Kin ferry coffee down

[Under development: 1 June 2005]

Sometimes this is my favourite poem. It is bursting with energy and joie de vivre. The sounds and syllables are important, and the rhythm carries it along. It has some sense, and is also disrespectfully surreal. I should love to feel liberated to explore deeper into this terrain.

Kin ferry coffee down
Kerry dry a teacher
Mellow hurry sell in thyme
The galley boy and stew

Gin kitten celandine
Skip a merry polka
Woven with alpaca wool
And mated in Peru

Bib bitter brandy wine
Thistledown a caper
Heavy as the tiger teeth
Of bears in Kathmandu

Trip pluck a mizzen line
Slosh it over stoker
Swinging as the waves lap up
Awash in Noah's zoo
