23/10Train Trash Talk

to quote...
If you're a plastic surgeon
and you have got
looks, good looks
you'll have sex with one
or two 
Or so
of your patients.

21/10 I, My, Is

Love
I love
My love
My love
Is my love
And I love
My love

22/10 Food

I gifted you my heart
And you gave me vegan bolognese
I love you with all my soul
And thank the heavens
For good Italian food

20/10 Soon To End

Soon I will be going back
Into a life of normality
Soon I will be heading back home
And things will be the same
Same flat, same street
Same friends, same world
Except one thing
Except one name
Except one man
Who I love for eternity

19/10 Pigeon

My dear little grey thing
With your bobbing head
Thank you for following me
All my journey through
As I thought of romance
You were here with
And as I rode on the train
Your image was beside
YOu flew to meet me
At least that I imagine
And now I sit here dreaming
And you are here too
You came from the Michael Square
I came from Glasgow
And now here we are companions
Friends in Verona, little pigeon
And I will never forget

18/10 Balcony

I see you
Up there, hair waving in the moonlight
I see you
Fair maiden
In my mind's eye.
I stand here, looking down
Over the crowds as my photo is taken
And imagine
Him climbing up this vine
The necklace falling to his hand
You blowing kisses into the air
Saying, "Farewell my love.
My love, farewell.
I will see you tomorrow to be wed."

17/10 Tomb

I want to be here
When I die
I want people to imagine
My tomb like this
Even though it may not be hers
It is clear
She is beloved
She lives on in literature history
She is created by paper
And she is alive by that at least

15/10 Statue

Its abundantly clear
To me that
She was just a girl
In a world
And she got whirled away
They say
It is the best romance
But really they were
Just children
Now hands clamour to touch her
Her breast is shiny
By desire
By those wanting to reach her
And ask her blessing
Dear Juliet
Let me find my man

16/10 Go, Fly, Land

I go
We go
To wherever the wind takes us
I fly
You fly
And run to romance

14/10 Shakespearean Kate

When I think of you
In the past
Scribbling down all these words
Making up these very terms
I imagine you
Walking these streets
Imagining your Kate dancing
Under the covered walkways
She was a shrew you called her
But I think her bright
I call her intelligent
And independent
She just found her right man
In these streets of the university town
Where I expected more but found rain
I imagine you walking, striding
And want to be the same
How you got your inspiration for here
I will never know
Maybe it is just the tolling bells
And the history
That inspired you so
But at least for now I can seek a garden
And imagine Kate there
Sitting on a porch with her beloved
With her wild nature and wilder hair
Singing into the future and the past
So I can hear her now

13/10 Rain

Tinker
Tunker
Pippit
Plop
Will this rain
Ever stop?

13/10 Padua

Dull little city
With drab little windows
And ill-begotten architechture
All I wanted was some inspiration
And all I got was students

12/10 Train

On the train today
Saying goodbye to that place
On the train today
Moving across the earth's face
Waving farewell to the fields
As they pass by
Hearing the whirring wheels
Of the train taking us away
On the train today
Saying goodbye to that world
On the train today
Moving into a new story

11/10 Venice

I can hear the voices
Of those having walked before
Striding these cobbles
Resting in these balconies
I listen to their foosteps
The ancient songs they sang
I imagine their lives before this
Before the international desire
A desire to come here and to see
A desire to walk these streets
And take part of the scene
To take advantage of the lovers
Take advantage of the lost
I imagine those before us here
Who called this home
Who didn't understand tourism
Who just lived here, didn't worry
About the sinking city that this now is

10/10 To Sea

Shimmering without mercy
Showing the way to history
It is a light that calls you
Calls all of us to come towards
Soundless speckles on a watery pathway
Making the roads, showing the walkway
The cobbled narrow paths
That sidle by the waters
What is it that made the ancient men
Build such a place with little land
Construct the world upon
These rivers polluted
Perhaps it was the light
Shimmering on the water
Calling us to glory, to life
To go out to sea

09/10 Breathe

Breathe
It's all you can do
Breathe
And be new
Breathe in
The foreign air
Breathe in as you
Lie in the hotel bed
Breathe
And look left
And he is there
You know he is
You feel he is
Breathe

08/10 Sonnet 1

When I first gazed upon your face so fair
Little realisation or know had I
No indication to be aware
That you were to be my questing ally
My closest companion in the wild fray
Facing battles and behemoths of life
Becoming mightier partners daily
Gaining to this day as husband and wife
And now I stand with you my dear, my heart
Ready to strive from this bonny day
Hand in hand, nought to be broken apart
By any which threats come our unified way
Dear Gordon, I thank you for loving not just me
But also bunny, who makes our family three

07/10 Tomorrow

Tomorrow it is
Tomorrow is to come
Tomorrow it is
My life will change

06/10 Away Today

I'm away today
Back home to my land
I'm away today
To make my last stand
To be what I am
To be what I was
And later on
My dear we'll find
The dangerous thoughts
In our minds
Are in fact just fantasies
Of our lives to be
I'm going home today
To say goodbye to my
Past and family

