THAT HESSE MOMENT
me and Antony
both looking gormless
he blinks first
but then we
just stand still
and look at the sky
***
Gradually and without effort the eye trains itself to transmit many small delights.
Hermann Hesse
THE SAUSAGES SILLY!
if you should meet
a one-eyed Spanish octopus
walking down the street
no shoes on his eh...feet
carrying a broken
pair of spectacles with
one lens
missing
then
shake him
by the hand/s
tell him it's time for tea
oh & not to
forget
the sausages
it's Valentine's Day
but also as it happens
National Condom Day
not to mention
National
Impotence Day
too many
mixed messages
methinks
Bay of Biscay
welcomes us
with storm tossed arms
"Oh my..!"
followed by
"Oh my!"
yummy mummy
tries hard
to jolly her
three year old along
with green jelly and
"Well, that was fun wasn't it!"
but darling daughter
is not having it
"I don't like the Bay of Biscuits!"
MEET THE EDITORS
Jan and Dónall
the cutest cookie peoples
that one could possibly meet
dempseyandwindle.com/
I inherit your shadow
and the map of your self
I snatch from the flames of your death
I steal you from your death
smuggle you out alive
in my crying eyes
Spring happens without you
I stare with disbelief
at your death
WELL WELL FANCY MEETING YOU HERE!
we pop into library
discover ourselves
looking back at us
@GuildfordLib
white kitten in snow
playing with a lost green mitten
my daughter's laughter
white kitten
head stuck in green mitten
becomes strange white & green chicken
gather up
my daughter's lovely laughter
keep it in mind
STRICTLY FOR THE BIRDS
how Hitchcockian
can one get
those no good cartoons
always gulling me
and always their poo
boo hoo boo hoo
