I fantasise
Over fantasies
That will never be.
A girl’s eyes
May tease.
Or, just possibly, she
Desires to please,
But I,
Can not see.

Way Over Yonder in the Minor Key by Billy Bragg and Wilko
This song manages to be beautiful and humorous at the same time.
When I Said To Moriah
When I said to Moriah,
“Have you seen the squire?”,
And she said, “yes, in a haystack,
As I lay flat on my back”,
I said, “that’s enough of that, Moriah!”.
When A Young Man Named Moore
When a young man named Moore
Said, “the poor will always be poor”.
His accountant, who was called Lou,
Said, “I must agree with you,
So lets raise their rents some more!”.
When A Young Lady Named Alice
When a young lady named Alice
Said, “you are so very callous!”.
I replied with great disdain,
“You never cease to complain.
Its nice sleeping outside, young Alice!”.
When A Young Man Who Liked Nostalgia
When a young man who liked nostalgia
Developed a very bad case of neuralgia,
He consulted a sage
From a previous age,
Who cured him of all his nostalgia!
When A Young Lady Named Kristy
When a young lady named Kristy
Said, “today it is very misty.
Its very difficult to see
Anything in front of me”.
I said, “you’re in the shower, Kristy!”.
A Young Lady Named Heart
A young lady named Heart
Said, “I’ll show you my art”.
So we entered her bedroom,
Scented with the sweetest of perfume,,
And there I saw her art!
Cultural Debris
A defense of high culture and ordered liberty by Russell Kirk, https://kirkcenter.org/kirk-essays/kirk-essay-cultural-debris/.
Kirk was a defender of traditional Conservatism and an American. I very much doubt however that he has been read by Donald Trump or (if he has) that the President would understand Kirk.
Bowed
A tree branch, bowed
Half blocked the track.
I did not turn back
But ducked under.
There it stands,
Guarding the path.
Bowed by the recent wind.
Nature will have the last laugh,
Whether this tree
Outlasts me,
Or no.
K Morris - Poet
