The washing machine
Splashing! Crashing!
Against the global
Glass door
I look through the window
To see the little earth
Tumbling to and fro
The washing machine
Polluted and free
Splish! Splash! Crashing!
Against the globe
Rather like the earth tilting
Shaking!
Earth-quaking
Wiz wazz splash!
I see all the colors
Going around
I see the clothes
Like people
Tossed around like dolls
In the hands
Of a careless child
This is all very wild
Soapy splash crash!
Global warming
Red light flashing
Washing machine warning:
She is about to explode!
With clothes overload
Warning! Warning!
Red flash booming
Rather like lost souls
Not knowing their Life-Savior
All you clothes
Get out of the water
I look through the global window
Suddenly
I see myself on the other side
Drowning with the clothes
Going through
The rinse cycle
Going for a spin now
(Unfortunately
Not in my new sports car!)
Splish! Splash! Crash!
Help me someone!
Help me please!
Splish wiz!
Around I go!
On spin now!!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!
Final - program
I'm done now
As I tumble out
Grabbing the breath of life
Blowing a trumpet
To my Life's Savior
Kissing the ground
Through the flooded floor
Thank You Lord!

I am the King
You’re the fat balloon
That I married like the moon
Full of disease
You even eat the honey bees
With your fat cheese
You’re a treat for the fleas
And the darling bed buds
Of May
I am the King
And you’re the rough thing
With the ring through your nose
And it still really snows
In our Siberia town
But you manage
To drink it all away
Taking away
All the children’s fun
I am the King
You’re my golden ring
We’re at a do
But it quickly
Turns into a zoo
As you eat all the food
And the furniture too
I am the King
You're the Hippopotamus
We’re at a dance
In Bangladesh
You manage
To breeze away
All their clothes
Leaving them all
Very exposed oh!
I am the King
Very embarrassed indeed
And needs a quick divorce
To be free like a horse
Put down the knife dear
It was only a joke
Oh what a rich life
You sunk our boat
Unfortunately
You couldn’t swim
RIP dear golden ring!

I’m falling flat on my face
As a poet in a boat
In a race
My time is running out
My writings are falling apart
The heart of my work
So raw so hurt
I feel as if
I fell down a water well
And can’t get out
Of this bad smell
This invisible wall
Comes to mind
I smash it
With my spiritual hammer
I smash my way out
Into the fresh freedom
Of an Indian summer
Into the arms
Of my Beloved Lord
Where I will be safe
Forever more

Mrs Cantankerous
Always in a temper
Smoking and choking
Raising four children
On her own
Beating, mistreating,
Starving them
Mrs Cantankerous
Was wild as a dog
Without a bone
She never had a phone
No friends
All alone
With her kids
Driving her insane
And the boy was always to blame
She was crazy
Sad and fat lazy
A hag with no glad tidings
How sad
Men were scared of her
Neighbours would run from her
She was crabby and shabby
Violence was all she knew
She called her self a Catholic
But really she was bad traffic
All the kids grew up
And left home as soon
As possible
Couldn’t wait
To get away
From the crazy
Cantankerous woman
She lived til seventy five
How did she ever survive?
Only God knows!
She ain’t gone too soon enough
Fortunately
The world is now a safer place
And the grandchildren
Can live happily ever after
Knowing that
The wicked witch is dead!
Ding dong!

It’s so true
When you’re young
The world
Really is
Your oyster card
Of fun
You can drink it away
You can smash the day
Or treat it like treasure
But if you give it away
It can kill you
Even enthrall you
Entice you
To a darker pleasure
To a wicked treasure
Drive old folks crazy
Makes you lazy
Being young
And beautiful
That’s the power
Of your oyster card
Fun
As you get older
Like a wounded soldier
You’re all prickly
And life is pretty
And there’s no
Oyster card fun
Only a free bus pass
To crumble
Heart on sleeve
Life is sharp
Your music
Is now a harp
And now
All you do
Is to live
To die
Cry away
The years
Fighting death
And fears

Your flat face
Like a sunflower
A flower of the sun
You run like a rabbit
Carrying your carrot
Carrot of the rabbit
Meeting the rabbi
A short fat guy
Words of wisdom
Covered in Hebrew
The sunflower blues
Got good-news:
'It's a boy!!!!!!!!
HalleluYah!!!!!!!

I am sick of lying in my bed of pain
Surround by the horrors of hell
War knocking at my door
Shortage of food and water
No loo paper
Pestilences floods the streets
People dying in mud and sewer
Mad dogs on the loose
No one's safe anymore
Everyone's a target for food
Streets of red
Bodies of the dead
Pile up in Main Avenue
There's nowhere to go
Everything destroyed by the blast
Everything running out fast
Smile down on us O God
I know you're there
Rescue us Lord God
It's only You we trust
Let this judgment be gone
Let it pass quickly
Come soon Lord!
Capture us!
Rapture us!
The ones that love You!
Come soon!

You fill my head with nonsense
And now it’s got to all be undone
Erased your sharp blades
Erased your wicked dreams
You make me want to scream
You fill me with lies
Ice-cream and apple pie
You think you’re a smart guy
Getting away with murder
But soon everything catches up with you
Like a spoon to an elephant
Your buffoon show is over
The authorities caught ya
And now ya just doing time
For your murderous crime
My mind deprogrammed
Your words aborted
And now your time has come
Your penalty death!
And you shall be remembered
No more
And you shall be gone
For ever more
Into dust
My misplaced trust

It’s not for me to judge
It’s only for me to love
Who made me judge & Jury?
I will not cast the first stone
Dry bones come alive and live
It’s for me to forgive my enemies
I let them off the hook
Who made me judge & jury?
Not me, I’m no crook
It’s not for me to judge
It’s only for me to love
He whom is without sin
I want you to know
You can’t win
He whom is without sin
I dare you to cast the first stone
Wake up you dry bones
Come on home
Your sins are forgiven
You’re free to go
You’re off the hook
Sin no more my dear!
It’s not for me to judge
It’s only for me to love
If you hear me knocking at the door
Please answer don’t be afraid
If you see me down the street
Please don’t walk away
Be a good Samaritan guy
Take care of me
I’m not to judge but only to love
Judge not and you won’t be judged
Give and it will be given to you
What you sow is what you reap
Keep out of the kitchen
If you can’t stand the heat
A message so hot to eat
It’s not for me to judge
It’s only for me to love
