Goldfingers aka Scumbags

Readers who regularly do read what my "Seldom Boring" friends (on the sidebar) are posting will know that not only when it comes to "Turkish affairs" Erkan's Field Diary is an excellent source.

Some months ago this very headline caught my interest:

Meet Sarraf,

the Great (Turkish) Gatsby





Reading the article added to  certain thoughts that Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Effendi would not only call a prejudice.
After all, Turkishness is unrivalled, eh?

I am a Billionaire

Sonogram IV the Third

How fascinating.
A tiny human being.
Ah, this expression!






Friday is Skyday

Oh, I am losing.
Losing myself, more and more,
more and more and more ...

Sonogram IV the Second

S/he has all s/he needs.
See? Head with eyes, nose, lips, chin,
belly and the arms . . .

[And doesn't it look as if s/he already had plenty of hair?]

Chimneys

Sonogram IV

While pic was taken
the absence of gravity
s/he was enjoying
.

Magnolia

No part of Seanhenge.
This very magnolia
belongs to neighbours.

Jams


My thoughts are with Shirley, his beloved "not-wife",
with his Mum and his Dad,
with Tim and Li,
with his muses.
but most of all 
my thoughts are with him.

Does he have enough cheese
to please Mimi,
whilst having a pint of plain
with Sergeant Pluck
and Mr. Nolan?
Will Ted be twining around his legs?

Such a fine friend.
A real character.
Thanks for all, Jams.
Sláinte!

Laughing Lhursday*



Orkney Wedding, With Sunrise


* Typo in the title?
Nah. It's just that I would not let
a tiny T spoil an avantgardistic alliteration.

Escalation

The Turn of the Screw.
Willows don't do politics.
Some know how it works.

Monochrome Monday

A reminiscence.
I can see the bard smiling.
