The Dog That Coughed

Swim every sea, (cough!)
Chase every rainbow, (cough! cough! cough!)

Fireworks: The Silent Killer / October 27 2006

It’s not something I’ve eaten; it’s not fumes from a boiler, it isn’t even fear of the bile that rises every time I hear ‘can I have your autograph, please – here, sign here’. It’s not the look of emulsion, it’s not the fact that she toyed with my heart like it was a toy [...]

Last night I dreamed I was working in the garden. Well, not working as such, more like struggling. Struggling with various tenacious tree-like weeds and pernicious and painful adult thistles and native cacti. Everything had to go. But it was such a futile battle against nature.

Peoms For Punky Pets / October 12 2006

I’m writing a book of short amusing verse - or peoms (sic) as the title suggests - for children and I intend to publish several of them here from time to time. I’d be really interested if anyone fancies illustrating said efforts. Leave a comment here or mail me at peoms@napoleonfantastic.com.
