Rich opulent courses
gorged, gluttony embracing
Heartburn from hades
Crass childish sweary nonsense that barely rhymes properly
A POTUS loved by evangelic
praise Jesus hes orange, mesmeric
But to me hes a dick
a piss drenched racist prick
no better than an ISIS cleric
Now he reckons it’s Christmas he’s saved
so you better hope you have behaved
In the name of J Christ
he’s now after your wife
He requests her pussy waxed or shaved
Okay so theyre a bit clumsy but I kinda like them anyway 🙂
For the first time in nearly 6 months I have just spent more than a day away from my blog.
For the first time in nearly 6 months I have just spent more than a day away from my blog. In the past Ive had the odd spell away, but nothing like this. For 4 days in fact I have not made a post, read a comment or read anything anyone else has posted.
It was at first rather frustrating but there were these Ikea cupboards that needed to go up you see plus others that needed moving from one side of the bedroom to the other. Now, in order to achieve that they needed to be dismantled which I kind of managed but then the dismantling was followed by shouting, swearing, sweating and me then apologising to the family for being a complete dick and a quite awful human being.
The second night I repeated my performance, to somewhat of a lesser degree, but again I was a twat and I will admit that I am this point thinking that I have issues. No matter how hard I tried the combination of my complete ineptness and the quite obvious evil nature of these wardrobes brought out my inner twat.
Another night of it and by the time I had done them all I simply had no joy left in me and found it rather hard to return and it has taken a couple of days of cocktails, Christmas merriment and festive television to get me back to some sort of place where I have both the time and the inclination to write again.
I have some catching up to do I think but just glad my wife didn’t make me sleep in the garden this Christmas really. She’s a frightfully patient woman.
Merry Christmas

Stars snuffed out as space he crossed
consuming all before
until a planet full of life
green hill ran to blue shore
A Timeless creature dark of heart
in search he roams the night
presented with this gift of life
and joy and streaming light
Each heart a feast each soul divine
each mind a thing to savour
he gorges, belly fat and round
lips smack tongue tastes sweet flavour
And over time into their world
they welcome him arms wide
and worship at his festival
tell tales by fire side
His garments red his beard like snow
red eyes, teeth sharp, blood claws
he stalks in search of prey at nights
until the winter thaws
And then he slumbers until once
again the frost awakes
and hunger drives him ever on
and heart and soul he takes

Christmas cracker

Horse rubbed himself against the stable wall, “Oh that feels so good” he said scratching an itch that had been troubling him for some time. “That was some crazy goings on last night” he said to anyone that was willing to listen.
Cow looked up from her breakfast “Not a fan of babies myself” she answered “especially not squidgy pink human ones.”
Chicken clucked in agreement as Pig snorted.
“I’m just glad they’ve gone. As if the way they treat us isn’t bad enough now they’re stealing our sleeping space” Pig said sharply.
“Apparently he was the son of God you know” Horse continued.
“Who?” said Cow chewing slowly.
“That baby, the Jesus one.”
Chicken clucked and flapped her wings and was about to speak when Pig interrupted.
“What are you on about?”
“Seriously” Horse said nodding, “I heard them say so.”
“Fuck off” said pig “why would God have his kid born in a stable” she asked grumpily.
“Pig, language” Cow snapped.
Pig wandered over to the trough and began to eat. “Seems a bit ridiculous to me that’s all” she said, food spilling from her mouth.
Chicken flapped her wings and opened her beak to speak but was again interrupted.
“It’s true” Horse said, “Apparently God sent those fellows with the camels and those shepherds “
“Why on earth would he do that?” Pig asked.
Cow looked at Horse. Horse said nothing.
Chicken saw her opportunity and hopped up onto Cows back. “I was speaking to Dog from two streets down” she clucked, “and you know what he told me?” she asked.
“Go on” Pig said finishing the last of the food in the trough.
“Well” Chicken continued, “Dog told me that there was a baby born over at their Inn last night too and there were apparently heavenly apparitions, a voice from the sky and a beam of light that shone on the baby when it came out!”
She paused for dramatic effect as the animals looked at one another.
“What did they call it?” Cow asked curiously.
“Darren” Chicken answered.

