NEVERENDING PIECE, MAN

A psychedelic dot-to-dot

A book for every hippy

A book they cannot end or stop

The flashbacks keep them trippy

MIND THE GAP

It's not the tick

Nor the tock 

Of the clock

They're markers

Unseen

For our lives

In-between

THE BEACH

 Time is sand on a beach. Where the only certainty is where we've walked. Don't stop to collect it, for then we're merely the hourglass. Better to enjoy the feeling of it between our feet. Sense every grain. Run, too, with time. As far as we're allowed. The beach goes on forever.

POP-UP WEATHER APP

 

My weather app says,

"It's 3 degrees and it feels like 3 degrees."

Oh, Summer, when will I see you again,

My woman in love, overseas.

NOT GOING OUT

 It's cold today

It's minus one

That one is me

Outside I'll shun

I'm stuck in bed

Which is quite true

But to be fair

I need a brew

I'll just get up

And make a pot 

Then back to bed

Where it is hot

I hate the cold

And it hates me

We don't get on

As you can see.

STAIR LIFT

My feet don't work like they used to

At the end of my dodgy legs

Which in turn connect to my back

Which cracks like the shells of eggs

I don't let it get me too down

It doesn't bring me to tears

I'll wait on the ground floor for now

Until my jet pack appears

STREAMING DREAMING

 

My dog is distant

He's here having dreams

The snoring persistent

He's running through streams

DENIER OF HOSIERY

I climbed the ladder in her tights 

And I got higher and higher

But then I was turned down, twice

She's a denier, denier.

LANE DEPARTURE

 

You're the M1 for me

I've gone off the A43

The M25 has lost its sex drive

And the A12 just goes to the sea

PATRILINEAL

Beeching

without hesitation

Leaching 

from station to station

Preaching

for the good of the nation

Teaching

control by castration
