Tied Together For Ever

Folder: 
All and nothing

Pinky Promise,

Cross our hearts,

Until we die,

We’ll hook our fingers

As loves’ will lingers,

 

Just as good as other things

Much the same as God and Rings,

 

Vows unkempt

Unkept soon parts,

 

So, Say you will

Stay, stay eternal,

In our finger hitches

And grabbled hearts,

 

Say we’ll find

Some sealing wax,

To glue for ever

Our Pinkys’ Pacts.

Tongue twisted Lace

Folder: 
All and nothing

 

Holes with holds,

Carves and moulds,

To a lady’s shoulders,

Styled with grace,

For just encase,

 The starlight suddenly smoulders.

Batter-burg Cake

Folder: 
All and nothing



A crumb,

Never knows another,

      crumb,

As scrumptious is,

For it takes at least,

              a good half slice,

                And a thorough lick of the thumb.

 

But if it were t’other way,

Craving could over come a crumb,

            And imagine it malicious,

            If we’d all bake,

            Cannibal, ballistic cake.

                        Murder!

            Mayhem!

Squeals and shouts of ‘Yummmm!’

Till on the whole of the plate,

            There’s nowt but a crumb.

 

Thanks goodness,

A crumb,

Never knows another.

Contradiction

Folder: 
All and nothing

 

Handle quickly my outer-derma,

Bring me back to terra-firma,

Force feed me those vaccinations,

Free my longing of hallucinations,

Dreaming dreams of dreams unending,

My mind’s unravelling from its bending,

Day and night and night with day,

Truth from friction flies away,

Feeling through my deeds undone,

Steals my soul for ghostly fun,

Damned to fight this welling urge,

Daily dreams a ceaseless scourge,

Pointed battles with foolish fiction,

My poetic nightmare of contradiction.

Tap, tap on top

Folder: 
All and nothing

It was a night,

Of long stemmed glasses,

Clinking smiles,

And devilish eyes,

Trumpets and trombones,

A forest of velvet dancing,

Cheek on chest,

With a pinstripe suit,

Stapled in the smell of stale tobacco,

Carried in a slimline cigarette case.

Law of Polarity

Folder: 
All and nothing


As happy as happy gets,

sadness sits quiet yet,

waiting

waiting in the wings,

tighter

tighter till it springs,

SNAP-SWAP fickle stings,

History espied in rings,

slowly

slowly happy stacks,

everything

sadness lacks.

Positive Thinking

Folder: 
All and nothing



A sense you all need,

 

A sense you all feel,

 

A sense you will deliver,

 

 You sense the shiver,

 

Change then heal,

 

Word then deed.

Imagined

Folder: 
All and nothing


A machine

Meaningful,

 

Challenged

A changeling,

 

Handled

An angel,

 

A genie

Generated,

 

A self-image

Dim in age.

365 challenge

 

 

Reach up right now,

Closer, closer to the sun,

Lifted by the light,

Craned in height so unaware,

Your kite string's in heaven's hold.

 

Clouds, still yet appear,

Suckle the heat from the day,

And the potency,

Fades, plunged earthwardly,

Hindmost the string is reined.

The kite string no 69
