Dead birds

Is Norwich the place birds go
to die?
blackbirds, seagulls and a
pretty yellow/green one

in all my life I must have seen a dozen
dead birds
since I've been in Norwich I seen half
of that figure

not that I'm counting them
just noticing

Living nightmare

I saw a guy
in Norwich
dressed up as a Gingerbread Man
and the guy
in Norwich
had part of his head
visible though the mouth
of the Gingerbread Man
and what made it even more freaky was
the guy
in Norwich
had a moustache

how was I meant to enjoy
my hot chocolate with all
those kids screaming?

Being without a computer
is like being
without

everything

Being in America

The guy in the hotel
agreed that it's been an historic week
"It's scary," he said, "I think I might stand in 2012".
Itself a scary thought as he could hardly stand now
struggling to balance his mighty weight on both legs.

He may not have been an Obama supporter
but he did show signs that Americans truly believe
that change is coming and that just about anyone could
live a dream.

Great

There's a bunch of jazz musicians
who practice late into the night
in the workshop next door

that's the door next to my door
the door that's also the door to
my bedroom

that's the room where I try to sleep

How a series of unrelated events lead up to one embarrassing moment

"I forgot to get toilet roll in the week."
"Well I need to get some petrol
so we can call in on the way."
"Rather than go into the main store perhaps they sell them at the garage."
"Good call."

Pulls into garage and fills tank with unleaded.
Goes into garage shop to pay and picks up
two rolls of Andrex.
Goes to counter.
Looks out onto forecourt to check which pump
I'm on.
Places the toilet rolls onto counter and says
"Number two."

Bloody smirking Tesco bloody sales staff
bloody, bloody
