We are King Herod

We are King Herod And you are infant Jesus We are flying our flags And you will bow

Your inexpressible joy

Will become inexpressible

Your life will become so intolerable

You will gladly flee to Egypt

Good riddance to you

We don’t want your sort round here!

Senior Moments

 

Oh dear

My brain slowed down to zero

Can’t concentrate

Turned to mush

Just sit and stare for a bit

It will come to me

A middle aged moment

The words stuck somewhere

Between mind and mouth

Eyes roll 

Bring my medicine

It’s all good

Maze

 

Which Way to go?

The one who isn't a dead end

 

Which Truth to follow?

The one who sets you free

 

Which Life to lead?

The one who sees it all

Kill Ratty

 

The poor little chappy

Just looking for food

But he’ll bring his brood

And if you don’t kill him

Your state will be worse than at first

So trap the blighter

Live in the light

Big Cheese

Snap shut

Wrongthink

 

Those with conscious biases

Lobotomise the masses

Check your thinking

Smile of a Child

If only you knew
When you smiled as a child
What was to come

What would you do?
Take the rough with the smooth?
A bit young for suicide

Take heed, mothers
Take heed, fathers
Teach your child and cover them with kindness

Do all you can do
Give them the best chance you can
If they come to hate you, it won’t be your fault
