Slightly grey Tuesday
"If you can read this, thank a teacher....and since it's in English, thank a soldier" -
Bright & sunny in Kent
Noticed that the days are getting longer....
downhill to summer
Also have daffodils appearing in the garden
How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think -

Did anyone notice Grey Slates remain - Grey Slates ?
Gather round boys and girls and listen
To the tale of the giant stone eater
and how the earth was ravaged
during the years of the great stone shortage...
Raised the price of diesel oil
and yellow painted signs zigzagged
black lines of warning......
Another tree dies of shame.....
Sudden-savage-shining-solid-soiled-solid-sanded
Steel-shuddering-shattering-shovelling until the
Sabre toothed rooter roots the earth
The eater eats his fill and is not satisfied and
Roars and reves his mathematical rage
on the footprints of Vikings
trapped on a sonic tape recorder
ten million years old, ten million years old, ten million years old
Thursdays guaranteed dry!...
Guaranteed dry while handmade golf courses
weary of trickery and fraud
Grey slates remain grey slates -
floods as required life silently reforms in the pools of stagnation.
Each layer a civilisation - buy your own layer
The eater eats again retches roars and vomits
heads computerised future is bright with security
Headshrinkers analyse the unknown....
Meanwhile another tree dies of shame
heads computerised future is bright with security -heads computerised future is bright with security-heads computerised future is bright with security-heads computerised future is bright with security ...and another Tree Dies of ShameComment
