Tardy?
hardly
awake before I have to be
premature
something or other
but
that's me
and I make no
apology

She loves me
anyway,.

Did you see her
and
did you say,
Ave Maria?
if not
it doesn't count when
the sum is being totalled
and forfeits being made.

In leafy glades when we're laid to rest
and we know with our souls that
we did our best,
it's best to keep your fingers crossed
just in case.

The end of the year
and most of us are
still playing it by ear
but twenty twenty-five
is just around the corner
and most of us are
going deaf
how will we play it then?

The elongated eyebrow.

Nothing for nothing unless you put something in and what you get out is now't like what you put in.

Three blind mice
didn't get very far
the Farmers wife drove
a Mercedes Benz
had a 40 gauge with a
telescopic lens,
blind or not the trio
got shot,
three blind mice.

Not relevant?
but the elephant in the room needs
room to manoeuvre and
who's going to hoover up later?

Randomness, a pick of sorts all more some less or
like a drawn-out game of chess,
the elephant still leaves a mess,
the castle takes the Queen.

A cat went carol singing on a cold December night
couldn't read the words to sing so
stood under the light,
three blind mice
see what you've become
the words in a song sung under a light on
a cold and dark December night
well
I never heard such a thing in my life,
three blind mice.

This skyline
the story of our timeline
from Neanderthal
to
shall we have a coffee dear?

So near
so far
and far should have been fat
but there we are
stuck between
don't give a ****
and how have you been?

I need to make a dinner
a repast for this sinner
think I'll have a drink instead
and then
I'll go to bed,

this skyline
a waste of my time
which is rapidly
dwindling.

Some times
when I think that I must be
slightly off-key
or somewhat disturbed
I look around me
and think
Nah,
I'm good.

That chariot race had no place being in my dream,
old Romans should not roam about *****-nilly
and I lost.

I don't dream like I used to
I think the colour's running out
the screen they're played on has turned  grey
I don't dream what I dreamed of yesterday.
