Awake in the Black Forest.

   At night, tides of debris,
    sediment and dross, flo
   to a swollen mass behind
   my tightly sealed eyelids.

     At dawn, rays of light
     prise a forced opening,
    releasing a ciliary flush
   of diurnal apprehension.

“ It’s said Leopards can never

                change spots "

       Does that mean location

                    or dots ?

      “ It’s the former, I believe "

        So, is that bad for Kiev ?

" No, Zelensky prefers Oligarch

                   yachts “ !

Ireland do you think he’d
agree to put it in Gaza as

I met a northern Irish

the passport office in
Dublin applying for an
Irish Republic passport
because of the Brexit, it
only occurred to me later
that because of how they
voted in the six counties,
he had become an anagram,
of the result, which ensued!

Incarcerated in laced prisons,

to silence our tongues,
a faint, but recognisable

B.R.O.M.B. is the abbreviation
of an amalgamation of a
situation in abomination by
dissipation of a nation in
segregation & humiliation
with an expectation in
deviation by procrastination
of delineation by a cessation
and violation to a predestination
of a unification by a precondition
without reservation, exploitation,
condemnation or expatriation.

So, the B.R.O.M.B. in Derry was
in anticipation of a preparation
an indication for a hesitation.

Exit is Brexit

Give a man a fish
It has to be a Trout.

But if its on a Friday
The day you voted Leave
And you are a Catholic
Vote for Mogg but not for Grieve.

Up in Scotland they have a choice
Sturgeon roe or there is Salmon
The Welsh prefer their Oysters
From the mountains of Aran Benllyn

Across the water in County Down
Where those bowlers make them frown
Arlene Foster and her DUPPY's

just as in Covid, the manufacturing
of a Brexit consent is being played
out with the highlighting of queues
maritime disputes and shortages.

But it is all a game, a deal has been
made, it just needs more oven time.
The majority voted for out, no deal,
so, Boris is trying to look a bargainer.

The general public buy this crap
every time about everything, it is
such an obvious ploy but why am I
constantly laden with enlightenment?

and despite all my
searching it is still
on the missing list.

It was a bit like a
keystone in an arch,
the main link to a poem
I was intending to write.

I'm in Lisbon and not a

so there is no point in
me putting up posters;

"English word lost

Attention Mallow Chamber
of Commerce, Rotary and
Bridge Club, Rich Hues has
put Mallow on his bucket
list as a must see before he
dies. Not impressed with
Venice, so lets hope that the
River Blackwater is flooded
when he comes. He would
also, like to visit Dan O'Mahony's

introduced to the O' Byrnes Family.

I pretended to be blind, for a day,

it might have been easier at night.

I had a stick, but no dog, although

I did manage to stand on a ****.


  Occasionally I was head butted,

  stationary objects, ******* poles.

  After changing sides, near walls,

  I was shinned by bicycle pedals.


Sightlessness has no colour and

buff, the title, is not banana in hue,

 yet those afflicted with impaired

  vision can easily identify them.


If I pretended to be blind for a night

it would be no different than the day,

  because dog turds, ******* poles,

bananas and pedals are all nocturnal.

Bully the nuclear watchdog

On a fission mission, ran off

In search of an isotope where

She was lead by her mistress.

Con the fusion expert, unclear

In his dyslexic report stated an

Actinide accident occurred as

A reactors guild of trade union

Agitators accidentally tuned in

To a local transmission known

As Radio Active and the signal

Sent a message in Morse to the

she was never ever. seen again.

In the 70s it was a
metaphor with many
uses.

In Catholic Ireland, a
bun in the oven meant,
pregnant.

But across the Irish Sea,
a bun in the hair was not
an innuendo.

Bunny girls were banned
over here, but I never did
find out why.

There is a castle in County
Clare called Bunratty, near
Durty Nelle's.

Somebody told me that
Nelle ran off to London
with a baker.

When she came back she
she started a small shop
selling Hot + Buns.

Now, there was something
cynically symbolic about them,
supposedly, with aphrodisiacs.

What’s Your Business.


            What’s your business cloud?

            All you seem to do is block

              Out the sun, bring the rain

       And ruin a perfectly blue canvas.

       You use our airspace as a lay-by

       Waiting for the next wind, you are

      A free loader, at night it’s the same.

      Would you look at the moon and its

Chameleon contortions even camouflage

   In order to peer through, it’s ridiculous

  The mariners can’t see the North Star.

And all that talk about Angels sitting on you,

Let me tell you that they are a pack of Lyre’s.

I’ve got a name for you, “ CLOUD NEIN “

          Because that’s your business.

Fire breaks in the forest
Differ in width, it depends
On tree heights, species
And the prevailing winds.

In written word it’s comma.

In the spoken word pending
On the question it can vary.

For example if you ask about
Brian Thomson/ Luigi Mangione
The response will be thus.

He didn’t deserve to be shot
