The Lie of the Land

Eight_Bells

 

Half man: half musket

Was not was

Noisome

Stroke me branches crest the lawn,

Attracting glances beside

the splendiferous alpine experience.

A dog cocks its leg on the ugly plastic herb cover.

The  tiger glows under the daffodil.

Aphids pester gannets

Thrashing in mild dark.

Slow is what it is.

The cream is questionable,

but I have no fear

cautiously prizing the lid

finding caramel and semen.

The red rubber band

on the pastry

turned blue in the freezer.

I leave the door open

to help it find room temperature.

…Radio Ron?

Pop up half mill.

Say it again.

Pop up…light sill.

Comprises:

Dried flowers, heads well dead.

-‘allo Vera

-‘allo Grim

 

All I recall before the whirring blur…

Landrover in the hall.

Half banana & Muesli.

Cheesy cauli scoff by Bo.

Nix no more…

 

Spectacle respectable,

hi-silver scudders

heading Wenward.

 

Fade to mauve diluted grey.

Two crows lope left.

Stilled of a sudden.

 

A polyp in Port Said

abundant floribunda.

No man cast asunder

Poll of Polls

Midnight Lamp

 

When people get asked

how they want

to be governed

they say nothing

or better:

true

democracy

The Daily Terror

Headlines:

Mock hubristic parvenu

eats humble pie elevenses.

Cat shows fur ball disapproval at atrophy.

Elephant chews atmospheric spinach.

Tear stains Willow.

Wheatfield Craze rocks Kuala Lumpur.

Weather: uninterrupted coverage.

Cricket: England draw Water.

Late curfew in Sun City

Feed the Head

In the sugar hole

prized out last remaining twix

hopeful of some oomph

 

The Obtuse Circumstance

800px-France_in_XXI_Century._Whale_bus

 

Pickled punchy

Monday morning sot

K2 ascension

trudge and huff.

 

Wind blusters, gusting away

remnants of claggy, stubborn night.

Wolf pack rampant roadmap

eyeballs throb in misty mirrror.

 

Brain damage limitation.

Fromage  marshmallow ganglia.

Camembert opaque frosted

Yellow day.

 

Insurgent tree surgeons

gather storm broken

eucalyptus limbs.

Big cavernous rumbles.

 

Apple tree crumbles.

Head waiter fumbles,

stumbles, tumbles.

The tray vibrates

 

gawky albatross libations

part company with host,

comic crash slapstick pratfall

radical payload scatters

 

huddled throng,

babbling surprise looks on aghast,

desultory fat barman

fetches bucket and mop,

 

mumbling vacuous

‘Sorriesirs, Moddoms…’

glaring doom on prone

crone squirming,

 

yelping victim

plaintive noises,

just made jobless

in gin and debris.

Vishusss…(hit me with a flower)

Luncheon With Eric

 

So we cut the abstract,

not like light or mayhem

See that, I missed it too

Perhaps it…no

Don’t fall for that

Luxury

Turn off the light.

Shan’t see now

Angels

 

This is you and me

Once immediate

Like a memory

Of

Important lightning

Chantilly Lace

Lo

Scriptic

basquiat-bird-of-paradise

 

chilling on a Friday night,

leaning,

preening

running down an empty street,

blindfold,

screaming

waiting by a waterfall,

fearless,

dreaming

standing in the summer sun,

precious,

beaming

Restraint

Candle on, rain shrewd,

meat pie and two veg,

suppress urge to chew,

black and white movie:

Séance on a Wet Afternoon
