To run away
To run away
From what's inside
Will not remove
All ones doubts

One may travel
Far and wide
But cannot escape
From inner self

Stay awhile
Think what's good
Make a move
To be alright.

The shining knight
The shining knight was no light
The light that shined was not seen
The shine was not light but knight
The knight had no light to shine
The light shone from the knight
The shine was light from the knight
The knight shone like a bright light
The bright light from the knight was right
The right to shine like a knight tonight
The night was full of bright shining knight
The light was bright but not in sight
The sight of the knight at night was not bright
The night sight of the bright knight was a plight
The blight of the bright knights sight tonight , might not delight him in a light fight at the right height however slight , oh what a plight , like a flight of a kite.

Pesky picnic
Pay attention everyone said Lilliput
I have an important announcement
We're going to have a wonderful picnic
For our family on Thursday , poppits only
The groans were heard all over the palace
Are we riding there , asked Horsey Anne
No we jolly well are not
And you scrum half Zara , are not either
We're motorcading it , without staff
Another really loud royal moan
We are each taking everything we need
And that includes you ex pork of York
'OOHH NNOO' she gurgly grunted
Less of that , and NO toe suckers allowed
Nor arrive in a kiddies helicopter either
And you Wills missus more clothing
You make my  blue blood run cold
Next Thursday then , you picnickers

What have you brought asked Lilliput
Silver knives and forks hoarsed Anne
Paper plates grunted Flossy Fergie
Plastic cups , whimpered Wills missus
Lav paper for tissues, gidded up Zara
Big tablecloth bellowed Camilla
Have none of you brought food said Lilliput
'NO' they all mardily whinnied
None of us even thought about it

And you mumsy H.R.H. what have you brought

'NOBODY questions me , you pipsqueaks
LET'S ALL GO HOME NOW !
You strike your poise so well
Look at me
You seem to say
Hair dyed two tone
One colour black
The other red
Look at me
You seem to say
Sparkling mind
Eloquent speech
Deep of thought
Look at me
You seem to say
A bad time had
Not very good
Much better now
Look at me
You seem to say
I'm me
Can't you see.

Celine Dion
As I write this
Tears
Tickle my eyes
Just heard
And seen
All by myself
I blow a cool blow
I shake my head
In wonderment
Escaping tears
Running down my cheeks
Her song
Is still inside
I don't want
To let go of this song
I need
Oh yes
I need
To hear it again
So I shall.

Who would believe it
Just as I had finished the hard work
Of , earnestly sharpening
My nearly ready guillotine
Also washing my scruffy neck
For a really clean cut
Suzybloodywordmuse
Praises my sodding work
Well ! I ask the whole wide world
What on earth do I do now
First I'll have to blunten it
You know , just in ****** case
I'll catch a rolling stone
And sing to it lovingly
After that I'll write some more.

Thingies
Where were you yesterday
I was in the woods with Jimmy
And what were you doing there
Well first he asked me to take my knickers off
Did you
Yes I did , he has such a nice smile
Did you see his thingy
What's a thingy
Have you never seen a thingy
How could I have done ,
when I don't know
What on earth is a thingy
Have you any brothers
No , but does that matter
Well you would have seen one for sure
Look if I don't know what one is
How would I know if I've seen one
I'll have to tell you
We don't have one
Because we are girls
O.K. we don't have a thingy
Will we have one each
When we grow up
Ugh ! I don't jolly think so
Who'd want one of those horrid things
Alright you've got my interest in a whirl
What do they do with them
MMM , they use them for wee weeing
Is that it ,for wee weeing
So it's like a hosepipe
Well yes but smaller
Why have they got one
And not we girls haven't
Don't know
I've just realized
Did he take his trousers down
No why should he
Don't know
But why did he ask you
To take your knickers off
Easy , he wanted the elastic
to make a catapult.
Father
He's leaving us today
Going to a place
So very far away
I must say goodbye to a friend
He's now waiting for me

I know there's no need to hurry
It'll take more than just a moment
But I have to speak
For my very own intent
I must say goodbye to a friend

Soon he'll be only a memory
Someone whom was so dear
A very special friend
Of that I'm very clear
I must say goodbye to a friend

It'll take some time to do it
Not in a great big rush
Many , many things to say
In a way full of much
I must say goodbye to a friend

I've known him for a long time
Ever since I was born
He's been quite a man
Someone I couldn't scorn
I must say goodbye to a friend.
I can't reach as high as you
I'm between down and up
Midway to your star
You're going into orbit
Far beyond my range
Send me down a life line
To pull me into your arms
Don't leave me all alone
In my downside swamp
Cos baby I need you
So close by my side
Don't fly so high
It's a long way down to earth
But not to my heart

I need you to teach me
To aim up high like you
To leave my lowly thoughts
And climb up there with you

To climb up there with you
Is what I've got to do
To climb up there with you
Is what I've got to do

I'll reach out for your love
And fight my lowly life
Get up there next to heaven
Help make your dreams come true
Soar in all higher plains
Just to be alone with you
But, letting you fly higher
To achieve your wildest goal

But
I need you to teach me
To aim up high like you
To leave my lowly thoughts
And climb up there with you.

