The Secret Lives of Chimney Pots V
Spawned from the loins that 
Perpetuated the loyal serfs mongrel
Seed:-
These peoples of a conditioned and

And vague promises unmade.
Gregariously living out their lives

Melodies
I’ve been hearing melodies
You’re always chiming when you lie
And your muffling is on repeat
Repeat, repeat

And when you’re gone I feel redundant
Repeat, repeat.

Entrapping at night
Feeling right
And now you inveigling is on repeat
like the fortnightly purge
I'm dancing...

Library Girl
Library Girl 
She worked in the local library part time. 
And liked to read Harry Potter books. 
She liked a lad who popped in fortnightly.

Ache shall never cease. This world a bulky box which
Parcels items of tears and fears in multitude thereof
And a few parcels of love and joy we all...

Corruption 

I like winter evenings in Portugal
lit wood fire 
my wife prepares the evening meal
On my way home one evening
 a police officer stopped me 
something about my headlight
I thought of offering him a bribe

A Saturday Morning Suburban Lament
Oh, from what demented mind was born
A thing so pointless as a lawn?

Surely some old eccentric lord
In a mansion, born both rich and barmy,
Who could so lavishly afford
A mighty artful minion army
Of sowers of seed...

A fur Stole 

The big dog that was run down on the main road,
five month ago and thrown into the grass verge, is 
still there only now it looks like a dusty stole flung

The Benefits of Being Single

It really is quite freaky,
