Låt Hassan få va Tassan!

En högst företagsam kille Hassan
han rånar å slåss å tömmer kassan

men gillar visst va kriminell
så sluta med vårt gnäll! Va snäll:

Låt han fortsätta plundra folkmassan!

Tassan = hur ‘Tarzan’ låter på utpräglad Göteborgsdialekt

No need knock mediocrity

When was the most recent time
looking in a mirror
that whistles blew, bells would chime
when viewed ourself clearer?

For in its reflection
on close inspection
we shan’t see perfection
or mass affection

So what, in creation’s aviary
few get to sing like a canary
therefore being a bird ordinary
might perhaps prove most salutary?

“All is not lost!” said the person who put on a few pounds

So let us trudge along
gulping mega fudge
trying hum freedom’s song:
‘Mustn’t ourselves begrudge!’

while mired in deep despair
not going anywhere

Over diverse diets
getting ourselves mesmerized
Emotions run riots
by repeat failure chastised

Such is life in consumer cultures
where nothing is ‘overdoing’
while life as insatiable vultures
clearly assures our undoing

Takes so much more for us to lose weight
than by what we don’t serve on our plate

Vandra hovsamma banor

Att få kunna fridfullt sova
och vakna upp med goda vanor
livets oskattbara gåva
att få vandra hovsamma banor

Hellre få sträva i ett osjälviskt levnadslopp
än äga vräkigt hem med polerad flaggstångsknopp

Misery of misology

For mammoth misology
sprightly slighted ecology
chaotic chronology
they offer no apology

Wasted to first search out facts
in world narcissistic
merely declare what attracts
with quips jingoistic!

While objecting to their reporting
is found culturally unsporting.

-misology = hatred of reasoning; the revulsion or distrust of logical debate, argumentation
-reporting = here: habitually going on too long about one’s own minute, mundane, boorish doings

Where’s the app when needed?

This morning found a lady bug
floating in my grapefruit juice
In place of a ‘so what?’ mere shrug
were hoping work out a truce:

If I do not place my drink
right below her flight path
she’s promises to rethink
where next takes her juice bath

But where’s the app with the math
that predicts a bug’s flight path?

Där vi hör hemma

Måste väl stämma
nu och i all vår tid
att man hör hemma
där finnes sinnesfrid?

Annorstädes blott att kränga
i trendig omåttlighet
ostadigt nätt å jämt klänga
i ständig otålighet

Ge vår rastlösa fåfänga
en ordentligt hjälpsam känga!
