BOHEMIAN Jan 20, 2024

Show notes

A poem written for two old Bohemians who through reckless behaviour in a younger year did so destroy the fragile entity of love , and are now left with just the ghost of her to haunt their old empty hearts .

FATE ON A PLATE Jan 19, 2024

Show notes

The macabre story about a great grandmother who's ashes were made into a bone china plate by her broken hearted lover , this practice of using powdered human bone in pottery still continues to this day with artists such as Crow and Kraft who call it crafting cremains .

REDEMPTION Jan 18, 2024

Show notes

To port a vicarious redemption on behalf of someone else is a burdensome weight the preachers daughter still carries hers each moment of the day a beautiful quiet soul who was given the substitution of sin by her callous caretaker , her atonement isn't due any time soon .

THE TRUTH Jan 18, 2024

Show notes

The human hunter gatherer brain is so very hard to truth train but maybe not if you start using the new silicon scopolamine dream and drip feed it daily with some digital dopamine served up from our omnipresent Turing machine.

LESBIAN MAN Jan 18, 2024

Show notes

A poem I wrote about an angry old man I know who was freed from his angst after receiving estrogen hormone therapy for prostate cancer. It liberated his feminine side as well , and now, he's a much happier person since they've unleashed his lesbian libido.

A SONG FOR NINA Jan 17, 2024

Show notes

A song I wrote for Nina's birthday she's lock down with covid and the kids a soft swing song to say we all do love you take care xx

GODFREY Jan 17, 2024

Show notes

A musing about the craziness of the Boer war and how lord Kitchener was more obsessed with his missing pet starling showing terrible emotional distress whilst all around him in the Boer war hundreds of thousands of people were dying of disease and starvation due to his scorched earth policies especially women and children in the first ever concentration camps with conditions worse than those of the ones in Nazi Germany , thank heavens he's not here to sort out the coronavirus .

THE IMMACULATE CREATION Jan 17, 2024

Show notes

a musing about an artist girlfriend and her crazy cultural crew, their works of art or gestation periods of genius seem to carry similar traits and time scales to those of real pregnancies .

GLUTTONY Jan 17, 2024

Show notes

I was quite horrified to read that humans are responsible for the slaughter of three billion animals each day. I wrote the poem in a pompous manner after listening to a hunter talking about his blood sports. He believed it to be his righteous privilege to kill, similar to royalty who once regularly indulged their palates with the flesh of endangered species. Some are still doing so today by buying licenses from secret, corrupt African auction houses. In many poor countries, gluttony and obesity are seen as status symbols held in high esteem. It's a way of portraying one's wealth.

JAGUAR Jan 16, 2024

Show notes

In the swinging sixties, it was fashionable to own a car, especially a Lady Gaga Jaguar. Then, you were truly nouveau riche—a make-believe millionaire, the fake faux movie stars. Members of my family and their friends were just like this. Usually, their balloons burst into bankruptcy, debt, and divorce. Too much money in young hands is akin to mixing desire with hellfire.
