  1. What's for dinner, Mum?
    Hard to say. It could be beef
    But maybe isn't.
     
  2. In a blackbird's eye
    Around beloved finger
    Golden ring glisters.
     
  3. Burning deck threatens
    Sailors all abandon ship
    Brave boy stands his ground.
     
  4. What are we short of
    The milk of human kindness
    Leave an extra pint.
     
  5. Trashy girl I like
    Know that she will never change
    See the soul inside
     
  6. Sore swede shivering
    Aching and sweating, feeble
    Why this week, dammit?
     
  7. I like Billy Bragg :upyeah:
     
  8. Half a league onward
    Into the valley of death
    Rode the six hundred.


    Acks. to Alfred, Lord Tennyson
     
  9. A lump in my throat
    Getting all emotional
    My eyes filling up.
     
  10. Why compose haiku?
    Sometimes the spirit moves me
    Sometimes it doesn’t.
     
  11. Simple but tasty
    A chicken in the oven
    Lemon up its bum

  13. Once I saw a crowd,
    Host of golden daffodils
    Dancing in the breeze.


    [Acks. to William Wordsworth]
     
  14. Still the snow gathers
    Like a guest pushing his luck
    Surely time for spring
     
  15. Tramadol prescribed
    Pain has gone away at last
    Doped out of my skull
     
  16. Butterfly wing flaps
    Cause hurricane in Texas
    Chaotic effects.
     
  17. Hot beneath collar
    He rears up on his high horse
    Trampling chimera
     
  18. Drifting down gently
    Albino hexagon flakes
    Drifting up fiercely.
     
  19. In out in out in
    Rhythm forty strokes a minute
    Got to beat Cambridge.
     
  20. Olympic oarsmen
    American graduates
    It's not what it was
