The Virus
it came, it saw, it conquered
this nasty little virus
caught the whole planet off-guard
destroying life
as it was increasing its own
sweeping across this beautiful planet
breeding, and multiplying
in the process
destroying other life, as well as its own
so that it could live, and prosper
Homo Sapien

today 28th april 2020
i find myself drifting off to night tracks radio 3 at 11pm most nights, normally a tranquil place. a place to escape this confinement and isolation.though i like when i look out the window, and all i see, is a squirrel wandering down the middle of the road, and my daily walk to the big red post box today, all the lush moist colour of nature, and the beautiful birdsong all around me, it was truly gorgeous, and just for a few magical moments, i was in a land of enchantment, and would of been very happy to drift off to the land of fae. sweet dreams 💕🦋💕

The Case Of The Woman With A Dressy Digit (Sonnet)
Hi, my name is Daphne Adcock
Formerly of Little Snoring, in Norfolk
One day discovered,whilst at play
Realised i was Lesbian, with nothing to say
Finding my life so very boring
Decided to remove myself from Little Snoring
Realising that i needed a plan
As i still had the parts, of a man
To conform to requirements, and all the legits
I had to remove my Dressy Digit
Wanting to keep all my fingers and toes
We can all guess, how this story goes
As twenty-one digits was one over the top
So went into hospital, for the op!

My life as a recluse
serves little use
and is maybe an excuse
to hide away
can't face-time or skype
haven't the skills for that kind of hype
i'm not a techno type
my life is disarray
i can say hello, and hi
to help me get by
but my laptop is shy
of open display
so i don't see live voices
i haven't got those choices
i here no people noises
just silence throughout the day
radio and tv channels
are like wet flannels
inane quiz shows and panels
to keep loneliness...

A Strange Tale, And An Even Stranger Tail!
A Strange Tale, And An Even Stranger Tail!
in a land
far far far away
lived a little tiny, incey wincey
hoojamawatchamacallitthingamybob
that spent all day
prancing
to scared of heights
to climb trees
and burrowing down holes
gave him the heebeejeebees
and when out walking in rough grass
worried about tripping over clods and such like
he couldn't swim, or paddle
so was scared of the sea
even though he lived inland
he refused to fly
even though he had wings
as was terrified of heights...

The Unwanted Guest
A wild withering willowing wind
In shadowed sadness, sorrowfully screamed
For it carried a corruptive contagion
Borne upon the wings, of its every breath
It preyed, mostly upon ancient ones
Worn and fragile, with fragmented dreams
Like broken strings, of an Aeolian Harp
Silent echoes, from hollow shells
This malicious malignant mutant
Has stolen the breath of the vulnerable
As it violates the inner sanctum
Of those with least resistance
In shadowed sadness, sorrowfully screamed
For it carried a corruptive contagion
Borne upon the wings, of its every breath
It preyed, mostly upon ancient ones
Worn and fragile, with fragmented dreams
Like broken strings, of an Aeolian Harp
Silent echoes, from hollow shells
This malicious malignant mutant
Has stolen the breath of the vulnerable
As it violates the inner sanctum
Of those with least resistance

a life on the ocean waves
many moons ago, when i was 19 years old, going on 132! i joined the merchant navy. i was placed as a deckhand on a small dutch coaster called the Doreen B, it was an old rust-bucket of a ship, and when fully laden came in at about 350 tonnes. my first trip from Rye Harbour was to Cologne, Germany. a few hours before leaving, i went for a few drinks with my girlfriend, and quaffed a large quantity of vodka for some dutch courage. i went to the ship, was shown my cabin, and told to always remember to keep the porthole closed (that's another story) within half an hour, we were underway. i was...

Clouds
Clouds
it was a bright Spring day
and a clear sky
apart from two white clouds
which were floating along
on a gentle breeze
one of them, spoke to the other
"have you noticed
that since those metal birds
aren't flying around so much
that the air feels a bit cleaner?"
"yes
do you think they've migrated?"
"no idea, but it's kind of strange
the sky seems kind of empty"
meanwhile
back on Earth
a mother was looking up to the sky
through her window
and called over to her young daughter

alien encounter
last night, well in the early hours of this morning, i was abducted by aliens and taken to an unknown by me, a different part of the universe, a strange and fanciful place. they communicated with me by the means of telepathy (the ultimate experience of voices in the head!) i spoke out " if you're going to anally probe me, can i at least go to the loo first, i'm absolutely bursting for a pee!" they looked puzzled, and said nothing, but one of them led me to an alien toilet. i passed water, and a bit of wind! (something to tell my grandchildren that i farted in a ufo) but nothing else!. it was...

Hope...
Hope...
I wandered lonely as a cloud
as silver globules
rained down from my eyes
clouded, and shrouded
like darkening shadows
the dewdrops, like pearls
ran down my cheeks
and brushed over my lips
like a watery kiss
i savoured the saline sadness
as i drifted even further
into distant memories
a catalyst
of broken dreams
i then wept again
with a pirouetting pity
with the futility
of my past existence
yet beneath this furrowed brow
lies a flickering flame of hope
that i will brush away ...
