As the Season of Halloween Rapidly Approaches
As the season of Halloween rapidly approaches
I meet many young women wearing cockroaches.
When I ask, “are you a witch?”,

Progress
Leaves turn brown
‘Ere they fall
To waiting ground.
I heard
A bird’s
Alarm call.
Autumn will become
Winter. The sun
Will burn out.
Some still shout
Of human progress
While leaves fall.
Miss Glover
I met a young lady named Glover
Who asked could she be my lover.
She said, just for me
She’d throw in Miss Leigh,
Which delighted that young lady’s dear mother!
Ale
When a young lady whose name is Gale
Said, “you and your friend look so pale!”,
I said, “me and White
Went out drinking all night,
And there was something wrong with the ale!”.

Does fight
With the light
In my heart.
For art
Comes from dark
And light.

Magic
Cuts bite.
A degree
Isn’t free.
At night
Students learn
To turn
Their looks
Into books

In the Biblical Sense
I have known
In the biblical sense
Many young women.
I make no pretence
That their names
Where all known.
