Long Decant Poems

Seven was my number,
When you first gave me that gift,
The tunnel you forever fixed in my heart,
I can make you remember,
 
At home from Jean’s where I’d gone to mother play,
You thoroughly dribbled a hot...

The hustle of the
Khyber pass
Dusty 
Dirty
Traffic chaotic 
Pori’s border
Like the ground
Soaking up my foot prints
We move beyond
The bus is silent
In this barren landscape
I look upon the discarded
Shells of war
Interesting
I identify shells
From many wars
Like a walk
Along...

Oh great eye of darkness 
Pour down milky glow 
My beacon of brilliance 
Begin the creep show 

Come my precious orb of night
Above the shroud of inky fright
Beam my silent pumpkin moon

the other has been carried off
by wolfish priests.

Lovingly Dedicated to My Closest Friend, My Mother



My loving friend can caress cares away.

Monkey chant and fake fraternity front
Brandished on the grand soccer stage
Rush Russian bear invectives to decant
Insanity and indignity rolled into ribald rage.

Monkey chant and plastic smile politics grow blunter
In post-Soviet soccer stadia. Russian bears under...

The Palace of Westminster is crumbling,
the state of democracy stumbling.
Lurching to the right reaching for Brexit,
how is Parliament going to fix it?
With toxic asbestos and unsafe wiring,
they'll have to decant – with sea level rising.

MOAN CHERIE

    

I knew you were mine before you were really mine
Dreamed up by a declarative design
Declared by destiny as duly sworn to dutifully adore each moment shared together

Waiting for chips*
Hungry at noon
Vinegar, salt
Use a fork not a spoon

Eat by the sea
Where the waves are unhurried
Peas that are mushed
Sauce that is curried

Two slices of bread
A chip butty create
Overloading my buds 
Luscious carbohydrate

There are...

Our true destination, 
is written in the radiant mist 
and song silently upon a silver breeze. 
whispered harmonies weeping graceful melodies, 
to the lost who cannot find. 

we bathe in illusion that makes us visible,...

If a dog is stopped from pooping, is he DEterred?
Has your hair all of a sudden DEparted?
Donald Duck's pay cheque was once DEducted

Vibrant  Blue
Vibrant blue  always paves my bright ways,
And reinforces me to reach the lavish peaks.
It weaves my life with eternal ambition rays,
Wherever birds  share me pleasure by creeks.
Pure blue color is a...

You cannot begin to write a book on a Wednesday
especially this week that has its own tales to tell,
there being no room for more.

Between those snowy pages, let silence wait 
for its voice,
for now keep...

By the right hand
