Digital Futures (or why I don't like Mondays)


Frigid? Suit you sirs..
Bridget'll choose us
Rigid Al's sutures
Midget Abusers...

All them nasty, cold, hard, un-politically correct men and women who do bad stuff to small people...

Damn them all to Hell
(and clap them back)

A. Diddyman's Dreamsong number One.

Dining Club

Old Flat Top
Him.
A funerary procession zips by
Speeding before the corpse is loaded
with an imaginary siren screaming:
"LIVE' ("you fucking ants") LIVE..

"Anyone who has never read a poem doesn't really know what poetry is"
spake the old man before his quad bypass (successful)

Comings together have happened in many ways:
Before we invented time, it's possible to imagine
some light may have been seen over newly killed meat

Maybe less has changed than we are given to believing
or maybe much has altered and some chaps who didn't go to war
will, one day, get their invitation to the mum's formal

Vixen's dining association at Fitzwilliam?

Poultry on the menu.

Bring photos and stories to share ladies...
Muffins for the workers, maybe a chocolate brownie too.
Sarcasm, verse, the art of never reading a poem
are all qualities to be cherished at the Vixen's Dining Club

Chew, chew eyeballs, holy rollers...

A leg and a bum and a wing

I remember some of it but the best bits are all the rubbish we make up!
