Ugly Babies Make Wonderful Stories
One day a dog bit the index finger of his master
the dog ran off with a bloody finger,
before the master could catch him
The dog came to a river and went onto a wooden dock
the dog looked down into the water
he saw another dog with a bloody finger and a shadow of a man behind him
the dog had no idea what he was seeing
The master grabbed the dog by the collar,
wrestled with the dog for several minutes
the dog dropped the finger out of his mouth
the master picked up his mangled, chewed up index finger,
and went back home
...

too much tea and toast
sunday lunch is problematical,
I rise late and have a late
breakfast, I don’t want lunch, but then
I’ve always loved a good roast

Growing Your Own
I popped down to the meaty tree
to pick myself a steak
on the way I waved at cows
busy surfing by the lake
Since the foodie revolution
they haven't much to do
They'd like to learn a language
but their only word is moo
All the butcher shops have vanished
queues for lamb chops are no more
and if your crave is sausages
they grow up through the floor
When you're aching for full English
bacon blossoms taste divine
I collect them in the hedgerows
and...

self reproached
if you laid eggs you wouldn’t
eat omelettes, or have your
brains fried, or scrambled, or poached,
but you don’t, so you do
eat omelettes, or have your
brains fried, or scrambled, or poached,
but you don’t, so you do

breakfast
fried bacon roll
of the drums, please!
usually it’s just a
cuppa tea
and a cig,
but today I am making a real
effort, in my own way, admittedly, to
just look
at how I live ..

Old El Paso
It's a little chilly.
Tacos, making me feel things.
A lot of spicy green things.
Tomatoes.
Burnin' up the weak things.
I see the ceiling.
Falling through the floor.
Just a weakling.
On a tour, in the evening.
Burnt to the core.
These cacti keep stinging.
Born again.
The bells are ringing.
Cronos swallowed.
Can't stop drinking.
I'm off the wall.
A little green thing.
Satan called.
Thought I was dreaming.
Gave it my all.
This mountain is beaming.
No more balls.
Just receiving. ...

R's Warm Body
Heat rose
Heavy hands
Head in a spin
Heart in a race
Vision hazy
Legs gone wobbly
Body trembling
Stomach growling
R's hunger echoes
For a feast

I was at the library with my girlfriend
I'm in a library with my girlfriend
We're listening to some guy talk about politics
Pro this, anti that
He sounded like an ignorant asshole
He looks into his small, uninterested audience and says that he's looking for a great place to get some dinner
My girlfriend gets up and says, "Would you like a great meal or something fast & easy?"
He says, "I'm looking for fine dining with a romantic ambience."
She says, "I have the perfect place"
She takes his hand & leaves

I can’t face the roast
sunday lunch in the pub,
but I’m never hungry at lunchtime,
still full from a late breakfast
I ask for a whisky and,
as everyone looks askance I say,
defensively, on toast ..

Maybe she should have asked for cereal instead
Kind of sick of my wife
This marriage is getting the best of me
All she does is complain, nag, whine and bark orders
I could divorce her
I could up & leave
I'm just lazy I guess
I zone out most of the time
I'll escape by writing poems or stories
Other times I'll exercise or go for a walk or bike ride
I always keep myself busy
I'm a perfectionist
Our home is always clean, organized and neat
She knows how well I take care of everything and knows she don't need to lift a finger
The one thing she does is cook
Very good at...
