Long Ker Poems

LOST IN BRITAIN

Poling, Patching, Nether Wallop, 
Matching Tye and Droop

Plumpton, Lickfold, Puddletown, 
Westward Ho! and Throop.

Hole of Horcum, New Invention,
Boghead, Frome, Cat's Ash

North Piddle, Staines and Pen*stone,
Wash Dyke, East Breast and Flash.

Six Mile Bottom, Mudford...

I had a Dream with Dragon in it, yes, just this morning, yes, today!
And the Dreams that linger, that I recall, are usually bad, I’m wont to say… 
Haven't seen 'Day of The Trifids' in...

I felt aggravation when the mouse trap didn’t work well.
That darn mouse got the peanut butter then he quickly fell
onto a sequence of old soda cans I left under the smelly sink, 
life can be...

Nattie and Thomas had left home
In search of the magic Portal,
And there find: Vilenist, a song,
Faerie dust--to save the mortals.

"There it is, Nattie! I can see it!"
Screamed Thomas with so much delight,
Not seeing the stream,...

behind thin dark clouds.  A frog croaks and after awhile a cricket answers. A soft ker-plunk 
echoes...

"The satirist Menippean ad hominems attacks,
not pri*ks or any ret*rd making such who Reason lacks."

Yes, I know, I should be alongside.
Age and bad knees 
dictate that I am inside the cab
with a long, green leash
so Katie can run close by
every morning, 
for the last seven years
in rain, snow and...

I truly can't believe what I am really seeing.
In the shadow darkness is there a shadowed being.
Open my eyes as wide as can be, to illuminate the night. 
Questioning my wavered sanity, which brings up...

My speech was all out of sequence, my catch phrase for it was ‘mad gab’
I kept saying balderdash like apples to apples my brain was  a scrabble!  
Also I was hearing things in...

On a polka-dotted day, at the Plott's house down the block,
Mama Plott was plotting where to place her dandy cuckoo clock
The handy, cuckoo clock,... took a spot right on the shelf
and proudly perched, profoundly, next...

It seems the ring so sparkly, caught the eye
of some observer, stopping in to talk
the time I took to pray, no more a balk
about God's reason, yet I knew the walk!

The ring was gone ~...

Coffee for One 

You greet as you serve
My refreshment and stuff
Sometimes we chat
But your smile is enough 

I'm not sure you know
As you dutifully grind
How this moment is special 
Even just in my mind 

It's...

You've stopped by to play with me,how nice.
Some say LIFE's not a game but I say otherwise.

Start a different and clear.
Don't cry if I tend to...

The Swan King.

Fine fibre lashes flicker, flutter.
Sailing trance-like on warm reflected glass,
Royal icing sculpture, still Lily-White feathers.
Ripples giggling, Dragon Flies dipping,
Sticklebacks cha-cha clumsily within own shadows.
as pulsing circles steady...peaceful.
Lilac Water-lilies whirl-curl open,
as perfumes whoosh! Midges...

The words written in the past are gone
Nobody will ever read those words
Some would have struck a nerve
Some might have thrown u 4 a curve
My words were knowingly spelled wrong
But they all came from the...

In skies of gray I dwell
inside of clouds,
keeping company with mugginess
and sweltering heat.

People who labor underneath me
perspire profusely; some curse.
Others pray for me
to cut their labor short.

Yes, they pray for rain.
I hear their cries,
for I’ve...

Walking in your shadow
No one can see 
The face of an angel 
Let me be free

In a world full of pain 
You hide it so well 
Cover my mouth 
And keep me in hell

School ends with screams of jubilance,
laughing carelessly as the ski boat is 
readied for a splash in the nearby lake.
Spinning reels whizz as they are hurled
into thick underbrush at water’s edge,
trying for the big bass...

I thought I saw a nasty cat!
I did. Oh fancy that! 
Sylvester I must tell you,
You're a very naughty cat!
I also have to say
That you are terrible at maths!
You miscalculate your aims
That's why you fall...
