Best Mash Poems

Pie and mash, pie and mash
Loads of nosh for not much cash
Warms yer cockles fills you up 
Wash it down with a good strong cup
Pour the Sarsons in the pie
Come on fellah don’t be shy
Loads of liquor, lovely stuff
Us cockney lads can’t get enough ...

When Frankenstein’s bride was created
The monster was surely elated
He asked her to dance
As he sought romance
To screams his poor ego deflated

Count Dracula surveyed the dance floor
He sought a mate sporting great pallor
“Morticia” stood out
He gave her a shout
But she brushed him off for the Centaur

Incredible...

Jellied eels and pie n mash.
East London Fair, and that’s a fact.
The Dockers hands, and the pearly kings.
Their romance gone, the truth it stings.
The Bow Bells ring, they sound out loud.
Cockney chests, they puff out proud.
Not much left of old world London town.
Inside office blocks...

From Seventy-two to Eighty-three,
I took a rest from reality
To watch these doctors laugh and cry.
(And some of them would even die.)

It was a story of Korean War
Which had ended twenty years before,
But Vietnam War was in full force
And we were all involved of course.

The horrors...

Barely Bear!

Today, barefooted I walked behind a bear.
Not behind just any old bear,
But behind a bear, whose behind was bare!!
And barely steps behind the bear - 
This is the bear with the bare behind,
Followed two more bears with bare behinds!
Had they all three worn their...

sausages mash and peas

Slowly climb the leaning tree and learn about leaves
Count them
Count the corners
The points
The colours
And when you have completed this climb back down but quickly this time
For this is a process of professionalism and professionalism is neither a professor picking potatoes and nor...

What if smiling moon
Is brighter than the sun?
And the flakes of tumoil tend
To vile when fully regatherd

While i tame time my fab
I extricate by the vast drab
Of quality i fade for emptyness
The knobs of metaphor was

Red-hot and fickle fame flies
Off the vicinity of restless
Scimiter..ALAS! vile...

Cameras connecting
you to the war
dialogue telling you
why and what for.

At the very moment your 
eyes fill with tears
Someone says something funny
and you laugh with no fears.

A brilliant combination of
danger and love
Humanity portrayed
making you a part of. 

This series that kept
you on the edge of your...

The doctors would always take turns
And Hawkeye would have his concerns
The nurse with hot lips
Was swinging her hips
Enticing the lonely Frank Burns

I mash my potatos
Mash mash mash 
Salt and pepper play
As the milk mingles with the butter
I twirl my fork to make a swirl in the creamy mixture
Mash mash mash
Taste so good
These mashed potatos
Hot garlic running inside
Playing hide and seek
With the fried skins of paradise 
I...

Circular motions of mice dressed in vividly printed mushroom skirts. Could be acronyms for stars. Could bring the brooms to the brooks. Many a flea could clean a flowered stalk. While the emblem of an embroidered teacloth sits quiet in contemplation. Ears are easily drawn...

Gonna lay down my burdens
by the river of life flowing out of me.
Gonna study war no more.

Gonna put on my long white robe
down in the depths of my heart
Gonna study war no more.

Gonna lay down my burdens
cause I'm in right out right up right down...

?
I was  down in Westminster the other night

and there I saw a most horrible sight.

I thought I saw a man without a head.

Cromwell? I asked, or a king long dead?




I then saw a dame with a horrid lurid glance,

not quite the sort you'd be...
