A Half-way

mouse

In Hollowly

House

Sat:

 

Watch Alibis

of flirty Mizzle;

Swizzle-sticks tink;

Mosaic Rosebuds giggle

Tipsies Turvied

 

Canope down

In

Crumbled daze

Hurry

Get it now!

 

Fetch Scattered

morsels back

Behind these

cobwebbed

gumboots.

Should shower: won’t.

Cherooted to the Spot.

How does your face fit?

A Harrowing Tale

Shirt Story:

 

Lifted.

Collared,

cuffed,

ironed:

well and truly

 

Tucked.

Zing!

T-time

 

Sing

Feel perky,

bright, clear day:

stronger, lithesome, fecund.

the fates allow episodes of respite

from drizzle and dross. Use them well, or not.

Breakfast with Balzac

At Ate Ten time for

Clogs and warm oats;

Thoughts of

wizened scrotes:

antidotes.

 

Duds Army withdraws

Rubbery from the Shrubbery:

Go prune a tune at twilight.

Spoon to Dessert Island dusks.

Contemplate Three banished tusks.

 

At ate fifty time for

Dogs and warm coats

Dreams of

Prison notes:

Ice cream floats

Fairly

fizzing about the ether,

fizzing like a googly,

or Mugli’s eighteen herbs

with verbs

Juvenal

chagall-juggler

 

Weasel words spill out the chine

Mickey-taking sophists whisper

Sour nothings in the ear.

When water walks and sunshine showers

Blossom on sad earth

The chastised winter will concede

Ground to spring hastening

Blue dismembered times of mirth

Normality

scrapbook

 

Windblown half-moon running

chickens chased by scattered twigs,

flyblown choc bar wrappers dervish,

two taciturn Masai, a large yellow balloon,

Bladerunner and a pride of moles: rural quiet is resumed.
