Random and surreal poetry satire and short stories.

  • Title, a line from Bob Dylan’s Series of Dreams. I love the idea that the only way some people can win is if their luck comes from some other world or dimension. It somehow gives weight to the theory that many world leaders and mega Rich are actually aliens, just take a look into the… Read more

  • Childy Doodlehood.

    Childhood, that age of innocence, before the world layed waste to naivety, and I was reborn into a world of apathy. Luke Warm. I’ve got a friend called Luke Warm doesn’t know how to go to townCan only do things by half, half a smile or half a frownIf I buy Luke a pint, with… Read more

  • Also of course cabbages and kings. It’s a king I talk about today, an infant king, a king of nonsense a dark king. Title of course inspired by Lewis Carrol, what a genius he was. I want to be a child If I could be a child for just one dayAll adult mindsets, ethics and… Read more

  • Do It Yourself Nonsense.

    Sometimes it seems like my life is just one big DIY project, a house that’s too big and a Keith that’s getting older. I’m not going to write about boring proper DIY today though, I’m in the mood for some nonsense. Talking of Nonsense I love spotting weird and nonsensical sights, things like ”Please refrain… Read more

  • Run!

    RUN, Run like hell, find a place to hide, and don’t come out. This life to me is like an ill fitting suit, too tight, too constraining. I’m a free spirit and should never have been put in this cage. Unfortunately there is little room for individuality now, and I never thought about it back… Read more

When the pain from your teeth is like daggers, And the pliers are calling you from your shed, There’s no dentist on this planet you can go to, Just take two aspirin and… Read more

  • Whiskey Galore

    Another boring prompt, if this is the best Ai can offer, he can take his silicon chips and fry them. I have managed to make something out of it, and had fun doing so. It’s an imaginary character by the way not me. The spelling mistakes are deliberate, stick with it it’s all part of… Read more

  • Who are my favourite people to be arround, what a ridiculous question, the answer obviously my friends and family. I definitely no not want to be around the kind of people I wrote about below.
