abject budget
to wake
undone

Eggset Stun
Stark naked park oak
Bronze burns amber sundown
White copper glare
Traffic blazes slowmo trail
Sparkler impromptu squiggles
Embossed on slow retina
Fading as the day does too

Wide Blue Wanda
Vibe changes sundown
Clustered scapples save the day
White wine weds olives
Anglepoised action stations
Awaiting further information
To impart to my reader
Zelda ‘Toots’ Zuchenslooper
A dogged fighter
Carniverous wolverine
Hypercyclically disposed
Tea and oranges

In Place of Here
Fluted green fretwork
ominous picturebook snap
asylum records
abandon faith all of you who
enter here without permits

Uglies
Look! gurgling gargoyles
grotesquely gurning gargling
blistering mouthwash

Cleaned up as
best I wanted,
feeling slumpish,
taddish offish.
Make a wishlist!
Worst it can do
is not come true
if you’re careful.
The glums are dripping,
grumbling swamp gobs.
I have just done
more this morning
than all weekend.
Ghost revealed his hairy hand,
trimmed his balded pate,
gave himself the willies,
curled up before liars on telly,
waiting on next second wind
to fumigate the fuggers.

Hubristic Wreckage
Hew rugged slither
yesterday’s one tray pork roast,
suitably dried up
penitential fare fuels wet
parlous noonday situation.
Grey March murk supplies
the worldview damp dust thin mud.
Still I am glad to
Survive weekend onslaught
With my genius still intact

radio silence
my favourite station blares
Pratchett’s greatest hits

Sheepwatch
No shedding today,
the ring is barren
twenty two winter sheep
pock the tufty meadow
Still grazing after all these years
Mutton full of vibrant lamb
Gabriel scowls, forlorn as a kid
Who never had a household pet
Still radio silence fills the barn
You can hear the hay
Insinuating rumours
Nits!

Breathe in octave,
in one voice,
the celebration of the fungus,
sharp light on water,
a trout called esther williams
has parasites on its whiskers,
they say: ‘shave this fish, shave this fish’
and slip under a fan dancing turbine
off for porridge & smokies.
