Inspire Me

I chose to keep a poetic diary
when they chose to fire me
these things inspire me
and each time they hire me
i wait for that talk
where they tell me to walk
and try to make me pity them
i'm phlegmatic or i have phlegm
sometimes they're mutually exclusive
depends if i'm feeling abusive
i don't go and get drunk
but man, i am an angry punk
and you can guarantee behind this smile
is more than a half a pint of bile
to go and tell you what to do
with you and your useless world view

some kind of sense

eating hard boiled eggs
reading good poetry too
makes some kind of sense

I eye

I eye you he said
sat smiling strangely at me
i poked his eye out

prophylactic

prophylactic sense
stretch it over your head now
guards against ideas

haiku like you

it is very short
you say you're not a midget
i am not convinced

the fall haiku

the fall's mark e smith
he spouts scathing invective
scattershot mind-bomb

the jam haiku

weller and foxton
dig the new breed, setting sons
shoot eton rifles
