but bright and sharp as a knife,
Giving weird thoughts life

| Brian Matheison
Forget the Goon Show;
Spike's epitaph must remain
His jibe at Prince Charles.

| Will Green
Try saying Spaiku
after somebody sneezes
and they'll say thank you

Principle Goon gone
So where do we go from here?
Spike still sadly missed

From Italian trench to home again

"I'll never conform to this,
Oh no, I just have"

Thanks, dear old Spike,
Goon but never forgotten:
I laughed till I cried.

This man was a goon,
A great buffoon I’m quite sure,
His like never seen before.
|
|
|
| Sam Proctor
The sad irony -
He made us laugh so much, while
his psyche was tortured

Ever play by the...[damn!]

The seventeenth syllable

He made it a limerick too.

Haikus miss the point
No rigid form can praise the
Man who broke the mould

Steve Done
Humour, Human, hmmm...

Meaning from two words?

To blow a red nose.

Spike - a long-gone Goon -
He of inspired Goonery -
His like never seen before.And buffoonery...

If spike had known blair,
He'd pull away his arm chair,
Each time he sat down
