floaty ghosts

restless

hauntings

momentum

springtime

a crocus

restless

no focus

cheese rolling

multi-plug

cobwebs

delusions

am i florence nightingale?

maybe

confusion

are you isaac newton?

momentum

& hauntings

late spring

midwinter

potholing is

daunting

from pheasant

to peasant

from pauper

to crown

atishoo atishoo

we all fall down

...

the coffee morning's cancelled

industrial action

bullshit

tumbling

weasel whines

poltergeists

intensity

crumbling

stand back

fumbling

this is not tea

at 3 in the afternoon

challenges

police cars

dear christmas,

dear christmas, by gavin nosedive

~~~

dear christmas,

it's mid-august now

& i've just been out walking

when i saw a fat cow

grazing

so i thought of you

up there in xmas-land

scheming as you do


dear christmas,

it's mid-august here

2 thirdsish of the year

has disappeared

so you'll soon be back

with your evil money traps

your bleak commercial shat

fuck off

you festive twat

( x )

a brief worry about something (or other)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

a brief worry about something (or other) by anthony histamine

~~~



the clouds are at their blackest

is this the end of times?

dark like money

with its skyscrapered shrines

the cows stand defiantly

as bollocks quells the mind

jesus in a nightie

an inevitable decline


the clouds are at their blackest

will voles take control now?

someone's left their iron on

there's panic in the town

i blame the state

the church & the crown

nah wait - it's just rain

now it's pissin' it down

( x )

long-lost uncle ( a muddle )

long-lost uncle ( a muddle ) by john elbows 

~~~




well i've been searching for my long-lost uncle

who disappeared when i was five

as he owes me a fair bit

in the way of unsent gifts

christmas & birthday shit

so i hope he's still alive



i know that i'm too old nowadays for piggybacks

& i recall he had 2 eyes, a mouth & nose

beyond that's lost to mist

but did he once exist?

often the mind plays tricks

yet on this quest it goes
