POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
writing poetry doesn't make me a poet, who hasn't written poetry at some time or other...
so in your haste for the city ..
were I a town, I would be
a ghost town,
left to rot, I would be the home town
you forgot ..

love that she never asks why ..
buy a donkey off a bloke in the pub
take it home
she's says, "so where are we going to keep it .."
I say so we're going to keep it .. ?

foolish times ..
I am a fool, out of
tune with the times,
like an old piano which rarely
gets played ..
which is something,
I guess, being not played
for a fool ..

I don't read people ..
I read books better than I read people.
I don't read people.
you can't place people back on the shelf,
pulling out another when you're
bored with the first.
you can't treat people like books.

the city is a time, not a place ..
a strange old man, who can
still recall
the peasant's revolt,
the great fire of sixteen sixty six -
the blitz,
swinging london -
the rolling stones greatest hits ..

non internet café ..
there is something about
taking a pie
out of the oven
placing it on a plate
cutting into it
with a knife
watching the steak and the gravy
as it oozes out
adding the worcester sauce
and the salt
and the pepper
preparatory to taking that first bite
that you just can't get
on the web or
anywhere else except (accept)
real life ..

the weather forecast
is for yet another cold week,
which I am personally against, but

erotic poetry
if I wanted something erotic
I doubt I'd immediately consider a poem
to be the initial go to device
I'd read verlaine
and his femmes/hombres
I was mildly intrigued
but then again I have to say
it did not leave one on one's knees ..
