Plant Code Encryption Maggot

all creeping violets and other geni have form
mastectomies are not the only chocolate in the box
these locals eat nothing but potatoes and sprat

be veterinary

amniotic love lasts less than london cabs in leicester
square. All climbing walls have ears of steel and fibreglass
noses. Carry over and carry on you ramblers - all:

be veterinary

Buzz fly be go eat dot come flag red go stay pay less
per minute at last digital epic ping pongo dingodong
it is wrong and always has been to eat people

Performance Poetry

Vasectomies and hearng aids:

(loudly): "CUT"....................

Fagstep?

Take out these steps and dust them down
all they got you was an Alice In Wonderland circle from
a hard handed squaddie, who, maybe works on the roads now

His hands were harder than yours and you don't even have a cute face anymore.

I tried to tell you before you went out that all that happiness - or the satisfaction - would get you into trouble and then it did. Thank God you still have friends who've known building sites.

To be murdered before the eyes of a helpless 70 year old DJ would be ignominious in ways
only the most specialised would understand and god knows what they'd've said to you at the gates...

Exactly. Cheer down. Lighten up. Frown a little.

Job Done

they gave it up for music and a free electric band
my grandparents. People were so naive in the 1970's

said Jemima, who was working for one of the largest up and coming knowledge based groups in Cambridge when she made the observation in the context (in case you wondered) of a 3rd stage group interview when somebody asked her what she thought her two biggest faults were.

Interesting and not a little bit curious that she chose to list her grandparents as HER (number 1) fault and ' always looking to see if the path had been trodden when she was at school because she was in love with the postman. She used to leave small booby traps and try to infer 'knowledge' based on her findings...

The job? Marketing and Comms Officer with a fundraising 'second nod' in mind...

Why she chose to quote Albert Hammond when answering questions about her weaknesses - and choosing to pick on her grand folk in their paucity - will remain a mystery.

She got the job - despite her imperfections.

Oh, Jemima. You should've been in Playschool.

Arch, Square, Circle and...?

No More Strictly

Please, no more...
three shifts a month pays my car insurance she said...
she so heartbreaking when she talks like that

I've got a Florence trip and my tattoo - oh, its just lots of things add up..

but now, she's standing there warming herself by the council gas fire that we now own at the knock down thatch price of 65% off....

planning her life - and I'm paying for some of it but there's still just that little reliance

and the title music plays

and the weather girls dance

and the people at home vote

Keep me in?

and knowing this matters..

knowing this matters...

knowing how much this matters,

that this is nearly all and the best, the best

knowing... these times that were so many

these are the days and the hours and now

I'd just stay dumb to sit beside you love,

while you drive me somewhere - moan all you like -

just so you can have a drink - but mostly it's something less indulgent

because you are trying love and this generation - of yours -

its not easy. And you are just feeling a blind for of tiredness

as a price to pay for doing your best and you are. I watch. you do your best

So proudly.

Its raining in the street, Bleaker Street.

You moved past so much - I admire you. A kid. My kid.

I stand in admiration and hope that you are better than me and know..

You will need to be.
