Poem

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

i love you saint swithun

i love you saint swithun

you're nothing like the other saints



i love you saint swithun

it's different this time



i love you saint swithun

it's not gay 'cause you've been canonized



i love you saint swithun

& i'm glad that you're mine

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)

allium ursinum & thereabouts

it's an overcast sunday

let's afternoon stroll

along the flat of the valley

'neath the dales as they roll

by the banks of the river

where the wild garlic grows

suitably level

but a delight for the nose

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

...

many a many a

makes a muddle

fuddles - quibbles 

troubles - riddles

charity shop

man-mannequin

a penny

 for your thoughts

or failing that

i'll buy some geriatric cords

in your store

all for a good cause

everyday’s only a blank page if you dismiss the invisible ink

everyday's

only a blank page

if you dismiss

the invisible ink

the scribblings

of yesterdays

disguised

quite indistinct





the meanderings

of previously

the potterings

of yore

yes everyday's

only a blank page

if you manage to ignore

what's been written before

...
