Jim's Odyssey- Wingnut Art'

There will be plaid, there will be tweed!..(eventually)
From
'The Pub Philosophers' series
Oil on canvas
100cm x 70cm
In progress...

And they slowly
Slopped away from
The amorphous mess
All mucous membrane
And slippery sadness
To a place they would
Get no respite
A landscape furrowed
No day or night..

Not even an option
Of an early grave,
Scrabbling and tearing
At an insurmountable
But preposterous wave
One fell to his knees
As a heinous beg
And like Tarturus
He screeched 'this is me!
Hiding in a place
Where all can see.

Stretching all sinew
To a taut drum skin
They move and gather,
Push and glide,
Stench and slide
Through rock to hedge
Stump moss shin
To see you now in sightless scent
Bathe their scalps on sunlight,
Then Seeping into earth's wet vent.

Hearing the songs of bones
It shook away from the Stock
Not knowing what cocooned inside,
Nor pride,
A longing to unlock

Fingernails shuddered
And eeked out
The hard ground
To silence a voice
Without any sound
Climb up until it
Comes to its end
No peace or consequence
A hell to spend.

Will personally deliver if in West Dunbartonshire area!!!!

The Birds...

From "After the Queue"
Mixed media drawings

And they slowly
Slopped away from
The amorphous mess
All mucous membrane
And slippery sadness
To a place they would
Get no respite
A landscape furrowed
No day or night..

Not even an option
Of an early grave,
Scrabbling and tearing
At an insurmountable
But preposterous wave
One fell to his knees
As a heinous beg
And like Tarturus
He screeched 'this is me!

To see you now in sightless scent
Bathe their scalps on sunlight,
Then Seeping into earth's wet vent.

It shook away from the Stock
Not knowing what cocooned inside,
Nor pride,
A longing to unlock..

I will wish Happiness as a seamless shine
Happiness as a sprawling wave
Happiness as a boundless plain
A Happiness
For every time

The end off nothing
The start of none

I will not respect a happy new year
When we look upon their
Expectant faces
A frown transpires
As he goes sifting
And shifting
Through the remnants of the fire
Nothing
Looks skywards
Gone
Holds out hands
Swept along.

I will not sound
Happy New year
One day into the next
Is all
A collection of days
Bundled then torn.
Only seasons pass
In their shifting sway

I will not sound happy new year
Dragged backwards
Through a hedge of lies
By a remorseless power blinded
Pride, circling hyenas singing
Relentless is the Ogres quest

I will not sound a happy new year
But smile as the great wings spread
And shield against the sun
So we can look upon their
Beautiful faces
When time allows flying glimpses
And uttered words
Of peace

I will not sound a happy new year
For those who tear and stretch
Then throw away
What can't expand their
Bursting banks

I will not sound a happy new year
Or free a gust of
Angered breath
Throw nets around the dancing
Swarms
The warm breeze of whispered
Dreams
That all can gather, hold and
Grow
We are the ones who know.

I will sound
A happy
New
They cannot stand between
Me and you.

And Happiness as a seamless shine
Happiness as a sprawling wave
Happiness as a boundless plain
Happiness
For all to
Rest

Shuddering sway to
Waking in a blue shine
Sweat
The wind sheathed and spat
Wet droplets
To rest
Dragged his wings over
Gator tracks
To the beginning of
Unwanted Quest...
