Altogether now!

Laws were made

for the obedience of Fools,

and the guidance of Wiseguys.

Reach for the Skies

The

Wrong sorts

Of

Hirsed

Saharan sands

And car smut,

And fumes

Industrial & Domestic,

Combine

Continental

And homemade

Detritus

become

atmosphere:

some air left.

Big, thick mist carouses car hum and buzz.

Warmer globe, scoop the parrot, wetlands lie low,

Exposed, vulnerable, prone.

Low emerald hopes incline,

in the windless mill pond offing gannets

fight for alfalfa seven times diurnally.

The French fleet lurk behind the  seaweed bar

Waiting for the cows to come home to roost.

 

Gains seem Few

 

Three, new time

Dante on.

Hurt reading. Dante hurt.

On reading.

Hurt on. Reading Dante.

On reading.

Dante hurt.

Hurt Dante.

Reading on.

Five, new time.

Play School Run

One…

 

Moo-cows and moo-bulls

thick mist and drizzle.

With window open I give

Whisht; ruff & honours paused,

Play-Boys & Play-Girls

dragged half-dead from dream

to school

to play.

 

Two…

 

The big kids attend

grownup therapy

later with grownups.

Children in Need,

they exasp, have these!

Comic relief, they

sad clown, give me some

I need it.

 

Three…

 

How they chuckle

at their chosen lot.

Today, we will not

play with cats

learn

a nursery rhyme called:

Brock the Bad

Bad Badger.

 

Four…

The children will nap,

not get to the last,

best dream,

and cry and

scream, and run away

to live with cats and

friendly badgers

in the woods.

 

Five…

 

It is there you can

Contract polio,

malaria, diphtheria, and hysteria

like the big kids who

fetch you later and

scold you for what they’ve been through.

You will learn a lesson

They will regret.

Many Happy Returns

A woman crossing a stile after the flooding in the Thames Valley, December 1915

Adeline

slipped away

alone

with herself

together

she walked

into

the river

Forever

Been Fishin’

Company and drink

enter the room

warm menace, sardonic, knowing, sage

Scarlatti.

When this episode, this little jolly, is over, is it

another Tempest.

An

attractive, familiar, alternative,

sickening, horrific, act of self-harm,

abuse, and neglect?

Why this lack of worth, of purpose, of me?

But,

if this is me how can the alternative

attractive familiar be denied?

Take a good look at the situation.

How does one change it, confront, combat it?

Have a nice day!

 

Sinball!

Without a hangover as well.

Forget the bottle,

you got the bottle.

Repression.

Gonna play this game of life to win:

shower at eight, sort papers, get creamed up

and dressed

and go,go,go…

 

Brunch Lake

Not clearing, grey stays

The corseteers drink cream

Chicken cup soups

With gullible croutons

 

Corrugated tin roof din

Wet cats weep

Waiting for morsels

Or dead fledglings

Drowned maiden flight.

 

A quick gasper, some goss

Back to whalebones

And big hollow needles

For fat cameleopards

Untitled

Satire is Dead

A feeling of tundra floods the changing room,

showers preoccupied by dirty, bloody,

foot resters.

How one bleeds, unaware of the stream and

puddle under the desk the surge of red

pumping rivulets,

veinfluid villa floor mosaic slopes

delta grouted runnel and gutter.

Nero’s noblest toerag spills his last.

Vomitarium graffiti states clear:

Petronius expired  here
