NO PLANS TO BREED! – Poems by Craig Robotham
Goodbye To someone I just met Menu Short poem The next move Y2K Gossip Proposition Misunderstanding Politicians How to hint loudly Vacuums don’t exist After the asking Anthem for the corporate courtesans Truth Democracy Extinction The world will have ended Disappointment Mirror Waiting Letters or notes? My Philosophy lecturer Inspiration How to make a fool of yourself Don’t go skydiving indoors Chosen The focus of history Falling through the gaps between moments | Feelings Rhyme But first… Hope springs eternal in fools Fifteen hours Change and the unchanging commitment to love Useless advice Questions The great machine of industry Paradise In response Picnic with friends Beach Singing the lies that blind I’m not through yet Goodbye? Unititled The sailor Invitation to dinner On the occasion of more sackings A most dangerous question Unnecessary Economic Rationalism Response to Les’s poem on going on holiday Global capital The ancient Mariner’s brother Daggermen If only Not all that glitters is gold Inaccessible Just out of reach Donuts Hearts turn cold Management plots | Jealousy I Jealousy II Turning 30 Ode to Bill Man is the measure Women read minds Unshared impressions Time out Almost an author It couldn’t be true Bye Bye baby brother Missed opportunity No plans to breed The fuse is lit My heart For sale Strange use of language What’s the time (1) What’s the time (2) An observation on politics Police State (A love poem) Planning how to ask Toss the coin Sparks? All are invited Bruised Turn and trust But for grace Woke up Life for dead bones Stillborn Reborn Nothing here worth saving |
