What a wonderful world...

A loose door-jamb, alight left on

The oldest national lottery

Enter Kaleidoscope-Go-Darkly

Come to spoil my party

Smell of feces lingers

Echo of light fingers

Cold comfort blankets

Steeped in creeping anger

Flatfoot comes poking

Compounding my misery

Grinding pestle and mortar

Adding insult to injury

If only this, if only that,

If only in my guts -



Creepy crawling



All the creeps go creepy crawling

Same thing every night

How can stealing candy from a baby

Seem alright?



Corvino, carrion crow

Skulking with his mobile

Slippery peat-bog eyes

Stick-on smiley smile

Small print like quicksand

Not a wooden leg to stand on

Sinking through my stomach

The ground beneath me gone

Free-fall, call Ophelia

Clutching at straw

Mixed with bloody feathers

From scruff of neck of crow

Johnny go! Johnny gone!

Too much to drink in your tum-tum-tum

See this finger, see this thumb -

See this fist and watch it come!



Creepy crawling



All these creeps go creepy crawling

Same thing every night

How can stealing from a baby

Seem alright
