Take a Break and Savour a Tsunami ..
By Jenny Ross
|
Weddings and grandchildren, biscuits and pets
(Divorce and brats, obesity and vets...)
Serial killers, transvestite husbands,
(Bearded van drivers, strange long-haired busmen)
Sights from beyond the grave, twins reunited,
(Editor desperate, reporter near-sighted)
Help, I'm an alien! Honest, I am!!
(I'm so fucking sick of deleting this spam)
Hey there, T.A.B! We may have a STORY!!
(Hang on a minute, I've got morning glory!)
|
|
You'll never guess what? There's been a tsunami!
(Just hang on a min til I've slapped me salami...)
No, honest mate, it's a fucking big wave!
(Oh shit, I suppose I'll to get up and shave)
Hey, people have died - men, children, grannies!
(That's all very well, but were any of them trannies?)
Oh come on, there must be a leader in this?
(Oh ok, then mate - let me finish this piss)
We could ask the survivors just how they felt!
(As long as they're speaking from below the belt)
Wow mate well done, we've got the front page!
(The first and last time that I get a good wage...)

Poetry - Birdsong and Dreaming By Craig Livings
|
|
I see you lying there confused, alone
In your own world away from me
I wonder what you're dreaming when you lay there oh so peaceful
I wonder if you're dreaming of me

Right down to It's very Soul.
The Human, just one stage of Life

Bucket in one hand
Spade in the other
Don't go too far
Were the words of my mother
Sand between my toes

Poetry - Occasionally. By Lee Cassanell
|
|
Sometimes I'm a Bastard
Sometimes I'm the Pope
Sometimes I don't bathe for days
Sometimes I drop the soap.
Sometimes my eyes are open

Poetry - An Old Man's Afternoon By Maurice Fairfield

In a would be poets' pub
Smoke stained
Dusty, (that's the pub not me)
And some of the would be poets too
If truth were told, as truth must be

In the end
you have to settle for the moments
in between
everything else.
You get in from work

Poetry - Xmas 2004 By Anonymous
|
|
It's August, but the adverts already bawl,
Come, consume this festive Yule!
Why be different? Follow that trend,
And get to the shops to spend, Spend, SPEND!
To get the kids something fantastic,
Don't stress with wonga, just flash ya plastic.

Poetry - The Morning after... By Lee Cassanell
|
|
Four in the morning your eyes start to flicker
Mouth is a mire of tobacco and liquor
What happened last night?
Who's to blame for the slaughter?
Lips stung and dry call for Aspirin and water.

I love you like a daydream
Like an opened pack of Rolos,
I love you like the summer
Like a Jimi Hendrix solo,
I love you like the ocean loves and laps at every wave,

Poetry - A Case of Silly String and Whatever Next By Steve Rudd
|
|
Money is the root of all evil,
A positive thought that's not shared is a waste.
So what if I've got an inferiority complex?
Insecurity is so simple to evade.
If you give me a dollar I'll trade it for a book,
Second hand glances deflect scathing good looks.

Poetry - InSectEyes By M D Tasker
|
|
Blackheaded cockchafers
Skittered through dream grass pastures
Their stench in the stale bedroom air
I inhaled sharply, breaking the surface of my sleep
Time unfolding forwards, infuriating already, fast in its creep.

Poetry - Schoolboy Ethics By Maurice Fairfield
|
|
We're not going to cut and run
We'll stay till the job is done
We're hard men here in Australia
We'll hang tough and never fail ya
Socialists and Greenies may
Live to fight another day.

Poetry - Bollywood in Half a Minute By Jane Foster
|
|
Two people meet and fall in love
But they can't be together,
Because of religion, or caste or something
So they go behind a tree
Sing a song about it
Dance in a cornfield for a bit

Poetry - Life In The Balance By N. Sheppeck
|
|
A mothers hope a heart that's torn,
To see her helpless one and all.
Afraid to think of better times,
She dwells on dreams that should be hers.
A bitterness betrayed by love,
She hides her tears from those she loves.

Poetry - Bridge It, Jones By Jane Foster
|
|
The archetypal Bridget Jones
Wants less flesh around her bones
To look like all the movie clones,
That's our Bridget Jones.
And every bar where'er you roam
Has turned into a Bridget zone

Poetry - The Final Kick By Michelle Dee
|
|
The beautiful game it is not.
Your team may well be unbeaten,
what about the innocent victims
who fall prey to vicious attack.
Hooligans spoiling for a fight
a score to settle before the landlord
