Play it again, Paco





Paco de Lucia 21 December 1947 - 26 February 2014

On the Road [32]

Rain flogging windscreen,
trees spectre-like flashing by.
. . . Filipendulous . . .

Homing II

No pigeon up there,
but Pyrthe, the homing cat
with growing stomach.


Homing

Messenger pigeons
carrying no messages.
Brieftauben ohne Brief.

Typo in the title?

That Afternoon

That afternoon
I felt and was pretty sure
I was close to death,

Chimneys

All I remember
is that I felt so thankful
that I was alive.

Kafka_esque

A bug gone astray.


Watch out

To catch a heron
a lousy photographer
is suboptimaL

Fieldfares

Looking (forward to) . . .

Two Benches

... to turn one's back.

Once a Forest

Buying a forest,
letting cut all the beeches
making much money.

Friday is Skyday

Where has this pic been taken?*

* Asked are all masters of surveillance,
especially those on the paybill of NSA, GCHQ and . . . ha ha ha . . . BND.

Love is a rebellious bird


Sonogram II

Twelve millimetres,
but s/he is three days behind
says the doc.
Blimey!
S/he is already six times taller
than any average fruit fly.

Shadow on the Wall

And no one there having the cojones
to tell the emperor he is naked.
Ha ha ha. How rude I am.

Neglibility

A salad's beginning.

132

Hundred years later *
beginning my odyssee.
Seven years later ? . . .


* I am not 32, though, let alone 132.
