woebegone the wobbegon
couchant on the ocean floor
never gets to sing a song
or knock upon the door

my parents, tragically, stayed together...dysfunctional symbiosis

there is a young man in a bidet
been living inside it since D day
his landlord's a turk
who gave him a perk
How to survive on a pide

The difficulties in not working for Mister
F**k You

Ha what's it worth
being a comic ?
i mean all that gaslighting
takes it toll

rob me rouse me
rush me spike me
it's not exactly jolly
finding a show.

it's like being a kerb crawler
in your own backyard
(where Jon Glur's body
lies a smirking not grave)

it's like peddling hot water
while beyond a ship of fools
looks down to see you two foot tall
too small to save

you're nothing to kill for
or set comedic store by
nowt but reflex
keeps you high

maintaining the grin
throughout the bounds
of being stuck up a creek
gone to the hounds

like a christian
to the laughterhouse
except when down at the caff
amidst the echoes of one last laugh

Ha Bloody Ha

you've no taste for the tonic
immune to the buzz

you're a
precious problematic
lounge act just becasue

lounging 'neath
a lone cosmic star
is better than workin

seeker of a secret cabaret,
devoid of mirth,
stripped of glee,
a date in the diary's
paramount to your going far

little wonder
you pay no court
to the court jesters around
kitted out your star chambers
and made your stand

and
after years
of screaming blue murder
you arrive at Avalon
bound and gagged
an old man

they made a great find, i heard on the grapevine,
a demimondaine, a damn mundane
thing, but with a broad range of road rage.
A hottentot potentate what!

indiginous
indignant at being indigent
a trial separation
atrial difibrilation

a flamboyant windy day, the blue cloudless mirror up there reflects my own peculiar thoughts. for how can something so sunny be so cold? my mind vacillates also, between the old and broken and the new emerging. when my father was my age now he said he was an 'old man'. oh how his influence sticks

the comedy circuit needs a select commitee
(oh s**t it looks like it's got one)

Smoke and Mirrors

rumourmongers in their mill
tailor a grey area
where names
mudded
and dirtied
echo

the lancelot of gripes
pats me heavy
on the back
with an out of the blue
alright mate!
how male
how unprofessional

he pants
as if he doesn't recall
what he did
_________________

in life's sad interval
there is still a chance to put props in order,
learn my guitar in readiness

It is in a gap,
a moment like this,
- where it seems
anything can happen
and in which even
the most vigilant
get caught -
that citrus boy
will get his tuppence
