Restraint
Candle on, rain shrewd,
meat pie and two veg,
suppress urge to chew,

Winzerschla(R)fenziet…(proLonged)
(Ger) splat! punk severn zum eleven
(neiLs BoRe)…& so on & so forth all long legrooM
Punctuated sous: bouts of mictuRition, coffee de foi’ graze
atom puff & gripe water, sucks on sparse menthol vape, meandering
through cruel channel & guides in search of?
Something beyond my control—I am not
Who I was & am what I am·(?)
Winzerschlafenziet they call it sometimes
In obscurantist circles:
Crimson sheets barely tell untruth
blue tip of the icebreaker snides
Crashing through pack mice whinging
& all night teleshopping seeing the sea breaking up…

Most Peculiar Twelvemonth
Barney wags its tail
Immediately aware
Good dog got bad name
Chance of snowfall further south
Undercarriage dandruff fleets
Breezily past window
Blowin all away
In the windy wind
The Mork & Mindy wind
Most peculiar twelvemonth

Churching the Fish
It’s quarter past four…
The last machine is
Nearly done spinning
‘Beware of the hums’
The Ice-cream man Comet
Some shit by Mozart
The day’s getting grey
A white cabbage patch
Butterfly avoids
An insistent barrage
‘The hums are dumb, son’

Parched Earth Policy
Midday at the oasis
Watched civilisation end
No milk came today
Eleven o’clock onslaught
Autonomous movement
Of the non-living
Equestrian statuettes
Prance macabre pirouettes
Strung out on redeye
Monday teatime debacle
Pollutes dusk’s tranquility
High time for a shower
Contribute to drought

Glee!
Bravado, bravura, gusto, pesto, Monte Bisto…
Playthings of the Western World
Cocky. That’s the word—
Cocky.
Panache & aplomb
I grant you, rarely palatable
in very small doses.
~
Turn off, drop in, chill out…
Clive James back on the acid
Tongue-lashing vitriol
Not a pretty sight!
I’m late, I’m late; for
a very important date
sea change in self-esteemery
clinging onto flimsy scenery.
~
Sprinkle of
nacreous sky soot,
scant exotic powdering,
brisk flurry of snow
more like dusting or sprinkle
alpine dandruff—
air pollution probably
(thine first exchange of the day—
four hours just being in time,
pottering, sitting, staring,
listening, scribbling, smoking,
stretching, worrying, sighing
catching myself on
Doing me incidentals
mindful after the fashion—
boring ‘ere innit?
What you got?
Coffee
&?
Home entertainments
To pass away
Spend time with
Total abandon…
Preoccupation:
Snow, Snow, Snow…
Silhouette lighthouse strobes
Quick, quick slow flashes
Edward Schismhands
Working double quick, quick slow
The Sabre Dance delivers me
Into lofty ruminations
Shaggy dog stories
Fake Jews, Sheiks & Soundbites
Is you fit for public consumption? Yes
Would you pay to read it? No
So why mention it?
Kills time I suppose
Inbetween pressing engagements
With banality, frippery, frivolity
Vive la Brac-a-Bric!

Brunchium
Midday
Starving. Neck
aches bad despite analgesics, just Poll this morning.
Did crap.
In a heavy head. Read a chunk
of nodule, looked things up.
Caecuban triumph plonk!
Salian piss up.
Forked tongued
double Dutch caps Cleo’s aspic act. Horace Norris changes trains of thought.
After eggs and passing clouds drowsy.

Blighted Hubris
Clear blue skies fuse hues
Crimson fuchsia radiates
lime yellow forsythia
scintillates sun gilded shrubs
wet mercurial paths comfort
shrinking troubled puddles
summer’s best laid plans
love apples cast asunder
fast forgiven learned blunder
