Past the Grain Fields
Past the grain fields clanks the old train,
and it goes beyond the fertile valley;
then it vanishes amid the swaying hills,
not too far from the massive castle
built by the Normans, and it's pelted by rain,
washing the...

Clinks, clanks, rattles, 'Ouches' and ' Ohs'!

Curious, Peter, looked out through a chinc,
And watched Vie and...

Personification
I saw hope dance through lightening
An eerie glow swallows up the sun as our men lie wounded,
Brass against iron, loud clanks of armor, and the glorious hymn of victory,
Today we are knights, and our bodies float above the crushing tides...

The Mysterious Tankards of Dunkirk Hill
For Didds
Four tankards found at the foot of the hill
Bet someone got w*nkered, and now they feel ill
Bet it went down so easy that no one resisted
And now they’ve forgotten the tankards existed
But down at...

For Biafra 3
In your blood we are birth,
In you we shall die like sons,
When the wind shall call of
A global village; you'll stand.
Of a truth your erotic voice is
The envy of many nations.
Before the night cut's heal...

18 Wheels and Away
Blank stares and wide open spaces
wrinkled lines on work-worn faces
Sleep deprived on overload
wide awake in bed alone.
A thousand miles between us still
The worries and stress are real
The pavement clanks on old, worn tires
burning diesel in...

light weight and telescopic

i will displace myself upon it
i can lean it where and...

Money, Value, and a Response
“Four dollars a shot,”
marched from the bartender’s mouth -
each syllable carried the clanks
of Herbie’s Rhodes – jutting like
glacier crags in swells of desert-base.
They carried the smoke curling like
a silver chain...

Drowning In Suberbia
The land around here looks like it belongs to the side of a lake,
it slopes downward gently, suggesting a meeting with water,
it front-yard-surfs on grass rippling winds,
it slowly sails under the puffy power of clouds.

Cilantro's Molest
Delicately smoke stacks rose in tendrils
From my lobotomised mind, tracks of steam
Channels which searched for surrendour
Teased unfamiliar air aflame, eventual glean
Chances which blind chases never uncovered
Now relaxed stance soul caresses confirm
Worth in the...

Costa Lamento
Same old routine, same venue too
We join the queue, I order
Flat white for her with fern motif
Tan crema round the border
For me a capuccino, large
With sifted chocolate powder
Baristas all look younger now
The music slightly louder
We...

Grandma's Kitchen
Yellow cabinets, like sunflowers are planted on top of floral walls,
the sink is clean; the lemon scent still lingering in the corners,
the cooker whistles, and the sound echoes excitedly, bringing smiles to the waiters,...

TWO LOVERS FRESH.......
I watch two lovers in fresh embrace
through my installed double glazing
they seem too young for such desire
that all embracing consuming fire....
It warms me, innocently gazing
My border yields...

My Life As a Car
My Life as a Car
Rusted and busted see my orange face
Used to grace the showroom place
See these broken eyelights that shone so bright
They saved your life one darkened night
Edsel body, wet shell to forget
Dear little...

They Come In Twos-Unwanted Guests Contest
Driving past the couple
I could see
They were heading my way
Expecting tea
Now anyone is welcome
At my humble home
Except those two
Why have they come?
She clanks her teeth when she speaks
His nose always running... he eats...

She guides me in and sits me down.
Not the Remington portable typewriter this time.
I grab a pen and some parchment they have more life i believe.
The mechanical twists and clanks sound so hollow.

Mortal Prose
The sibilant wind blows
over frosted shingles of cracked porcelain.
Passed chain link a fissured road
wends the dry creek of my mind;
downtown the stars are charted
at a four-way stop of plywood windows,
oxidized copper's turquoise matte.

When a House Speaks
at night, in the darkest part of the hour,
during the quietest part of the night,
my house speaks.
painful clanks of plumbing
complain of rusty pipes,
shifting uneasily in iron skin.
walls, old and creaking,
move restlessly amongst rotting wood,...

Ruin
A building ruin touches my heart
Its days of worthiness are now gone.
Its French doors are now falling apart
crumbled bricks inhabit one-time-lawn
Weeds climb trellis instead of lace vine
Honeysuckle no longer calls bees.
Bush roses at last gave...

Summer Sounds I
Summer Sounds I
an alarum of distant clanks
wakens drowsy heads
bright eyes inspect the room
outside the sun is calling
tapping on the windows
with cedar branches, “get up”
cow bells clank in dull chorus
they trod home for relief
milk splishes...
