Flipping the Bluebirds
“Flipping the Bluebirds”
There’s no point playing
Norwegian Wood
when your keyboard’s
like a gun calling
murdering
all your darlings
for other meaningful
glories
lavender doesn’t sit well
when violet’s riddled story
winds up the beat
dodging silver bullets
like sunshine dancing
across the governance board
and the soft-shoe watch
showered with...

Trump Flipping His LidTrump Flipping His Lid
My Today Forward Day By Day

writing poems and posting them
on Poetry Soup an act of grace?

All politicians in the beltway show
what signs of times we put up with today,
obesity is in again, we know

while those left out...

Fly Flipping Here and ThereAn early morning appetiser to help breakfast go down better. TC
This just to whet your appetite
As A Fly Does
What would it be like to be a Fly?
Buzzing around wondering why
Flitting from lampshade to curtain and back,
Dodging the cobwebs and flyswats that...

Flipping MaskMusic of deception plays loud
Mask flips on the faces of crowd
In sly chameleon celebration
I dance with me in isolation.

A Flipping VisionSome flipping visions leave behind,
Gripping influence on the mind,
They do refresh us more and more,
When are recalled to be flavoured,
From the heap of sunken memories.

With healthy sanguine vigorous face,

God Never Likes Flipping His LidGod Never Likes Flipping His Lid
Why could there be cesspool of ridicule

To find way to stop their misbehaving.
Where you start is most important of all
There could be chips and how they fall
That...

Of perspectives
Lenses changed
Newness arriving

Seeming to miss
There's no one
To witness
A flip..but that's
Another story......

Flipping My LidIt’s been a hard day but there’s no laws to say
That I can’t settle down with a gin
Late night R & R with an hour of TV
And then I will maybe turn in
The gin… that was easy, just spin that screw cap
Then tip up the...
