I’m going downhill fast  (3)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I’m going downhill fast
My stomach it is grumbling
I’m going downhill fast
No food all day is frightening
I’m going downhill fast
My insulin levels are rising
I’m going downhill fast
I reckon my poor kidneys failing
I’m going downhill fast

I’m going downhill fast
Wish I could find a cafe
I’m going downhill fast
My tank is low on diesel
I’m going downhill fast
Oh Christ is that a cop car?
I’m going downhill fast
Just don’t think I am speeding.
I’m going downhill fast

I’m going downhill fast
Went wide on that last bend.
I’m going downhill fast
Only nearly off my head and
I’m going downhill fast
Oh and *uck knows where I’m heading
I’m going downhill fast
Sorry . Should not give way to swearing
I’m going downhill fast

I’m going downhill fast
Nothing but a hot dog stand now
I’m going downhill fast
Do I dare to stop now with a cop upon my tail?
I’m going downhill fast
I  will stop an see I must chance my arm
I’m going downhill fast
Doubt he will see my busted tail light.
I’m going downhill fast

What are dreams made of ?

What are dreams made of ?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What are dreams made of ?
I once heard a great poet question
And if asked then I ‘d like to say
“Sugar and spice and all things nice”
But oh no they ain’t. No way they ain’t
They are made up from episodes of lives
Of passed lives that I have experienced
In vivid wide screen projected block busters

Without reason or rhyme or any co-ordination
Or any obvious chronological order as I see it
No wonder I wake up in my loneliness so tired
I think by now I have certainly lived to long
And yet I know I have a duty to stay alive .
But I feel I have to say. I’m going downhill fast.

Mummy, Mummy, Mummy !!

2007

Mummy mummy mummy. !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mummy Mummy MUMMY.!!
Look what I have done.
Rhyming moon with June.
Gived me sooo much fun.
I done it on myself.
So does it make me one?
Yes my dear sweet poet
From all that mummy taught you.
Hurry grow up fast
And make yourself a blooming
FORTUNE.

A stark lesson.

2006
A stark lesson.
(Beware not to give it all away. )
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A stark lesson I now relate.
If you put all into life and fail to withdraw
Your happy philanthropic nature giving more.
Men will arrive and take n never show remorse
Your coffers soon exhausted standing empty
Stripped by those you helped when you had
PLENTY.

I’m going downhill fast
My goodness I feel hungry
I’m going downhill fast
No meals today n it’s 8:30.
I’m going downhill fast
I guess the next town has a curry
I’m going downhill fast
I could eat a horse n chase the rider
I’m going downhill fast

I’m going downhill fast
Wish it ‘ud just stop raining
I’m going downhill fast
My roof has started leaking
I’m going downhill fast
Oh  a road house neon flashing
I’m going downhill fast
Just made it in n I’m soaking.
I’m going downhill fast

I’m going downhill fast
Went inside to face a dragon
I’m going downhill fast
Ordered coffee and a burger
I’m going downhill fast
Oh and waffles n maple syrup
I’m going downhill fast
Sorry dragon quips kitchen closed at seven.
I’m going downhill fast

I’m going downhill fast
Nothing to eat here I don’t think it funny
I’m going downhill fast
Does it help I’ll give you money
I’m going downhill fast
I told you fella we close at seven
I’m going downhill fast
Drew my gun and shot the ceiling.
I’m going downhill fast

A simple way to tell a story with aliteration of sorts where you can develop a fantasy in as many chapters as you like . It works well with nine lines and five stanzas

I’m going down hill fast.
I ought to get my act together
I’m going down hill fast.
Kissed my wife n said I love her
I’m going downhill fast.
Told her that there was no other.
I’m going downhill fast.
She says that I’m a liar.
I’m going down hill fast.

I’m going downhill fast.
Should have saved a fortune.
I’m going downhill fast.
Oh god it’s started raining
I’m going down hill fast.
My wind shield wipers failing
I’m going downhill fast.
My gearbox says it’s grinding
I’m going downhill fast.

I’m going downhill fast.
My boss has lost his faith in me
I’m going down hill fast.
I can’t give up the smokes you see
I’m going down hill fast.
This road is getting slippery
I’m going down hill fast
The headlights blind my capacity
I’m going downhill fast.

I’m going downhill fast.
Sleepy from the drinks I had.
I’m going down hill fast.
I am insured. So glad I am.
I’m going downhill fast
God knows why I live at all ?
I’m going down hill fast.
Gotta pull myself together
I’m going downhill fast.

If I were heaped with constant praise.

If I were heaped with constant praise
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If I were heaped with constant praise
My head would swell my hat won’t fit.
All I ask is my poems sometimes read
By comments saying words well said.

Six mumfs ago I cuddent even spel poet
Already Now by God I think I are one
I can rhyme hard things like cat and mat
And being a sudden genius is such fun.