Penaltypitstop looks
Penaltypitstop looks
Pretty ha ha, a joke
No ! , penaltypitstoplooks
Out to the great outdoors
Through the kitchen window
Almonds in glorious bloom
Majestic Cyprus at attention
A huge don't know what
Others lurk here and there
Blue sky with a hint of cloud
BUT, and this is a big BUT
Sheeps , yes , yes many sheeps
A German friend thinks
Sheeps is the plural of sheep
Oh well , words are words
These sheeps are not allowed
To be seen , out of my window
Someone without sense
Has left ,A ****** gate open
I'll get changed into 'Superwoman
RIGHT , here I am, and there they are
GONE !WHAAAAAT, I checked
Some kind person , has flocked them back
PHEW !

I don't think he exists
'Well I think it's outrageous'
The snow was falling
'What is outrageous'
A snowball wanged past her right ear
'That there is a Santa Klaus'
A large ****** of bells was heard
'Of course there is'
Ten dwarfs strolled past
'Oh no there isn't'
'Jingle bells , jingle bells'
'Stop it , or we'll be'
Jingle all the way'
'Like this all night'
'Hurrah for good old Santa Klaus'
'O.K. maybe there is'
'Hurrah for Christmas day'
'And maybe there isn't'
A woman walked past
Carrying a giant Christmas tree
'O.K. this Santa Klaus bloke'
Followed by a black cat
'Mistake'
'Who does he think he is'
A dwarf said 'hello Dancer'
'Well he's a nice chap that'
She ignored him
'Has white hair all over his head'
But stuck her tongue out
'All over his head , he'll be blind'
A stray reindeer went by
'No not over his eyes, everywhere , but'
Whistling a happy tune
'Sounds like a strange fellow to me'
Two hedgehogs were pulling crackers
'He also has a sled , pulled by reindeers'
A mouse went past on a pair of skis
'Ha Ha .Pull the other one, what does he do'
The coffee bar opened
'Gives presents out , all over the world'
The elves reached their workshop
'Now you're really joking'
And started making presents
" Oh not I'm not'
The fairies started to wrap them
'Oh yes you are'
The octopuses are not in this story
"Stop , stop , stop '
The sled was being filled
'Look I don't believe a word of it'
For millions of children
'But you have to Rudolph'.

Fade away
Fade away  fade away
But don't fade out again
I don't know where I'm at
I've lost my  place
I've lost my niche
My corners occupied
She stood in the rain
Time going by so fast
Train left  on time
In the same dimension

Fading away
Fading away
But don't fade out again

I don't know why
It hurts so much
I don't know why
I'm losing touch
All of the things
She said to me
Was never meant
You can have my word
I trust you with my life
Left me twisted inside

You can have my cup
You can have my spoon
You can take my batman
And my star wars too

But don't fade out again

Made up like a clown
She could do better
But doesn't know how
She doesn't know how
If it's to be
Let her
It's so plain to see
She's in love with me

Cos she's a wandering woman
As free as a bird of life
Cos she's a wandering woman
Never to be a wife

Why should I be sorry
That's she's painted so
That's the way she is
No one can tell her so

Cos she's a wandering woman
As free as a bird of life
Cos she's a wandering woman
Never to be a wife

She is who she is
Tormented girl from where
She'll keep on moving
From here until there

Cos she's a wandering woman
She's a free bird of life
Cos she's a wandering woman
Never to be a wife

Life is what she wants
There's no way to change
She'll go on foever
The way she has to be

Cos she's a wandering woman
She's a free bird of life
Cos she's a wandering woman
Never to be a wife

I can't believe myself
I'm so full of her
Can't let her go
Cos I love her so

Cos she's a wandering woman
She's a free bird of life
Cos she's a wandering woman
Never to be a wife.

