Barney the Bolt

Jim brings

legal dose,

two bags full,

the dog bolts

the open gate;

found basking,

break dancing

on the rec,

chewing a rhea;

waiting for

a vacant swing,

some spare rib,

to be fetched back

here.

DIY

goya color

 

Crimson Cuprinol,

sand fence,

cure and enjoy.

Rude

Health is

wealth,

all the bells ring

and whistles blow,

Geronimo…!

Vigil

you-small

Fuck me, afternoon choir!

Get out and get at it.

Wait…yes, an

Easternwind.

Just clout on.

Naked:

To the truth exposed!

Catch your death

Outside in that.

Stay in, smoke tabs,

keep warm and safe

from the Garden

Midnights.

Smoker’s Neck

two_faces-299x257

Silence breeds lunchtime.

Tell tale signs:

Blue teeth,

Buboes,

Trombones

fetid Mind-Wort

Hyacynthia…

 

Up in Maine,

we bathe in Clover,

not Butter.

Roadrunner

dancers

Radio Gone,

auto cut-off.

In the Smoke:

Big Matisse

Jazz Gig.

Scissor Sisters

to preside?

Sounds on the Staircase.

Voices without faces.

Cup in the Galley.

Prospect of Coffee

and Perfidy.

 

Compost Heapos

yellowfish

Great Allotments of Albion yield up

sweet pea & radish.

The bearded mates look maddish

and lose well

the first challenge, woody, blemished

offerings get scant consideration from the judge,

old before his time, made over for the telly.

A sex god with a perverse

glint in his eyes

when he says ‘the last thing we want to see

is a drooping sweet pea.’

He knows, you know

Huguenot Vows

Bake

spuds, move rainbow, smote bowels, cower

shower.

Get out of this space: mace.

Downside up

outside handcuffs.

Get out of this space:

face.

Run and run, hurt and hide, get out of this

space:

race.

Tulane, hold back! Bivouac, lamb Ada.

Get out of this space: chase.

Chantilly, paper, shoe. Confiscate your…

Get out of this space:

The Search

Silent

Angelus:

car noise,

rodeo,

stampede!

Five wide virgins

Still nowt doing

Trout Rainbow

Midday blooms

in passing cloud,

Brrghhh.

Turn up heat.

It is

Garlic bread still

under grill.

Cheerful tunes

trill ditties,

twee baroque

flute and warble

while We

observe the fig tree

perspicaciously.

Please Release You

James Orchard Halliwell-Phillipps

Let us cry together and laugh alone,

change is as good as a rest, we all say.

I wish we could come up with something new

from time to time, or just start crying,

go to bed, make an early night of it.

Then I could laugh myself to sleep again.
