Get i right or
don't do it at all
stand straight up
bounce back when you fall
keep your eyes on the 
prize
go for what you know
regcogize your
obstacles
let everyone know
Twelve hocks
thre gallons of broth
some potatoes
4 large cabbages
mans
that some good eating!...

We are the withdrawal
on  a dappled day
White Vultures Swarm
bone dry is the day,
Now our lives are hasten
We are cheek by Jowl
Giant lies interlude
Secret tunes of cabbages and Kings 
burgled routes to strawn away
In the last peek of love
A giant hope glistens to espy...

Don’t plant cabbages near your buddleia bush
Not unless you want cabbages turned into mush
The butterflies love buddleia but they love cabbages too
And the baby caterpillars won’t want to share them with you
So take my advice and plant cabbages well away
Then you will have some leaves for your dinner today

Justify my words
As I cater to my life
Something all around me hurts
Must be the candle light
The spelling of relief
Has ingrown toe-nails
And yes cabbages don't have feet
I often eat chocolate covered snails
Then I place it in the Holy Grail
How can I read
When I can't see
I've been blind since 1923

Some say the law is the law
What else would it be?
Some say babies come from storks
From under the leaves of cabbages
Are they sure of their facts?
Cabbages are not very pretty
I've never seen them turn heads
To turn over a new lease on life
Don't turn over that next leaf 
Leave it for the farmer
They say sex is sex whatever that means
The farmer's daughter is even better...

Cabbages are wonderful to taste and see
                          Multi-colored look, various recipe
                     Green, maroon, yellow, purple and white,
                                 Love to get you always
                            At breakfast, lunch and dinner
                                    You’re the wrapper
                                         Refresher!...

cook stones and  add spices
it produces soup
cook grasshoppers and add spices
it produces soup
cook meat and add spices
it produces soup
cook caterpillars and add spices
it produces soup
cook cabbages and add spices
it produces soup
but then which soup of all
is most delicious?
if one prefers stone or caterpillar soup
as the best and most delicious
must one enforce it 
as the compulsory sauce for all?...

Mornings are littered
with gnawed husks,
charred mouse-tails. 

March is burning its strew.
The limbless
braid a thawing earth
into knotty threads.

On wet lines flannel shirts 
poach in a warming smaze. 
while gust-hogs 
still attack the hedgerows.

In coddled kitchens
muggy boiled cabbages
envelope 
a pottage of sky.

Stubby snuffles 
herald undertows 
of new marrow.

April paddles in
with wet crumbs 
and buttercups....

it is good
and he's got imaginary games of cricket
being played in his head
he tells me the score
and what the pitch is like
in his head

in an attempt to find that innocence again
i started doing the same
so that when i'm at work
i'm not really there
but on that cricket pitch
in my head

i told my friend about it
he told me about how he met his wife
at a single's night
to his surprise
as he thought she was at home
looking after the kids...

Rolling hills, verdant meadows
Acres lined in evergreens
Brightly coloured maples, flaunting 
Clad in yellows, reds, tangerines
Farmer's fields, neat and freshly-cut
Straw sheaves, twined and baled
Hardy mums, tall grasses, purple cabbages and kale
Cornstalks, and sturdy, weathered mats
Dress and welcome entrance ways
Pumpkins, gourds and sunflowers adorn
Stacked upon rustic wooden crates
The beauty of the season is upon us
Happy Fall Y'all!
