‘What you want’s is a kick shit

editor!’

Said Sal

‘What you needs is

A cretinous creditor!’

Sal said as

I listened in silence

‘Love me Daddy, do’

Life’s full of compromises.

We smiled.

 

The Patron Saint of Savages

Derailed Sunday lunch on

Whacko Acapulco juice

Cinnamon sticks

Glum multitudes

Nosey aunties

Hoe are tings on googanbarra?

Hello! Nice to meet me

You too…over and over again

In short, I’m starving

Wrecked & Lazy…

Then

(as god is my judge)

Derelict Cucumberpatch

Appeared in a silver

Killer suit

How could one not swoon?

Tilly asked with oblique reference:

‘Was Ralph Richardson

As thin as that once?’Drunk

Glance sea

sand like time

slipped

through my fingers

tumbling

down chiffon

fifteen golden grains

resting on my

infant toes

Gut Feeling

Sausage, bacon, tomato in a brown bap.

Crucial glider crisis talks underway –

quite a tussle by the sound of it.

Day gone shady grey,

all hangs dangling in the balance.

How to plump?

Pros outweigh cons

and vice versa.

Alternatives to impasse:

half measures, no measures, more measures.

Thorny problem, telling points on both sides.

Sweep floor: time out, pause for thought,

check for rain, wait for a sign, a determinant…

indigestion breeds procrastination

After bells stopped peeling

Grabbed another hour

Picking flowers on the quilt

Listening to religion

Exhaling orthodoxies

Inhaling pungent incense

Stale carcinogenic guff

The scene of the grime

Near a rock in a soft place

Called no fixed abode

Storm in a teacup

 

Chipped enamel

Hairline fractures battered glaze

Otherwise escaped unscathed

Got off lightly close run thing

Hurricane Typhoo subsides

Tropical tempest

Blows itself away