05/10 Longing

Longing to be
Longing to want
Longing to love
And longing to have
Longing to shout
And longing to cry
Longing to live
Longing to die

04/10 Goodbye

Goodbye my love
Tomorrow will be
A day where I am different

03/10 Life

Living up
And living close
Educated
But unemployed
Loving here
And loving there
Going home
And coming back

02/10 Fortune

Let fortune be my fortune
Let fortune
Be my guide
Let fortune
Turn her wheel clockwise
And lead me to survive

01/10 TV

Very soon
That will be me
Going up
To meet my destiny

30/09 Tomorrow or Today

Tomorrow
Can be a day
Of new beginnings
Or that could be
Today

29/09 Repeated

I'm all that you see
All you know
But
Previously there were some
There were many
You see one face
Repeated
But in fact there are many
On street corners
And in malls
Crying out to be heard
But
We see them as one face
Repeated

28/09 The Wave

The wave is waving to you
And I'm coming through
I'm building up a party to raid
The wave is coming to you

27/09 Soon

Soon I see
That will be me
Crawling up the street
Made of faces
Soon I see
That will be I
Holding the arm
Of my sperm giver
Soon I see
That will be the self
Smiling fakely
Nodding to those
As heart goes
I hate this

25/09 And The

And the fear grips
And the tears come
And you build an ocean
Out of your sorrow

26/09 Rising

Turn me
Upside down
And then I'll be
Rising
Not falling

24/09 Me

Don't tell me
What to think
What to do
Where to go
Who to tell
I'm my own
Thinker
Do-er
Goer
Sayer
I tell and write
And laugh
And be
Who I want to be

23/09 Fall Up

Hunger
Thirst
Higher
Moving
Upwards
Going up
Up up
Until we
Drown
And down
And fall

22/09 Do this, Can I?

It came to this
This panic
This fear
It came to this
These tears
This sorrow
It came to this
This racing heart
These shaking words
"I can't do this,
I can't do this,
I can't..."

21/09 These Are

These are the days of
Murderous intent
Don't give me hope
When I
See none
You'll
Be surprised
How undermined I can be
Underwhelmed
Forgotten

19/09 Who?

Who are you
Again
Are you me
A friend
Or are you a
Enemy
Coming to eat me?

18/09 Work III

Literally
I cannot
Not even
Any sort of
Any
Creative
Input

17/09 Work II

I think
I'm on the brink
Of pure insanity

20/09 Trapped

Soft caress
You stroke your fingers
Up my arm, gently
Soothing
Flattening down light whispy hairs
Blowing a soft breeze
From between your lips
Sighing
Gently and singing
My name
In a voice comparable to
An angelic mouse
Oh I am caught
In time and in place
Summoned to your attention
Entrapped
By your touch and gaze
I am a prisoner
Barely able to escape
But this is
Voluntary
I want to be here
Trapped
In your embrace

16/09 Medicine

There's a reason why
You let a mad person know
WHY YOU'RE ABOUT
to do something
Why you can't
Seem to get
The BLooDY MEdicAtioN they need

15/09 Boom

BOOM
and the chord is struck
THUMP
and they all know
THUNDER
and it's clear the shot
Exploded this time
Guaranteed this time
killed this time

14/09 Christian

Watching them preach
But who am I to judge
The people flock around
It's just nothing I would do
We share the same religion
But I express it differently
They ask them on the streets
But I sit here and show
They ask if they would like to talk
I sit here waiting for a friend
Politely, they nod when declined
I just smile non-chalantly
If they came to me I'd just say
That it's okay, I'm like them
I'm just a quiet Christian,
Living a quieter life
Expressing myself through deeds

13/09 You

Hunger
For you
Desire
For you
I'm wanting
You
Daily

12/09 Fae In The Night

They came they did
They came my dear
From over the hills and beyond
They came they did
They came my dear
And held us close to heart
They came they did
They came my dear
And danced us to distraction
They came they did
They came my dear
And stole the youngest away

11/09 Autumn Chant

Sun times
Breezy times
It is now ending
August times
September times
Let the autumn come

11/09 Challenge

Life
Is but a challenge
That you need to get through

10/09 Pack

Let me not be your crutch
But let me be your guide
As we go through this life
Suffering
For I am not a lone bird
I am but one lost from their flock
I see the others
Sparingly
Flying to and fro in a daily life
And eyes meet
And paths cross
But we fly on, going own ways
Suffering
You're not the only one, my dear
You're not the only one crying
There are many others
Many faces
Buts it's okay
It will all be okay
You're one of a pack now

09/09 These

Hunger
Is a feeling
Thirst
Is a necessity
Passion
Is a romance
Laughter
Is an experience

08/09 Focus

Let us be not of
Simple minds
But expand ourselves
To other worlds
Let us not
Confine our own lives
But instead focus on
The other times

