SEVERAL POEMS AND QUOTES

  • I BOUGHT MY HUSBAND

    I bought my husband in a Sale
    I saw him hanging from the rail!
    He’s like monkey from the zoo.
    I patch him up with U.H.U.
    I bought my husband bright blue clothes
    So that wherever this man goes
    People see him clear and bright.
    What a lovely sight!
    I bought my husband a TV.
    He likes to watch the BBC
    He hates adverts and big Brother.
    The Weakest Link’s another.
    I bought my husband books on Art.
    This merry man is very smart.
    He painted me a bunch of flowers.
    I gaze at it for hours.
    I bought my husband food and wine.
    So that we can drink and dine.
    His conversation’s rich and rare.
    There is no better fare,

    Wittgenstein quote

    Uttering a word is like striking a note on the keyboard of the imagination.

    Wittgenstein and Sex and St Augustin#

  •  

    Not every religion has to have St. Augustine’s attitude to sex. Why even in our culture marriages are celebrated in a church, everyone present knows what is going to happen that night, but that doesn’t prevent it being a religious ceremony.

  •  The Sun

    The sun was lying on the ground
    It was golden and quite round.
    The cats were looking down to see
    What the consequence would be.
    Noone seemed to notice that
    The sun was shining on their doormat.
    Put it down and by and by
    God will post it in the sky.

    NOW AND THEN

    He’s a mystic,you know.
    Does it pay well?
    Not in monetary terms.
    I thought it might be like statistics!
    Ah aha ah a Mystic statistic
    He is always losing himself.
    Then he finds himself elsewhere.
    We could organise a hunt.
    The Mystic statistic hunt.
    Can we hire some dogs?
    No,I’ll get all the cats out.
    Brilliant,they are
    more psychic than dogs.
    I used to get a feeling of eternity with my cat.
    That was before he got run over?
    And since,he communicates to me in notes.
    Like,time to turn up the central heating.
    Where’s your sun hat?
    That’s me,you dolt.
    How disappointing.Still, let me keep me illusions.
    I’ll buy you an illusion box for Xmas.
    We could get them all out and wash them.
    How many have you got?
    They grow fewer by the minute.
    We need some more.Like the illusion we are handsome fellows.
    That women see beneath our crinkled skin ,the lover within.
    But you can’t buy illusions,
    What about delusions?
    You can get those by starving and thinking malevolently.
    What about LSD
    LSD ..are you crackers?
    Well,crack cocaine,anybody?
    Meditation takes so long.I’ve not got time for that.
    I’ll drop a brick on your toe.
    That will bring you into the timeless present.
    In fact there is no present.
    How do you make that out?
    Stare at a leaf on a tree when there’s a breeze.
    Yes,it’s moving continuously.There’s no now.
    Now is then.
    It is now!
    It’s then, now!
    Now,then…!
    But if there’s no now it can’t become then.
    So there’s no then either.
    No then
    How Zen.
    So ,no now and no then.
    Where do we go from here?
    .
    There’s probably no “here” if there’s no “now”
    So “here and now” is meaningless.
    Very satisfying.
    Reality is an illusion.
    There’s no time.
    We don’t exist then?
    We don’t exist now.
    We are illusions produced by our brains.
    How wondrous.Why am I so plump?
    You are not plump because you are not.
    I am not.
    Neither am I.
    Am I I ?
    Time,gentleman ,please.
    That’s just a delusion.
    Humour him.
    You marry him.
    I’m going home like a particle on the back of a wave.
    Like a pebble flying on a sunbeam.
    Like music flying from a flute.
    I have a wife,now and then.
    When she’s not with other men.
    Alright,Einstein,your taxi is here.
    Well we have to pretend we’re still “here”
    That there is an “Here
