Alpine Village in France
Coffee white treetops
at elevated heights.
Road awash with ski shoes
and Polaroid eyes,
to view a summit
adorned by a solar mood.

DIY SHAMAN
(il) legal highs,
get out of my way -
I’m the DIY shaman.
Heartbeat mastered to a drum
from Buffola replication.
Didn’t quite want to kill an elk or reindeer.
I breathe in the simulacrum of the plant world:
blue Lily for contemplation,
dream herb for lucidity,
iboga for the sontay! (health).
Mescalin for the walking spirit,
amongst ancient woodlands.

BRITAIN SINCE THE NOUGHTIES
Large bag of chips,
large arses and hips,
and large eyebrow slugs.
So many appliances,
but no large plugs?
Large fake tans,
large austerity plans,
and large Brexit stress.
No deal, referendum,
a TITANIC political mess.
Large vapour smoke,
large flavours to toke ,
and large girls are all the trend.
Mobility scooter highways,
and disabled park...

It’s Rock Jim, but not as we know it
The artiste picks up his award,
MTV ceremony charms,
mumbles his rap persona response,
but only famous to anyone under 14.
He’s not Lemmy, Bowie or Presely.
It’s just not rock ‘n’ roll.
Radio One and Gem
spin the same few songs,
to get them heard by everyone,
in delivery vans, commercial kitchens and the warehouses
of this once great musical land.
But it’s no...

Birds play war
Morning has broken,
dawn patrol and raids galore.
Jenny Wren dish dashes,
commando – like,
with her tommy gun cackle,
as tits explode amongst the briars.
The blackbird gives its warning call
as wood pigeons glide in,
streaked like American Mustangs,
D-Day striped.
The sparrows mob the hedgerow bocage;
small arms in the fray
for the bird table.
