Short Dunno Poems

Motionless as time fleets, 
finding a purpose to grow, 
sewn my heart tight,
for too long,...

As I was walking in the snow,
I chanced to meet a cold rhino.
  It began to sneeze,
  Creating quite a breeze:
Now what to do? --I dunno....

 Ask yer mother for sixpence,
 to see the Jerry Giraffe,
freckles on his eyebrows,
 and big ones on his, Ask

I have gone and I’ve lost me girl Jane,
When she asked me for flowers again,
But she gave me the gong,
Dunno what I did wrong...
I brought her self-raising and plain....

Still going strong after all these years
Still got my faculties at least between the ears
How long? Dunno!
Maybe tomorrow, who knows!
Life has no guarantees, so far three cheers!...

My faithful friend from Boise, Idaho
Another so true, where to find one, I dunno
He talks a strange lingo
I think hard and then bingo
The “words” he creates make sense, well sorto...

Random Russell

confusion reigns,
says brain explain,
whatever is in notion,
expert knows,
not there goes,
Russells instigation,
arose....
seeds from thought plantation..

i dunno why that happened
you'd think that
would
possibly be a common
occurrence;
eggs are egg-shaped
for
the hen's benefit
round eggs? 
think 
about it... i 
did
when i was boiling 
the two eggs
that were already 
boiled...

Yeah, we had wavelengths that worked and that didn't

Good, bad, happy, sad, over the top slightly mad
all that stuff.

I eschewed butterflies
so did you and maybe we
should not have

tossed shoulds
tho
seems better to both of us
than embracing butterflies?

Dunno, do you?...

"father, can i be of help?"
"you go back to bed."

Mother Russia
       Father Time
       Uncle Sam's
       a friend of mine

       Chicken of the Sea
       Polar Bear
       Tropic of Cancer
       don't want to live there
 
       New York
       New Jersey
       Nova Scotia
       what's new in this poem
                     ~ I dunno...

Bananas be bruisin'
And I dunno why.
Bananas be bruisin'
They be covered in flies

Bananas used to be pretty cool,
They used to be yellow and stuff.
Bananas used to be pretty cool,
Now they just shriveled, the peel 
Rough

They brown, they yucky,
They ain't yellow like a ducky.
They sticky, they black,
Like a gangsta...

I cannot say. 
As you cannot say. 
Art.  Not art. 
Worthy work or working
on worthy. 
I cannot say. 
I do not know. 
And if I know; I know 
I do not know. 
(Cannot know?)
(Yet to know?)
{I dunno.}

Work.  Art. 
Where is Life?
I say Life is in the Query.
Life dies in the Quarrel. 

I cannot know. 
As you do not know. 

I do know, though - 

I feel....

So many voices keep telling me what to do,
As I strive to see the sky bright blue.
I sometimes wonder did god ever work so hard,
Or was it for him easy as gardening a backyard? 
I've fought my fight till now fair and wild, 
I've endured fights of old to a child.
I dunno where I might end up or where I belong,
Just hopes that it would turn up beautiful like this song....

Sometimes I just wanna set something on fire
I just wanna let it burn
Sitting around, waiting for the flame to get higher
For lessons to be learned.

Pyromancing illegal? Since when?
I dunno!
But it doesn't matter does it?
How much trouble can I get in?

Ofcourse it matters!
Why else would it be illegal?
I guess this is my lesson to be learned,
Find a better outlet for my aggression....

i had a real morbid day, harry.
i dunno what makes those nauseating thoughts come up.
utterly disgusting
and completely illogical.
no basis in reality.

i think i better think nicer thoughts,
like flowers
and clouds
and dewdrops
and picnics
and seashores,
and please extract the other two sea urchins from my left ear canal.

and harry, thanks for the swell job
on my right ear.

While I slept , the world kept turning 
I dunno why 
I just know it to be true 

Maybe tonight while I sleep it will stop and I will be carried off into a unknown destination 
A place where there is not more self hate 
Somewhere where my mind can stop asking questions I have no answer too

Maybe tonight I can find peace 

But until then 
The world will keep turning 
And I will keep wondering why...

there's a bloke i know, who keeps going on
about his bowels
but besides that, i am attempting a poem
which uses meter effectively
you know, so it has rhythm and stuff
and subtle 'feminines' at the end of iambic pentameter
so that it creates something
but i haven't got the time for this
like watching a peter jackson movie, sitting
there
in the cinema, thinking..."i've got stuff to be getting on with."...

Well wannabe coat fans, you'll be sad to hear I've not been interviewed by a single newspaper (not got a clue what I'm talking about? - join the line)

Although a man I didn't know in the lift and I hadn't glanced at said "if this was a first date, it's gone terribly" and I said "it would make terrible television" then he said "yep, wouldn't make the cut" and he went on his way down a different corridor.

Oh citrus, my mistress
Exquisite, delicious
Appealing, revealing
No zestier feeling
Acidic confections
Ascerbic dilections
So tangy, so tasty
The tart in a pastry
A scurvy elixir
A fine tonic mixer
Nutritious, sumptuous
Mouth-watering, scrumptious
Exquisite, delicious
Oh citrus, my mistress

----------

I don't think it is a McWhirtle, probably iambic trimeter? Dunno.
H/T to Robert Gorelick for "My Darling Lime"...

It's so refreshing to see
Someone else like me
I thought I'd never meet
Somebody like you
 You're not just anybody, are you?

You're my saviour
You're my star
To save me
 You'd have gone real far

Now it's time
Yeah its time to repay ya
 I dunno how but I'll find some way y'all

So keep chopping those verbs
No mincing of words        (except the silly swear words rules:)
Cos one bowl of soup
 Could feed the whole world....

Prison Earth,
 where the levels hurt,
Depending on your location,
Deeper do do, 
Afghanistan worse,
The prison’s of our creation.

What is this place,
in mouldering time,
where I see it not at all,
on the prison earth,
right from my birth,
a criminal oh so small.

will ya trip n fall,
on the bladder gall,
at the abbatoir,
dunno?!?

Get anudder job,
Be a bloody snob
Shut yer gob
yer hopeless so n so …
