Random Inspiration on Royal Street, New Orleans

The sweet gummy taste of the welch’s

Sends my taste buds swirling around

the milky way orbiting toward

some caramel chocolate fantasy

mouth watering

the jingle jangling in my mouth

with each bite

as my eyes wander to the bowl

peanut butter

M&Ms

colourful candid shells

hiding the delicious peanut butter

handfuls and handfuls

i desire

but I let them

remain

for the company

coming for dinner

with the kids

expecting sugar rushes

‘Egil took a hazel pole and went to a rock facing inland. Then he took a horse’s head, and put it at the end of a pole.

Afterwards, he made an invocation saying: “Here I set upon this scorn pole and turn its scorn on King Erik and Queen Gunnhild”

Zimri or The Duke of Buckingham as described by John Dryden in ‘Absalom and Achitophel’

Character

A man so various, that he seemed to be
Not one, but all mankind’s epitome:
Stiff in opinions, always in the wrong;
Was everything by starts, and nothing long;
But, in the course of one revolving moon,
Was chymist, fiddler, statesman and buffoon.
