Babylonia : Part Two - Noahs Walk
Babylonia : Part Two -
Noah’s walk
Pandas chew bamboo, while you film them in the nude;
Red Elephants are extinct (Apart from a view).
Fly up high, escape the zoo’s!
The latest attraction is a Man named Hu.

A Ray of Sun On a Rainy Day
i stood looking outside
listening to the rain
with its long slender fingers
tap a tune against my window
squeegees in hand
i could see
the troops of drops
clean the air
for a clearer view
while on their descent
people
some walking
holding their umbrellas
others...

Dreaming of Death
Death is like a dream
Hope that keeps me wishin
I know I'm not going to heaven
I've done too much sining
Stars hanging in the sky
Like cherries I can pick
Teaching me a lesson
Somethings are impossible to reach
What's the...

Spring Chicks
Easter egg hunts are proof your child can find things when they really want to. —Unknown
Peep, peep, peep, peeping, chirping, tweeting, peeping
cheeping wildly, declaring they aren’t sleeping
tiny cracks in shells, sure they’re alive and well,

Invercargill My Little Town
There is a little town deep down south from which I came.
There you will find beauty from the beach, beyond are waves that crash into the
sand and hills that line the shore. Each...

Changing Seasons
I start with Spring glorious spring
the time when things wake up
and once more colour floods
the earth with beautiful scented flowers
They all bask with delight in the yellow sun
while birds are busy building nests
in which...

Sallys Ghost
Well SALLY'S corpse is in the graveyard
But her ghost clings to me like an old wet
Blanket...maybe it's because I treated her
Like dirt when she was alive and shot her
When I caught her cheating on me...

I din't travel by bus to school
Neither did my mother drive me there
With my friends and cousins
I had the best of childhood fun
During my primary school days
On my way to school

Cowboys don’t fear the coyote,

And a panther, will stalk you,

Die Die Pesky Fly - Lipogram
Sweltering summer temperatures
and warm sultry summer nights
left me scratching my legs red raw
I hate receiving nasty insect bites
I’d slather bare limbs with cream

Bites are an issue that I live...

Why don’t I sleep?
Why don't I sleep?
Those creepy crawlies under my bed
Those monsters in my closet- they’re
in my head instead
The rotten apple is my heart
I’m alone in the dark
That black blanket pressing
Down, down, down
Cocooned...

My Favourite Things, Not
Black spot on roses and fingerless mittens
Green stinging nettles and flea ridden kittens
All creepy crawlies and insects with wings
These are a few of my un-favourite things
When my back aches
When my head spins
When I’m fighting mad

Bones
Bones I watch once a week
So that I can see.
Creepy crawlies everywhere
Plus a mystery.
I gained some luck just recently
And get to watch it seven.
They air it now every night
I think I must be in heaven.

The scarecrow
Surrounded in a field of sugar cane
The sun begins to set
He musters out a yawn
A horizon he has seen for the last 34 years
From which he was placed to lay and hang

Gila Monster
I'm solitary, roaming
The American southwest desert;
Heaving my bulky body -
Covered with bead-like scales
Of black and yellow -
Across hot sands and rocks
In search of prey.
I'm a nocturnal,
Cold-blooded lizard.
I flick out my forked poisonous...

Backpacker Mother
In the tangled jungle of my mind
creepies and crawlies
bite and suck.
They feast on your blood
and fill you with venom.
Howls of the night
keep you from rest,
and contorted vines
grab at your feet.
Oh, and the poisons
that turn your...

Spring Cleaning In Winter
It is not only the weather that is unreliable these days.
Spring cleaning now happens only in most people's dreams,
Or when something lost leave few alternatives,
To entering the domain of spiders and other creepy crawlies,
And praying...
