Poem

when everyone’s name is dave

 

somewhere soonish in our imminent future

when everyone's name is dave

in a way there will be no daveisions

as in a way

we'll all be the same


yet the rich will still be sickeningly rich

& the poor still far too poor

plus the question 'who's the greatest dave?'

will inevitably start

another bloody dave-war

gem in i


not that bothered

but worried about everything

& into everything

yet easily distrac-

did you hear that?

they've not come to get me

i best hide behind the settee

just to be safe like

( sound as a pound )

mid-morning turned a shade of vague


mid-morning turned

a shade of vague

from fluorescent directions

to the ways of beige

then magnolia

the modern grey

& beyond this

there's not much

that anyone can say

the marzipan man


deep in yon forest

dwells the marzipan man

formed from sweet nutty witchcraft

stay away if you can

he has a marzipan body

marzipan face & hair

'cause he's the marzipan man

beware - beware - beware

the truth about wombles


underground - overground

wombling free

the wombles of wimbledon

hybrids they be

part badger - part binman

one third something evil

an escaped experiment

they exclusively eat people

inverse urban mithras

you're an inverse

urban mithras

in a retail park car park

at night

bringing the darkness

back into light

note to shelf


note to shelf

aye i put you up myself

with the skill of a donkey

& that's why you're wonky


note to shelf

please don't be insulted

as angles breathe life

but you should have been consulted

( i'm sorry )

( space is growing )



shat that space

is well beyond

our understanding


each time i peep up

from the blinds

it's still expanding


into what?

shite knows

we haven't a clue


but on a good night

the mind expands too

(x)

another wonder

where would we be without wonder

?

( a wonder )

those wonders define who we are


oh where would we be without wonder

?

( another wonder )

there's no way we'd wander that far

apples ‘n’ pears

as long as there's apples

well there's always pears

they're kinder than apples

to be fair

them pears care

they lack the sheer arrogance

all apples possess

so far from being inferior

yes pears are the best

...










( author nodes; but strawberries are still better than raspberries

- let's not get carried away ... )




{ the end }
