A few of my old poems

Archive: 8 posts


First one for the moderators. Can you work it out?

Acid Rain

Mellifluous, a smooth and even tone
Overt oppression jars this slickened tongue
Derelict the thoughts of addled men,
Sat pompous on a thrown of young.

Angst, the cold of a blacksmith’s steel,
Ready the anvil, hammer and fire.
Eschew the water, shape, not starve the blade,
Forgo the calamity of lustful ire.

Open hearts, the once was withered part
Or risk a turgid land of clod and weed
Lament the arid earth, breathe in the trees
Superfluous the acid rain so praise our seed.

.......................................

One for the Chavs (the word it's censoring here is a British word for cigarette. F.A.G):

*** and a can

Got me sen a *** and a can
Two black eyes cos I’m the man
Tattoos and dots on me face
Scars and jeans to hide me grace
Sovereign rings on every knuckle
Think we’re cool but our mover’s chuckle
Payin’ through their eyes and nose
So we can trash it with the bros
Shake it out and strut our stuff
Violence is a poor man’s bluff

Got me sen a *** and a can
A girlfriend and a brand new pram
Six stone nothing; always *****in’ < (Bit-chin&apos
‘Bout me flat without no kitchen
Fridge half empty, can half full
Take this pain and make it dull
Lines of coke to make life faster
Holes in doors, fists in plaster
Thinkin’ how love is felt
With the buckle on me old man’s belt

Got me sen a *** and a can
Map, a compass but no real plan
Plen’y of time to see the past
Check out the mold from which I’m caste
Through me tears I see me fate
Bits of love but stacks of hate
Bless me girlfriend that she chooses
A life with me and all those bruises
Her face broken, my face frowns
Are kids get the hand-me-downs…

....................

One for my home town:

Grimsby

You used to be a maze of wonder,
Of wooden swords and knights on bikes,
Of hidey holes and torchlight hunts,
Of kick ball fly and finger fights.

You used to hold amazing secrets
Down every empty alleyway;
Whispered spells on salty winds
That whisked me oh so far away.

You used to be a land of giants;
Big-handed men with grins of kings,
That pushed you with great gentleness
On roundabouts or on the swings.

But I grew up and so did you
And the giants disappeared.
The alleyways were barred for good,
Cos the knights are who we feared.

The hidey holes grew dark and grim
And the fights were not with fingers
But I swear that when I close my eyes
That other world still lingers…


................................

And one for fun:

Bumbling Burrow

In bumbling’ burrow of barrowill wood
Where the bumblebee Bernard was mumbling
An oath of a groat for cutting ones throat
While kicking a juggler jugglin’

“I swear I will kill’ ‘im,” he spat while a swillin’
And croonered a pooch name of saphron
The swirls of her hair shished shoulders of pearl
As she pranced by the splash of a lantern

Now Bernard’s big belly was fizzlin’ and smelly
Cos he’d gulped down a pig in a ploughman
And a rollery hip was givin’ jip
As he oooozed from the stooool by the barman

One jiggle o’ lard in garb stuffed wi’ cards
Saw our frigate a tillin’ for harbour
While her smothersome lips took dainty we sips
At a spirit that wasn’t her starter.

Well saphron had spotted poor Bernard Bee sotted
As he ploughed betwixt Erics and Chandlers
While with hot coals in her eyes and a tongue that defied
Bade keep off to the dogs and their handlers

The quake in thin lips slipped south to thick hips
When our vamp entranced Bee with her fumbling
And her serpentine paw made his overdraft more
As she winked at the gentleman juggling

Your first poem said Mods Are Fools. That kind of sounds like stirring up trouble to me :/

I'm sure the mods on this forum have a sense of humour and realise because it's an old poem that it wasn't aimed at this forum.
