A Turn Of The Screw
There is no historical evidence
Of Archimedes
Second screw
But it has been suggested
Namely by me
That his second lover
Found Archimedes
To be quite smelly
And that her parting words
Were
You reeka!

A Fine Show
I am that lone bird
Floating on the breezes
In an ever darkening sky
The rippling ocean
Comes to life
Dashing it's heaving waters
Against the pebbled shoreline
I see the storm arriving
As i seek shelter
In the caves by the castle ruins
And just as i enter
A flash of lightning
Arcs across the night sky
I see other birds
Their heads down
Awaiting the storms end
The roar of the ocean
Along with the thunder, and lightning
Pierces the inner sanctum of the cave
Eventually, the tempest begins to ease ...

Obliqua Eureka!
I once heard
Don't think me absurd
That Archimedes
Was once propositioned
When he was offered
In any position
A screw
Apparently
It was not only his water levels
That rose on that day
With much of a todo!

The Seagull Connoisseur
There once was a seagull
of Hastings
Had no time
for time wastings
When tourists
were about
He let out
a seagull shout
Then steal their food
for nice tastings!

Bamoon!
There once was an old man
of the moon
Who behaved as a bit
of a loon
One day
when full
He'd give a
werewolf call
But sounded more like
a baboon!

Formalde Hyde
Doctor Jeckyle
Once fully transmogrified
Into Hyde
Ventured into wedlock
(so i heard, or perhaps imagined)
And within a space
Of just two years
Mrs Hyde
Gave birth to a healthy baby girl
They, Mister, and Mrs Hyde
Named her Formalde
And despite of
And maybe because of
Formalde's interest in pickled things
Caused her to develop a problem
With a particularly pungent wind
Her persona was as grey
As the clothes she wore
She developed an interest
In pickling food
But later preserving things
She...

The Killer On The Loose Is-Real
I punched a wall
And hurt my hand
I felt like a fool
Because i cant understand
I also shed tears
Of a salty brine
About the genocide
In Palestine
And that our government
Gives licences to sell arms
To another country
That have no qualms
About bombing the starving
All the innocent , at will
As Benjamin Netanyahu
Goes in for the kill

Has Tings!
Hastings has tings, oh yeah
Cliff railways, a castle ruin,and plenty of sea air
Great music, poetry, and a myriad of arts
Lots of twittens, and alleys, short cuts to other parts
Green men, mermaids, and pirates galore
Little boats a'bobbing, close to the shore
Seabirds aplenty, floating in the sky
Ponds in parks, wherein live the dragonfly
Behind the old bowling green in Alexander Park
Within the pond reeds, dragonflies sky lark
Hastings has tings, that tickle and tease
A shimmering moonlight, afloat on the seas
And skies at sunset,...

Poseur
I wonder if naturists
See me as a nudity prostitute
As i'm paid
For being naked
In front of a small throng
Of budding artists
Like a life modelling gangbang
I remain chaste
Rather than chased
No fun, or frolics
Just hard core posing
For hard cash
For my two hour flash dash
I'm a conducter
Of an orchestra
Of a myriad palettes
Paintbrushes, pencils, pens, and pastels
Connect with lily white paper
Leaky interpretations
Of me!
I have about thirty of them
Adorning my hall wall
They could...

Triple Twenty
No-one knew
Or possibly didn't care
Or wonder
Why this particular dragonfly
Had no tail, or much body
And that's why
It had no control
On how it could fly
Oft seen
Crashing into trees, hedges,
And other dragonflies
Who often mistook this dragonfly
As a helicopter seed
As it crashed chaotically to the ground
This was not good for the dragonflies' morale
He soon took to wearing
A false torso
Which kind of gave him better balance
And in time
Was able to fly again
Although he came to a tragic end ...

Mooning
A very hairy furry fairy
With a beard of solid gold
Noticed one day, that the moon was 'flashing'
And looking very bold
So the very hairy furry fairy
Fell into a silent swoon
Promptly boarding a unicorn with a silver horn
Then flew up to the moon
The full moon, was naughtily mooning
Mimicking Uranus of old
Lost within its own madness
Of which it was oft foretold
The fairy soon, dressed the moon
Using its beard of gold
Covering all the moons naughty parts
Now no longer to behold
The moon...
