A Modern Fairy Tale

Mirror, mirror in my hand,
who’s the fairest in the land?
You are, came the reply . . .
As always.


Look Back and Wonder

Things could be far worse,
as you lie in your bed,
if the bombs fell outside,
rather than inside your head.


Hot Pizza Cheese

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
Ouch! Ouch! Mmmm.


Navel-gazing

If you looked there for real,
and not just in your mind,
some oose and gunge,
is all that you’d find.

Welcome to my Canvas

Some of the items on this site won’t be to everyone’s liking, I get that. Basically this is my place, my wee studio to mess around in – experimenting with words and thoughts. I’ll be chuffed if you enjoy it, but if you don’t, c’est la vie. As a friend used to tell me “it would be a boring life if we all thought the same.”
