Is there anybody In?
no minister
came out of the bunker
to co-operate
in the witness protection
programme
silverfish fled for the coast
mendacity stalks the land
Has Britain left Britain?

Whoops!
Slept all afternoon
Now comes the shoutings
20.00 hours inspires
Narratives of loss
~
Stood before cracked eighties
mirrors preening rich frantic
Romantic yuppies
Cuntstruck Sloane Etonians
wank over Rachels promised
reward for boorish antics
~
thin veneered vanity sniffs
someother shaven haven:
in short- a demagogue was born
~
on the composter
immodest cabbage emits
flatulence carried stillborn
on a brassica breeze
~
& so
with hairbrush held proud
in bumptious trembling hand
Boaty McBoat-Race says:
~
‘Christ! My God what
have I done this time
to my immoderate forelock?
keep buggering on
~
Rehearsed sprout freely odd
consequences & renovate
notions of faux blonde order
The spectacle eats itself

Suddenly Last Summer

Like the Bugler said:
‘In this crazy mixed up world
you are only as
good as
your last post.’

Hero
Scavenged ham & chicken rolls,
turned up the heat,
mocked snide indifference,
‘even when you’re in you’re out
even when you’re out you’re in—
see how the fancy takes you’

Where have all the donuts gone?
Last train to San Fernando
End of the world as we knew it
This will be the last donut
Get yer ass back to Eurasia
Rigging in the rigged world
~
Love is the Logo
Does eat oats and doves eat oats
& little lambs eat ivy…

Play for Today
Sit down & pull up a fence…
Okay—rain check Day
Two day break from all of it
(Football, Brexit, gardening…)
~
Question!
(Serious question eyebrow)
Yeah
(assumes if I must face
clears throat & utters)
Where is all this going to?
~
Shit! I though as much
And…
I dunno
~
Light another cigarette
Pause
(one last wish before the plunge)
~
Hunger?
For what?
snap quick–gobsmack
~
Think fast blurt it out
No rashers – Danish
Diversionary tactics
~
Just leave me alone
Long pause – dead air waves
O My God!
~
O My Giddy Aunt
Things can never be the same again
Not even the weather?
~
No – Not even the weather
Shit!
Time passes
Time slowly passes
Can I go now?
Sit down – have a donut
~
But I…
Sit down – have a friggin’ donut!
Thanks

Fish Tank
Pride comes ashore a goldfish
surfeit worse than debt
unconditional regard
watch the gangsters
recurring nightmares:
boot crushing face in slowmo
long pig-roasting on red spit
buried up to neck
molasses shampoo
carnivorous ants…
the usual stuff he told me
turned out a bunch of crap
just another emotional
wreck shivering in
Davy Jones’ Locker
Not fishing you out this time
Swallowed your own bait, did you?
Hook line & sinker

Stuff & Nonsense
scent found in Chanel
no man is an inlander
continent cut off by mob
all bereft of brain
we must love eachother or die

Un-everything done
Dusted with insouciance
Hedge-clippings & twiglets
Inkstained balustrade
Prehistoric flint chippings
Ornithologists various
Different shapes and sizes
Of Eggy Homuculi
Adorn the Lawns of Limbo
