Captain TomYou will have probably heard this story, it's often been told
About Captain Tom who's ninety nine years old
He's a Second World War veteran who's served his country

Pumpkin Patch ShenanigansPumpkin Patch Shenanigans
Puff white cotton candy, royal blue sky
Autumns breathe over a breadth of meadow lie
Tillage field vines pumpkins that catch a bird’s-eye
Grandpa and black bird grand-kids are back in a flyby
Causing havoc with their big pumpkin patch shenanigans
Fearless Scarecrow having an epic...

I Am a Virgin SlammerI am a virgin slammer,
Let me get that over with,
So if I stammer and speak like a bludgeoning hammer,
Let the record be clear: I’m just trying to go with this.
So I won’t walk the walk or talk the talk,
I may even stain the sheets while...

PhilaePhilae
oh rocky outcrop met
a place to rest my weary gear
a slow flyby, a spot to try
and allay the lonely fears
older now and some weight shed
a bit of mass for wizened
a bounce, summersault, a slight tumult
now lying on my side and
post out now a Polaroid
pointing...

100 Seconds To MidnightAn endangered species, living on a ledge,
100 seconds to Midnight, then over the edge,
Nearest to Doomsday, humans have ever been,
Vaporised! inside mushrooms of boiling hot steam.
Casually go about our business, without a care,
While the Sword of Damocles, hangs in the air,
So be it, nevertheless, makes...

Lil NovaAs quasar mixes the starry dust,
a newly formed planet en route’s a must;
new universes revealed beyond black holes
captivating stories are yet to be told.
Tiny newborn sails saturnian seas,
a Venus flyby in Saggittarius is a breeze;
absolute magnitude in glimmer sails on by,
soon new space he will...

Chasing a DreamClouds spread like finger rays of sunshine.
A moment of peaceful repose, a silent sigh,
as I hear whispers at my grasp.
My ceaseless soul clasp to seek golden sun rays,
watching birds flyby with outstretched wings
into the cotton spun woven vast horizon...

Wee Small HoursHobgoblin in the gutter under canopy of midnight,
magic brew of muti without rein.
Shadow figure torchon, darting half-light dare.
Spine chilling droplets wobble slowly down drains,
rusty copper mouthwash at the edge of jagged chutes.
Eerie urban soundscapes frame,
a sneeze or smothered cough.
Drone of vagrant motors...

Dreams Drift As Time Sweeps AwayA moment of tranquil repose, breathing in whispers of sounds and dreams at nature's ethereal doorstep. Quote _by Poet
I gaze towards the sky,
Among the snow white clouds,
And autumn sun,
Watching all the birds' flyby.
With outstretched wings
Flying so high, soaring
Into the vast horizon.
As I sit on the...

Backdoor sound byte diarrhea hurls
Sticky tongue bowel overflow
Little green froggies say the Apollo man from Mars

Sphincter hole toilet bowl saliva swirls

Little kyrptonite toadies say the Venus-born superwoman

KraftwerkIt was a dawn amongst amazing dawns
With a clear and sparkling blinding light
Starting a day of most amazing prospects
When everything seemed to be just right
The clock struck a definitive thirteen
I counted each measured chime
Blinked in surprise at their number
Very nearly missed that split in...
