Odds Bodkins
   stupid saying
    donkey braying ~
  or someone praying 

  'Tis not for me 
    to judge my fellow
  All I know's ~
    'Tis a mighty bellow

Lifts and Lorries

We cowboys on this side of the pond
  Get out of bed with boots and spurs on
To ride our bucking bronco golden stallions
  As you mount your nags on the weak side of the ocean

Yes, we snicker as you call elevators 'lifts'
  And your truckers call a semi a 'lorry'
But daring to call a cop or a smokey a 'bobby' ~
  Odds bodkins, bloke! Please say that you're sorry!

The Hyperprosexia of the Solipsist

Eureka! I think I have found the meaning!
Thank God! Because it's so late in the evening

Criminy! I just forgot what I was thinking
Odds and Bodkins! If I only had an inkling

Holy Cow! What an awesome revelation!
After so much prayer and supplication

Jumping Jehoshaphat! It's gone again
I was almost enlightened; about to transcend

Damn this transitory satori, damn this fleeting glance
Arms akimbo while I stand in reverie and trance

I can't grasp it long enough for it to take hold
Manifold instances and myriad thresholds 

Gazing into the ether and staring into quintessence
The Prototype welcomes me into The Presence

There is a radiance I can't see the start or the end of
The only thing said to me was a transmogrifying "Love."
