THE PSYCHEDELIC STEW 
 
We loved to drive out through the hills 
Where landscapes are so green, 
And always sought the smell of hay 
That seemed so fresh and clean. 
 
We'd rent a cosy cottage there 
Around that time each year, 
The days and...

I bid you farewell my friend

I'll be on the next  plane of no return

Number three two k

a ticket one way

in forever gone to stay

And if you ever come to miss me

in want to hear my voice

   Just remember

So many days i dialled...

'Twas the night before Christmas and outside was blizzardly
Mrs Claus was busy hanging baubles on the Christmas tree
Santa felt cold and shivery and was succumbing to the flu
And told Mrs Claus "I'm feeling ill, what am I going to do?".

She was giving it some thought...

I got a story 'bout a boy from the hood
Stayed out of trouble tried as hard as he could
Initiated when he was 12 years old  
They gave him a bandana and he did what he was told

Within a couple years
He held a gun inside...

Neighbours hadn’t seen Johnny since his beloved wife’s funeral
Even then, no one thought to check if the old man was okay
Gasps of horror were heard when his body was discovered
Limply hanging from the rafters of his bedroom ceiling
Even the post piling up in the porch...

PARABLE IN AN ODE.

My muse guides me to compose,
A Parable in an Ode.....
Once was driving on sodden roads,
Automobile went into overload,
Smoke emissions from transmission,
To car jam  I did not give permission,
Dialled Roadside assist on my mobile phone,
Ages passed, standing by side of road,
Then along...

"Symposium"



where do you go 
when you try to 
dream your place

in my life 

gone now 
from your 
quicksand shores

once I rolled over 
placed my mouth 
against your throat

what used to be

as if you 
could transfer
some voice back into me 

I was so naive
missing the signs
in...

From undertaker to conversation maker
The callers were now all alone
The clickerty - clack
Of the Strowger exchange
No operators needed to answer the phone
~GG~ 

An Undertaker called Strowger invented the Strowger Telephone Exchange making the need of an Operator to connect calls unnecessary. The mechanism made a...

I snook up to the window
Light was lit inside
Trying to make myself invisible
Against the wall I pressed my side

I shuffled along inch  by inch
was just about to peak
When i heard someone in the room
Raised voices and a slap, felt weak

Oh my what shall i do...

"Super Hero"



Krypto Knighted
Disrobed Le Penseur 
contemplates strength
a royal monk disrobing within
Rodin begins to think
new dreams dialled in
naked vulnerability begins
hiding behind dark angel wings
pinned between the box-cadged 
dimensions of a glass onion
black crows waiting along the ley lines lead, 
super natural morsel fed
dark nights fly into...

It was a Saturday, October that the world was standing still, 
raining like you won’t believe and all this idle time to kill.
It’s in between the seasons now the ‘granny’ has been won,
and the cricket’s still two weeks away - so how do I have...

Tom’s the longest-serving member, 
Of the British para-rowing squad, 
Because whilst at a party, thunder, 
He fell, slipped with all his quad. 

He played rugby for Warwick Uni, 
Because he lived for, loved sport,
But Coventry’s hospital said he, 
Was paralysed, their true report. 

As part...

Sausages are meal items that should be avoided at all costs by very small rabbits. Tiny white fish with silver fins carry red flags that denote danger in a tide. So hop jump up a tree then. That should be interesting and safe as solace...

Stan and Mary went in town
To buy Stan a new dressing gown.
But he wanted a woollen one
In our March that is not on.


The shops are full of summer clothes
But Stan’s not warm enough for those.
Mary likes to look around
But see how old Stan frowns


.So Mary...

I finally took a bath
   this morning
After all day yesterday
   Sunday
With the taste of you
   still on my mouth,
The scent of you in all
   the rooms 
   and on my couch.
Ache inside my belly.

I dialled;...
