“I now find magic in the mundane.
I’m also more creative –
better able to look beyond the obvious and
come up with new story angles.”
Deborah Norville
Tracks for Mundane Monday
Tracks left behind
Possibly, by the human kind
If the owner you try to find
Then be prepared for quite the ride!

“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet”
Napoleon Bonaparte
Concrete Bench
Even a bench
Made out of concrete
Will still help you
Get off of your feet!

Concrete Bench
Even,
A hard bench
Will do,
In a tight clench

“In 1991, few North Koreans had ever used a telephone.
You had to go to a post office to make a phone call.”
Barbara Demick
A Call Home from London
In the olden times
When we used money in dimes
Calling your mama
Caused quite the drama
When looking for a phone booth
Without loosing a tooth

Colour me red
Colour me a booth

A Call Home from London
Oh look at the wannabe telephone booths
And mini-mes in the window!
They look like things from my youth
From the times of bell bottoms and discos

A Call Home from London
“London calling to the faraway towns
Now war is declared, and battle come down
London calling to the underworld
Come out of the cupboard, you boys and girls
London calling, now don’t look to us”

“When all candles be out, all cats be grey” John Heywood
The Dame and the White Cat for Caturday
The dame with her white cat
Stepped in for a quick chat
Sat down and whisked off her hat
Ordered a coffee with milk non-fat
“Good evening dearie”
She said leering
“Nice weather we are having this evening”
That was all she said
Her conversation dropping dead
Just quietly sipping the beverage
As if looking for a leverage
I stood there staring
The silence more than unbearing
Wondering ‘what or who was this stranger
Were we all in danger?’
As if reading my mind
The lady put down the cup
And finally looked up
And with smile made of kind
She stated matter of factually
“I need more cats!”
As ipso facto, this was actually
A store, where one could purchase such things
