Chaos Cocktail
Chaos Cocktail by Stewart Stafford
Herky-jerky’s hanky-panky,
Wakey-wakey, eggs n’ bakey!
Cosmic Mercury’s retrograde trick,
Nilsson’s Brandy Alexander kick.
John heard Bermuda’s jingle-jangle,
Storm surge in an Exorcist Triangle!
Sea shanties upending Behan’s hive,
All stout hornets jigged and jived.
Yoko’s “Oh, no!” on firmer ground,
Her ageing mariner didn’t drown,
Lonely Ringo plays bingo bongo,
Paul, mug

“The Zombie Firetruck by Stewart Stafford
Sirens moan, grave duty's flash of red, A mortuary whiff of something dead, Hoses trained with brains they suck, Your friendly neighbourhood zombie firetruck! All that remained of the human fire team, From the zombie pandemic of 2017, Still in their uniforms, their only treasures, Apocalyptic times call for end-time measures. When they reached the fire, people did scoff, They lurched, staggered, body parts fell off, As they wandered around, fire hoses forlorn, These knightly living dead faced a blazing dawn. The chief, hat off to his skeleton crew, In a voice once alive, now croaky like flu: 'To the hydrant, my ghouls, let's save Gothik Town, Or they'll call Ghostbusters, we'll be the clowns!' A glowering inferno, a cremation scene, Zombie firefighters, brave and light green. Through smoke and ash, they gravely stand, Composed decomposition with skeletal hand. Axeman Bony Ed led their clattering charge, Into the smoke, his cadavers did barge, The townsfolk looked on ...more Stewart Stafford |

Read this when I was 10 years old and loved the rich, Gothic atmosphere and the peek into the mindset and process of fiction's greatest detective.

“When you choose to look down on something, you render yourself incapable of understanding it.”

“Do not weep for those who have found Death's embrace early, for they weep for us that linger on in this mortal world of pain.”

“Anyone who dies by their own hand always has my sympathy. It's easy to sit in judgement on another's struggle from the outside without ever living in their suffocating darkness. If there is an explanation left behind, it usually confirms how relentlessly harsh and unfair they were on themselves. Mourn their release with mercy and gratitude for doing what they were capable of in their short lives.”

“Though we come and go, and pass into the shadows, where we leave behind us stories told — on paper, on the wings of butterflies, on the wind, on the hearts of others — there we are remembered, there we work magic and great change — passing on the fire like a torch — forever and forever. Till the sky falls, and all things are flawless and need no words at all.”

“Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.”

“Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read.”

“What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.”
