The Flamingo Love Pirouette

I love you like a marmalade moon  

spooned into my hat at half past June.  

You whisper sweet nothings to my socks,  

and teach my teacups how to waltz.


Your eyes are two licorice lagoons,  

where flamingos croon in velvet tunes.  

We dance through custard-coloured rain,  

and kiss beneath a croissant train.


Oh darling, if love be a jellyfish kite,  

then let us soar through the peppermint night.  

For nonsense is truth when hearts are askew

and I am entirely, absurdly, in love with you.

The Slow Worm & The Glow Worm

Image
The Slow Worm & The Glow Worm In a pub called The Burrow & Bug, A slow worm slid in with a shrug. He ordered some moss, Sat down like a boss, And gave his old tail a tug. A glow worm lit up near the bar, Her shimmer outshone every star. She snubbed the poor bloke, With a flicker and smoke— “Too slow,” she said, “won’t get far.” But the slow worm, determined to disprove, Started to slither and move. To the rhythm of roots, And muddy old boots, He danced to a sexy groove. His belly beat hummed like a drum, His tail tapped a beetle’s bum. The glow worm blinked twice, Then thrice (how nice!), And said, “Well, you’re not quite so dumb.” Now they’re pals in the moonlight’s gleam, A duo, a dazzling dream. One flashes with flair, One slides with care, Together they’re quite the team. They’re out on the town, seeking guys & gals, In hedgerow haunts and leafy dals. With slither and flight, And bioluminescent delight They’re the kings of the wormy canals. All this now needs is a  ...

The Chapati Collider: A Tale of Spicy Vengeance

Image
Yet another juicy anecdote from Maharaja Miku, the bard bear bass hack with perhaps a PhD in poetic non physics and a penchant for parathas, whose dreams of a starring role in CERN were dashed by hefty doses of reality, blasted bureaucracy and a suspicious allergy to neutrinos.  And thus was born his quest for revenge!! The Chapati Collider: A Tale of Spicy Vengeance  AKA, How Miku Flattened the Standard Model with a Rolling Pin Miku the Bard Bear, with a bass in his paw, Strode into CERN with a confident “Haw!” He sang of leptons in lyrical rhyme, And juggled dark matter with impeccable time. But the physicists frowned. “This bear is too bold. His bosons are half baked, his theories too old.” Rejected, dejected, he stormed from the hall Then tripped on a chapati and started to bawl. “Enough!” he declared, with a growl and a glare, “I’ll build my own lab with some flair. No sterile white walls, no Swiss protocol Just chutney, charisma, and a quantum soul!” He hammered and stir...

First Coffee of the Day Review

 🦩📜 Nonsense Chronicler’s Review of the First Cup of Coffee (as sipped by a pink flamingo in velvet slippers) 📜🦩 Date : 06 September, Year of the Slightly Confused Hedgehog   Subject : The First Cup of Coffee of the Day   Brewed by : A sentient kettle named Gerald who hums Miles Davis when nervous Reviewed by : The Nonsense Chronicler Pink Flamingo  Review: Ah, the sacred chalice of wakefulness! The flamingo approached it with the reverence of a librarian discovering jazz. One sip—and the universe hiccupped. - ☕ Aroma: Like a jazz funeral held in a cinnamon forest.   - ☕ Taste: Bold. Brazen. Slightly accusatory. Notes of walnut, regret, and a whisper of last Tuesday’s dreams.   - ☕ Texture: Velvety, with the mouthfeel of a well-read velvet curtain.   - ☕ Aftertaste: Lingering hints of existential clarity, followed by a sudden craving for interpretive dance. Side Effects Noted : - Flamingo began reciting blues poetry to a sp...
