These Days

You blood related, blood related, Technologies never lie

As If I Controlled The Time
It was a rainy day, I’s returning home,
The road was not lonely, yet I’s alone.

Nick Carbo
The Sea
There are certain things -a spider, a ghost,
The income-tax, gout, an umbrella for three -
That I hate, but the thing that I hate the most
Is a thing they call the SEA.

Lead Soldiers
The nursery fire burns brightly, crackling in cheerful little explosions
and trails of sparks up the back of the chimney. Miniature rockets
peppering the black bricks with golden stars, as though a gala
flamed a night of victorious wars.

Little Snail
I saw a little snail
Come down the garden walk.
He wagged his head this way . . . that way . . .
Like a clown in a circus.

And so to-day- they lay him away-
the boy nobody knows the name of-

the doughboy who dug under and died

The Storm
Within the pale blue haze above,
Some pitchy shreds took size and form,
And, like a madman's wrath or love,
From nothing rose a sudden storm.

I sat beside the glowing grate, fresh heaped
With Newport coal, and as the flame grew bright
The many-coloured flame, and played and leaped,
I thought of rainbows and the northern light,

Constable M'carty's Investigations

In the middle house, and lodgings for a single gentleman.

Henry Lawson
The Pibroch's Note
The pibroch's note, discountenanced or mute;
The Roman kilt, degraded to a toy
Of quaint apparel for a half-spoilt boy;
The target mouldering like ungathered fruit;

"Just the place for a Snark!" the Bellman cried,
As he landed his crew with care;
Supporting each man on the top of the tide
By a finger entwined in his hair.

Fourteen years of woe were ended, Rama now assumed his own,

Pinup
The murkiness of the local garage is not so dense

drawings on the wall above a bench of tools.
Your ears are ringing with the sound of

The lion; and sunsets were begun.

The Toad
O who shall tell us of the truth of things?

After a storm. The sun had smelted down
As in a furnace all the clouds to gold.

The windows smeared with rain, the curtains torn,

Et Dona Ferentes

And the men of half Creation damning half Creation's eyes.
