Wednesday 16/01/19 Brexit Fallout

Nothing much to say,
May’s defeat and disarray,
Extend the date now?

Article 50
Extend this or risk no plan.
We should vote again.

Hard and soft wet squibs
Brexit range of nonsense plans.
Fanatic failings.

Vote to save their skins
Vote of confidence today,
The day’s wet and grey!

The world’s tittering
These’s so much Civil unrest.
These are chaging times.

Monday 31/12/18 explanation

I am taking the opportunity to explain some of my thinking. Yes, it is wacky and little far out there, but I am comfortable with this.

I enjoy finding new right-sounding names for people in the news, Cycle Mauve (Michael Gove) is the Ponderable Peck and Bury for the Environment, I think.

There is Bum Hole Bump (Donald Trump) and of course, a bum hole bump is known as piles or to some ‘a pain in the ass’.

There is Borish Pun Son (Boris Johnson) and of course Too Greasy Grey the Grime Grinster (I will let you work that one out). It could also be Too Easy Day the Lime Ginster.

This is not about Haiku but they complement and enhance this Haiku Book. I still have to stay faithful to the 5, 7, 5 formats for the Haiku.

The Haiku’s my thing
I’ll do one or two daily,
On something I like.

A Haiku poem,
As complex as simple is.
As simple as life.

I need to write more,
The pen needs to kiss the page.
The words will follow.
