Little ladybug
I’ll save you from the basin 
But a fly must die...

Hail the swaying stalks
Bowed so fiercely to razor 
breeze
Watch that young one stand
See the will-o-wisp rise!
From clover fields of hay
An idea, a spark
There is no fear
There is no pain

The bullwhip snaps
Goes the gust of wind, alas.
He hasn't worked out quite 
enough
Ketchup dripping from stomata
Drops pitter...

UN-NATURAL SELECTION


PERHAPS IT ‘S  JUST A BIG BANG DESECRATION
UNRAVELLING OF NATURAL SELECTION
BUT WE MUST CAST A VOTE
THE DUNGEON OR THE MOAT
IN HOPES THE WHOLE DAMN THING’S AN ABERRATION

Time reveals the meaning of life
Our purpose is something we define
This lone conscious creature
Is burdened by the instinctual conscious mind

If we take a post reductionist perspective
We start with a primordial cup of tea
A petri dish
Brimming with endless possibilities

The successful drives from antiquity
Lie deep in the...

I mean was Darwin thinking when he wrote this theory
When I studied Psychology and read this I said O’ dear me
Only the strong shall survive was his point
I think on this subject his jaw was out of joint
Observing two similar birds with different beaks
Saying that’s...

I could not stick my head in glue
To feed and wait with barnacles,
Or seek security among
Aggregate anemones,
Or anchor to tomorrow with sedentary polyps,
Or browse with slugs,
Or cling to rocks,
Or maintain the perpetual
Defensiveness of urchins,
Or achieve “being realistic”
With camouflaged bottom dwellers,
Or remain isolated in a shell.

I...

Twin lightning bolts
strike at the same time,
one a tree
the other me.

Nature decides;
the tree is scarred,
me, ashes in a jar.

Natural selection, nature
decides....

The melancholic moon hangs, guilty in the mourning mist.
The murderous sun rises to execute the closing vapour.
Innocent winds unknowingly disperse the evidence far and wide.
And I awaken from my snow-filled dream to shower under forgiving rain,
as ignorant to nature's glorious torment as volcanoes are to...

"NATURAL SELECTION"

eventually the baby 
will be conceived, 
it will cry, laugh and talk.
it will crawl, walk
and run.
the moon will dance 
through the night.
the sun will ride
valiantly into a
death match.
the rain will cry
as it falls.
the thunder will roll
and the lightning
will strike.
the flowers will bloom.
the roses will...

Gravely digging the grave digger digs
holes for souls; waste pits plotted
earth soils clogging
Collections of bones for storage and mind
Disposal in disguise
Many a form, Goldfinch alike, are left 
in place of death; laying spent, shrivelled
dishevelled, colours still abright
I wasn't going to dig a hole so I...

Welcome to My Shopping Plaza
Reserved purely  for the best,
Entry initially is only by passing
Our Received Pronunciation Test,
Closely followed by meeting
Our test of  personal wealth.
(No well spoken impoverished
Slipping in by stealth.)
When it comes to shortlisting
I’m afraid you’ll be needing
More than adequate proof of
Good blood...

i congratulate and uplift
i never put down
does not matter if whatever is more than my less
i am proud 

too many people put down
too many people spread hate
too many people waste needed energy
instead, why not encourage instead of discourage

there are levels of speed in life
there are...

For five years the illustrious and regal
Charles Darwin, sailed on the Beagle.
A surveying ship,
Notebooks all a’rip,
Soon in battle with Wallace, so legal....
