library

the books
standing
orderly
in their
shelves,
each with
their own
identity,
each day
some travel,
but come
morning,
they are
all
once again
quiet and
at home.

politics can be awful if things don’t

crime classics, and for breakfast,
I’d suggest, hot buttered crumpets       ..

where he went

pickwick papers
over the
cracks
open
a bottle of scotch
and sits back
to relax
on a coach
down to
kent

Workplace Lunchtime, a Haiku

Eating tangy sweets.
Reading Agatha Christie.
A half hour's joy.

loved the “just william” books

if I’d been in the outlaws I’d have been douglas or henry, rather than william, or ginger, because, put quite simply, I was never a leader   ..

Old Library Books

Sometimes even the most cherished
become something time has perished,
so next time you want a quick look
blow the dust off an old library book.

If I Have A Junk Drawer

I don't
know if I
have a
junk drawer. But if
I do, it would be
filled with a bunch of
vintage
comic books
I have.

One and Done

Writers are not very interesting.
There’ll always be another one.
What’s important is what they make,
what in their mediocrity’s been done.

as if it were my study

pubs are more about
afternoon drinking quietly
reading a book than
exuberant nights out for
me these days I prefer
just to sip here and look  ..
