HAPPY SAPPY MOON.


I woke early one morning,
one very early morning indeed,
and to my unexpected surprise,
I saw a big round moon in full bloom,
mourning,
looking very anxious,
skimming for some long lost glimmer,
looking indispensably trimmer,
likened to a kite; flying high,
and that’s when I realized the glimmer was not dimmer,
the glimmer was me!

A big round happy sappy moon,
is sometimes laughing and maybe even playing,
but only when no one is prying,
he has all the time in the world to see,
how beautiful he can really be,
if he just simply stays put,
and hides his uncontrollable glee.

I woke up early one morning,
one very early morning indeed,
spoke to a flower in love with lots of colour,
and we laughed and hugged,
came to mutual understanding,
that even if it was not really at all demanding,
a big round happy sappy moon,
will always be, indeed, overwhelming.

Love! And be cheerful about it.

January 20th 2010 03:31
Am I a cheerful meadow or am I a blissful tree,
never mind I have so much cheer I could even be a bumblebee,
I smile with abandon as I sway with zeal,
it is the sweetest of all of this life's deals.
To fall in love is what I am on about,
to love with passion high above in the clouds,
to want to announce it to the world so loud,
to tell my love that my heart is willing and ever so proud.

love cheer song happy


A cheerful prose, it is indeed,
one of song and unquenched glee,
one that has weathered out so many storms,
and one that now finds itself calm and warm.

Why do donkeys eat artichokes?

January 2nd 2010 05:24
artichokes donkey smart funny


Why do these hardworking quadrupeds eat artichokes? If all donkeys eat artichokes, then it follows that if you eat artichokes you must be a donkey.
But then again when artichokes are served with oven cooked broad beans garnished with chopped dill, some crushed garlic, and a squeeze of lemon they are too good for any old donkey to eat.
So, do you eat artichokes? Or maybe you prefer something greasy served with chips cooked in artery clogging saturated fat, accompanied by other delights that are inundated with an obscene amount of sugar to send your pancreas in free fall. I wonder if donkeys eat artichokes in fast food convenience stores?
I guess they don’t, ergo I also guess I have answered my own question about donkeys and their sensible habit of eating artichokes.
I confess I am a closet artichoke eater and I have come out; I also do not think that I am a donkey.
Therefore, not all donkeys eat artichokes, because some of them are indeed, human and proud of it.

What do you mean, STUPID?

December 10th 2009 03:23
Well, what do you mean? Are you calling me stupid or are you asking me what stupid is?
Either way I find it abhorrent that you would even consider me remotely stupid, which is not the same as considering me entirely delinquent stupid! I do not understand, in fact I’d be surprised, if anyone has ever understood the true meaning of stupid. I assume off-course that everyone knows and understands the false meaning of that word. There you go again, how can anyone say I’m stupid if they themselves do not understand the bloody meaning of the word in the first place.
I know what inchoate means so who are you to call me stupid!
Don’t call me names!
You hear me loud and clear now son! Don’t call me stupid…

A life soon to be forgotten.

A life without hope.
It’s a place nobody ever wants
to visit and hardly ever thinks about.


Her eyes tell a story,
it’s volumes they’re screaming,
for anybody willing to listen,
a beautiful pair of eyes,
striking to look at.

A hidden sadness is always there,
for anyone eager to see,
an impression of her ails,
those eyes are sad, indeed, gloomy.

A lost hope, far flung long ago,
there’s never a smile,
not now,
the pain is deeply entrenched.

She’d prefer to die,
but not before she speaks her story,
someone must be told,
a fine-looking pair of eyes.

Aspirations long gone,
a ballerina in flight,
a loss that will soon be forgotten,
wasted life, painful life,
tears never acknowledged,
a pity really.

A free spirit in mourning.

December 2nd 2009 04:09
I often stop and prioritise my thoughts, I often stop and smell the daisies, and that is a deliberate act to remind me who I am and where I am. It seems to work for me.

A free spirit in mourning.

Stare into a blank concrete wall,
comparing your life to an insurmountable goal,
budgets, budgets, budgets,
all matters in life are budgets,
a buoyant economy,
the current account deficit is good,
comparing to other blank concrete walls,
that appear in daily life.
Have you forgotten about the daisies?

Check out the figures,
but wait!
Check out the figures sixty times a minute,
make sense of it all,
compare your concrete wall to other concrete walls,
keep telling yourself you are happy.
Have you forgotten about the daisies?

Surround yourself in another five concrete walls,
make love totally enclosed,
watch the world below,
clip on the latest,
tell yourself you’re happy,
hit the remote, everything that spins and opens,
drive into a brightly lit night,
long time in limbo.
Have you forgotten about the daisies?

Life matters,
empathy is king,
hold onto your dreams,
economic dreams that is.

You have forgotten about the daisies!

The dilemma with loving so complete

The dilemma with loving so complete!


You run the chance of succumbing,
to a never ending pain,
a solemn promise to stop hurting,
never seemed so vain.

A poem about love’s anguish.

October 29th 2009 01:56

A nature, a nurture,
it’s simply a delectable torture,
some say no, whilst others curl in a ball,
sorry may seem like it, but it’s never an option,
you need, to need a commitment,
as uncomfortable as a bed of old rose thorns,
say me, tell me no lies,
life can be, is terrible when there are no ties.

anguish love sorrow parting respect


You know, what must be so,
no matter how you think I glow,
you’re running out of assumed options,
let me tell you why,
our love’s on the rocks,
hasn’t really got off the blocks,
do yourself a favour and realise,
I’m not just another flavour.
Wake up and look at what must be,
a short window of opportunity,
before we share our last cup of tea,
and I fly away.

A poem to a lost love.

October 28th 2009 03:33


How can I bring myself to tell you,
of our love this dispensable injustice,
my resolve must be, has to be stronger.
How can I love you anymore than I already do?
How can I stop crying tears so many?
When I know I’ve lost you,
not my love, not god himself,
will bring you back to me,
an empty space, a void in my core, my heart.
I loved you, still do, long for you,
don’t know how else to say it,
I’ve lost you to the earth,
may well be far away,
some long forgotten embryonic state,
concealed from sight,
buried forever,
not able to touch you ever again,
your scent on me, your scent on my soul.

dead tree death love soul pain


What a cruel task so immense,
to know that I know this will tear me apart,
and I do not want, will not stop it,
to want it and hurriedly so,
to feel this grief,
these shadows,
not to be able to breath again,
not to live without you,
somehow to overcome this darkness,
to continue.

A woman in red with nylon stockings.

September 18th 2009 04:39
A woman in red with nylon stockings.

The fallen branches blend with the withered leaves,
autumn colours of sorts,
an ornate bench seat in the forest, it is easy to use,
many trees, all tall and thin and behind them a wall made of stone.
A woman in red is standing in front
with nylon stockings,
her teeth gleam a brushed white.

A picture on the wall, a piano out of tune,
a green room of geometric shapes in all directions,
and a crying from fear, being lost indoors,
her mind listens with intent,
she is happy to be aroused, to want to make love,
to be sexual once again.

A black carriage fitted with rubber tyres carries her away,
a hastened kiss,
a church bell rings in tune with the piano,
from the large green room with the wooden floor,
a marching sound like that of a never ending wave,
it feels uncomfortable.

Making love,
the black carriage on rubber tyres has arrived,
it is about time to stop looking into barren thoughts,
and listen to the music from the green room with that wooden floor,
to stop sleeping lightly and dreaming of fallen branches,
to walk outside, a journey with each step.
Never looking at the moon lest I see the reflection,
of the woman who wore red lipstick.
