The Works of P G Heron

Every so often I get an email from a man calling himself P G Heron. This mysterious character sends me poetry which is clearly the product of a dilated anterior fundus, no doubt brought on by excessive consumption of eggnog. If you wish to read on do be aware that by doing so you risk your eyes turning into soil.

The Ballad Of George Michael

Think of me
When my trousers are down

Think of me
When I'm wearing a gown

Think of me
When the probe slips inside

Think of me
As I'm trying to hide

Because all I do

Is

I think of you

When my trousers are down
When I'm wearing a gown
When the probe slips inside
When I'm trying to hide

I think of you

Inside your cage

I think of you

Possessed by rage

I think of you

Inside my arse

I think of you

Being rescued

By

The doctor's lubricated glove

But I want you to know

I do RSPCate you

I really do

But the PDSAin I feel

Compels these acts

Despite the onus on my anus

Don't forget to sell your story

Revel in this anal-glory

Front page picture

Of a hamster....

Or gerbil....

It's not that I don't remember your name (or species)

Just a lot on my mind.

Allotment.

Stop now.

Horse

Horse
Not interested
In Rembrandt's oils
Staggers past the masterpiece
Grinning at worms
And pulling its lips over its eyes.

Dark peak
Candles light up
Little regions of memory
In the distant black cavity
Of wilderness

Horse on the prow of the hill
Rembrandt under one arm
Covered in smiles and winks
Nice one Cyril.

Famous Reincarnations - II

Marvin Gaye
How sweet it is
To be reincarnated as
A grapevine
Doing a handstand to impress a wasp
Or opening a stomata on a hot day
Sidcup

Famous Reincarnations I

Witness the portly form of Benny Hill
Return he did as the humboldt squid
Glassy eye that shines from deep
Ogles posh crumpet in swimsuits

Tentacles grope up from inpenetrable depths
A screaming breast and labial shriek
And suddenly
The horde in mania released
To find that beak.

Humboldt squid pursued by throng
Throng in thong
And bronze armour
Lifeguard waving fist in water
Why I ought ta...

Cue Benny Hill theme.

I am a Crow

I am a crow
I can go anywhere
I am a crow
I can go to IKEA!
I can rummage through the displays
I can have a 50p hotdog

But I can also poke out the eye of the man on the till
And fly away
Before the police arrive.

Back at my nest
Digesting my prize
A knock on the nest door arrives
The police flood in
A blur of helmets and truncheons
And put the cuffs on my wings.
They force me to regurgitate
The eye that sat safely
Inside of me

They put me in a cold jail
I shared a cell with Bono
Who had been arrested for tax evasion.
I looked up at Bono
His unnecessary face
Holding many appetising features
And because crows don't have willpower
I pecked out his eye.

And for that
The police
They let me go.

The lesson for crows here is
Keep pecking people's eyes out
And the rewards will come.

Cerumbrella


I fingered a fat girl
In Maryland Chicken
Her fat, greasy nose
Was ripe for the pickin'
I stuck up my arm
Right into her brain
I pulled up inside
As it started to rain

I stayed there for three weeks

Bugger.

Shed Man

Shed.

The whimsical whomsical garden orifice
The place
Where I
Stick my oroface.
When I'm not welcome
In my other shed.


Tools.


Include a pile of soil-stained magazines
A picture of a dog
With Bernard Breslaw's head
Before the rise to fame
Of Photoshop instead.
And all the space and time
That cannot be measured
By men with matted minds aloof.

I will burn in my shed.
I will burn with my "lad" in my hand
And a pair of guilty shorts
Like a rope around my knees
Whilst the moon watches
Through a crack
Like the dirty little moon it is.

Filthy
Moon.

Threesome
Moon.

Just you and me son,
Moon.

And the "lad" in my hand, son.

A cosmic tryst.
Fuck me I'm pissed.
