Haiku Heights




please give it a rest
you are a stone in my shoe
an irritation




this stone is my friend
it's more truthful than a lot
of theologians




found guilty by law
stoning is the punishment
we turn a blind eye

For The Weekend



It is Friday
The fog has lifted
The sky is bright blue

My favourite day
of the week
Feel like going
straight to the airport
getting on a plane taking off

Don't do things like that anymore
Will be going soon enough ..must book ticket
like normal people do

A Happy Weekend to y'all!

Jottings




i awake to horns
not car horns, fog horns on the
harbour, i like it

it's Thursday morning
we are the leaders of time
and that's about it

it's thursday evening
i must prepare food

i would prefer to write

i will contemplate
the three positions of
predestination
while making the fish
and salad
before i go to theological
war with my religious nemesis
albert the convert

humourless
charmless devious
but encyclopaedic
in his knowledge of
ontology

maybe i'll watch a rerun
of bridget jones instead
and paint my toe nails

Poetry Jam and Three Word Wednesday





Words..darken liability badge 

To remove you from my mind
darkens my joy

I have done everything  to make
my feelings known to you
apart from wearing a badge declaring
I love you

Friendship is just a liability
in circumstances such as these
so I bid you adieu

Haiku Heights




St Mary's Cathedral




Sydney Opera House

the french turned it on
'sydney vivid' it is called
rainbow opera





dancing with the nymphs
he found a new lease of life
it's never too late




some things never change
dad dancing the apache
after a few beers




this comes as a shock
things will have to change 'round here
my name's not dolly





you're joking sweet thing
' almost french' i don't think so
a lousy sequel

A Dverse Trip



Leovi image

Flies in the buttermilk shoo fly shoo
Lost my partner what'll I do
Honey stripes toffee amber  boo hoo
Trippin'  on the beach my darlin'

What are those sand crabs doin' to you
Lucy in the sky green ice blocks too
I'm a little teapot so are you
Trippin on the beach my darlin'

The jeweled giant clam is singin' a song
Happy little vegemite he got it all wrong
There's a hole in my bucket ding dang dong
Flippin' out on the beach my darlin'

I saw a giant prawn in the sky
Trying to avenge the sad meat pies
Paddle pops tim tams give me a high
Trippin' on the beach my darlin'

Yoohoo!
