State of the Nation
in those days I worked
all the hours God sent
sometimes a few more but
in those days I worked
One flew over
Jack Nicholson in drag for some reason
haunts her dreams
if only she could find a way
back to David Niven
End times
a thing, another thing
one fucking thing after another
ad nauseum and et sequentia until
the day when there is not
Emergency Protocols
in the event
of no safe course and no safe exit
search your boss's office
for the drinks cabinet key

Three inspired by Tesco's this morning:
Spooky
Michael Jackson's ghost
appears to have appeared
to Lionel Richie says The Sun.
I wonder if he dictated a song?
Choice
a miserable man
oblivious in the aisle
stumped by ginger-nuts it seems
all hope of tea and biscuits dead
Drive
that your engine won't keep running
it's not so bad a thing
given that
your steering is approximate at best
--
does anybody else find it hard counting words instead of beats?

Instead of just sitting on the fence - why not stand in the middle of the road?

Grains we pounded wafer thin for our fall picnic
were even then on chartreuse spikes
being harvested in the swamp.

Good to see you doing this as well, Jackie.
