a young boy once

...a young boy once lived in a zoo
round him such a hullabaloo
to earn his full daily keep
he looked after all the sheep
shovelling up their mounds of poo

to change his one job he pestered
and w...

'I hate you'

...'It's a pain that I caught you at a bad time
It's a shame that I memorised your out-line'
You were so honest about your whole lifetime, 
It took me too long to notice you were never truly mine.

...

Enough

...Is it enough to call yourself a poet,
take some scattered words and hang them out like flags
flapping pointless rags unless arranged with skill,
pooled to fill an empty space with dribbled verbs
...

Green Stuff

...

   The greens in my salad,
   Do not look the same.
   Not lettuce or spinach,
   Can't really explain.
   The leaves are light green.
   Some are light,
   Some are fluffy.
   Some have h...

SCARY STORY

...SCARY STORY

I heard a loud knock on the door last night
A cloudless sky with a moon shining bright
It was quite late, and about the time for bed
Through the door’s glass panel I saw a head
A d...

Being Bob

...Being Bob

Bob, is just an ordinary guy in every sense of the word. Five ft eight inches tall, a little on the chubby side and has lost most of his hair. No one pays much attention to Bob, that’s j...

The Eclipse of Sanity

...Howling winds flung me into the sea
waves lashed kelp ropes around me
my belligerence grew when I was seized
anger brewed the tighter they squeezed

With fists raised and teeth clenched
I resis...

linger

...I ripped the skin off my fingers, I didn’t want a fingerprint that had touched you to linger. 

You could never deserve the feeling that my fingers could grace your skin, spat out your kisses as if...

HOLY HOOPS

...HOLY HOOPS
 
In the court of Hades, the spirits wailed,
Satan's clutches seemed to have prevailed.
But then descended Jesus, bold and true,
With a ball in hand, signifying victory for me & you, ...

Homeless in the Rain

...The sky, heavy-laden with curdled black clouds,
Burst wide open, and all night long it rained.
It pitter-pattered on the panes,
And rattling on the slanting roofs.
It churned the dry soil to a pu...

Peek-A'-Boo

...White clouds slowly turning dark as if flavored coffee dribbled 
     from above.
Winds of the unknown blew fiercely thru almost bare trees.
Crackling noise of an angry cloud Is heard in the dista...

Body Map

...Sleepless, the body becomes 
a mind map strung out on a bed,
color coded in degrees of pain.
Each movement sends an update,
a glowing patch of deepening red
or a lava line of heat solidifying

vision of nirvana on groundswell earth,
chirping bird amber tone on hedgerow,
cacophony that piercing aural backdrop,