LOAD THE GUN
Load the gun
Unload the gun
Gulp of whisky
Load the gun
Unload the gun
Think of them
Their romancing
Another gulp
Load the gun
Get outside
Stand by the car
One last gulp
Walk to the door
Deep , deep breaths
Break in fast
See them together
Raise the gun
To my temple
Pull the trigger

Eyes that see
Do they
Do they really see
The despair
Of
A broken heart
The torment
The empty hours
The doubt
Yes
The self doubt
The trudge
Of revisiting
For
No reason
Do
They really see it
No
They do not
For sorrow
Is only
Deep
Inside
Never
To been seen
By those eyes
.
Sometimes this happens , but if it didn't , where would anyone be?

Wood broken
Wood broken
Steel bent
Life jacket
Broken mast
One intact
Chewed up oar
Part of bow
Some of rail
Looks like keel
Flogged to bits
Was once a boat
Someones joy
The mighty sea
Did not want
This little one
To escape from
Its horrific jaws.
Hutch hopped about
Foraging as usual
Sundance stealthily
Crept towards her
Hutch sensed danger
Turned this way and that
Wrinkling her nose
To test the breeze
But did not detect
Her murderers crouch
Sundance sneaked
Towards a **** position
Getting ready to pounce
Hutch twitched her nose
Oh no , she thought
I'm being stalked
Sundance leapt into space
That's all he had
Hutch had gone.

Jaberwockys' Diary
I must get down town
Get my teeth sharpened
To give a nastier bite
Yes a bite to remember
That my victims will not
Oh ! how nice to bite
An evil dream come true
My claws to be done too
Making a loud clash of course
If not , I'll be empty of my music

I have to keep an eye out
For him with the Vorpal sword
I believe , he's my mortal foe
Resting by the Tum Tum Tree
Awaiting to cut me down

I Jaberwocky , with eyes aflame
Like to whiffle along
Through the beautiful Tulgey wood
Bubbling in tune as I happily go
Sensing danger near at hand
Swish , swish , swish went his sword
Sway , sway , sway went my body

But the devil, he ****** well is
Dug , dug , dug, deep inside of me
My green blood Spraying all around
He galloped of without a horse
With my head  held high aloft
But, so much little did he know
That, when night should verily fall
Cronjyceuse will set me right as might.
The blue mixed with the green
Then changed to vivid pink
The colours were colours but not
To be defined
was an impossible task
Colours changing forever changing
Yellow , gold , green , blue ,violet , and orange
Swirling , whirling in random complete
One look, another at this changing scene
There was he , so fleetingly there
Gone to be replaced by something bizarre
Changing shapes and colours around
Does not overtake me in despair
It's so wondrous this amazing scene
In this rainbow of various hues
Will I wake up, I hope not
Let me see this unconscious dream.

Title 'Birth and death '
When I was born
What did I know
Nothing
What did I remember
Nothing
Did I cry a lot
Don't know
Did I fill things
Don't know
What did I know
Nothing
When I am dead
What will I know
Nothing.
Things hit my mind with a thump

Hold me til it hurts
Hold me til it hurts
Squeeze the bad out of me
Let me be a good loving man
Give me love to keep me clean
You know I need to feel fine
So fine
So fine

Keep me strong in your arms
I just need you this way
Stop my mind from going astray
Let your love envelop me
You know I need to feel fine
So fine
So fine

Stroke me ever so tenderly
Caress away my thoughts of shame
Your love does hold me so still
No cheating upon you anymore
You know I need to feel fine
So fine
So fine

Hold me until it hurts
Squeeze the bad out of me
Let me be a good loving man
Give me love to keep me clean
You know I need to feel fine
So fine
So fine

Don't look into my heart
Don't look into my heart
There's nothing there to see
It's just an empty shell
For all eternity

Oh Susie Oh Susie
I'm so missing your love
Aching , hurting, crying
I'm so missing your love

Don't look for my smile
It's hiding upside down
Never to be seen again
Trying to hide the clown

Oh Susie Oh Susie
I'm missing your love
Aching, hurting, crying
I'm missing your love

Don't look for who I am
Not even in my passport
I'll never be the same
Adding total up to nought


Oh Susie Oh Susie
I'm missing your love
Aching , hurting, crying
I'm missing your love

Don't look into my heart
There's nothing there to see
It's just an empty shell
For all eternity
How ferdly werdly drunk am I
Well I'm not , I'm just decrepit
I'm shaking my head at my work
I hope one fine day here where it's nice , I'll be good
It's PENALTYPITSTOP

Trees a jolly good fellow
My left foot
Is of a hoot
Dancing wild
Like a small child
She's my despair
Not very fair
My twigs wriggle
No, not a giggle
It shakes my bark
Not a funny lark
Leaves go brown
Making me frown
I want them green
For Halloween
I'll have to slap
That young flap
Until she's nice
With good advice
Nows she's done
I'll have my fun
Looking at birds
In their nests.

