Barmy Blue's Bland Blog

To start off I'm officially thanking you all for being here, for reading my blog, for putting up with the pointless drivel and boredom and mainly to thank you for helping me when I needed you , it means a lot to me .
I'd like to thank all my subscribers, please don't unsubscribe!!
Sorry, I'm in a reasonably cheerful mood today. I don't know why. I was thinking of a poem earlier but I've forgotten it now (I was making it up you see) Why is it that you have to write it down the second you think of it because you'll instantly forget it? I've lost many a fun poem that way .
I could have a go at one now but I'm not feeling comedically poetic. Damnit. However, I do have a few poems I wrote in Life writing once. They're complete gibberish and mean absolutely nothing but I figured it'd be fun if they got published and a bunch of critics went over every word and then said that this was obviously a metaphor for that and that has a double meaning when it's really just random nonsense that doesn't even rhyme (because we're being taught specifically not to rhyme). How is it poetry if it doesn't rhyme? I still don't get it but hey, it's more fun this way. Here goes.
This first one is just crap I wrote which sparked my legendary (in my imaginary world ) Purple Chicken franchise. It all started because I thought what's the stupidest thing I can imagine right now? And I imagined a bright purple chicken on the floor in front of me.
Be warned it is not to be taken seriously.
You have been warned.

I saw a purple chicken,
Dancing on the floor.
His beady black eyes,
Followed the ants outside.
Blades of red grass,
Swaying on the sand,
Shielded the green cat,
Stalking her prey.
A lunge.
A pounce.
Silver blood,
And purple feathers.
The purple chicken is no more,
And the ants carry on as normal.

I showed this to my editing group. They pointed out there was a lot of colour .

Next is the haiku which immediately followed (because we were doing haikus then)

Purple chicken sits,
Summer ants are flying,
Chicken jumps and snaps.

I couldn’t remember when we get flying ants, I was pretty sure it’s summer because it’s hot, hence summer ants.
Ah, here’s a haiku I wrote on the same day (this was after I started the car make game in which I try to recognise car badges, as a result of watching Top Gear )
Volkswagen beetle
Beside the Ford Transit van
Silver Mercedes

I warned you not to take them seriously.
I could go on but I’ve run out of silly crap I scribbled down in lessons so I’ll have to go off and write some more.
Once again thanks for being there for me, I mean it really.
Thank you.

Haha, I didn’t say out
Oh, and note to all, I've given my fictional alphabet game a quick kick up the arse

I'd love to see how far we can go before we completely run out of names . Shameless advertising I know but it's fun .
