Long Pensioners Poems

You have transformed into a mysterious beacon,
Shining in the night,
Invading my heart with embassies of thoughts,
Consulates of feelings and representations of burning longing,
Today, on the highway of my dreams,
Your green...

VULNERABLE

Being of a certain age and classed as vulnerable,
The Government decreed that I should stay indoors.

That I should get outside more and get some exercise.
I downsized, also doctor’s...

The country of my birth. Beautiful in youth. Wrinkled as the years pass by. Through no fault of hers. But by the doing and undoing of her children, consciously and unconsciously.
Blessed by God. Impoverished...

I sit here 
In a place where I have no fear 
Will there be another score? 
Does the crowd want more?

While Arsenal should not want to stop 
The cheery contingent...

Acting chivalry needing to defend 
Thackray who never was

They’re playing bingo in the lounge bar,
between ten and dinner time,
pensioners arrive from near and far,

Somewhere in the dungeon of my soul 
was a memory I supressed,

A FLOWER FOR THE FUTURE

In 1964 a wall went up between
East and West Berlin!
What a barrier of shame, 
What a humanitarian sin,
During the 28 years until 
November 1989, over eighty 
People tried to escape over

You shoot at people as if they were paper targets
Not caring who you kill, maim or injure
Your outrage has been well planned
Not a single bit went wrong
You serviced your guns
Collected hundreds of bullets

At the half time stop 
But it was M U

Treasure to treasure which even Judas Iscariot
The disciple’s Treasure cannot measure
And treasure with pleasure.

They victimize and they seize with impunity
And dishonour students’ union leader’s...

Buildings made of ivory stones, ruby shingles full of devotion
Clock tower of rosette bricks, stand proudly in the centre
Chimneys bellow wooden aromas, furnaces release fireflies ember
Trees...

The ticking time, hot tea, a short fun time.
Thus Rachel wrote a poem to search a mate,
Then replies start, some shy, some asked to date.

Buzz was getting ready to tell 
Information that were facts 
Making people pack 
Since they got sacked 
When the canary entered the hive 
Already dungeon arrested in his dive 
Worker bees...

There are two groups who must switch around

To nursing homes the criminals must move
The old folks to prison their lot to improve
