Why

Why did I enter the race if I've never sailed a boathouse before?
Why is the wind so strange?
Why did the rain gather in the street?
Why is the sun so Brighton beautiful?
Why can fish; fish?
Why might tomorrow already be there?
Why might tomorrow already be there?
Why did you repeat that lion?
Why is this hill so hard to ruin down,
and January come before Wednesday in my colender?
Why have I got a beard if I haven't got a beard trimmer?
Why are the joys of growing up?
Why are there fish walking down my street if they can't even ride a bicycle?
Why does the road beneath me move if I'm standing tall?
Why does coffee make my sugar taste so sweaty?
Why have I got birthday cake if she's not even my birth-mother?
Why can't sealions see?
Why do some people?
Why is the time?
Why when?
Why so confused am I am if so confused I am I - why!
WHY?


The couple in the old jag

Parked on the main drag
the couple in the old Jag
she finishing her nag
adds he's not much of a shag.
He finishes his fag,
calls her an old hag,
with permanent jetlag,
dressed in a dishrag,
she's not one to brag

She replies - scumbag!
His retort - old slag!
Then he raises the white flag.
Starting to gag,
she reaches for her handbag,
from red flag 
to green flag
she leaves in a huff!

Smart fridge tells smart speaker "we're out of low fat, high protein cheese!"
as timer goes off on smart watch - "healthy tea is ready"

...how smart is that!





All So Very Noisy

The noise paint makes whilst it drys.
The sound of sweat being produced by cyclists.
The deafening sound of a sunset.
All those noises brown hair makes when it gets dyed blonde.
The noise of an empty wine glass.
The noise a chair cover makes when no-one sits on it.
The din made by a beautiful view.
The noise grass makes as it grows.
The sound of the sun.
The neighbours - thinking.
The sound a two-piece suit emits.
The noise an idea makes.
The sound a curtain makes,
as it slowly fades in the sun.
The roar a leaf.
The sound of a stare.
The fretfulness of a hole.
The termoil of a stair gate.
The commotion of a candle.
The bedlam from your glasses.
The cry of a disconnected pair of headphones.
The disquiet of a plastic chair.
That noise carpets make.
Ceramic tiles on a wall.
The sound of history.
Gone off cheese.
A book.
Smoke.
Soil...

...all so very noisy!
