knowing who wore warm
kilts where
was why knots were
wound wardrobes
knitted warmest when waistcoat
kind was
woven wool keeping watchmen
warriors waiting
kindly while watching washroom
kings wither while wine
knocked wisdoms went waste
stan sand
Clutching a sapling
no port in the storm
Torn from its moorings
No hope to keep warm
A waif of a girl
wrapped in shawl and waistcoat
She’d not survive long
her voice stuck in her throat…
When the blizzard abated
she was found frozen stiff
buried alive ‘neath a snowmound
Mother Nature not a finger did lift
Mardi gras Allie from New Orleans
Flipped his tail and showed his greens
the decorator was thrilled and dressed him up
in purple waistcoat, so he could go to sup
at a genteel lady’s house, her name was Kat
He wore a flower in his lapel and a tall top hat
He is debonair and handsome too, she bragged
Her compliments for Allie never lagged
this could not be Alice’s white rabbit surely
He was decorated from long ears to hoppity knee
wearing a brocade vest and a fancy waistcoat too
He is perfect, said my cousin, a child named Sue
This rabbit had a little night bell he held in his paw
He had a magic scroll, and an ink pen to draw
His pocket watch was ornate, his hearts were grand.
It was as if he had come out of a magical land.
Not so many years ago
I revelled in rebellion,
Derided seniors
In sportsmobiles,
Comfortable bellies on
Wheels. Waistcoat
Fillers. Surreptitious
Pint spillers.
But now I sit and scoff
At youth and all its
Awkward agonising
Over lack of truth.
Merrily I mow the lawn
And curse because I
Can't get my wellies on.
And my wife orders me
To buy a larger pair.
And I cry 'No!' and
She groans and I ignore
Her as I turn the telly on
And I revel in my rebellion.
