Have you ever picked a bogey that is long and green and slimey
And if you showed it to your sister her voice would go all whiney
If she moaned at you and said to you I'm telling Mum and Dad
Would you wipe the bogey on her and tell her that she is sad?

Nutty Dad
Would your Dad embarrass you if you went to a party
Would he try to be dead posh and act all arty farty
Would he tell these stories about when you were young
Or would he make you laugh with a trumpet for a bum?

Little boy's saliva
drowned the digit
with puckered slurps.
Sleep hovered,
then covered him.
Thumb monster emerged,
swimming on loch-lake-blanket
of a nessmare.
Craning, searching, ever nearer.
