Long Queuing up Poems

She smirked 
With a remarkable resemblance 
To Miranda Richardson 
Playing Elizabeth the First

Just as soon as I can bump off 
My new Sister-in-Law
Korporate Kate 
That two bit Sloan 
It shall be I who is 
Next...

We lay bare next to the skin of the earth
watching mercury dancing  around the restless sun
playing hide and seek in the burning heat
and penetrating mankind deception in the deep
Venus is orbiting the earth with...

It’s not just bricks and mortar
Nor a distant memory 
But the ground roots of our livelihood
And our future destiny. 

As this place prepares to close 
When the final bell will sound 
To mark the end...

I could sense something was wrong

So I went to see moving carefully among the trees, 

I saw a building of harsh stone

Unforgiving standing alone, 

I crept up with stealth to see through a small window

Hoping...

I can still remember years ago in the 80's
When the pubs were packed
You'd pay for your beer with Ten pounds and get change back
You could keep a girlfriend for more than two minutes
And knew their...

Six weeks in to this lockdown
People now are beginning to frown
Queuing up is now the norm
Hold on tight ride this storm

Complacency Could make you sick
Social distancing is the trick
Don't be fooled by the stats
It's like...

A walk to school out of the backdoor, through the homemade back gate, through a narrow alley,
Cars parked on the curb, guarded by paraffin lamps, no garages, no parking area,
Walking down my road, past the...

Tyson the Cat.

There was a cat, some years ago,
who liked to stand his ground.
Terriers, poodles, mongrels,
He'd fight that type of hound.

I'd watch as dogs raced up to him,
barking fit to bust,
he'd just turn to face...

GHETTO LIFE

I'm just a black guy trying to survive
I hustle hard, just for me to live
I was born and bred in the ghetto,
And the only place I could earn money is not only at the...

Soft,gentle and sweet all day,
You make me always want to pray,
For taught like yours no one can pay,
You are nothing but my Cauliflower.

Everybody queuing up to see your face,
But i will never let them touch...

Some say there are aliens living on the frontiers of space
Who've traveled beyond the boundaries of the known universe
Gotten very near the gates of heaven, spoken face to face

With God in their extraordinary tongue, engaged...

Ink wells drying out,books march to their graves.
Stationary evolving like cavemen in caves.
Bibles on websites,there's no longer books of prayer.
Electronic revolution's just too much to bear.

Handwritten letters,that were sealed with a kiss.
Signing your name on...

In the parking lot of the DMV
I watch the privileged
and the not so,
come and go.

They come in "Beemers"
and rattle clank clunkers,
desperate to join,

the lemming like hordes
of autos.

So it goes from 8 to 5, 
tentative...

When the dead become insane
The tramps the down, the ill-arranged
The junkies burning over flames
The fools who couldn’t be renamed
Where do they go to shoot the light
Eat the bread
Kill the night
The times are changing
Tells you on...

Let’s take the bold step and queue in courage
with the hope we will all smile again.
The law frowns when mandates are joked with
and rights subjected to a deep sleep
depriving the nation of its precious needs

Walking down the isle
I see stars of gold
Blinking with purity
The fall straight from the sky,
Bird sings of you
Men prays with you,
Queuing up expectations
Ready to possess my possession,
Crazy stories of falling stars
My lip tells sweet tales.
Looking...
