Alimentary, My Dear Wotsit

We are such stuff

As turds are made on,

and our lives are

rounded by a rest room

Cosy Nostril

Two reds yield one dry black,

it did not touch the sides

(according to forensics)

Some Sicilian

Reno, Gino, fuck knows who

has taken up the Piccolo!

(well, scrub my rug!)

a fight for puff till

will surely ensue

resulting in the

death of bother or either.

Sicily is worth fighting for –

Just ask George Patton,

or Corleone,

sometimes Sinatra.

Pal Barney

It’s quarter past three,

just Barney & Me,

the days closed right in,

with the rain and the wind

mistletoe grows

roots in my toes

flowers in air

I’m drinking my friend

To the end

Of a heliotrope

So no sun for my baby

And no sun for the road…

Tropic of Capicorn

Shadow of  the Ibex;

Billy & Nanny Chew Flesh;

Capricorn Lites;

Paddy McGinty’s Chainsaw…

Dontya just love them

Celtic Goat Stories?

Nightfall

Clunk it went when

Night fell

The hobnail in the stairwell

Since my booting accident

I can’t hear night fall

At all

 

Martha & The Umbrellas

Wet caged masquerades

Cattle low as hanging fruit

Ferment in the bog

We have all been here before

It’s Deja-vu again

Mystery repeats itself

First time stealthy

Next time selfie

posted on Facebook

by wholesome lonesome cops

looking for promotion

& insurrection

To record for training vids

Go to Youtube – have a look

A Late Spectator

Smokey, swift grey cloaked

Ghosts flit in ochre twilight

Garish Animal umbrella

Leads cagouled girl child

Safe home round the bend

Fireworks flash far off

On market town slopes

Sleet lights blind shadows

Afflict brief glimpses

Blast!

Midday

& many

minutes

Winzersturm

a’cummin

shut

Up!

Ticking By

Patti Smith drops in –

Sad eyed world wary

Horses Leap

one ear cocked

Back in the day

when we all had hairdo’s

All was do it yourself.

Slipping slipshod rhymes.

The curator swept out the door

hovered on the wind