Here he is
It's him
I know it
It is , it is
Let it be him
That swaggering
I'm it walk
That dinky great
Ginormous smile
Just like mine is
Right on now
Our smiles
A mere breath away
They've intermingled
Already across air
Like this knee shaking
Is really kissome
The kiss lovenly
Welding our lips
He taught me how
He's so very good
We taught each other
Our love making
We love each other
But not now in love
TONIGHT !
TONIGHT !

Not likely
Your mother and father
Do naughty things with each other
They do all the things we laugh about

No No they do not
Not my mother and father
They are good , they wouldn't do that

Oh yes they really do
Why do they share the same bed
You must try to understand


Look my lovely parents
Share the bed for a good reason
To be warm in the winter

Besides my father
Always , yes always
Wears his pyjamas in bed.

Raining hard
More and more
Stronger now
Cat ran in
Soaking wet
Making straight
For my food
Cleaned my spoon

Ran away

Because I write
As it is
And can't look

Of what I dream
Of what I dream
You know full well
Of what you dream
I haven't a clue

Of what I am
Is something clear
Of what you are
Is something out there

Of what I sense
Is something so good
Of what you sense
Is well away from me

Of whom I love
Is someone like you
Of whom you love
It is not me.
They're coming, they're coming
Running, jumping, and floating
Zooming, racing and abseiling
JUST A DOGGARN MINUTE
These are not for sleeping
They're are not very woolly
And not going over fences
They're going into my mind
What are these varmints
I know , yes , I know
These are words, sentences
Paragraphs , and silly ideas
But they'll not help me to sleep

Today is our joy
When I talk with you

Could be sorrow
Today is my joy
Maybe not tomorrow
Maybe not at all

Why are you trying
Why are you trying
To steal my heart
You're in for trouble
Plunging in the dart

For a consuming love
Hold off for a while

A wonderful friend for me
But give me some time
I need it, can't you see.

Paul you are but a fool
You said these words
Penelope , I am but a fool
Darling I love you
Though you treat me cruel
And you said mushily
You hurt me and made me cry
And if you leave me
I will surely die
(thanks to Paul Anka for these words)
Now you know you little sniveler
That's not true
Cos I did leave you
And I was planning
All my black stuff
Extremely fetching
For your funeral
It's just like you all do
Promise this
Promise that
You little liar
'I will surely die'
Much more like
I will surely drink
Sing to another.

Paul , I've made a small error

Oh  Paul , you have been misled
When I made you cry so much
That was just a little test for you
'Little sniveler' How cruel was I
I cannot live without you now
My cup for you overflows
My unseemingly pretense , not fair
You are my world , my everything
(thanks whoever for the last line)
How could I have tried to let you go
How very silly , the episode was
I'll be in your loving arms soon

Oh by the way
Congratulations
Upon winning the Euro millions
Another day for Jonathon James
Eyes open in tiny smokey slits
Hoping , all day will stay in gloom
One drink did this to his head

Yeh one more drink than eight
Just one little drink couldn't wait
To split his stupid ***** head
Chaining him to his lazy bed

He dares not smoke his last cigarette
In case he coughs away his heart
And his fat head leaves his body
Looking up from beneath his bed

Ha has to make a few little steps
He has a crying desperate need
When he does , he'll feel so dizzy
But away from his bed he must go

He needs to build his caffeine level
But wonders how it will be done
Then he turns to the noise at the door
And in comes coffee on a tray

He and his girlfriend Joanna May
Sit up together slurping away
The day's getting better and better
Another day for Jonathon James.

