Kayak, and nonsense
FAINT, I might, if I were the fainting type, at your exceptionally
OVERT and unsubtle suggestion that I should think of a
REFIT for this more than somewhat unseaworthy, and possibly a little geriatric,
KAYAK. Bloke I maybe, but I know you do it out of love.
KAY, in the garden there’s a YAK!
(REF comes in to decide on IT.)
O, it eateth the verdant VERT!
(FAIN, it looks like thee to a T…)
Steer Past
REFIT after nearly scuppered by the ferry,
FAINT wavy blue a bad idea, now color schemed
OVERT–bright orange, with lights and air horn at hand,
KAYAK saying “look at me”, or, rather, “steer past”.
Rapids
OVERT warnings ignored, their voices
FAINT over the roar of the rapids; the battered
KAYAK chauffeured toward the falls:
REFIT the least of all concerns.

First steps in love
CLOUD meanders over the sunshot field; good
REHAB for a man of my years and modest wisdom;
WHINE away – yes, I do – along with the bee and
THORN bird, impaled as he or I might be, in the heart.

Veni, Creator Spiritus
CLOUD beckoning with dry earth’s relief-yet
THORN will grow alongside stalk and leaf,
REHAB of self is not rebirth,
WHINE tinged voice in future will signal spiritual dearth.
Desperation
CLOUD of dust chasing the Doppler-ed
WHINE of the jet escaping from its
REHAB of fuel and repairs––physics and gravity always a
THORN in the side of desperation.

Woke: awake!
BROWN-minded from despair, and all those
WOKE-Nigglers who say how much they care; O-
VARY the tune a little, Wokes, let me play happily just for once in a
FIELD where privilege and offence aren’t niggling at the rest of us folks!
