Stop
Stop What you’re doing! Nothing will ever be the same again But then it never was. This was meant to be a poem, vaguely haiku. If it confuses you don’t worry it confuses my mother too. None of my family like it, except Gavin who said “Deep” but then again saying anything negative especially to…

Job Thieves
I know you’re kinda peckish mate Let’s head down to the fence! Our replacements think they rate, But hell do they look tense! They’re whizzing past at top speed, Stealing all our jobs! While we relax ‘n have a feed And yell out they are knobs! But eat up mate so they can see How the…

I’m Sick
I’m sick with a cold, I’m feeling real old, I wish I could just stay in bed! This poem I wrote, Talking tears up my throat Almost as much as my head. The couch is all lumpy, I’m feeling quite grumpy, Just a little more mad than a bear! Tried to work on my blog, But…

Kitten (Orion)
Bring me the head of that kitten; he’s jumped on the birdcage twice. Just the head of that kitten, his heart’s as cold as ice. No don’t bring me the whole kitten I only want his head. Oh look at his sleepy kitten eyes he looks all ready for bed. Oh what a sweet little…
