Best Hansom Poems


Barbie Doll
Barbie’s precision, stiff, lounging in glamorous style, 
Plastic pink body asleep in a brand new cardboard box.
Barbie, eyes still open, abused by many of Ken's wiles,
She was once truly human, her daughter opens the lock.
The key is that her daughter Tara, is now forty or...

A Visit To London
When first I saw London, it was in a book in the library,
But then I came to England, experiencing its history.

The Bridges over the river Thames, like sentinels over the city stand...
While the long Buildings of Parliament, lay beneath Big Ben's command.
The Palace Guard at...

The Homeless Toreador
There was a dashingly hansom young Toreador 
Who slept on the floor of a corridor 
But things they got worst 
When he met this cute nurse 
Now he sleeps in her medical storage draw....

Surgery
Such an invasion will not go unavenged-

I will render my prostate prostrate

Lest my humor become unhinged

It so betrays my desire to micturate, yea even to conjugate.

 

And I will radiate radiation

When approached I will shout Unclean! Unclean!

I will need some serious anesthesiation

Just to maintain my...

British Politics
BRITISH POLITICS



I did well not to get involved with politics;
I saw through local councillors
With their holiday homes in the Highlands.
I gave New Labour the slip and went canvassing
For the Love Spirit.
Like Big Ben, I looked down on Westminster
Politicians; I wouldn't give them the time of...

Aware that you don't know me, but it's you that I adore
I see you with a man, as he twirls you 'round the hall
And i wish that man was me, and my name,...

Our Firsts
I love experiencing all our firsts,
 The first time you walked me to my car,
underneath the shiny stars.

And how I couldn't wait 2 taste your lips.

so confident and equipt.
 Never took our time for granted,

The Barretts of Wimpole Street
Imagine you’re a woman, with a mind
as trained, acute and fertile as exists.
Imagine that your erudite, refined
creations top each year’s best-seller lists.

You write in English, French and Portuguese.
Translating ancient classics from the Greek,
(for you, no bigger deal than shelling peas)
you thrill the world, to hear...

Grandpa 
You always know just what I’m thinking
You know just when to call
You are the ideal Grandpa

Granddaddy
You are my shady tree
You block the violent sun
You are an exceptional Granddaddy

You buy me lots of ice-cream
You play lots of games
You are the ultimate Grandpapa
