Moonfinch (a tearDrop imPlodes…)

sumer goldfinch soars—
Moon suckles blood red orange
safe soft sofa snores
try hard to recall a smile
once glimpsed remains betwixt

On the Shieling Lawn

End of Palm Mystery
Case closed post infinitum
Time for me hols
~
Refuel the battered keys
‘BFN—TTFN’: o F f
Formalities observed:
~
Put out blazing cat
Left in empty milk bottles
Turned up thermostat
~
Opened all windows and doors
Counter-counter espionage
Drones disguised as flies
~
Circumnavigate
Naff squiggly lampshade
Armed up to the teeth
~
And don’t forget
leave a smoking cadaver
on the shieling lawn

comeuppances (Figary Hill)

Episodic enema soils domino all-knowing eyeliner, smelling rosy-posies, wrinkling up blue barley blaze, singing snarl laments, waving jolly rogers, two fingers up to bloody brutes, burning perfect pitch, atop vinegary hill, picture prayer card poseur priest issues old sago wind up cry—
‘gerrup yous lollabouts for I lead to clear catastrophe’
As a one they rise in confluence to flee the pungent smell of leatherpiss and rotten grapes. This done its home for tay and jallop, pen a ballad, and settle down snug to dream of giggling gombeens…thinks for dat either way, diss gift of liff, made a hames so far—
bad blood, bad houmous, yellow nile, burning figs…

So come Slocomb scrapping, conniving, bad smell rising, bicycles unchained are no more than scooters, technoprat, hence the n-name: Scooter Slowcomb, perpetrator of indecorous road rage and ragworthy ragout, romper stomper, heart of mould, broken nasal baritone par pestilence, snag buster, cringe maker by royal appointment to the House of Cheese & Biscuits
—lead us on a merry dance, big stink. Our souls need filling up with pink creasote and love apples. My tum-tum winks, my throats a slit. Lead on McDuff. Lead on!

Quince, loyal marmaliser heft a mighty wad. Big hearted and shortsighted as Lordy Arturo Pendraggin, pinch nose of mauve snuff, veruka and blisterine: one tough geezer, well rounded clap trapper, conviver, bonifaced spouter of drivelriddles, a Sucker for nourishment. World view contaminant or ripe plump pluckable legumes and succulence, thuswise rotunda temper thunder sunjugated by munch and prickle, keeper of the nipple, chanteur of logorythm of wife, Thermal Spottie Ars—
In for a penny, in for a mound. Shake fist and writhe, boyo Bucky. The ones got your gnome ennit! Let brittle commence, Fifthwith. Chard!

Knees up, tumbledown, grunties, spillage.
The rest is herstory…

Lesczi mantrapped,

Sasquatch chewing,

blood milk lakes,

hairy sunrise.

Three bears wait

On palatable porridge.

Goldilocks sneaks in…

You know the rest.

Lickspittle took a Butchers

 

Bull rushes into
China shop (unseen)
Grabs
(Nay snatches)
Family silver,
Bric-a-Brac
Old Moor’s Almanac
Run of the mill artefacts
Porcelain zebra, farmyard ruminants et al
Inattention to detail
Reveals some fibs within
cloven toenail cumbersome
Grasp…
Ebenezer trundles
furl & fog…meretricious
vague apparitions fail to
thrive:
get that- smiling minx,
water vole, crawfish lipstick
emerges bonnily on rye
one hundred per cent
un-divvied-up
~
Attenshun!
Smell of horsepiss fingers
evermore
evergreen
everlasting·
manifestly bodilicious
scrumptious glowing isotopes
radiate warmth & succour
mystified gobshites
gaze knowingly on blue cheese
nudity reveals truth
that can’t be thrown off
discarded like a uniform, y’know-
Lorenzetti Woman over there
Proud mistress mane
Painted strawberry hangs up
on nuisance caller
lobster telephone exchange
rings for assistance

in lush plush blue grass

resident garden tree gnome

disappears most nights

Pang: unHappy Bunnies

Quite
Out of the
Blue clear new true
Was it you
That gave me this box of frogs?
You know here
(where we come from
from time to time)
we do not play at swopsies
mopsies popsies or
flagrant fluffytails

O Predicament!
Just About
to disEmbark
on blue train jouRney
lifetime went screWy
(brought wrought iron tricycle
along as well for those impromtu outings
sunsetTings: clandestine alfresco
peckadilloes)
O Journey!
unlit smoke filled chateaux sTuffed
fur empurpled knobheads
conspired giggling
belittling me as
lowlife bottom of shoe

O Prisoner!
sub-branch line station
bucolic idyll Piddle
water cress sprawl
abundant over chalkstream
water babbling hanging baskets
dripping fifties bloomers
daZZling floribunda
Mistah Ticketman—gimme cardboard chew
He just nod say:
‘Bon Fromage!’

O Denouement!
waiting room (again!)
smokey dustcloud
fellow travellers true fools
speak of nothing but delays
missing fretwork lynx
O Fistycuffs!
heads up collision down the line
quite avoidable you know
these days with tech knowledge
ee eh never mind
not too many dead so…

get green bus instead
does it: Really, shh U re?
disdainful sneers all round
—it does, it does it to get hardened?

so not done these nowadays
concludes in kersplat
enter baseball battering
peace corps dilletente

O Knees up!
choose yer warpomes ‘ere
promises made to self
watching Roots egg on
artesian duellist

why so angry dear old thing?
rage management blind guide dogs
lurk round nearly every corner
ambulance chasing pooper-scoopers
frequent post traumatic fall
out shelter stormtroops
& soft detritus rains
Coz black leaves matter (a bit)
Polysirens wail laments
