The Curtain
so important to me
a reputatuion saver you see
as I stand by the window
in the buffs breezy glee...

SPONGE
are just like animals
but... in some ways not
yes they have sperm cells
but organs they haven't got
believe it or not
they can become carnivores
crustaceans they eat
in phylumous chore
sexual reproduction
or budding in sprout
survival pods grown
when conditions in doubt
stunning colours
fluorescent hues
the yellow tube springs
and purple vase view
glass sponges in polar
some like it shallow
Demosponges prefer brackish
freshwater hallow
anti-cancerous properties
and a dolphins attachment
we use them for scrubbing
and body wash catchment

Fata Morgana
Fat Morgan
of famous dance
Duncanish in style
cellulite in prance
bouncing and pounding
permissively abound
tunic aflow
covering her round
but the breeze she created
exposed her thighs
and breasts appeared
to human cries
she spiralled on the shore
the sand her floor
and faraway spectators
saw duplicate galores
some kind of mirage
they said aghast
not believing their eyes
the naked American bast
doubling and tripling
this elephant like figure
maybe night will cure
this magic she configured

SEE
people say "I see"
which doesn't really say anything
because
it could be visionary
or a superfluous recognition of sound
a habit of cliche
which is spoken with dead eyes
and voice
that is monotone
and feet moving all around
they don't understand
but that is okay, because after all
who are they
but innocent bystanders
of my life, that is salad so tossed
they mean well
in their innocent ignorance
standing
near me but not too close
in fear of touched my shadow crossed
but they see my face
and stereotype me accordingly
sneering
not knowing their expression
or their derrogatory message of fear
But regardless I smile
and accept them for their vacant sincerity
seeing
the moment as it is "now"
and the obsolescence of my tear

FRIDAY
thank goodness for Friday
although in reality I say
it is no better
than any other day
sometimes in rains
sometimes there are sunny rays
sometimes it's cold
and sometimes it's a heat display
but one thing I know
that is so often asked
"What are you doing on the weekend"
in it's humdrum mask
but most of the time
for me at least
it's the same thing I do
on other days feast
and the mystique is there
the last day of the "week"
thank goodness it's friday
havoc I will wreak

Island of Garbage
a pile of junk
tossed without care
creating sludge
and smelly fudge
but after a while
it starts to change
into a mutant world
of beauty unfurled
the island dances
with golden bugs
fluorescent weeds
and trees that bleed
of mustard juice
that feeds the birds
building nests
in there blossoming crests
snakes wrapping flowers
a protective embrace
from spinning winds
a storm they rescind
a concert of whir
and an eclectic buzz
peaceful hums
and a vines sweet strum
hopefully when we
adorn this place
we'll respect the splendor
with nature we render

Swindle #2
to define
yes, a challenge
between a simple trick
or swindle
do our "leaders"
by pulling wool
trick and deceive
our futures kindle
turning to ash
because we believe
what we hear
in desperate hope
it sounds so good
in oratorial resplendence
waving arms
and embellishing soap
using fears game
where we always lose
making new enemies
we don't want in our grope
so think we must
and be leery of trust
have faith in our hearts
and humanitarian pith
no man of power
problems will solve
we will lead by example
uniting forthwith

Swindle #1
his past
was as sketchy
as brindle
and his reputation
began
to dwindle
he was certainly
as slippery
as a grindle
as my anger
began
to kindle
I wanted to
twist him
like a spindle
for his slimy
and sinister
swindle

YOU GOT IT ALL WRONG
She sneered and hollered
I jumped right back
Holy smokes I thought
she's ready to attack!
all I said was
"you look good enough to eat"
I guess she took it
in the wrong ways beat
I'm really a gentleman
harmless and sweet
but sometimes I can't resist
saying things in heat
I love you for you!
really and sincerely!
I'm not that boorish
though my behavior is nearly...
that of an animal
so sprightly and bright
so please accept me
as honourable, with a bite!!

Happy Hallowe'en
As my spirits darken
am enthused with lust
as my lurking evil
breeds mistrust
my teeth desire
the nape so fine
and naked breast
acquaints my lips to dine
taking prisoners of lass
in caddish gall
my charming persuasion
down Carpathian halls
leading damsels
to my seductive azure
next day I awaken
as a gentleman so pure

SPOOKY
some outfits I know
are somewhat spooky
they make me feel
kind of chooky
someone dressed like
a demonous dukey
can cause a reaction
that is rather pukey
cartoonish, a mistake
situation flukey
a oddly mouse-lion
that is simply kooky
from a foreign market
simply souky
brandishing sheafs
now that is stooky
wearing pink tites
and blackish toquey
that is silly
a appareled jukey
something really wild
almost nukey
my reaction was sera
kind of lukey

Punch and Judy
Nothing wrong with Punch and Judy?
it's been around since fourteen hundred
or does it condone
the violence of home
Mock hangings on heritage day
popular with children in ration
a complaining culture
suing our fashion
just look at the facts
Punch beats his wife
belts a baby no revel
policeman, hangman and Devil
British seaside culture
Bottler and punchman
busking engagements and private parties
with Joey the Clown so hearty
A crocodile’s scowl
a skeleton’s glower
Cinderella tale
A cruelty of will
A stick and run-ins
ghosts and final foes
required elements
for audience to glow?
extravagant relief
not moral and instructive
no model of conduct
harmless outrage in belief
statement of roles
mocking in stereo
percussive sounds
knocked about our souls

Peachy
Sun lotion capsuled
in the sands of bal masque
near sundials hands
tinted for play
the grinning teeth
of ancient mollusks time
on blanketed waves
covering silver sublime
the beachcombers part
brushing with rest
toweling breezes
kissing with zest
salty air
singing no despair
frolicking passion
the shoreline of hearts

The Elbow
officially
a synovial hinge joint
but there are many variations
and applications in point
humerus in upper arm
so kindly joined
to radius and ulna in fore
freeing our hands from core
a cubital form
that can be attacked
by tendonitis and fractures
and infectious pain racked
A length of pipe
a sharp bend to redirect
a quick turn in river or road
new path to resurrect
a jostled frenzy
bumped and bruised
or nudged in tease
to satirically displease
out at the elbows
in second-hand apparel
or lacking money
a perpetual peril
Snugly close at hand
a sleuthing snoop in snare
raising arm like a chair
or a waincotting's gyre
Yes, it does occasionally
get in the way
I knock it often in skitter
which makes me titter
but elbows are useful
but my parents said
never on table
or you won't be fed

Water Colours
every colour known to man
and rippled with a swimming flow
grey and pink at dusk is seen
moonlit with an eerie glow
green and blue touched with white
small smooth caps waving bye
red and black in early morn
before the sun empowers the sky
yellow and gold, twins so bold
the afternoon sun's glittering stars
tangerine and bronze on mid-mornings floor
a citrus explosion of spiraling bars
the african violet sprinkled crests
blooming with the orchid flumes
glimmering vines of tuscan light
just before twilights saffron blooms
sometimes encompassing
a rainbow's song
singing through the trees
touching the water's sarong
