Scroodles

All that Fall

from

mighty oak trees

brittle acorns

drip

To Wilf & The Pals

Late on parade today

(Big night at the Senokot)

finds one knelt on

Selfless selfish knees

exposed to the elements

undaunted by a Portland Stone

~

Tautological claptrap some say

There might be something in it

So I thought genuflecting

Before St Wilfred

Another Unknown

Poet

The Pitch

Talk a good story?

Conceptualization, Doug?

You see what I mean?

The eye of the beholder

Hanging from a withered thread?

No! Much More colourful

Got you – Car Chases…?

More like Sunburst Finishes

& total silence.

Nuh?

Can’t quite see it

Whizzbangs

Unsettled all day

did not stick to anything

just keep seeing

Red Ruby Laudanum

she drives me out of my mind.

Calling anyone that!

~

Yea,

that’s the mood of the moment:

Scatty logical.

That ain’t even a haiku.

Lower than the lowest whim

Sarcasm for beginners.

~

Do I really wannabe straight?

Already made up.

Nowhere to go that

Comes springing to mind.

Shit on the telly!

It falls to someone…

*

Turn and turn and turn

Once more, Encore.

Dizzy Gillespie

Blowing up his own trumpet.

Eternal infernal yap.

Quell them disturbances.

Risen! Is it?

slob dons long john-johns
chthonic dressing gown crumbles 
down below (Harken! The Bells)
truffle waffle kerfuffle
muffled
chronic iconic
gin & tonic
how ironic!

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
