vane bonfires fade
spontaneous implosive
embers smoulder on

Curious Doormouse
Seedtime
equine ox
astronomical lingo
wrong sort of sleep
one of them funny old days
doing all the right things wrong
wrong sort of light to boot
mutters of great importance
scent whiff of torched digestives…
yawning bore arduous grey trudge
through south faced field first thing foraging
for breakfast, pretty slim pickings- tea tree dewdrops
bathe hands & start again humming nice day for a white webbing

An Inspector Calls
As day commences
question heavy
underwhelming poxy
leaden gundog sky
just turned eleven
Steak Pie & Chips
in to burn
tad wonky
Morning
lies in tatters
Anti-personnel weapon
Pops
in for a

Working Class Earhole
Vanguard foot slides down
exhaling hulk slips groaning
sighs under eiderdown
waves goodnight cruel world
helpless cries for help
hyena laugh & banshee howl
echo through stark night
lorry and quarry breaking
observant silence
drag chains crochet light

Most Wanton
Georgie Gargoyle sneers
leers drools pours derision
raining scorn upon
the weak, sick, old, cold,
&
all the living and the dead
cruel salacious scabious
snooty pogrommer

Claptrap
‘we are where we at’
peculiar thing to say
do not understand…
moving on, going
forward, rushing like
gas spiral around black hole

Unction
Apply
to affected area
rub well in
when symptoms persist
insult your practitioner

Aisling
Things chug-chug-chugging
along again once
train lines cleared
of oppressive leaves
other obstacles malinger:
sheer mediocrity
complacent shyness
myriad telegraph poles
