THINKING OF THE CITY

Fanny said she wanted to play scrabble

picked up her cue and made a hundred break

The Riddler said scrabble is for rabble

Batman and Robin and that kind of freak

She shivers like crazy hates nudity

He shoots a double whammy towards her

She looks away thinking of the city

but the rotor lifts then sticks in her fur

If I had a relation in this town

she thinks I could beat that boo boy Riddler

equip me with a crib and dressing gown

paste him to the roof and call him fiddler

Like a jig-saw puzzle with missing tiles

central to her life another locus

she negates the future and walks for miles

putting the hex on his hocus pocus

Acre arcing she completes her mileage

crossing the diode bridge to Washington

pushing The Riddler into the silage

of his own mind the smell starts wafting down

She wished she could be gored by someone's horns

and vault into the ether not been born

SAVE LIVES

When the smoke detector on the ceiling

looks like an alien staring at you

it probably is

Venus and Mars

were never like this

Stay at home

protect the NHS

from your vain imaginations

What came first

the seed or the plant

the cod or the roe

the man or the woman

the sun or the earth

whose nose knows who

Hard chicken comes from

hard boiled eggs

broken eggs make

omelette and frittata

Is a baton a thing to hit people with

or a lump of French bread

make your own

Stay at home

protect the NHS

save lives

SEAPLANE PIXEL

In the belly of the ship

or the whale or the fish

diving in the deep end

Squirming digging for

worms deep deep down

in the belly of the ship

what yacht have you got

Saturday's are like that too

who knows what time they close

who knows what time they close

Deep deep down in

the belly of the whale

or the belly of the fish

What fish cod 'n' chips

what chips potato fries

what fries open your eyes

what eyes mince pies

What pies pork pies

more pies for your

bread and honey

keep your money

don't tell me lies

What's your name

Please Explain

Day Four

CONTROVERSY

Multinationalisation hasn't that been tried before

Colonisation empire building internal feuding

The clocks were ticking till the hour came and went confusion

All of the money spent on pay rises for the gentrified

Sit down order in the Commons chaos in the House of Lords

Missus Mayhem and your Oxbridge party chums boohoo uproar

Never mind the rough sleepers the disabled the job seekers

The unwaged and the working poor keep them begging on the floor

Okay if the leavers really don't know what they voted for

What about a referendum a general election

Some cast their vote upon the moat and it came back soaking wet

Let's have a vote for those that didn't bother to vote at all

Let's put the cat amongst the pigeons show the dog the rabbit

Chuck a Welly or three throw the boot in sideways hobnails up

Or should we turn the other cheek as the towers rise up high

Power mad they want to scrape the sky above our city streets

The ill gotten investment still pours in from banks in Brasil

Abu Dhabi and Hong Kong so what's so wrong with tinned corned beef

Fair trade coffee that some tea leaf said was free but where's the bread

The tainted bread and honey for the Tulip from hamster jam

The self-serve check-outs at the local store and that one world faith

Controversy of religiosity by the back door
