Ten…Eleven…Twelve.
Prime Minister’s Question Time
Who killed Cock Robin?
My dad’s deader than your dad.
Where have all the flowers gone?
Never in the field of human debris
Will the right honourable mental case…
You put your left leg
In your left leg out in out
Shake it all about
That’s what it’s all about – Oi!
Coming upon nine.
Something’s happening round here
Burning onions, tincture of molasses,
burning ground, quicklime pits,
call withdrawn enabled,
false razor wire eyelash,
brunette Lillibulero,
crazy gown drape flourish,
staircase winding
round and round
like a teddy
bear hug
Battle of Britain
When hurricanes spitfire
The first of the few
shoplifting Woolworth’s blind
no security cameras
in the seventies
~
Hercules and Apollo eleven
Led me into a life
Of Saturday morning crime
With twenty two pence change
Just enough for glue
A Wimpy Bender
C?
C what?
You left it there
Did I,
can’t remember
here look –
C!
Dog keen to bursting
Movement yields results
Night gives way to day
Outside it is unraining non stop.
Grabbed about five for Lethe.
Dreams go west with light.
Stop reading everything straight
away with a view to a kill;
always at fives & sevens.
There are other numbers.
Bangers in th’oven
Eleven o’clock pronto.
Football crowd chants:
‘He’ll shoot, he’ll score, he’ll eat your
Labrador, bloke next door, bloke next door.’

Sausage sandwich assembled
fearlessly sampled.
Zingy tabasco gobsmack.
Vogeltop bowerbirds strut their stuff.
Lovenest blueprints scrutinised.

Unique seduction points include:
iridescent spiders,
chocolate slugs, ant crispies,
seven flugelhorns,
zinc embossed en suite
~
Chamber Music hall;
silent moviedrome quintet;
playing incidentally framing caption
awestruck terpsichordal disbelief.
An Enlightened harpsichord.

Greasepaint mascara yard brush.
After birth oven nation.
Cod fish sauce soused
In Tin foil enveloped
Satisfaction guaranteed.
Adidas feat
Primeval slime
Porcupine elvers saucepan fiend
Attica Smirnov gob
Marzipan slivers preen
Adidas counterfeit design
Nectar sand clumpish sills
Jezusalem quilted scrim
Figfingle’s plenum crescent hand
Consider unseemly hues
Bric-a-brac
Evening news

Recall it nine eleven
Rumpelstiltskin
Twice exploded
~
My lord’s house has many
Vestibules
Full of fools
~
When I see free
Undulant sea
I am beside
Myself with glee
Sombre Parliament
Death debate lunchtime
Sepulchral viewing
Cremated steak-kidney pie
Charcoal chips-Sati salad
Black coffin, ugly fruit
Gorgonzola cigarette
washed down with
Bromton Cocktails
Grimbeau
