That's How Bees See

Ultra violet
livid vivid
on a purple pollen flight path
blues are pinks
and pinks are yellow
ink blot blooms
in
busy body zoomz
traffic warden clad
flywayman bad
swag bag laden
violet raiding
“Pardon me madam!”
into snap dragons
and swooping
on lupins
taking their fill
of daffodil
gold
then back to the fold
dancing with glee
for queen and country
grid refs on honeycombed hexagon hoedown
then over
and out
in a sugar slurping swarm
all humbug like
humming bugs
sweet syringe tongued
sexing the flowers
lunch is not free
whose back is scratched
how is it to be?
Meanwhile in roses
on amber hued afternoons
free bees
cut leaves
taking life
with ease
not nine to five
hive jive
without care or comb
communal home
daily drone
mobile phone
just zzzz
and fat
happy
alone.

Helên Thomas UK
Reformed poet. Woman one from wonky synth duo Tingle In The Netherlands.
You will find dark, difficult,
experimental music here and by way of a total contrast, some up tempo poetry for children and, if I can find it all, an ad hoc archive of randomness for grown ups and idiots.
Make of this what you will. Note to parents: not all of the adult poems are suitable for children. Please supervise.

Early Works 1993-1996

Lovely, evocative, twinkly melancholy. Simplistic but beautiful. It will take you away on a wistful journey. I adore this, though I am biased.

Why Can't You Write Something Nice For A Change?
by Tingle In The Netherlands
I'm totally biased here, but why create music if you don't love listening to it yourself? Wonky cheeky synthpop by me and my partner in crime. Not suitable for kids and prudes.
go to album
Dark, ambient soundscapes by my partner in crime. Drifting hypnotic aural art. Empty your head and let this flow in.
