IRONIC ISNT IT
Sometimes Irony and Murphy’s Law
lend to each other.
The blind man leads the deaf man,
they debate honest politics
one can’t see, the other can’t hear,
while they are nicely seated
at the corners of the round table,
which has no corners but still divides.
The preacher damns the sinners
between paid confessions and rented beds,
his sermon reeks of whiskey and perfume.
He calls it redemption; she calls it a Tuesday.
The poet bleeds words,
the painter stains canvas,
the whore does both, but she’s still...
lend to each other.
The blind man leads the deaf man,

between paid confessions and rented beds,

Sprung
Had a spring clean today!
After a quick look around
And to my surprise
Found a small spring
Lain upon the bedroom carpet
In a curious looking pose
So i picked it up
Saw that it was a bit grubby
And cleaned it
So now it's as bouncy as
A spring lamb
Or a ball
Or a spring!

Alienated!
I was abducted by aliens last night!!!!
They told me
They had come
To suck out my brains!
After much jabbering
Amongst themselves
And a few,
Seemingly harmless experiments
Where i presume
They were testing my brain output etc
They suddenly returned to Earth
Let me leave their spaceship aka ufo
Without saying a word?
So i asked
"I thought you were going to suck out my brains!"
"Yes earthling, we were
But decided on this occasion
It wasn't worth it.........

No Cheese in November
Fractured whispers in my head hanging on to ghosts
coherently grasping at my throat's absurdity with
"Polk salad Annie" in my obscenity's schizophrenia
with a balsamic vinaigrette, gaslighting the oysters
...no cheese in November

Gummy Bare!
I dreamt of romance last night
It was of someone i know!
Yet ten years ago, or so
I read on a dating site
That if age was a factor
And should it work right
Then by a rough rule of thumb
That they should be no younger than some
That are half your age old
Plus seven years added, to be told
Working on this basis
And some
Straightforward
Arithmatical sums
Then my potential partner
Will be at least 129 years old
But with possible healthy gums!

You scratch my back and I won't scratch yours
Can you scratch my back?
"Maybe. What's in it for me?"
Pimples, scabs and hair
"Maybe. What's in it for me?"
Pimples, scabs and hair

Mirrors
I went along to join a new group recently
I may of misread the details though
What i thought was a writing group of sorts
As about a dozen of us turned up
Some looked a bit long in the tooth
And a bit pale, and actually quite goth-like
So i thought okay, i'm here now,
So decided to go along for the ride
They soon started talking about bats
Which sounded quite interesting
Especially about bats in the attic
And how 8uncomfortable they found it
I thought they were concerned at their plight
But it turned out i was seriously wrong...

Catastrophic Catachresis Of A Crisis Of Identity!
I always
Identified as a cat
It was clearly obvious
That i wasn't born a cat
As i didn't spend my day
Sleeping, screwing, or licking my bum!
But i did enjoy exploring
As my curiosity
Knew no bounds
Forever seeking new experiences
Until
One fine moonlit night
I met a cat
Born a cat
We got intimate
And i got arrested
For beastiality!

Getting Wet?
I'm chewing away
Like a ruminating cow
That hasn't been milked
For quite a while
A ponder in a pond
A fool in a pool
A commotion in the ocean
The luna in the sea!
A quiver in the river
A quake in a lake
What kind of poem is this?
For goodness sake!

Like Bertha Mason
I now sometimes see you
Dear across the big pond dwelling cousins
As the sort of cousin
One may well
Keep locked away
In a secret room
And that you never
Under any circumstances
Speak of!
But yet
The reverse could easily apply
Trump, Truss true....!

Saturday Morning
I looked out my front door
On the other side of the street
I saw a man open up his trunk
He yelled for his kid in the house
The kid came outside, and to his joy there was a puppy dog wagging it's tail
The child who was no more then 5, lost his balance when the puppy jumped on him
The kid fell to the ground and on his ass
The dog was licking and nibbling the boy until he got a taste of the kids mouth and bit the kid's lip right off
Must have tasted the chocolate chip cookies the kid was eating while outside
There was screaming and blood everywhere...
