Dear Dom, Yes, it is me again! Me, Jay Cool! And yes, I know that you gave me the sack before I even got the job, or for that matter, before I even received a response! And, yes, I know that you haven’t had time to read my application letter yet, hence the prematurely-premature sacking.Continue reading “Savvy Letter – Dear Dom (Again)”

Savvy Poem – A Storming Morning
Inspired by the phrase ‘storming morning’ coined by Fantasynovel1@wordpress.com, in the poem ‘Shattering’. Storming into a morning that I know is not really there, I find myself nagged into wakefulness by the lure of a coffee, that I hope is not really there, by my side, waiting for me. Sure, I know, I’ll stir longContinue reading “Savvy Poem – A Storming Morning”
Savvy Poem – Content
Content is irrelevant. What’s relevant is lost in the flow of the post after post after post of meaningless messages churning round and round my receptors. Soggy messages: mushed up, dried out, crumbled and scattered. Bits swept up, sacked up and dumped – tipped into irrelevance, and skipped up into contentment.

Savvy Poem – Cracked Wallpaper
With the lid on me twisted and tightened – to prevent leakages – the words on the wallpaper of my interior, crack.

Silly-Savvy Poem – Night Thermos
Never been much of a night owl until this night. On this night, tonight, I can’t sleep. On this night, it’s so warm, I can smell the burning of the January heat. On this night, I give up on the sleep and get up to follow heat to the kitchen. I smell the burning of crusts,Continue reading “Silly-Savvy Poem – Night Thermos”
Silly Politics – Boris’ Eggy Feet
Do I really want to go forward with 2020, when I’ve just had the most bizarre carrot on a stick dangled in front of my senses? Who, in the UK, or for that matter, the rest of the world, be it of American or European ilk, would want to egg old Boris on, as heContinue reading “Silly Politics – Boris’ Eggy Feet”
Silly Poem – The Sameness of Buns
In protest against the standards of sameness in bun-size, required by Pru & Co. in today’s episode of Junior British Bake-Off. All similar and consistent in size, great texture and beautifully shaped, well-coloured and spiced, looks lovely and tastes delicious, but missing a bit of the … indefinable three-dimensional character that comes with beingContinue reading “Silly Poem – The Sameness of Buns”
A Silly Poem – No Views
No views. Is business a card, distributed to many, if the many see no purpose in following it through? Have I been reduced to a card of many that produces nothing? Am I a reduction? Will someone find me, someday, in the pocket of a charity shop jacket, and will they pick me up andContinue reading “A Silly Poem – No Views”
Silly Poem – Winter’s Approach
October cold nips at thighs and calves. I wrap them, tuck them in, try to be at one with the shape of my chair. It’s a swivel chair. Once shaped, will I be able to twist, turn and spin into takeoff? And, once airborne, will I be able to land? Or, will that be meContinue reading “Silly Poem – Winter’s Approach”
Savvy Diary – The Torture
Just read a poem that arrived in my inbox, by Brandon Som. I struggled to follow many of the lines, as some were in languages other than English and, much to my shame, I am not even bilingual, let alone multilingual! Nonetheless, the following two lines stuck! Perhaps in the same way that a saw,Continue reading “Savvy Diary – The Torture”
