemons glisten

mizzle gleams in mirrorlands
