Once a whale
...Once a whale spent a day at the beach,
eating one too many pies of peach.
Became bloated in the sun,
to a weight over a tonne,
now has an itch she can't bend to reach...

Black Dog Catcher
...What is the purpose of life?
Can't even keep your wife!
Then there's holding a job.
Are you really that much of a kxxb
Life is surely about family
Why can't it be for me
Am I that screwed up?...

The Wardrobe
...She had a bit of a problem
Of which she was reluctant to disclose
Her wardrobe was full to overflowing
With a wild array of clothes
She justified this behaviour
By insisting it was cheap stuff...

Sonny Son
...Title: Sonny Son
The school bell rang
Kids came pouring out
I couldn’t see my son
He wasn’t there
Nor was he about
He was up in the sky
So high & so free
Yet to be born
But has other place...

I'M Your Bar Stool
...I see we are open again.
It’s time to welcome old friends.
The homely, the lonely,
they who want only

The people I bear are so glad.
The stories ...

Starved To Death
...My truck is almost full
of birds , that have risked
their last migration
for a journey to the planet mercury.
So fell from the sky
a ton of fried chickens.
I won't have to swing my fork

Shipmate
...In a 40 tonne steal vessel
You'd think your safe
But the waves are hassle
Higher than the empire state
Tossing us around,
Like a childs play thing
Up high then suddenly down
Left to right li...

Tea
...Getting of a London bus
On a sweltering day in June
Trying not to swear or cuss -
I knew I’d be home soon.
The shopping bags were heavy
They seemed to weigh a tonne,
But I knew this was t...

Men Bleed a River Before They Cry
...A knife stab on a man
Hurts as much on a kid
He has to remain mum
A brave face to cede
A woman on his side, on the other a son
Two souls to shield, emotions never freed
He has strength to...

Happy New Year
...Happy New Year, it’s time to fly,
Get together with others, chime,
Collect yourself and inwards cry,
Scream n’ shout at New Year’s time,
Pull down the old if need be,
Flare and dance, temper t...

In a tinderbox wrapped up by an askant beldam’s hand
Above an unmarked grave that is welcoming, rather kind
A pair of eyes noticed a hue in the dunes...

Endless
...Our eyes can’t hide
What a smile tries to cover inside
We drop to our knees to beg
On our knees we fall to wed
When you lose someone
Your half is gone, a burden comes worth a tonne
In the face ...
