Trevor took an extra curricular
class in combat and
cried out cruelly at the
creosoted fence cloyingly cosying
up to the cobblestoned castle walls.

On the 12th day of April
My true love sent to me,
The electric bill.

When I was a kid,
I stared in the mouth of
greatest road in the world.
They called it The Information Super Highway
and they proclaimed its wonders
with the reverance reserved
for a king.
Changing commerce,
where commerce can be seen to change,
and uniting fellows
from global factions
into
our blessed utopia.
Twenty years, a decade
or two,
have passed us by like truckers
avoiding night owl hitchikers.
Only now the highway is a road
made of pornography,
the vehicles naked ladies
and the hitchhikers
couples fucking and
agreeing a lot with God.
Tim Berner's Lee clutches
in agony, his head
and his head,
fraught at what it has become.

If I could whine and dine
with any star,
alive or passed,
It'd be one of the really big ones.
Like Aldebaron or Betelguese.
Yes, stars from space.
Did you think celebrities?!

I'm not a betting man,
so it should come as no surprise,
to you or to me,
that I put nothing
on the Grand National racing of horses.

Last year I stopped a bit short.
Though actually,
2014 shines in my face and I recall,
this year is 2016!! You dingus.
Holy shit 1996 was 20 years ago!
If you're an 80's kid, you'll
remember this and this!
I often wish I'd been alive
in the ninteen sevens,
because then my shitty dancing
would be appropriate for disco.
Disco is my favourite musics
and if you don't want to boogaloo
then please don't speak to me.

Trevor sat upon a rock,
reading a tome about gerbils.
He had believed his abode,
so bathed in sun, was
an infestation waiting to pop.
Turns out Trevor was wrong,
and there were nothing
but loose pairs of mittens.
And one large rat.
Trevor cursed.
Rat burst.
Fred Durst.

HELP HELP
I JUST PLUGGED MY HEAD
INTO MY COMPUTER
I CAN SEE EVERYTHING
WHAT THE SHIT
THIS IS REALLY HURTING MY BRAIN
IT FEELS LIKE A MILLION ANTS ARE
TEABAGGING MY EYES
I DON'T EVEN
I CAN'T EVEN
THE ENTIRE SPHERE OF KNOWLEDGE
IS IN MY FACE

Watching cartoons was always neat,
but if some dude
told me to rate theme tunes,
then it would go
Duck Tales
Dakwing Duck
Chip and Dale
Talespin
within the highest quints.
Life is like a mystery in Duckburg,
like how Ducks can swim through gold?
And why is he eating
those dubloons?
Getting dangerous can only lead
to heartache, Darking Duck.
Please take care and look after
your orphan friend.
Some times some crimes do slip through the cracks
because Chip and Dale are rather small.
They don't have the presence
of regular policemen.
Ooooo eee ahhh.
Oooo eee ohh.
Talespin.

A morning off for me today,
A mourning off
for busy feelings.
A happy cup of tea on my desk,
Yikes its hot!
Don't drink that so soon,
you'll burn your throat.
A lazy day of looking at books,
but not reading them
because I couldn't get away with that.
It's not my job to read books.
Just to put them on shelves.
Why does no one borrow the good stuff?
Please take my books!
Please bring them back!
Where's my flippin security?!

Why are people so freaked by needles?
I mean, yeah so am I,
but the look of horror at
the silver line inches above the skin.
Eeesh. I just creeped myself out,
imagining the skin crumple
before popping and allowing metal
to pierce into veins.
Goddamn stop!
stop talking about needles in this way!
Stop picturing the puncture wound
and the beads of blood!
BLEEEEHHHGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
(P.S. 19 is my most favourite ever.)
