there is this morning,
a marble upon the keyboard,
i observed with horror,
a yellow one-with an arc of
blue-what is it doing there?
frozen and paranoid,
getting old-in the playground
there was only joy-care
was a future..

poem in less than a minute

at this rate i thought
i might be of interest perhaps
not to others but to my self

a lost elf..a creel and a rod
not much but the less you want
the happier you are..?

poem in less than a minute

i figured i was being ripped off
first by low wages and secondly
by high prices-a lost elf..

not much to be done about
that..but i tried to educate myself
for all that
see thinking is free..

you want to be paid

you want to be paid
for your work
and i want to be paid
for mine

you will not be cheated
and i will not be cheated
simple is nt it..

and yet in these silly lines
there is so much..
war and hate
hate and war etc..

i

i had a searching dream
this morning-it is usually
my guitar but this one was
my car or van to be particular..

what does it mean any oneirologists
out there,in searching i find many
but not mine..it is not desparate more tiresome..
there is so much to dream about..

dear crow

dear crow

a sad alien does´nt bare
thinking on
(they´ve been watching us on
spanish afternoon television..)
surely, they are not real
how would they be..

swollen and ghostly
to feel nothing
no see-no line or something
bijou tears and no gravity
with little spaced hankie
no love to take off..

post card from a blue alien:
arrived by the stone
some sort of gathering

we blended in-everyone
was friendly..tried e..
there was poetry

the sun rose and there
was splendour so
young and old..

met a black crow
he said hello..
missin home o..a..

sad alien swollen and ghostly..

dear lily

dear lily

i am not one for history
and as my father said
on an almost daily basis
you can prove anything with

statistics..but when i read that
50 percent of young people would
be happier without the internet
what does that infer..?

were we better off with a circle
of stones,then, with all this technology..
i,mean,imagine the peace and quiet..

i would miss youtube though
swings AND ROUNDABOUTS
if aliens were to come..
would they be sad too..?

crow..
