there the pastry folk dwell

~~~

there the pastry folk dwell by so far today just tea & look what happens anyway …


under earth's fragile crust

well there is no hell

but the planet is hollow

there the pastry folk dwell


it's a secret society

/ pastry based race

their bodies skin is choux

shortcrust is their head / face


so ignore modern science

with its gobshite shite lies

coz it's more jules verne

meets some pasties & pies


their capital's flanballah

it's a quiche meets citadel

it's breath taking in springtime

there the pastry folk dwell

open-minded by janice match-styx

my mind is open

far & wide

a big shop door

ajar-inclined

so insects swarm in

vermin thrive

there's room for you too

crawl inside

have a little smile & your face smiles too

have a little smile & your face smiles too by bartholomew thud


some bugger put a rusty nail 

in my shoe


the man sat beside me on the tram

whiffs of pooh


but worse things happen on the soaps

so what can you do


( ? )


just have a little smile

& your face smiles too

upon consuming parsnips before the first frost

upon consuming parsnips before the first frost by wendy coping mechanism



upon consuming parsnips

before the first frost

i realised the folly of my ways

& now all hope is lost

they didn't taste as flavoursome

plus to make matters worse

i may well have invoked some yokel wrath

some shunned folk saying curse


shite

treemendous by djwduqgywfq7.~

~~~


they know - they've grown through centuries

all's noted in their logs


they see our age in human years

just as we do to dogs


they're antennae, cousins & shade

they're lungs so we can breathe


plus good things always come in them

treemendous are the trees

treat yourself

~~~

treat yourself by egg fried ricin



you should treat yourself

& clad your shed

prescribe yourself cider

& drill holes in your head


next buy that shell suit

from yon charity shop

they'll breeze back into trend soon

then they'll be worth a lot


you should treat yourself

so grab a twig off a tree

take said little branch home

then call it steve & make it tea


take plenty of rest

as you don't need a rest permit

explore le monde du fromage

treat yourself - yeah

you deserve it

we are collectors

~~~

we are collectors by ndiwjei2ye2y3yy34y



when we collect things

we become collectors

as we build up a collection

of sorts


like blue magazines

or antique trampolines

no pressure

the decision is yours


& then down the line

we can sell this collection

& all the possessions

that we own


but we can still collect dust

one's wits & one's thoughts

as we plan what to collect next

naked & alone

wills by bgyugufrtrvg996.4


where there's a will there's a way

& there was probably a william

who's sadly since died

( having made all the necessary arrangements )
