Got a cat
That wears
A hat
Got a spider
Who sat
Down beside her
Got a horse
That went of course
Got a pet tuna
Who lived
In a can
Had a budgie
Who flew into
A fan
I’ve got a zoo
Don’t no what to do
Help me out with
This stupid rhyme
All the giraffes
Are stuck in time.
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Attractive and evil
My black witch
Beautiful and ugly
A heartless *****
A minefield
Held together
In tattooed skin
Sweet and toxic
Resides within

Slowly I walk
Heavy of foot
Mind befuddled
Black as soot.
Thoughts so dark
Nodding the head
So so tired
I need my bed.
Mile upon mile
On cobbled stone
Cold and wet
All alone.
In bed sit land
No welcome mat
I go to sleep
And that’s just that.
I pray not to see
Another day
Stuck inside a
Stephen king play.
Is anyone out there
Got a nice place
To stay
these boots
Won’t last me
another day.
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Ridden a cycle in
Continuum of space
Walked the line
A boot ,one lace.

Swam five oceans
Sailed the seas
Still Nobody believed
In me.

Played golf
Upon the purple moon
Made love
To Madonna was
Around about noon
Tore more self
Inside out I
Had to set myself
Free
just to get
The judge to
Believe in me

Played football
Under the sea
Had Stalin and ******
Around for tea
It’s getting harder
To believe in me

Surfed on the planets
Through the astral plain
Danced naked with
Marilyn munro
In a shower of
Pink rain.

Never never going
To be free
The mirror in my
cell still
Believes in me.

One flew over
The cuckoos nest
Making this crap up
I’m doing my best
I really do not know
Who is who please
Can you leave
A sweet little review.

Marcel deauchamp
Of poetry
Fine writing is
Not my way
Wordsworth was talented
Shakespeare had his play.

Allen Poe
thee main man
Byron wrote some
Shanties
When people read my
Poetry they put
poo poo
In there *******.

Marcel deauchamp
Of poetry
I did the best I can
People read my poetry
And flushed it
Down the pan.

Marcel was an artist
With his own style
If you see his artwork
This will make you smile
Mark Bell Nov 2024
I begged
You to stay
Even though
You played away
The love
I kept
The rug on
Which  we slept
Will always
Be there
Please comeback
And let us share.
Who am I
To ask this of you
These cold nights
I feel so blue
If you will not
Come back to I
I have no more
Tears to cry
I’m by my self
I shall rest
Sleep and wish
You all the best.

Elvis the rat
Was caught
In a trap
It passed away
Funny that.

Lennon the dog
Died yesterday
Sgt pepper cried
That was okay.

Sinatra the fish
Slipped quitely away
He had the look
Got caught on a hook
He should have done it
my way.

Bowie the budgie
Died on the wing
Jean jeannies
Voice fell silent
No more to sing

Prince the dove
Died today
His red corvette
Hit purple rain
Music now in the
stars above.

Holly the spider
Died without fuss
All his fans wished
He had caught
The bus
That was the day
The music died
