Latenight stanzas of Doggerel
By Chu Nin

There where two taxi driver types
Sandpaper cheeks they bore
Stood akimbo unto a sooty subway staircase

There walked past a whore
Twas their sister they swore
She span in the dark drippingness
And the two types of inner London, guided will

Realised! With all their might
That she might not have been their sister

The girl had an overpowering sense of
Something else about her
And these two over-coated, dandruff ridden
Corpses wondered at the same time...

Spice here it's the price for a hard fast grime insect.

Poetry - Two Coppers In A Subaru By Joe Hakim

Poetry - Someone Else's Songs By Michelle Dee

Poetry - Hulling It By Nicholas Long
I love Hull, one letter from Hell.
Hell-hole Hull, the bottom of the boat, arse- end of England.

Not barth, the southern way.
It makes me smile to say its name. Read more...

Poetry - Shadow on the Porch By Patrick Henry
A figure sitting on the front porch sets a portrait
Of the Deep South vitally as a sweet song At Sundown:

Poetry - Ophelia By Lucy Arnold
As a daughter of the inner city circus, I find sleep too quiet.

In silence it watched you too.    Read more...

Poetry - (I Ain't No) Corporate Cocksucker By Nicholas Boldock
Someone chained me to a desk and handed me a phone
They gave me a pile of invoices and left me on me own

It took me just a week to bring the company to its knees
But I somehow got away with it cos nobody knew it was me Read more...