A sad look
Today I was walking
Away from the café
Of internet usage
Where one can't get a coffee
When I saw a good friend
Without his cancer ridden wife
Who is wheelchair bound

He gave a big smile to me
Of which I readily returned
Somehow though he'd shrunk
Not quite his normal self
As we neared, he told me
She had died the other day
In quite a quavery voice
My heart went out to him

I couldn't help but say
'Okay if I hug you'
I did so without awaiting a reply
He said 'You are making me cry'
As I am right now , writing this
But like him, it had to come out.
Deep breathing.
Walking through clouds of love
Over fields of happiness
Along rivers of rippling laughter
Smiling like the sun in the sky
My journey through my world of life

Will this road of beautiful thoughts
Last through growing of giant trees
Endless rainbows of colourful ideas
Of meeting layers of wonderful people
Seesawing through their world of life

Clinging to the ceiling of fun
Helping myself to fruits of joy
Watching whirlpools of minds at work
Sometimes floored by sheer delight
Swinging through my world of life

Sparring against deep depression
Soaring above my plight of rejection
Hoping with a lifting heart
I'm breaking out of my fragile shell
Waking up to a better world of life.
You had no right to leave me a note
Such a cheapjack note of betrayal
You wrote in your measly sly note
And I quote with tears streaming
'You no longer belong to my heart'
How dare you say that your lover
Is no longer worthy of your heart
And further more, my strong anger
Is , because worst of all
You **** well beat me to it.

Ever and a day
I love you in every way
I want to squeeze you tight
Right throughout the night

All over and around
I love to hear your sound
I want to love you tight
Hold you with all my might

Keep me in your arms
Fill me with your charms
Never throw me away
Don't ever stop your play.
Lovers betwixt heart and when
Every moment with you
Tis like a teardrop astray
No telling its quiet demise
My lips dare touch yours
As indeed , favour returned
When next , my handsome beau
So much I need to renew
Now time is in such disarray
We know not our next caress
We can but make a lovers tryst
And hope our love entwines again.

Empty seat
Coming into his station
Slowing right down
There he is standing
Outside my window
He gives me a smile
I give him one back
He's moving slowly
Towards the door
I sit remembering
Our bursting lust
Spread every where
Day after lovely day
No end in sight
I move my tight fist
Nails of a hornets bite
I touch the seat
I turn to my left
And gaze at emptiness
A cascade of tears
Avalanche down
My crumbling face
Trying to form icicles
On my wobbly chin
My great sob
Shattered the silence
Of the carriage.

Who is this scraggy scruffy person
This woe begone urchin of words
This so called writer of poetry
Who cannot write for pregnant toffee
Who always thought of riches in pocket
But now has to eat those wastely words
No good will ever become of this work
Let penaltypitstop ride her nonsense

Who is this , I'm it penaltypitstop
Well I may indeed very well truthfully say
It is me !

Always doing things
Hand up my skirt
Down my best knickers

He doesn't do it daily
Only !

So comfortable
So safe
What's this
Upheaval
Great force
I'm being pushed
No I'm not
Yes I am
This power
Upon me
Rises
And falls
This pushing
Is stronger
Squeezing me hard
I'm stuck here
Half and half
Another great squeeze
Now , I'm in the cold
Upside down now
Someone is smacking
Yes smacking
My bottom
And making me cry.

Is there any sense
Is there any sense
In anything we do
Is it so stupid
Anything at all

Please please tell me
I know nothing
Nothing at all

Why should people die
Shot through the head
Is there any reason
For barbaric ways

Please please tell me
I know nothing
Nothing at all

Is there a just cause
For bombing towns
Is it for self ego
Or to pass away the time

Please please tell me
I know nothing
Nothing at all.

No matter
No matter how one fights
He cannot win
He can use any means at all
Cudgels, guns, knives, forks, pitchforks , or darts
He can puff himself up
He can rant and rave
He can cheat and lie
But
He cannot win
If there's no one there to fight/

It's incredible
It's incredible
I love you
After all
It's only you
But , not only you
It's you

It's amazing
All you are
After all
It's only you
I know I said it
But it's true

All this time
I've ignored you
After all
It's only you
You've got me
Through and through

I can't believe
I want you
After all
It's only you
I'm so happy
I've got you.

Listen all you people
Whoever you are
Whatever you are
Wherever you are

Is there any sense
In anything we do
Isn't it so stupid
Anything at all

Please please tell me
I know nothing
Nothing at all
Why is it so ?

People do die
Many many shots
Fired through heads
Is there any reason
For these barbaric things

Is there any just cause
For bombing towns
Is it for a self ego build
Or to pass away the time

Please please tell me
I know nothing
Nothing at all
Why is it so ?.

Answering a question
I sat on the suspended bench
Charlotte on one side of me
And George upon the other
Leslie they both said to me
At exactly the same time
Why is it we seem so safe up here
Ah Ah I said secretly to them
It's because we three are special
Why special they both said
Because magic is here with us
The other day a princess was born
A little sister for her brother
Oh they said sounds good to us
Will we ever meet them both
Yes said I when the two of you
Stand before a mirror in a palace.
