Glimpse Caught
Backside,
Z-framed
Larder door
Right angled
Very steep
Leaning still
With brass coat
Hook intact
After sixty years
Provides support to
Green Wheelbarrow
Propped chassis out
Sunbeam ignites
Spiders golden strand.

Duty Free Ethnomethodology
Have another cigarette and list
the day’s duties and responsibilities to avoid at no cost:
Clean galley, swab docks,
cider shop, set books,
PayPal, Danny,
sun music,
read’n’ write…
Eat more fish!
Tomotatoes,
Sods’n’oodles,
Salmon & cumbersome sandwiches,
Peruvian mud cordial…
Phew!
So much to do;
Prevaricate too.

St. Lubbock’s Day
Gutless brutes may go without impedance
To futile profit. So, off you trot, we do
not need your twisted fraud.
Today is St. Lubbock’s. You who idle and do
fuck all, will smiles in their dreams and sleep deep
enjoy and praise the name of Lubbock.
Should active fools disturb your sweet slumber,
show them your scars and mumble:
‘Lummock Lubbock will never pass without
us heroes steadfast on our arses!
We doss, we gladly doss, we idle buggers.
And they that doss too, shall be my Goodfellows;
whether good or bad. Today will ease their conscience.
And those Joxers who must work will wish
they were not. And shrink when they think on the
futility of all endeavour.

Flight Path
Stumble on surf rockery.
Pigeons bedding down
After side-tracked flight:
Stacks over Staines,
Larks stuck in Gatwick,
Murderous crows soon
Gather in Luton;
Anger Roger Scruton –
Better get a move on.

Signs of Life
Twenty two (and more) pigeon posts phase your
eyes.
Cold tea and chocolate Hobnobs of the night
Adorn the paper strewn workstation
Grab an eyesore shower and recommence
The stringent pursuit of sublimation:
Prospecting for diamonds in the Shite.

Angelo Dundee
You leapt
They wept
Crocodile tears
From coiffed ears
A ball of twine
Unravels
Soft gravels
Foreign travels

The Grail Hunt
New early
half-four
downpour.
On Chalice Hill
Four Anoraks
Coverer huddle:
Avebury better
Inclement weather
Three pilgrims fall
Two blue, one black
All Pilgrims struggle
When heading back
To Inn Asylum.
Uplifted
From the road
The Rifleman’s
With open arms
Rustle up
Wet Sanctuary.

Carnage
Lunch (less) time;
fry big spuds,
heat up beans,
eat cold chicken,
drink green cider,
then withdraw,
hid upstairs,
day go dream,
play pinball…
football results in
Tea (less) time
so to nightfall
and beyond!

Jesus Swept Up
It is a Saturday,
another one,
sleep walking
Sarin stiffs,
trousers ankled dead,
snuff one,
get one free,
modern day
humanity

Complex On
Go and do the copy
now the kettle’s boiled.
Face the facts.
Dossers made
not born.
Only child,
spoilt brat,
get fat
and sad.
What about?
My lot.
Sorry, mate!
Sorry state!
Too late never.
Don’t be clever.
Know your place.
Eat your face
When peckish.
Sliming rhyme
Closing time
