Bonehead Bill

...ldn't see 'is face because
The night was 'ideous thick.
I just made out among the black
A blinkin' wedge o' white;
Then biff! I guess I got 'im crack --
The man I killed last night.

I wonder if account o' me
Some wench will go unwed,
And 'eaps o' lives will never be,
Because 'e's stark and dead?
Or if 'is missis damns the war,
And by some candle light,
Tow-headed kids are prayin' for
The Fritz I copped last night.

I wonder, 'struth, I wonder why
I 'ad that 'orful dream?

Dream Song 15: Let us suppose valleys and such ago

...this will be remembered & told over,
that she was heard at last, haughtful & greasy,
to brawl in that low bar:
'You can biff me, you can bang me, get it you'll never.
I may be only a Polack broad but I don't lay easy.
Kiss my ass, that's what you are.'

Women is better, braver. In a foehn of loss
entire, which too they hotter understand,
having had it,
we struggle. Some hang heavy on the sauce,
some invest in the past, one hides in the land.
Henry was not his favourite....Read more of this...

Pigs

...ill the high ridgebacks was us
with weight-buried hooves. Or bristly, with milk.
Us never knowed like slitting nor hose-biff then.
Nor the terrible sheet-cutting screams up ahead.
The burnt water kicking. This gone-already feeling
here in no place with our heads on upside down....Read more of this...

The Ghost of the Murderers Hut

...k on the floor, 
With terror my features were stiff, 
Till the thing gave a kind of a roar, 
Ending up with a resonant "Biff!" 

Then a cheer burst aloud from my throat, 
For the thing that my spirit did vex 
Was naught but an elderly goat -- 
Just a goat of the masculine sex. 

When his master was killed he had fled, 
And now, by the dingoes bereft, 
The nannies were all of them dead, 
And only the billy was left. 

So we had him brought in on a stage 
To the house where, in...Read more of this...

The Odyssey Of Erbert Iggins

...sport, you're a-slackin' your grip."
Gord! But I'm crocky already;
 My feet, 'ow they slither and slip!
There goes the biff of a bullet.
 The Boches have got us for fair.
Another one -- WHUT!
The son of a ****!
 'E managed to miss by a 'air.
'Ow! Wot was it jabbed at me shoulder?
 Gave it a dooce of a wrench.
Is it Eddy or me
Wot's a-bleedin' so free?
 Crust! but it's long to the trench.
I ain't just as strong as a Sandow,
 And Ed ain't a flapper by far;
I'm blamed if I unde...Read more of this...
