They're Taking the Hobbits to Asgard!

Fighting for supremacy,

o’er golden hair and bended knee.

Looking out across the stars,

who’ll gain control of Earth and Mars?

that tricky trickster doth defile

fair maiden queen that made wheat fertile.

Fleeing from thund’rous rage

to sultry servants of the age

to beg fine gifts worthy of her suitor.

Yet whilst to Asgard he’s en route to her

a small mutt’ring doth him distract.

Entering in an unholy pact

he bets the sum of his head whole

to wise old smithies far from droll.

But that cunning fly loves deceit

and his maker does not wish to meet

So with a prick upon that brow

he suavely breaks his vow.

Returning to fair maiden’s home,

with his gifts he must atone.

Yet the tricky trickster next does flee

and now golden maiden can contented be.

All The World's A Stage...

... So why not exploit it? Shamelessly selling myself here, but who cares?

Buy my book on Amazon please! It's really cheap, easy to read and - in my opinion- really good!

It's called "Musings of a Journey - Part i" and it's something I've been working on for a fair while.

It's available on UK Amazon here and for my American readers here


If you'd like a preview just look here.

If anyone is unable to guess the title, you are blooming soppy!

There's A Side To You That I Never Knew...

Eye see corruption in thine I
you have strayed far from the path
which i set out yet i do not protest
too much for that your right
high up in your elephantine tower
is it not a long way down
Oh? doth thou protest too much?
Shakespeare says he thinks it
I do not condemn for I have passed
it is my time no longer
One day I shall sail west
join my children in the Grey

Anyone who can guess not only the title, but all the references within the above will receive a worse better prize than has ever been won from this site!

Goodbye To You

Soon I shall return to my holy home
high up in the clouds
Enough of this, my heavenly rote
the journeys took’st far too oft
the pleasures and the pains I to you bequeath.
resignation tendered, may I retain my throne?
constitutionally mind, just to watch and show
my love,
Perhaps to open parks
