Monday done gone
and now
on to Tuesday.

it never stops
wailing sirens
the cops
a doughnut
but
I don't listen
anymore

got used to it
like I once got used
to the crash of waves on the shore
it's just background
and
if you really hear it
you can hear silence
in the sound.

I am ready
She says
steady on John
and
I wonder
where the time has
gone.

If that wasn't a goose then it was certainly geese
and sheesh
flew underneath the window sill,
they're likely to **** someone
with that attitude or altitude
and the dude next door said,
geese are what dinners are for.

I'm going to make my wish
upon a chicken's bone
which is not the funny bone,
well
not for the chicken.

I was
thinking of doing a Marathon
but
they changed the flamin' name
will do a Mars Bar instead.

no snickers.

They deliver to us
breakfast burgers on bikes
but take their meals with
fresh tax hikes
to fund a war
that
no ones for
but it's
peace and desist
that's getting everyone ******
wondering why the hell
are people dying.

On every page
there's a new pill to pop
big Pharma's
got
the upper hand
and
why the hell are we
still trying.

buy one
get one
move on
while they're starving.

Enlightenment
is just another stent
to keep the heart
pumping.

This industry
don't mean **** to me.

Work and you'll be rewarded
by being shafted.

Mental hospitality?
serving those above you
those who say
we love the work you do
lying *******

they use
discard
re-use
abuse
expect
reject
but when you've had enough
of their **** and stuff
time to call it a day
time to say adios
and get on your way.

no regrets
no void
no need to feel annoyed
it's just another learning
somewhere else I put my time in.

..and now to sit on the riverbank
watch the world
say hi
to people who may or may not pass by
feed the ducks
give no more *****
read the daily news,
that book by Zola
J'Accuse

muse on.

The evening light leads only to the morning when it's nice and rightly so, another day to go on my way, crisp, not even snow and if you know, you know.

Time for more?
She says,
there always will be,

notes float on the afternoon
the tune
familiar
can't quite place it though
so I let the wondering go
and wander off
into a distance
only I can see.

'turned out nice again'
a catchphrase back in the days when catchphrases made you laugh.

George Formby
he with the ukelele
or to be more accurate
the banjolele
was a daily tonic
and much better for you
than going back to the quack
to pay your five shillings
for some useless pills.

I'm guessing he's still leaning on a lamppost
somewhere
outside a Chinese Laundry
chatting with Mr Wu.

Slippers, a pair of socks, and a fukin KitKat for gawds sake.

Happy Father's Day to me.
haha

Hoping you have better luck when out shoplifting.
