Open cast Mining
This earth moving machinery
rattles and clangs through its rude day,
scraping away ancient scenery
and my childhood along the way
exposing coal under the clay.
The drone behind this high pitched whine
indifferent to the changes wrought
worms and casts aside my past times
for preciousness its master sought,
which drifts like smoke away to nought.
This droning drags on through the years
the desolation is complete
and fruitless now the ground sprouts tears
watching the spread of new concrete
to hide the black that...
rattles and clangs through its rude day,
scraping away ancient scenery
and my childhood along the way
exposing coal under the clay.
The drone behind this high pitched whine
indifferent to the changes wrought
worms and casts aside my past times
for preciousness its master sought,
which drifts like smoke away to nought.
This droning drags on through the years
the desolation is complete
and fruitless now the ground sprouts tears
watching the spread of new concrete
to hide the black that...

Floaters
Floating voters
Currently blocking
The sewage overflow
That lead
Through the middle of
The Houses
(of Parliament)
Where most of the shit
Resides

Blades of Grass Tipped Wide
Blades of grass now tipped wide
stood a garden upped and died
bones of yesterday's memories
now winds for the silent butler
and a deserted old parking lot
with echoes from the asphalt
pulling up yams with age spots
for a reality taxidermy TV show
stood a garden upped and died
stood a garden upped and died
bones of yesterday's memories
now winds for the silent butler
and a deserted old parking lot
with echoes from the asphalt
pulling up yams with age spots
for a reality taxidermy TV show
stood a garden upped and died

A Southern Water Christmas Carol
I saw three shits come sailing in
On Christmas day
On Christmas day
I saw three shits come sailing in
On..............
Enough about Southern Water
Think i'll leave it until
Boxing Day
(In the morning!)

We Are Our Own Creation
I’m standing at the ground level of existence
Looking around at the ridges and mounds of persistence
The erosion of my depression has terra formed the mounts
I attempt to climb the levels between needs and wants
Each level is sow with a different version of my pain
From row to row I choose to reap me again and again
Calluses built, nails broken, as I climb between levels
At the base, life wasn’t acknowledged as I lied with the devil
But he had no use for humans and he screamed, “fuck earth”
Hahaha, he pissed on nothing, and asked me...
Looking around at the ridges and mounds of persistence

Each level is sow with a different version of my pain
From row to row I choose to reap me again and again
Calluses built, nails broken, as I climb between levels
At the base, life wasn’t acknowledged as I lied with the devil
But he had no use for humans and he screamed, “fuck earth”

A Multitude Of Curses
In the last few years
Of withering tears
We experienced Brexit
And the fragmentation, that came with it
Then the Pandemic, full forsworn
As we all became forcibly withdrawn
Then the war in the Ukraine
With the fear of nuclear intervention again
And the obvious worries, and realistic fears
As the worst of climate change nears
Along with the subsequent massive price rises
That has left black holes, and unwanted surprises
In now empty purses
And a multitude of curses

Off Your Head
To the decision makers
And morality breakers
Pretend your head
Is planet Earth
And imagine
If some of your inhabitants
Of your planet head
Be they internal, or external
Start uprooting bits of you
Digging, and drilling
Tipping noxious chemicals
All over
Cutting arteries
And changing their natural flow
And generally
Messing around with your head
Then come the wars
And bombs
And blood
Your planet head
Would soon be dead.......

Being Human(e)
I was talking
To Gaia
The other day
(You may know her better
As Mother Earth)
Anyway
She suddenly said
"You know that saying?"
"Mad
Bad
And dangerous to know!"
I said " Yes"
She said
"That's you lot,
Humanity!"

Exhausted
I can hear the wind
Whistling quietly
Through my lightly opened window
As the cool breeze sweeps through
And gently cools my legs
Also reminding me
That it is time
To close my window
And pull down the blinds
Closing out the cold
And the outside world
Such as the sounds
Of early evening traffic
I am now left alone
In my silence
And my solitude
I switch on the radio
Not really listening
But appreciate the company
Then my ears pick up the words
'Climate change'
(The planet is tired)

Used-to-be Coal Cracker
Beam me up, Scotty, on my knucklehead Harley."
Do I look like a papoose or Mona Lisa with a smile
I'm the Lone Ranger and he ain't my friggin' Kawliga,
he is my Kemosabe and I ride a solid white Kia
so get off my Bubba Ho-tep, thinking me Elvis
or eat my silver bullets on the keno table, thinking
it's a Code Red, "riding my pony on the reservation"
smack dab in a bag of Cheetos with your name on it
because simply, you will be dead.
"Hi-Yo, Silver! Away!" But built low to the asphalt.

Get Off My Planet
One shan't ignore bellowin' woods
and obscenities of caging the canary,
let common sense ring beneath wings
even if you are from the middle class.
A-tisket, a-tasket, don't cherish it,
get off my planet you tone-deaf freak,
your game will end in the form of Jesus,
hoodwinked by the Man from Galilee.
And crows will hum and sum it up,
one doesn't Cheeto with a knife
and crap in their own basket,
playing with death's weed whacker.
So! zombie it up, living in a cocoon ...
and obscenities of caging the canary,
let common sense ring beneath wings
even if you are from the middle class.

get off my planet you tone-deaf freak,

one doesn't Cheeto with a knife
and crap in their own basket,
playing with death's weed whacker.

The Calm Before......
Neither perturbed
Or disturbed
As the fallow, shallow Earth
Quakes
As it ponders
On the mistakes
Of those that talk
But do not act
They do not hear
They do not listen
They've lost
All sense
Of their senses
The mad moon
Glistens
On poisoned seas
As the earth
Becomes more diseased
Inadequate promises
Are like sticking plasters
For broken legs
The calm before......?
