Growing Younger
I'm getting younger
every day
I gave up work
to go out and play
I look in the mirror
with a smile on my face
I can't see a wrinkle
there's not a line to trace
I used to walk with a stoop
but now I stand tall
my best friends
are a bat and a ball
I eat what I like
and don't watch my weight
with plenty of pudding
to fill my plate
My hair's growing back
and my abs are tight
my girlfriend tells me
I'm doing alright
We make love at weekends
and pick wild flowers ...

3. Annotated Peoples Make Connections: if they walked around in love/for love/by love with SFX labels to their chests
Their clothes jerk
from swimming on past their single legs.
One in short-shorts, an Aussie
with floating lips and an eyeteeth lick.
Other wears the slinky number
of a black needle which also translates
into his palm, a reading she swears by.
She stops him to look at her blue frame,
his feet sinking as he plants himself,
fresh mound marks the first g'day. Look,
a cursory ascending of dripping hands
for him, fuchsia words dipping the upswing.
Faces are dependent on and under a neon sign.
Desert. Strangers warmer at...

Love's Lesson
Love said:
Follow me and I'll follow you
all the way to Kathmandu
where we can both forget
the worlds we knew
So I flew us there
at great expense
even though it made no sense
it seemed the peachy thing to do
to take our tea
in Kathmandu
Then she met a monk
and disappeared
though I didn't think it awfully weird
when she slipped away
tied to his beard
and I waited for a day or two
sipped tea alone
in Kathmandu
But enchanted skies
and temple dust
do not...

FIELD OF LILIES
Rays of the sun
Light of the moon
Glow of the stars
Are you...
You light my world with your radiant smile
My world is engulfed by your universe
Your rays of sunshine fall on me
Every time I look your way
You are my dream come true
My prayer for a good man answered
You are a breath of fresh air
From the pollutant world I lived in.
You've taught me what's it like to love
And to be loved in return.
You are my precious angel
Sent from...

Ode to Filled Doughnuts
Just sit right back and hear this tale,
the tale of a faithful treat.
It started out as a lump of dough
and now it’s quite elite.
The bakers fried that lump of dough
and found it pretty grand.
And so they made a bunch of them,
to help their list expand.
They paired it well with sugar dust
and fruit with yummy cream.
They even cut the middles out
and glazed them to a sheen.
But best of all was when they found
a way to fill them up.
They puffed them up with jam and cream
and pushed the limit so extreme,...

Burning Boats
Rust in the basement
and the cupboard is bare
ghosts of the winter
still hiding down there
Trees bleeding spring
and the birds calling time
awakening worlds
to a first sip of wine
Like ants getting busy
before they're ready to fly
we were all too distracted
getting real with our lives
Chasing dollars while scholars
were dissed with a sigh
Just some crazy old fools
preaching gods of goodbye
and no-one believed
the seas would run dry
Old dinosaur bones
frozen in stone
warned of...

Teddy Bear Blues
You're a very dusty Teddy
forgotten and forlorn
forsaken by your owner
It's time that you were gone
So I drove you to the thrift store
to find you a new home
but they refused to take you
'cause your label is all wrong
Fire retardant Teddies
they snap up by the load
though without the right credentials
no store wants to know
Somewhere in bear heaven
there's a place old Teddies rest
but for now I'll take you home again
with the feeling that it's best
forgotten and forlorn
forsaken by your owner
It's time that you were gone
So I drove you to the thrift store
to find you a new home
but they refused to take you
'cause your label is all wrong
Fire retardant Teddies
they snap up by the load
though without the right credentials
no store wants to know
Somewhere in bear heaven
there's a place old Teddies rest
but for now I'll take you home again
with the feeling that it's best

For the Bastard in the Sky
There's a hitman in God's heart
and eight billion names on his list
Prayers and churches (like this)
only make Him laugh
If I was a drinker
I'd cry into my beer
and beg the Devil in us all to quit
but He made us
the way we are
His image
for a skin that doesn't fit
And so
we snort coke
smoke weed
stick needles in our ass
cut our arms to forget
We sleep around
steal from friends
strangle next door's cat
for shitting on the lawn
go to war
over who wrote which book
and some of us ...

choice
auden famously wrote, “we must love one another or die”, later castigating himself for not writing “and”, instead of “or”, and I don’t know why, since
whilst we live there is always a choice
whilst we live there is always a choice

one occasionally moans
the thing about needing a stick to
get around, is it’s hard to get around
all of ‘em gawping at their phones as
they walk around, I’ve often found

One for TS, Ezra and the Buk
Pound and Eliot, I despise!
That poison pair I'd love to kick!
They ruined poetry for years!
The gruesome twosome make me sick!
The Waste Land's rubbish, utter tripe!
The Cantos? Well, they're even worse!
I don't think I have ever read
a bigger load of awful verse!
Oh, wait a minute! Yes, I have!
That time I had such rotten luck
to pick up – most unfortunately! –
and read a Charles Bukowski book.
