December 2024 Collage Poem: Play the Odds

What happens if Terry the giant does

not touch wood what would Sally say…

but still he drinks his ever so nice tea.

 

What would happen if Father Christmas didn’t

stop drinking Jack Daniels throughout the rest

of the year?

 

Drunken Santa is crashing through the snow

You’re all on the naughty list

 

Pensioners too cold to take a stand

munch a million bags of Mo...

Shall We Meet December Soon?

Shall we meet December soon?

November is just for a week.

Shall we meet a new moon?

Will you show me the trick?

 

 

What have I noticed at my age?

The time flies, New Year comes.

I'll write carefully a new life page,

A page will be without any harms.

 

 

The time of the year suddenly changes,

I had no time to see many stranges.

I hope that my heart will be...

Swansea waves words at passing poets

New raging goals.

 

Kissing capitalism's ass and not mine

Highway traffic moves in waves,

Or should that be it crawls like a crab

 

Marrying a woman from East Texas

She cooked Christmas pudding for dinner each night

In peanut and r...

December Collage Poem: Disappointment - Part 2

Crossing over reflections

Mirroring his own life

 

Life is disappointing; but love is always

beautiful, even across dreary railway tracks

kniving through his childhood

 

Hair kissed under Homeric stars

Whatever the weather.

Twelfth Night

Twelfth Night

 

Pining with your sisters

in every other garden.

Laying used and violated

next to the shed.

 

Tinsel traces

like expensive jewellery

draped from your

denuded, coat-hanger, limbs.

 

Ribs of dry twigs

poke from your green dress.

Ripped and torn

by seasons greetings.

 

Where once your heart

beat fast and true
