"The Blooming Spirit"

Fragile, delicate, an early bloom.
Struggling to grow from a crack in the street.

Flesh, young and tender, encased in a stony world.
So soft and tender, so strong and determined.

  Your Wee Small Hour

Brains of a rocking horse.
Leading you to the petrol tank.

Drinking in the bad day.

A trash can Sinatra hue.
Sinks you.

And you can murmur your life,
for a dollar quart.

IT WAS YOUR NAME...

The tinkle,
that made my heart relax ,
was your name!

From dawn till dusk,
I had the hope of meeting you,
After dusk, the only thing with me,
was your name!

Photographs

He is unaware of those left
behind.

HEALTH WARNING

WARNING TO DRINKERS # 1

New health warnings should be
On bottles and tins for us to see
Warnings clearly on display
That the consumption of alcohol may
Make you think, like as not

OUT OF THE MOUTH’S OF BABES – THE WEDDING

Six-year-old Ellie was in church
With four-year-old Luke her brother
They were sitting in the church
Attending a family wedding together
Luke laughed, sang, and talked out loud.

CLUBBING IT

I have started to think that dads to old
For clubbing but he just will not be told
He refuses even to listen to my chatter
And doesn’t see why age should matter

  Explaining It

"My whole life is a series of dummies and breasts." (Subject, case study from The Sexual Perversions and Abnormalities by Clifford Allen)

Insanity has many forms

Blah!

Day 01 - Caligula and Harpo

His hair looked good.
It was a day to be photographed.

  Pressure Drop

With you.
in this bed.

Undressed.

Fitting each other.
As if new socks.

Our minds take trips.
Fuelled by tears,
born of heartbreak.

We uncage the stormed nights.

Later.

LEGAL EAGLES 2

VERY TART

A Lawyer is nothing like a Whore
And that’s certainly has been said
Because any ordinary Prostitute
Stops screwing you when your dead

A BRIEF RUN DOWN

LUNCH TIME IN THE CAFETERIA

At a catholic school at lunch time one day
As The children queued up in an orderly way
The first thing that confronted the pupils
On the end of the counter was a large pile of apples

A NEW HORIZON

That first date, The Anticipation
Butterflies in the stomach

Always In Waiting

Life is a journey .
The best is yet to come .

Reasons To Be Fearful

Birds without feathers fly underground...

GET LOST!

If you want to let go my hand and leave,
then get lost!

And if you want to keep on to show me your sympathy,
then just get lost!

There’s no need to think what I’ll do without you,
