Mark Knopfler haiku...

Mark Knopfler haiku riffs of soft gravel slink through sultry notes #haiku P.S. My alternative self feels connected to Mark Knopfler. It is said he prefers to ride a motorbike or take the train in London. Love both. We were both born in 1949...just over a month apart. We both have Scottish links.

cockatoo shenanigans...



it is rumoured
that an apple a day keeps
the doctor at bay

but what if
what if I'm a cockatoo
with selective taste

a sneaky bite here
another random bite just there
and then I move on

when will I know that
I have consumed the value
of one whole apple

does it quite matter
in my cockatoo world
of buffet delights

my playground now is
your scrumptious summer garden
I'll just test drive fruits
