Humpie
I.
a frond a fan a tanline
aroused the pale to gold
to particles to crumble and now
the underside's age of pecks
orders a sweet bird
baked into the crust
to emerge as a merge to rehearsal
on a capping meadow
perking the flowers of hell
humans cobble as a wire act
on the wire, hearses hearing
the deaf deadened by a practice
of pinching the crust
know the birds are pied
senseless simulations
it is possible to pronounce

Mason Jar
I’m alright with this.
I’m alright with saying
I can’t.
Help me- open this
jar of jam.
Peaches today?
Yes, I’m quite
alright, just a bit
flushed. Oh,
yes, please-
open a window. Part
the curtains,
unlatch deftly, click, lift.
More fingers,
push up. Ah, yes,
thank you, I can
feel my neck cool
into a lemon rind.
The breeze has
added to your fingers.
Please,
continue- the jar,
I’ll go after
the butter, but let me
watch you
feel the grooves, ...

Nobody Died Today
nobody died today so I
could have another meal
no birds were caged or throats were cut,
what is not seen is real
brutality and cruelty
kids taken from their mothers,
the horrors of the slaughterhouse
are not for animal lovers -
nobody died today so I
could steal and wear their skins
no feathers were plucked, no one was trucked
it's now time we begin
to get rid of the fear and panic
which becomes us every time
we ignore the pain and suffering
simply because it's not mine -

old drunk bloke in the café says
used to think we’d be undone by our
own cleverness, but then you voted for trump,
and we voted for brexit,
and you voted for trump again,
and I knew it would be stupidity that would
finally kill us ..

Sometimes I wish I never ate
Sometimes I wish I never ate
Food became pleasure
It’s how I rest
Creeping into the kitchen at 3 am - making a crime
Emptying the fridge, pantry staples
Then pretending innocent when I’m called out
I feel so ashamed that my stomach growls
Maybe it’s a habit to want to eat more?
The resilience of a kind had I had
I’m sure, would not help
I swear to have just a bite
But if I start there’s no stopping
Until I’m full to a state where I can’t move my body
I fall asleep with a thought of
What I’m gonna...

The Marmite Monster
The Marmite monster
Sometimes leaves
Their sticky footprints
In my hair!
And sometimes
Seemingly everywhere!
But where i like
This Marmite monster most
Is when he's crept
Across my toast!

Baked Beings
For breakfast
I shall have bats wings
And mermaids tails
As sirens sing
And chips
And maybe, just maybe
A side dish of baked beings!
Not yet a Heinz variety
The more you eat
The more you impart
Especially, if these baked beings
Are only half baked!

on what one eats
I’m more savoury than
sweet
prefer bacon
to cakes
apparently everyone
bakes
but I’d rather fry
eggs
