CARVERY DESSERT VOL1

& grandpas line in

The Hunt

where he says he 

'couldnt believe in fairies
until he was
140 / 150
years old'

well it rings 

with an importance
to me today 

& then some


~

& its up there with

'hitler painted roses'

&

'its a test to provoke 

an emotional response'

in my thinking backpack
thats lightened now
on my 

trekless & feckless

strange & sedentary trails

EVEN GOOD BOMBS ARE BAD

be the change 
you want to see 
in the world . . .

i 
get
it

it
sounds 
ok

sounds
good

achievable

but is it 
sop for our 
conscience

or could 
it really 
work . . ? 

~

so im nice
to my neighbour
even
when 
he
brings up
his pet subject
of those blockpavers
those romanian blockpavers

and all the stolen vans

( the dimlo arsehole Sun-faced beer-sack )

i guide him away
with soft disagreement
like
hes
a
simple child
parroting a bad uncle 
so 
it 
doesnt become a Thing

and
anyway
it
all
falls down
at the next news broadcast

its bombs galore again

on 
the
death tv

~

i propose
instead
we all
paint roses

maybe even everyday

because
hitler 
was the change
he wanted to see
in the world

soon
after 
he had stopped
painting roses

GARDEN OBSERVATION

thug magpies bullies
build
a
nest
in the new blossom
of the apple tree

wild garlic stinks and sprouts
up
out
the
unmown jungle lawn

its one of the better things i do

to
quietly

o b s e r v e

and
let
it all be
