I have not put an artwork up here on my blog for a while. 

Here is a little abstract...ish painting. 

Hope you enjoy!

Midnight Ramble - a medical poem

Midnight Ramble by Paul Howlett

 

Returned, a re-tread

Returned to bed

Sent home

Exit from hospital

Gall bladder removed

Guts improved

All is right

All is wrong

My side started

To bleed…

Was it red, no no

It was green

I ask why it is so

The bile is on go

The guts are all wrong

Return to the source

Return to the place

Return to the hospital

There to face

Repair of the first

Wheeled off to the op room

But wait…

Patients are there

Tis very late

The op room was busy

Returned, I had to wait

Till 3 am for my surgeon

 

To put things straight.




This is a little poem I wrote after spending some time in hospital in the last ten days.  I am now well on the way to recovery.

The Guitar Player - a poem of Rock Music

The Guitar Player by Paul Howlett

 

Bleeding on the fret board

Singing on the breeze

Pounding on the drums

Making a life of ease

Rock and Roll music

Blasting through the trees

Drinking lotsa likker

Smoking funny weed

Women in the bed

Women in the shower

Women in my dreams

Of Rock and Roll Power

Is this real or is it not

The microphone, the song

Adoration, fornication

Many loves many lost

Has the singer lost the plot?

EAP - Great writer...

 

 

 

EAP was a great writer... I am sure you can work out who...

Let me know who you think the writer was...




 

The Joker - who laughs last?

 

 

The Joker - he who laughts at you / me? The World?
Most Jokers that I have seen all have a creepy look about them, and I hope my Joker is in the same tradition...

The Night - a poem about pain

The Night By Paul Howlett

 

Late at night

Feeling the darkness

Feeling the pain

 Bed sheets soaked in sweat

What is wrong

what is right

Was it food

I thought in fright

I worked hard today

Maybe a ripped tendon

Muscle of course

No said the guts

And proceed to roar

The agony total

No help from a pill

Emergency phone call

Ambulance please

What a relief

To be given morphine.

The Fence - Color Panels of Paint

 

This painting was a little sketch that I found a bit of fun after reading a whole book on Van Gogh.

Bright color was an aspect of Van Gogh's work, so I painted a little funky fence with most of the bright working colors that an artist may use...
