Random and surreal poetry satire and short stories.

Swings, Roundabouts and See-Saws.

I read the fantastic news in our local area magazine, the children’s play area in our local is to be restored. I thought of the swings and roundabouts, and then I thought about the see-saw, which somehow reminded of someone. So the first thing I did was write the following.

See-saw Man.

His voice is up, then it’s down, see-saw man, see-saw man
First he’s serious then a clown, see-saw man, see-saw man
Puts tariffs up, then puts them down, see-man, see- man
“Your leaders an idiot”, then he’s not, see-saw man, seesaw man
He’s going to bomb you, then he’s not, see- man, see-saw man
Nuclear button he may press, or maybe not, see-saw man, see-man
Find a shelter, if you can, see-saw man, see-man.xxxx

All words Meadowhead Bard
