Best 2017 Poems

Fight hard 
as long as you're not too defensive
or worse, stronger than him
so we can't tell that he hit you
so we don't have to pick up your slack

Speak your mind
as long as your voice isn't louder than his
or worse, too assertive or contradicting it
so you...

OBSERVATION – 2017

Far from Monet’s garden
    with ruptured thought of plain air
the futurist philosophers have tasted
    the poison mushroom
        and rushed to Bethlehem

As though mere noise will save the day
They wave to...

9 more days and christmas will be back
That man in the red suit carrying his sack
Squeezing down your chimney 
Or using the magic key

Merry Christmas everyone I know for 2017
We raise a glass to you all Alex, Jobird and family

To absent friends that have passed
Your...

Hull is the great and unique city where I was born
Sitting on the Humber estuary...proud and all alone
Known for keeping Charles I and his army out through courage and bravery
Also the birthplace of William Wilberforce who helped abolish slavery
The most bombed city outside of London...

(Subjective Poem)

New Years comes around way to soon each year.
There is so much to do and never enough time.
I usually don’t make resolutions because –
I NEVER have been able to keep them.

I wish for many improvements in my life.
For starters I want to start working...

New Years Day, ready or not, surely comes.
In quiet celebrations or barroom brawls,
Joys and pains may bring delight or bedlams.
Confetti falls and men toast one and all.

In quiet celebrations or barroom brawls,
The junction of laughs and fears, then, begins. 
Confetti falls and men toast one...

And there are groans and wishes from anxious football fans.

The spirits of  angry widows steadily   grow bitter 
The bosoms of weeping mothers  open wide
While the relics of the past kept washing upon our shores.

To fight against ignorance, stupidity and vice
Or to be more precise
To fight for something grander than against,
Unrecompensed.

Today we remember those who died...

"It is  the year of the coq"
Said Alice from Dallas
"Rooster rhymes with booster
and gallus with phallus"

Ladies, prepare for a goose
Grope Meister Trump's on the loose
Not one clucking request
Will ever feather your nest

The Russians gave him a boost
So Grope Meister Trump rules the roost
But if...
