Ambiguous
Sweet swan songs sadly sung
The end looms nearer
As a twilight of possibilities
Lie within the echoes
Of lost ambiguities
As vague reminiscences
Drift away
Into worm holes of doubt

Untitled life
And, on the pre dawn rumble time of losing
Tracks and dust heartbeats wrapped in shrouds
Unfound too proud, alone, with wise masters of design
Deny life insight like a wall, stoned and wet with dry eyes
Threatening powders, makeup pastels and many, many laces drawn together tightly till faces close
Whistling simple tones to slash solar rays
unbenign, giving flowers unfurling to unborn ants arrayed in crooked tables and concrete mulch
The clicking of black stallions until hissing smoke sours in exhalation
This land of broken shoulders swarm...
Tracks and dust heartbeats wrapped in shrouds
Unfound too proud, alone, with wise masters of design
Deny life insight like a wall, stoned and wet with dry eyes
Threatening powders, makeup pastels and many, many laces drawn together tightly till faces close
Whistling simple tones to slash solar rays
unbenign, giving flowers unfurling to unborn ants arrayed in crooked tables and concrete mulch
The clicking of black stallions until hissing smoke sours in exhalation

Empire of Senses
My love aches for purple abandonment
In the twilight of forgotten crops.
Where shadows dance with silent lament
and the moon spews forth black dew drops.
Oh, how the ocean gets addicted
to the rapture of poodles in flight!
The stars whisper secrets
in the madness of velvet delight.
Eternity fiddles with time’s strings
a symphony of chaos and grace.
Heaven shines like jelly, voluptuous,
in the embrace of a Dodo’s face.
The sun throbs with fermented oysters.
Its rays a tapestry of decay
as a red...
In the twilight of forgotten crops.

and the moon spews forth black dew drops.

Fireflies
The golden moon
Sits in the night sky
Full, and glowing
Ever knowing
As she watches on
Sister Earth below
Echoes of her glow
Scampering
Across clear waters
Creating shimmering golden pathways
That stretch
Over the moonlit horizon
To a land
Of far away dreams
Where-in dwell
Ethereal beings
That hover with gilded wings
And golden hearts
Within the mysterious moonlight
like firey fireflies

Elephantasy
When i arrived home yesterday
I
To my surprise
Espied
A herd of elephants
Lying upon my bed
There were a score of them
But luckily
They were quite small
Small enough in fact
To fit all twenty of them on my bed
But they got round this
By intertwining
Trunk to tail
The thing that surprised me most
On finding twenty elephants on my bed
Is that the bed didn't collapse
Under their considerable weight
Maybe it was because
They were all pink
Or maybe
Just maybe
There were no elephants in the...

Mouseman
I went searching for magic today
I packed my bags
And went wandering
Into the dark lonely woods
I hesitated a little
Before entering the leafy other world within
I tried to follow a path
But had to venture into dense underfrowth
And heavy bracken
It took me a while to realise
That it wasn't the heavy foilage that was the problem
It was me!
The moment i entered this wood
A protective spell surrounding this wood
Turned me into a mouse!
I no longer search for magic anymore
As i'm to busy avoiding owls, and witches...

Bouncy Iggle Pops! (Nonsense Verse!)
Well missal my crowthorpe!
And cast asunder
My eggulwumps
For i have flobble wobbled
To the tiggle wiggle
And lost my blobble
In a wibble weaver
I had some bouts adoubt it
But was soon resolved
With a bot hawter wattle
And now my iggle pops
Are much more bouncy now!

Dream
Maybe tonight I won’t ask for a dream.
I’ll let the dream choose me.
Like I am someone the dream needs.
To pass through, to be felt.
Like a ghost
Needing a body, through which to live its desires.
I’ll let the dream choose me.
Like I am someone the dream needs.
To pass through, to be felt.

Hindsight
I was out meandering one day
To see
If i could espy a Hart
So as to take a photo of it
To try and capture his magical essence
I searched
High, and low
Without success
Until finally
I decided to return home
And to my huge surprise
There was a Hart
Stood within my living room
I don't know why
But i asked it a question
"What on earth are you doing here?"
And to my astonishment, the Hart replied
"Home is where the Hart is!"
I left my house much dicombobulated
