There's a trick up your sleeve

& a hoax in your coat

there's a ruse in your shoes

subterfuge - shades of goat.





There's a hole in your soul

& request from from below

yes 'bring me the rest'

so mind how you go

monday, early



The bathroom beat the Blackbirds

it started somewhere around 4

waking me from slumber

& sweet dreams

of medieval wars.





Then the bedroom, toilet, living room

they decided to join in

so a song was sung

on the love of ropey puns

yes - everything but the kitchen sings

...

(source unknown)



The streets were alive

with some kind

of something

an intermittent pulse

here then not

nothing - pumping

like a part-time Ley Line

or the lights of passing cars

or a very odd song

off & on

stuff is charged

1st

they started wearing more corduroy

then they wrote

daft ropey poetry

then seeped

into my dreams

then blended 

with my thoughts

- we are 1 single entity

1 name, 1 brain & passport.

king for a day


If I were king for a day

I'd ban all the kings outright

including myself

yes - bring me their heads

 then I'd leg it back to bed

& hide until night

...

a speck in time


I've been trying to spot

that tiny slap-bang gap

between afternoon

& evening.





Hiding

in the middle of the point of equilibrium

a speck in time

 defies God & physics

probably somewhere around 6

Nothing

is 1 of my

favourite subjects.





One's become an expert

of sorts

from a succession

of non-thoughts.





I would should show you the certificates

but they're completely invisible

& very intangible

plus 

I've forgotten where I left them.





Nothing

favourite subjects

new strangery who


You aint from around these here be parts

have you come to steal our donkeys

our carts

& rustle our sheep

then murder us in our sleep

with a musket to the head

or rusty tent peg through the heart

?





As you aint from these vales & hillsides

have you roamed over dales

far & wide

under various aliases

assumed - lies - disguised

to come for our daughters

our tractors

plus wives

?





As you aint local-yokel

it's true

if you were we'd all recognise you

so we'll keep our close eyes

on new strangery who

whilst silently praying

that you're just passing through.





"Go on, fuck off"

...

ample warning


Please do not read the following

as it was written by a nutter

wearing latex gloves

a mere stone's throw

from a factory

made from traces of nuts

under low cloud

which can only shroud

some dark Satanic hate

designed to penetrate your mind

 define your fate

- fuck - shite -

TOO LATE

doctor’s orders


A smallish dose

of chaos

should be taken

everyday;

a tablespoon

of turmoil,

3 teaspoons

 of disarray, 

20mg 

of topsy-turvy,

a rat's nest

in a pockets worth

of tempest

plus half a puddle

of tumultuous muddle

- repeat until completely compos mentis
