Florin
What’s the time on Dandelion?
Burning, yearning gravy waftings.
Wild Cries of joyful carwashers.
Five dimensioned rosehip cushes.
Who painted the lawn day-glow emerald?
A sporran in the night, a ptarmigan at dawn.
A creative with a sloppy bucket.
A mandarin blood orange.

Roomination
Boiled egg struggles,
succumbs to
wrecking spoon.
Starlings rush
from yolk.
World without bend.
Amen

Few Steps

Four:
Real good sun out there.
No showers yet: no wind.
Loud Friday school’s out.
Will I? Won’t I
Have a cheroot: think about it.
Yeah, cheroot’s a good idea.
First, get out of this walnut trick.
A hard nut to crack from within
Let alone without.

Ellis Island
His wife,
his daughter
On the game.
Flooded delta:
Monsoon rain.
Eye catches Ad:
‘Give us your whores,
Your puddled masses’
Should have gone to
Evening classes.

Sea Gherkin Fugue
…floorsucker churns, provokes
gaspings and breathings
safe depthiness is spored
making me splutter
like a pudgy, tetchy baby.
This grief hugs me hollow.
fig lungs implode:
Lites
Bladderwrack
& oyster beards
strangle raddled eyes
Blasted by terror
we stare in mirrors
for escape not reflection.
Look there only when
lamp posts resemble fate.

That Schinken Feeling
Eggs boil not poached fore a changeling
& anna bun dance ov culd sweetmeat carved craythur combobulatio ob pink chicken squirrel, Black Forest Gurty Torso & Tyrolean yodellin’ hamstrings, incomplete minus granary seed thatched toast to hourmaker: Der Mood Molecule
Make me happy. it smiles
today again, s(un breaks through grey gloom.
Limbs visibly loosen- Eeks & Yipes
On the evergreen awks
Of Bar Baloney.
By Gum! Real gone quince ate duvet. The chancery of that!
Must go.
Elephant stick pot in the offing (door knock echoes in mosaic hall)
Once in a lunchtime (talking heads poke noses through letterbox flaps?)
Bargain Hunts a freebie. Michaels on the Micky-Takers. Quakers on the Rum
‘Wing it nut my bast advice. Hise up in the cistern.’

Elysian Folds
‘Do-dah-do-dah-dada-dray:
Roll up, roll up!’
Lamp blacked,
eyeless equine figurine
On top of
odd Algarve shell cluster,
Rococo Chanel
Majolica,
Mickey Finns
Depictions:
…puce nouveau water, juice of absinthe,
oil slick oil, ugly carved frame, smoothly rugged
turned, crude carved canopy, gold leaf burnished,
house well-furnished, arsenic green crafted…
We
cut it up for toothpicks
and firewood.
Sent it up in smoke.
From the diaspora fug something comes.
A startled hobby horse made of old, iron bikes
painted frilly and

Sockless in Gaza
Her feeble
Patience
exhausted if
Glenn Ulf & the Moon Brethren
who tampered with
the Relic
Sock.
~
Dismayed
but unruffled
went she
stepping
gingerly
~
on skin
& snow
flakes,
& found
oxygen
consoles
her soul
cruet of heaven,
crooning grace
‘…need me till I want no more.’
Bliss
after Evensong
she
reposed
immersed in
quilted peachy luxus
idly flicking through
‘Lego, Fretwork,
and
Micky Mouse Ballrooms’