Sleigh bells ring and blood runs cold
The Fear runs through your veins
Night time falls and tales of old
They tell of just one name
His clothes blood stained, a heart of black
A list of wicked names
His jingle bells, on darkness dwell
Brings death and dark and pain
And should he find you unprepared
Through window, chimney, door
He sneaks inside your soul to take
Your days to end. No more.
Into the night he whisks away
bad children, down to hell
Not fire, but ice and there to stay
And in his kingdom dwell

Temperatures plummet
children playing in the snow
homeless freeze to death
I seem to have a recurring theme starting here. I think I might have Santa issues…

As darkness falls and blankets pulled
up tight around your ears
across the town the crunch of boots
on snow and darkest fears
Door handles rattled, windows checked
Through letter box he peeps
Wild eyes, sharp teeth and fingers gnarled
As you pretend to sleep
He knows, he sees, he understands
Just how you have behaved
He watches day and night and follows
From the cradle to the grave
And should he know, perhaps suspect
You’ve not done as you should
Onto your roof he clambers
All because you’ve not been good
And down your chimney he will slip
When fast asleep you dream
And whisk you off to darkest lair
Where no one hears you scream

The gifts delivered to the homes
The reindeers put away
And Santa stumbles off to bed
But Mrs wants to play
“Now you look here” his wife insists
“I know you’ve been at work
But a woman has her needs you know”
And slowly starts to twerk
He cocks his head and strokes his chin
her bottom starts to shake
“Oh love I’m feeling tired”
No excuses will she take
She bumps and grinds her lips red bright
She wiggles and gyrates
Stockings, basque and ‘Screw me shoes’
Much longer she cant wait
His suit undone his belly proud
She nibbles, sucks and bites
Hes suddenly less tired
And his trousers feel quite tight
“Oh go on then” he smiles and slaps
Her playful on the arse
“One more bulging sack to empty
Then its off to bed at last”

Dear diary you see
you may just not believe
what has happened tonight when at work
couple knocked at the door
he performed, stomped and swore
demanded a room, what a jerk
But I felt really bad
for the sorry faced lad
cos his lass says that god did …you know
now shes bearing his kid
not from nothing he did
but hes sticking with her, brave lad so…
The night’s silent and cold
Seems a saviours foretold
Theres the lass on a donkey call M
Now shes proper knocked up
and at back of the pub
giving birth near a cow a hen
There’s some fellas with sheep
and some lads from the east
who look lost but they seem to have gifts
it has been a long night
and this stars rather bright
god I really do hate working shifts

and perhaps a splash of that
Tight belt unbuckled
You better watch out…

As night falls, all through the town
When the children start to slumber
There comes a man his hood pulled down
His heart all black and thunder
it rages, coursing through his veins
and soul as dark as pitch
he searches for the homes and seeks
the curtains as they twitch
inside he creeps they scurry fast
he knows they’re wide awake
to take their souls, exchanged for gifts
be good for goodness sake

fights after two days
My favourite Christmas carol has always been ‘Little Donkey’

I shared today’s post with my youngest Thomas and he came up with this. Tom is 9 and seems to rather enjoy trying his hand at poetry. Good work boy!
Donkey travelled through the night
On his back he carried heavenly light
The little heroes name was Kevin
And he carried the boy from heaven
Below is my effort. I think Tom did a better job. I’m going for a free form morbid nihilist first donkey perspective kind of vibe. I think I smashed it.
What? It’s a thing…Donkey’s can write poetry you know, they just don’t write it down because of the hooves.
Long dark roads
Dust and despair fill my every waking hour
Family and friends long forgotten
We eat through the miles
We pass through the night
They rest on my back as we follow the star
No food no water no hope
Onwards they drive me
Through the night towards day break
Silver and gold spill across the land
Day brings scorching heat
I wish I was dead
Ive never written free form before. I think it shows.
