“Almost every Monday I have a charity thing. I like that. I do” Yogi Berra
Red Roses
Roses are red
Violets are blue
And so am I
So try not to mind
This poem has no rhyme

Peekaboo for Mundane Monday
Posted in Mundane Monday
“I have always been caught by the pull of the unremarkable, by the easily missed, infinitely nourishing beauty of the mundane.” Tana French, Broken Harbour
Peekaboo
Behind the shades
Before the sunlight fades
Peekaboo!
I see you!
Monday Again

Life tends to be an accumulation of a lot of mundane decisions, which often gets ignored” David Byrne
Monday Again
It’s Monday again
I tried to stay in bed
Sleep in
But why bother
For next week
Another Monday
Will raise its head

“I think you can find all the elements that you can find in great literature in mundane experiences” Harvey Pekar
Grey
Is it a smoke?
Is it a gun?
Is it a pipe?
It does not poke
It’s not even fun
It’s just a hype
It’s a piece of art
Almost Art for Mundane Monday
Posted in Mundane Monday
I think you can find all the elements that you can find in great literature in mundane experiences” Harvey Pekar
Almost Art
It’s off the chart
A piece of objet d’art
Looks kind of smart
Add it to your cart
If you have a heart
And a complimentary tart
Will give you a jump-start
For no one can tear it apart
Because it’s almost a work of art
Tree Line for Mundane Monday

“I think you can find all the elements that you can find in great literature in mundane experiences” Harvey Pekar
Tree Line
Painted with the finest ink
Added a little hue of pink
The colouring book of nature
Quite a spectacular feature
Across the evening sky
White for Mundane Monday I one

“I love the Mediterranean for the fact that winter is over in a minute, and the almond blossom arrives in January” Jade Jagger
White
Whiter than white
The blanket so tight
Woven onto the ground
And into our minds
Yes it’s winter
Oh joy!?
(She says sarcastically
What she means really)
Quite the splinter
And a clever ploy!
First it was nice
Now it seems
You are staying
Just of spite
Vortex for Mundane Monday

“There’s something that’s really fun about the challenge of making the mundane funny, too, I think” Jim Gaffigan
Glass
A reflecting vortex
Into a bottomless pit
Image out of context
The obvious
Becoming complex
Two, One for Mundane Monday
Posted in Mundane Monday
“I think you can find all the elements that you can find in great literature in mundane experiences” Harvey Pekar
Two, One
It started with a few
Then there were two
Only remaining
A single one
Nothing to be done
The time for Winter
Has finally come

“Monday is great if I can spend it in bed. I’m a man of simple pleasures, really” Arthur Darvill
Mundane Monday
Just another Manic Monday
Certainly not my fun day
Back in the office again
Simply cannot explain
It just happens
Always after weekend
Leaving me baffled
I cannot help myself
And leaves me overwhelmed
I just end up here
In this stratosphere
Called work
