Something’s coming up
I got this funny feeling
My senses are alert
My head is reeling
Penis erectus
I touched the ceiling

Fools – 3rd June 1986
Running around in circles
Caught inside the maze
No entry, no exit
Do as the sign says
Open to criticism
Being used as tools
Carry on the carry on
Fools led by fools
The Hanging Tree – 2nd June 1986
Cherry blossom on the hanging tree
My body hangs independently
My eyes wide, my neck snapped
At least the audience clapped
As I hung
As I swung
At the party
Round the hanging tree
Ear Infection – 1st June 1986
Ears full of wax
The most incredible pain
Feels like something
Trying to leave your brain
Earache keeps you awake
Earache was your mistake
You didn’t clean them out
Do I have to shout?
Two For Tea – 31st May 1986
Lay the table
Pour some wine
Eat some food
Pass the time
In the garden
Table and chairs
Smell the scent
Of country airs
A pigeon shat in my drink
Tea inside tomorrow, I think
War With Toys – 25th May 1986
March toward your enemy
Fight with heroes’ guns
Backup will support you
They’ll drop the bombs
The children giggled around the board
Because they were assured
Of victory
War with toys
War with boys
Love In Ruin – 18th May 1986
You put me on the rack
Then you started screwing
I gave you my heart
You left it in ruin
You tied me down
It was my undoing
In your chamber of delights
My love in ruin
I should’ve realised
When your love just flew in
I should’ve flown away
Before my love in ruin
Call Of The Wild – 16th May 1986
The wild is calling
Fallout is falling
The wild is beckoning
On the day of reckoning
Enola’s looking grey tonight
But little boy came through the fight
Big man wiped away the tears
That were shed for the last six years
Every man, woman and child
Succumb to the call of the wild
Exhausted – 15th May 1986
Totally wrecked
I’m sure it’s the end
Working so hard
It’ll drive me round the bend
Flipped my lid
Tired and depressed
I’m so exhausted
I think I’ll have a rest
Bob The Goat – 11th May 1986
Bestiality is the best
Animal love, fur caressed
But my love was a coat
Poor old Bob the goat
29th Sept 1986 – My coworker Stuart was maybe 5 to 10 years older than me at the time and was always very vague about his relationships eventually resorting to the line that he had a goat called Bob as his girlfriend and hence this poem. Semi-ironically he got married a couple of years later, presumably to a woman. He used to go swimming a lot to keep fit but got out of the pool one day to find his bag had been taken from the changing rooms and everything stolen from it, including his wedding photos that he had gotten printed that day and all his clothes! He had to wait for the police to arrive in just his swimming trunks.
