Miss-taken identity
A MISS disguised as midshipman was made to walk the
PLANK. The narrow plank stuck wobbly out o’er the
LOWLY sea. ‘No bloke am I,’ she cried, ‘but dainty, beauteous CORAL.’ The pirates caught her quickly and took her out to tea.
No quarter
LOWLY booty with no appeal
CORAL rushes up as
PLANK is walked
AMISS and avast, the life of a pirate
Repentance
LOWLY is as lowly does
CORAL shots sting as
PLANK in me eye remove
AMISS of me thy specks to first see
Longwood
STAMP of fame already indelibly printed, little
BONEY still sat in his hacienda, pondering what
TRACE of possibility still remained, and could he
CLOVE his way back to glory once more, alas
St. Helena was no Elba, and he was after all, tired
Stuck
LOWLY sponge hasn’t left his
CORAL reef all his life, eating
PLANKton, thinking about one exhilarating night when
AMISSissippi River catfish turned up.

The Box in the Attic
STAMP collection, photographs half forgotten,
BONEY hands digging, investigating, a
TRACE of longing, regret, memories of
CLOVE tree grove, younger legs running.
