how bad?
is the question. :D
In Praise of the Mighty Thrusting Glaswegian Tower Block
Look at the tower block! It rises so high.
(That's why they call it a high rise)
It almost touches the sky.
Fly to to the top of the tower block
With your mighty imagination.
With the courage of a new formed nation.
And such a courage is needed,
A high sensibility as engorged
As that high tower block.
Don't demolish it!
Look at its height - on top of which you might sit.
Like Cortez looking down on Darian.
Pacific waters paralleled by the Clyde.
The tower was raised by a mighty tide.
That enormous Everest is fit to sit beside.
Hark! The loud explosions roar
reducing the might beast to rubble.
Its time has come.
And now there is only rubble.
And now there is some trouble.
As the unhoused seek another abode.
Perhaps they will all have to move abroad.
The great McGonagall told of a mighty bridge called Tay
And today I have given the mighty tower block its day.
And in a similar way - I'm not too modest to say.
Woe! In the sun it once shone, but now it is done.
Poor poured concrete erection you are indeed undone.
And flaccid you lay in the fields of hay.
Never to be seen again until judgement day.
And not even then, because only people get to heaven.
Oh poor insensible concrete prick, that has not sensibility.
You didn't even live as long as a tree.
And the force that through the green fuse slinked
Didn't travel an inch through your concrete flanks, methinks.
Poor great thing you will always be part of my heart.
And will live forever through my art.
Look on this (formerly) high tower you mighty, and despair.
Between it and the sphinx there was nairy a hair.
Oh sweet tower block!
As all boys and girls must come to dust
So housekeepers to your surfaces must
(In times past)
But after the Somme bomb YOU are dust.

Parker went through the wash today -
an ersatz baptism of water and fire...
Missed her when I went to jot a note -
(a search ensued) - I found her in the dryer
When I ministered to her needs and opened
up her shell - she displayed her righteous
indignation and gakked not unlike a squid

My goat had a headache
Wanted a Black Forest cake
But who will bake
Duck or drake
I dunno
Do you?
O summer's in the meadow and she walks on fertile feet!
I rush to taste her sweet embrace while in my glad trunk beats
A lover's heart that knows the art of spurring on a lady
To scale the heights of Cupid's sights and lie in shadows shady.
But woe! Alas! It comes to pass my lovely lass is passing!
For southward bound today I found the steely songbirds massing.
My lady gave me trophies she
Had stolen long ago.
Her former beau--
He’ll never know--
His name she scratched out with a blow
Before she married me.
It seemed he was disqualified
And I reigned in his place.
His winning face
Scarred with disgrace--
He humbly ran the human race--
Like him I also died.
Before my body went to rest
She had my coffin lined--
Her thoughtful mind
Could now unwind--
With trophies front, around, behind.
She gave me all her best.
Jack was a really bad boy
Loved by none
He played with swords
Longed for a gun
He dug for treasure
Found a dagger
And a rusted bayonet
With strong endeavor
With these in hands
He went to the town
All who saw him
At him would frown
Jack was befuddled
He missed his breaker
Returned to his senses
Discerning the undertaker
Bad turns into good
Good into bad
Jack recalled the saying
Of his dear late dad.
O autumn's gaudy perfume draws pictures in my nose!
Of harvest home and broken loam and chastity's repose.
Her wanton fruit slips from its suit imploring to be plucked;
While Auster's howl is full of fowl: he's birded, geesed, and ducked!
But why, fair girl, must you unfurl your cold, proud lips this night?
Our hour is past, now Boreas casts o'er you a shroud of white.
O winter is a frozen friend who slicks with sleet the way;
She drives me on o'er field and pond; I burn for sleep--but nay!
Her icy grasp my heartstrings clasp tight to her frosty breast;
On that cold deep I reap no of sleep, her guest, no blessed rest;
Until that morn her chilly scorn bedecks my cheeks with dew,
And dripping roofs my spirit soothes and sing of seasons new.
My lady, a great love of mine,
Is loved by someone who
Is strong and rich and, oh!, so fine,
When drunk his breath fills air with wine,
I wish he loved me, too.
And should she pause to think of me
In my dark hovel drear
While on his horse, her hands, of course,
Exploring, teasing manly force,
I’d wait for her right here.
But she will not stop by I know.
Let starry daydreams fade.
I still have Ann. I am her man.
She does her best and thinks I can
Pay more when she gets paid.
If you’ve ever wondered how the dragon caught the damsel you should rather wonder why and that will make you wonder about the knight and there’s another why for you.
I’ve wondered why the dragon kept feeding the damsel. Did he think the knight would be tastier or did he think that a single damsel wasn’t big enough by herself for a full meal?
And what about Mrs. Dragon long observing how her beast caressed those damsel curves? How long could patience keep her waiting?
Oh, sure. He’d reason with her, but right now she needs something meaty to flavor the evening soup and he doesn’t seem to be paying any attention.
