Hindered, butterfly lips
Caress periods of solitude in my waking dreams
Of you
Echoes of late night parking lot shoulder stares
In the hour glass blares
Choking my dry throat – comatose
When I want to crawl inside you to escape the cryptic sunrise
When I want to be beneath you
Weathering out the disaster
My world
Outstretched arms to feel the wind
Flying dragon kites into the tree of you
When I want to be with you
Tasting your brown sugar skin until I die a diabetic
The pathetic monotonies of this love-sick fool
The cruelty of weathered limbs
Keeping my head under water
When I’m caught in the outlines of your coloring book depiction
Longing for waxen tones to fill beyond my lines
Color me
Color me
Color me inside out

trapping the hard and killing the pray with only a frozen sun to lead there way ,a never ending hunger a fire that feeds there bodies is the essence of life they hold so dear,collecting the bones of the beast and the smell of death that fill the air with no escape crawling , scraping bleeding from within across the barren lands and against the prevailing winds from the center of the hunter heart is where the hunt begins and where the hunt will end ...

Take an onion, finely dice,
Add garlic and risotto rice.
A few minutes fry in olive oil,
But not too long, or it will spoil.
Add stock and wine, about half a cup,
Stir well till rice doth take it up.
Keep adding stock, little and oft’
Keep stirring till thy rice be soft.
Add parmesan to give it flavour,
And whatever herbs you favour.
Add salt and pepper if you wish.
Then tip it all into a dish.

I raised my own turkey one year,
to be part of our Yuletide fare,
he lived in the house like a pet,
and we spared no expense on his care.
When it came to the fateful day,
for the gathering to be fed,
it was with a heavy heart,
I took an axe and cut off his head.
Then, on the very next day,
half asleep in my favourite chair,
his spirit appeared right before me,
the turkey’s ghost on the stair.
And now every year at Christmas,
since through that bird’s neck I sliced,
my turkey comes back to haunt me,
in the form of a poultrygeist.

She grabbed me around my thick long stem
I began melting in her hand
She dragged me to her dungeon cave
Where I was to obey her every command
She stripped away my golden wrap
While gazing at me with desire
I was so scared & a virgin too
In my ecclesiastical attire
She pressed her luscious lips against me
Licking, nibbling with excitement & glee
Submitting & surrendering my very self to her
Biting paraphilia, idiosyncrasy.
She made me what I am today
Yet I'm glad that I was born
An empty wrapper thrown away
Devoid of chocolate, all tattered & torn.

I'd like to leave this party
it's not fun anymore
The buffet doesn't taste
The way I remembered
Food to be
I'd like to leave this party
Too depressed to drink
Too lazy to break confinement
My glass remains empty
I'd like to leave this party
And find a quiet place
Where an eagle's cry
Doesn't mean tears
Doesn't mean fears

cambridge on a sunny morn
a professor deep in thought
a quasi quantum quandary
his mind now overwrought
now the kernel of dilemma
the cause of his unease?
with fish and chips for dinner..
should I go with mushy peas?
symbiotic clarity
coupled with his fate
yet the "mushyness" of peas
was abhorrent to his plate
order over chaos
his findings quite profound
yet a theorist
must work backwards
to a premis pure and sound
he expressed as a formula
elegant and wise
he wrote it on a post-it note
and sent it to the guys
twenty minutes later
his mobile broke the breeze
and a tired gruff glaswegian cried:
" I cannot read Chinese!"
