A one... A two... A one, two, three, four...! How’s that then, for a classic intro...? But wait a minute... That’s more of a song intro, innit...? And this is more of a story, innit...? So, let’s start again, shall we...? Hi... How are you...? I’m Stanski... Now, don’t worry, I’m not as bad as I seem... I’m a strugling author... Not a tortured artist...! The thing is, I’ve written these books...For people to read... Do you like reading...? Everyone loves a good read, don’t they..? Anyway, I’ve got these books... That I’ve written... I know, you don’t know which books... I’m just getting round to telling you about them, aren’t I...? The thing is... If you want something doing... You might as well do it for yourself... So... I wrote these books myself... Now... These books... Y’know... The ones I’ve written... But haven’t got round to telling you about yet... These books that I’ve written... That I’m telling you about now... Will be available, very soon, for you to download... From Smashwords... To your PC, Tablet, or Mobile Phone...! In fact, pretty much anything connected to the internet...! Thanks to the miracle of modern technology...! It never ceases to amaze... Does it...? A Bit Of Background Stanski is the kind of guy who doesn’t do things by half measures. For example, he’s the guy who went to Thailand in 1999, to see in the New Millennium. He enjoyed it there so much that he decided to stay on for a while. He didn’t return to the UK until October... October 2010...! Stanski began writing in earnest in 2005 while recovering from a motorcycle accident, in the northern city of Chiangmai, in which he sustained serious head injuries. Since then, he has completed four novels, and is currently writing a fifth. Examples of verse by Stanski can be found on his Blog, ‘Elephant Small’ www.says-sir-ten.blogspot.com

Biscuit biting

Tater blighting

Shakespeare Citing

Kung Fu fighting

Chinese kiting

Birthday knighting

Christmas lighting

Wrong ‘un righting

Friday nighting

Second sighting

Outhouse shiting

Hand-eye sleighting

Heathen smiting

Facial spiting

Getting right in

Squeezing tight in

None exciting

Or delighting

As a night in

Real writing

2. Halfway To Southport

Halfway to Southport from Oxford Road

On an upload primed for second-class carriage

No ballast attached to a carefree passage

Just sanctuary; self-assured Refuge

From that overboard, crude and huge stiffy

A bit ‘iffy’. Coming straight in the mouth

Of innocent (till proved guilty) babes from east and south

Hard to swallow is that phallus at the Palace

If you’re no sucker for clocks, so hard-on the eye

Erect in effect, and if correct it’s a sure

Fire no blanks bet that we’re all dead set

To alight at Salford Fire Station

Creations… Exposed to the light of day

As witnessed from a Varsity Viewpoint

By the unhinged Crescent of a Moonshine stare

Or the noontime glare of a sun-kissed highway

Trending to the left, for maximum effect

Or am I viewing it, doing it my way?

Because, for real, I feel we’re about to… er… Peel

To the less than up-beat, off-beat plod

Of Oh My God! Not, Bolton’s finest?

Who wonder why Wanderers walked away

From the hallowed turf of Burnden Park, in the dark

And, oh so mysterious
