After Apple-Picking

Apples I didn't pick upon some bough.
But I am done with apple-picking now.
Essence of winter sleep is on the night,
The scent of apples: I am drowsing off.
I cannot rub the strangeness from my sight
I got from looking through a pane of glass

Modernist Heraldry

Cobalt as the midnight sky
when day has gone without a trace
and we lie in each other’s arms
eyes shut and fingers open
and all the colors of the world
pass through our bodies like strings of fire

Cailleach

When howling gale is rattling doors
or call of lonely wolf is heard
or cry of raven on the wing
or crack of frost upon the ground
tis she, tis she
tis she.

Remember, remember!
The fifth of November,
The Gunpowder treason and plot;
I know of no reason
Why the Gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot!

There’s a terrible mess
On the shores of Loch Ness
Where the monster’s been chucking her bones.
There’s bonnets and sporrans
All tattered and torn
And a pile of chewed-up mobile phones

O wild West Wind thou breath of Autumn's being
Thou, from whose unseen presence the leaves dead
Are driven, like ghosts from an enchanter fleeing
Yellow and black, and pale and hectic red
Pestilence-stricken multitudes: O thou
Who chariotest to their dark wintry bed

Is this a painting or a collage?

on a stretched canvas made using canvas collage pieces

then painted

oh yes.. the rich always stack everything in their favour. So just as it goes, he's an extraordinary fact I came across "The British Royal Family owns more than 6.6 billion acres of land worldwide, one sixth of the Earth's surface." So UK economic problems, stagnation, homelessness, NHS crisis ...

An obese 78 year old billionaire, what gain can he now make when close to the end of his life. Is he really that bitter and vengeful he doesn't care about the generations behind him and the future of human life on this planet ??

The last thing we need is more division and hatred in the world, we need to pull together and help one another, we are literally on the brink of catastrophe

This is what brave, honest and good people do for others, despite the horrible smears and persecution from the petulant, bigoted and vengeful child Trump

Over the past 6 months I've been slowly working on a small series of oil paintings. This one I call The Circus as it reminds me of a Harlequin costume
