Poems in 140 characters or less...


......


an invertebrate toper - he
he - always takes the seat
below the quiz poster - he
he - drinks brown and mild

......

 if everything is matter
we could walk to the clouds
by naming the necessary components
and filling in the gaps

......

where once mammoth chewed fern
now children build castles of sand
behind' blood stratified cliffs
hold the history of this land

.......

she rises from a winkle shell
      my little affair
 so brief our time
      in shared embrace
as two buses divulged
      at the lights

..............

 wrapping paper nibbled
by hungry mouse fingers
to remind the old
 that birthdays matter
more than numbers

........

 breaking news
UKIP conlabdem non-U
Putin not an acronym
Syrian syrup man gets porridge
post Ferguson Man U win

 ...........

 breaking news
David Steeles moral conscience
 found shriveled
 in Cyril Smith spanking party
foetus joins class action

............

 riding on rails
on cold misty evenings
washing of tea things
      flash past reflected
      soap opera
viewed in square window panes

........

 she - and by this I make no judgement, for there are female plumbers and brain surgeons I was simpl - no room for the poem now

.............

peace:)
