In The Passing Of Rhyme

Long ago a ponderous muse

Stirred in deeper thought

Considering how other ways

By implication might contort

Between a storm of simulation

Drums of motivation pounded

In scrambled forms of possibilities

Which shunned philosophies unfounded

A vanguard at the forefront

Too far ahead yet building steam

In a pightle where discovery
Once cast-off a doubtful scheme

Oh Me Oh My Omega

Baseline food for living a life

Expressed in health addressed
Evade the fad discard the bad
Super tunes beat in your chest

Maintain your pipes and organs
Be free of clogged up lumps
Let song play in your theatre
Classic smooth without the jumps

Whatever your personal preference
Special taste or to minimise waste
everyone knows not anything goes
Starvation no place for straight lace

Opacity Sagacity

Narrow Norman with his sailing sight

Horizons too far out

Meanings missed in tidal gist

Coordination’s lewdly shout

Lost alone in blinkered misery

Curtains pulling on his view

Collisions sketching rough precisions

As dismal outlooks may accrue

Narrow Norman he must now own up

Take a longer look at options

Slice the brace undo the lace

Cancel new-age old concoctions

Happy At Play

Thrilled To The Bone

The week is almost over

As Friday night gets heady

On the town without a frown

On your marks get ready

Rhythmic hearts are beating

To the dance of Friday night

The easy day is down your way

With Saturday in sight

City lights are tremulous

On the night side of the winning

Friday smiles for many miles

Every stop a new beginning

Inside Outside Heads Apart

Quiet corner silent space

Unhindered in reflection

Considering the scheme of things

Finding power in subjection

Not concerned with why one is

Nor how notable a mission

Deep in mind with what I find

Discovering steps to each decision


Conversations had within oneself

Rarely ever written down

Press on me a sense of mystery

As fuzzy logic breaks it down

The weight of things one must weigh up

From that insistent inner voice

If left ignored may leave one floored

At worst denied another choice

So here it is and there I am

A fissure pulsing in the matter

A dream a scheme a scattered meme

A real imagined me I flatter

La Nourriture

Together sitting taking tea

Discussing nothing much at all

Background noises merging

Like interludes at Albert Hall

Voices trailing night ships sailing

To places who knows where

All around a union sound

Filled with people unaware

The café loud with lively crowd

Scraping seats and cutlery

Coming going toing  froing

Hall of smart-set imagery

Waitrons bringing orders winging

Sweet or savoury desires

Table numbers no one slumbers

Is all that pleasantry requires
