The Greenteeth Gallery. Art and Craft pages.
The Greenteeth Laybrinth was founded by Jenny Greenteeth, a mythical creature of Northern and Western England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. Jenny is a boggart, a rather unattractive creature who lives in bogs, ditches and stagnant pools. It is in such environments she has spent most of the last 1000 years. No wonder Jenny's looks aren't what they were when she was a beautiful young kelpie who lured men to their death in fast flowing strams and deep, clear pools. That does not mean Jenny cannot appreciate art and beauty however

The Kelpie
Although our founder, Jenny Greenteeth, does not have any pictures of herself when young because cameras had not been invented here is a picture of another Kelpie, a distant relative. Kelpies, sometimes knoiwn by other names, appear frequently in the myths of aras where Celtic culture flourished, Britain, Southern and Western France and Scandinavia. They also figure in Germanic and Gotic myth.

All Architects Are Twats
Many modern architects share a total disregard for the aesthetic tone of the areas that will surround their buildings. Their attitude can be summed up as "we are very clever people and have lots of bits of paper to prove it, therefore we are right and nobody else's opinion is worth listening to. It is exactly the same attitude as that displayed by the boy-scientists this blog has spent so much time berating for their hubris.

ANY POET IN A STORM New Poems from Greenteeth Writers
Fathers Day
Ian R Thorpe reflects on the commercialisation of parenthood and the real value of family life.

Atomic Verse
The science of atomic reactioons might leem like barren territory for a poet but Ian R Thorpe conjures some very interesting verse from it.

The Aspirational
This poem is a hectic anti - materialim rant written with an insistent rhythm, in performance it is a poetic earworm. Another incitement to reject convention from a writer who should have been one of poetry's bad boys except that the Arts establishment Politically Correct Thought Police do not like bad boys or individuals now.

On The Imminent Marriage Of A Former Lover
Poets and writers used to be hedonists, Byron was described as mad, bad and dangerous to know, Coleridge was a drug addict, Dylan Thomas a hellraising drunk many other were prodigious drinkers, shaggers, promiscuous homosexuals and compuslive gambers. More recently however poetry and literatute like so much of cultural life has been hijacked by The Politically Correct Thought Police. The fightback starts here. This poem is about feral passion and rule breaking sex in the well ordered world of suburbia.

Devil Raise Me From The Grave
Poets and writers used to be hedonists, Byron was described as Mad, bad and dangerous to know, Coleridge was a drug addict, Dylan Thomas a hellraising drunk many other were prodigious drinkers, shaggers, promiscuous homosexuals and compuslive gambers. More recently however poetry and literatute like so much of cultural life has been hijacked by The Politically Correct Thought Police, the righteous hand wringers who would turn all of us into unthinking automatons, slaves of the all powerful state. In Devil Raise Me From The Grave a man looks back from middle age, yearing for the life he imagined would be his...

Statistics Graphs And Hockey Sticks
The case for carbon driven anthropogenic global warming was made they said, the science was settled brandishing the infamously phoney "hockey stick graph. All that remained, our leaders said was tu let the scientists loose with unproven technologies and unforseeable consequences, let the politicians loose with unprecedented taxes to tax each journey and tax us when we sit at home and to let loose the billionaires to make markers in self indulgence andtrade carbon allowances. It was a scam, the science was not settled. 2000 years ago Cicero asked the Roman senate "Cui bono," who benefits. We should always ask they same when scientists and politicians tell us they are acting in the public good. Text Only The Offcomer
A short verse reminding everyone to care for the birds in this current bout of "global warming" that has seen temperatures plunge to record lows in the coldest November and December on record.

From The Darkness
A poem for the vernal equinox from Ian R. Thorpe's Eightfold Year set which celbrates the festivals and season of the North European pagan year. These nature poems concentrate on the rhythms of the natural cycle, birth, growth, maturity, decline, death and rebirth and relate them to the cycles of human life. From the darkness looks at the return of life to the landscape after the dark, cold days of winter.

Abstract Expressionism
We live in an age of plenty, when poverty is defined by not having the latest designer clothing or an internet enabled smartphone, there is a new, invisible kind of poverty. It can be seen in the faces of people who look affluent and well provided for, in the emptiness in their eyes. It is not poverty through lack of money but deprivation of those bonds of family and community that anchor us spiritually. Such separation can often lead to loneliness, isolation, depression and insanity, true poverty among material plenty as depicted in this story in verse based on a real event.

After You
A hedonists denunciation of politically correct hypocrisy; a savage indictment of the self righteous, authoritarian, politically correct left by a lifelong anarchist who has rebelled against everything and is not yet ready to be told what he has to think or believe. by British poet Ian R Thorpe
A Pale Horse - poem Ian R Thorpe, music Brother Bastion
A poem of grief for a lover who might have taken her own life ... or a lament for a fantasy. Why was she hanged from a willow tree by a stream, what's important about the redness of her lips or the contrast of her back hair against the white linen? The rider on the pale horse is an obvious reference to the Bible but how can the sacrifice of the narrative voice let the woman live again. Those are just a few hints to help you unravel this mystical lyric with so many pagan flavours.
Love Like ChainsTo many people love is the thing that sets them free but to some it is a prison. This poem by English poet Ian R. Thorpe looks at how some women in particular are slaves to jealousy and wear their love like chains.

  • Ancient Rites - Guilty FeelingsAnybody who has never cheated has never been in love. Even if it is only a dream, a wish, a desire to be with someone else, if you look at your partner and see someone else's face. Quite simply the rules imposed on us only make most people unhappy. The only rule to be applied constantly for a happy partnership is "tolerate and forgive - we're all human." As for those constraints imposed by creed and convention, when the hormones speak, rules should all be suspended until chemical balance is restored. Armageddon - Ian R Thorpe

    2012? Who cares about Nostradamus, the Mayan calendar and Armageddon - its not the end of the world is it

    Race For Life by Kate Burnside
    I returned at the weekend to my old stamping ground of Bath to take part in the 5K, all women, Race For Life organised as a national fundrasing event by Cancer Research UK. Both a privilege and a challenge to be involved, but my daughter and I came romping home in just under 38 minutes... here's to 10K next year!

    Love Of The SeeingA poem with a Universal theme by A Pax
