Premium Member Towns Folks Are the Target

There's many subjects near and dear to my heart But none so dear as blowing farts off a cart On our way to the market Towns folks are the targets They're not even safe in the underground car park © Jack Ellison 2015

Premium Member The Shopping Trolley


Early morning 
and it is still dark.
An abandoned 
shopping trolley stands alone
in the centre of the car park.
I take pity and return it back
to its home and the company
of its own kind where it
rejoins the others 
in their long coitus line.

Premium Member Pretty In Pink

Are you still here? Bullfrog? Is that really your bit?
Come on cupcake, you need to polish up your wit.
Do you shave your head or did it just all fall out?
Your poor little seed didn’t get to far past sprout.

Writer’s block for almost two years.
Wow, it would appear you had a few too many beers.
To much time in the car park, I think.
But bless your heart sweetie you do look pretty in pink.

Crossing Your Path

I saw you were  seating  in the car park
In the wooden chair, no one I saw there
And you expected no one there by heart 
But I crossed your path by a similar idea
We met unexpectedly in a place called "park" 

Since all rooms were taken by busy hearts
And all the streets were filled with running cars
We are  forced to park here, the place we share 
Could this meeting up last for thousands of years?

BENIN MOTEL, FRIDAY

Car park in the blanket of darkness.  
Highlife fights the night.  
Felix checks time.   
“Twenty-three girls now,” he says.  
Between eighteen and twenty-five, good.
Oseh pockets phone.
“Seven more. Thirty will do.”  
Die-hard girls to convince the scared.  
“Well-protected on this journey,”  
Felix lies, or believes.  
Motel lights hide trafficking.  
John’s house is one prison.  
This car park is the next.


Grocery Woes

As so many shoppers consistently doing all manner of wrong fail to return their trolleys from whence they came to where they belong it really irks when I leave work drive my hybrid to the supermarket circle the car park for what seems hours and can't find a place to park it the question may seem odd to some and yet I have to ask it why don't those self-same lazy people do to it what they'd do with a shopping basket

Premium Member Keyboard Tough

Keyboard tough, back to the pub.
A parking lot scanned, looks for a rub.
Boastful and strong, I’m sure indeed.
He’s probably only five foot three.

A complex known to little men.
Very seldom does he even pen.
He makes his claim throughout the land.
Intimidated by the real life man.

I would stand up my brother, for even you.
You should pay a visit, let’s have a brew.
I know you’re partial to the car park ride.
I’m already married, so we’ll just stay inside.

The Red Lion

Apart from the worn stone-step
where drunks still topple,
or the hand-painted sign,
all has changed,
now a neon glow backlights a plasticized fascia,
all ‘local color’ painted over.

In the car park,
two frizzy blondes face off,
The smaller has plastic bangles,
she rattles like a Zulu warrior,
fingers stab through cusswords.
Youths shout
over the clomping-thump
of their car radios.

"I used to come here often"
I explain to my incredulous wife.

"Good times."

Tell

TELL

Alternative worldview as I sit on my throne, 
trolleys in the car park only purpose to exist. 
Tell me what is it like to be a pond? 
See a mirror in your smooth serene exterior, 
are you reeling inside under the surface like me? 
Danger of drying up in summer stagnant stinking water. 
Frozen solid two seasons later hard as stone. 
Are you me or am I you?
Fake personality, make believe, make up to hide 
what it’s all about. Smoke and mirrors conquer naked truth, any day.
