Teachers

They taught
and made claims they helped dyslexics
Mr Cavalry was one such
and Mr Depieu was rumoured to have taught in a French Colony
Time will discreetly raze their self sacrifice
Headteacher Tuffnell on BBC Panorama
Listen to the ear to gain insight
and to your Reproduction lessons
of eternal rabbits multiplying 
Of November poppy's
representational gallantry,
and who loved the Stones over the Beatles
and of CSE's
your perfect social class strata
And Mr Tom Dodds your eternal
teddy boy arts teacher

NOTE:THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE   using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and responds thus making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon unique to the moment& changing according to mood is inherently variable.

SIGNIFICANCE

eruptions

the
eye

completely different

steers

different
 interpretation
with
 no straightforward
reading
thereby
enhancing
the value enhancing
 of patience

operates

beneath

the boundary between

A Quock Is Not a Quack Nor a Quintessential Quarterback

Quickly quickly now quack quack quock" said the rook on a rock by the dock at six o clock. But no rock ever did tock so no quock could be audible now could it? Who on earth has really ever heard a quocking sound? Well one should visit in the rainy season. Coughs do not sound like a standard quack. They sound like a quock. And a quock is not a quake and a quake is not quivering, quarterising, nor is it a quintessential quartet. A kilo of a viola is akin to a shy trumpet. And an eskimo dressed in a tank top could roll down a grassy slope quicker than a jar of collected pennies. Dare to jump over a kerb? Wrestle with a set of giant keys? Well firstly one must jump over a train, a plane, and mind the rain. Hahaha rhyming is dining out today. Hahaha the wristwatch is swapping colours for a mild dews formation. Hahaha compiled cards comes cantering cheerily. And a hexagonal xylophone delivers a representational speech. Xxxxx restorations z z z z z at forty five dips to fifteen tacos.

Oh Reaching a Net Then

A bluebell hole is often representational of a pistol glove. Pistol gloves are often pointing out towards petals bit metallic oysters can spin rapidly out of a firing chamber and firing chambers are neither chatty canopies nor copied cactus chants. Chanting cacti cacti cacti can cause chaos but chapters of chaotic cow clips are the flipside occurrence of an occurred octagonal oversized otter. Otters trot at very high speeds so one could make a train then hoop over the hopscotch patterns of desert landscape like a roller skating party of giant antelopes. Wow. Reach no risk and risk no right run. Ring then. Go on ring. Tales more than a tubular turtle to fit the key in a net. Ha the bell is chiming faster now than the clock tower. Ha the Belgian bun is playing croquet today. *** fictional frog jumping. Xxxx solarisations z z z z z z at forty three bites past sixteen cute passing prawns with pointy ears. Dangly earrings. Winged whales. Wooden woo hoo. Z

A Mist Over a Plate Does Require Cleaning Asap

A mediocre mealworm was sat on a hill eating a sandwich and drinking some tea when along came an elongated machine with a red face and elastic eel ears which pinged and ponged. The mealworm was confused. Surely not here he thought. It only occurs elsewhere. But elsewhere is neither even, exact or existential. It is to be said that the tunnel the meal worm then dug spread out under ground for several acres. No screws were needed. Just dig dig dig. In fog in sun in snow in hail basically all weathers. Now safe to sip homemade barcadi which had steeped in preparation for this day. Turboprop opera drowned out the booming from above. And the little dove sang sweetly as he supped his well deserved beverage. Feral fragrance frankly feels funnily fished. And after such a hard days work of sitting on that hill the mealworm could laugh and laugh at the chaos above safe in his chambers and surrounded by female earthworms in their bikinis. No ha no x and no z. Representational

ABSTRACTION

The black stripe
With crossing red slashes
Is not a chocolate cookie

These are paint strokes
Put on paper
Representational things – perhaps

But are they words?
Given aura
This could make them so

A thousand word poem
These strokes
But no chocolate cookie

Dave Austin

Representational Task

enter stage left the successful politian
with more moves than a bird chased crow
speaking in glowing terms of limited taxation
with his projective protective representation

I close my eyes to see him standing speaking
to cold Valley Forge's traitorious rebels
oh that every rep and senator be required
to speak on such a bloody pulpit

Three Cheers for King George
The Mad Englishman wants it all and Honestly states it
There are here woods enough to hide in and be free
Rather there than stand and fight for thee
Whoever let you be?
