One cold and stormy night
The snow and clouds that gathered
Made Santa ground his flight.

He landed behind the graveyard
In Dallas Doyle Park,
He came down with such a loud crash
He...

That an adult black panther, kept as a pet, had escaped,
And was now prowling around the back alleys in town, according to the tweets.
Big cat far too...

I stood confused in a hole so deep 
So dark and miserable, cold and alone 
Scared and fearful of the unknown 
Nothing but grey clouds filled my sky 
Filled with rain and thunderous roars...

One day Gaia was doodling
with sharp twig, on scribbly gum.
"Note to Self"
These big-brained bipeds
are getting far too cocky for their britches.
All the dumb-arses 
are becoming smarty-pants.
These bloody bipeds are building
bloody big Babel information towers

Premium Member To Mars Or Bust
Done with "Liven in the Lockdown"
We've sold up all our worldly stuff.
We're off tomorrow,
on our other worldly adventure,
our one-way migration to
"Habitat One", Utopia Crater, Mars.

Picked up a nice little condo pad
built 3D from local mud...

Premium Member Anger Curtailed For Want of Breath
Diving deep, it was dark, cold and slimy.
Regulator dummy-splat gulps of air
    flowing free into lungs, bubbling blabs out.
I struggled with the mud core collector,

2014 done and dusted
I’ve welcomed in 2015
With a beer and a crayfish
Round a campfire with some friends

Cause I won’t keep what I promised
So I’ll just...

Seeing Earth as it was
An ask of mine needs urgent sating
I don’t mean to blashpeme or be rude
But when God was done and dusted creating
And he looked and saw that “it was good”
What was he looking at?

At first it appeared nothing was wrong,
But then one cartridge could be seen on the floor
Then more bullets were found scattered nearby
A horde of bullets in a wooden box shacked to the floor.

Premium Member Busted - the Human Levy
One world in a trillion
Where everything clicked
In a Goldilocks zone
Where a switch had been flicked

Busted
Perfection soon rusted
When late party crashers
Were grab it and smashers

For eons they blended
Their world complemented
Till fresh out of college 
With abundant...

So, the glistening aim noticeably passes by,
So, the dangerous motion formidably goes by,
So, the unknown one remains unknown for the time being,
So, one is ahead of the petty singing. 

The one and only is good-natured...

The sun she's goin' down, it's sinkin' so low,
I can feel that evening breeze start to blow.
Time for day's bright colors to wane and fade,
Bending all hues to black and blue in shade.

Sundown, oh sundown,...

The old year is now done and dusted
It has not been without its strifes.
Headlines of war, murder and much more
Daily we hear of terrible atrosities.

Peace seems a long way off
and Mankind not in the mood.

Through the swaying green net  
Of this years growth of hedge 
I’ve not got round to cutting yet.
Got to get my finger out 
Because I know it’s best 
To get it...

We all live in a world full of belief
Yet often with little understanding
And sciences too, deep at its roots
Religious compliance when it suits
Yet with a loyalty to the branding
And for some, can still offer...

White-veiled mountains can be a threat to all below,
But on the day the inviting piste, it's splendours!