07/09 Day At Work

Hunger
Insatiable
I just can't wait
To be out

06/09 Chair

Chair is there
Over there
In that corner
It sits
And waits
For a person
To take advantage of it
Sitting
Waiting
Or does it stand
Stand and wait
On four legs, one broken
Empty and
Lonely
Calling silently
Fill me
Fill me
Fill me

05/09 Working

Seek your serenity
This is an impossiblility
I'm a writer, poet, artist of words
How I got here - it's absurd
Failing in life is not my forte
Why won't these nightmares go away
The grimoires, the hatred, the scourges of death
They don't understand or respect a certain depth
Of valour, might, wisdom and wit
So I've been condemned to this grumpy pit

04/09 Take Me

Take me back
To the time
When we dined
On wine
And danced until
Our bodies were sore
Take me back
To the place
Where we found
Our disgrace
And sent feelings
Onto the floor
Take me back
To the room
Where we heard
The boom
And everyone died
So their hearts
Could soar

03/09 Why

Why
Why can't I
Keep up with you
Stick with you
Catch you
Why
Why can't I
Be the one
Have the one
Love the one
Of my dreams

02/09 Rain

Let the rain
Come again
Let it wash
Over me
Flittering away my
Indiscretions
My confessions
My preconceptions
I'm lost
In a dry heat
Starving and thirsty
All I need is
Refreshing rain
To wash me clean
Again

01/09 Stuck

Stuck in a dead end
Looking forwards to the weekend
I don't know
I don't know
How I can cope

30/08 Capitalism

I walk this walk every day
And it won't ever go away
It's ingrained in my memory
Ingrained in my head
But I want to be elsewhere
Like - in my bed
But this walk is compulsory
For our capitalist reign
I say it's stupid
But the earth says, "wrong again."
I've read interesting articles
That say thr time is near
That post-capitalism will rear a head
And and say that
It's alright
It's all dead
You can be what you want today
You can be who you want today
But that's not true
It's never going to be true
Because I know I'll be walking this walk
I know I'll be talking these words
Tomorrow
And the day after
And the day after

29/08 Boom

Boom
And I am broken
Boom
And my heart falls
Boom
And it lands on the floor
Boom
Outside ribcage walls
Boom
I'm bending over
Boom
I'm falling down
Boom
I'm not really here
Boom
Kick me out of town

28/08 Retort

But you are here
So face it
You've got no other choice
The others refused you
They left you in the muck
In the 'sometime afters'
In the 'I'll get back to you's
Face it
You're a left behind
And we're the only ones
Who will accept you

27/08 Face It

Face it
I'm not meant for this
Face it
I'm not
Meant to be here
I'm dealing with stress
In a place
Where I'm a mess
Face it
Please
I'm not meant to be here

26/08 If I was

If I was an artist
I'd paint a picture
To make you look just write
If I was a song man
I'd write you a lyric
To make your name
Sound sweet
If I was a writer
I'd write you a poem
To make you sound
The best
If I was a girl
I'd invite you into my heart
And keep you to my chest

25/08 You

In a month or two
I'm getting married to you
When I met you
I was broken inside
But you placed your hand
On my heart
And patched me up right
I feel alive
When I am beside
You

24/08 Insert Job

Early morning
And I'm
On the train to a job I don't care about
Early morning
And I'm
Starving, tired
Exhausted
Wishing it was the weekend again
Early morning
And I'm
Waiting for work to arrive
For the day to start
Repeated movements and words
Saying, "hello this is-"
Saying, "hello this is-"
Saying, "hello this is -insert job-,
How may we help you."

23/08 Time

I am
running behind
from time
It hardly
exists in my mind
I am
running out
of time
I'm going
mad
utterly mad
I am
already mad
As time
catches up with me
surrounds me
drowns me
It is me
I have time

22/08 False Promises, False Identities

What I wanted to know
Was you
What I got to know
Was a stranger

21/08 Dreams

Dive
Into the system
Of an alternative reality
When you eat
The sweet
From the tree
Of good joy
And you taste
Success
With every breath
You know you are
In
The garden of dreams

29/08 Poetry at Rio

The room is caught
Silence
As breaths are held
And eyes are widened
And feet
Tap tap
In time with the rhythm as
She speaks
Words of feeling and love
And meaning and virtue
Whispering
More than reason
More than a novel
More than
Words themselves
Pause
Breathe
Nod
Applause after the end
And smile and be
Refreshed
Amused
Abused
In your mind
For in this room is the power
The power of words
The power of change
As the people
Silent
Are watching the
Words
The movement of the mouth
They are
Amused
Abused
Applaud
Words

20/08 Hold-ing

Holding
That's what
We're meant to be doing
What arms are for
What hands are for
Holding
Doesn't feel perfect
Unless it's with you

19/08 let's be

Let's be
A couple of sparrows
Dancing and lancing
And dashing and froing
Let's be
A couple of deer
Prancing and moaning
And thrashing and belting
Let's be
A couple of otters
Splashing and swishing
Holding and chuckling
Let's be
A couple of hyenas
Laughing and chattering
Running and loving
Let's be
A couple of lovers
Dancing and prancing
Holding and loving

18/08 I am what I am

I am what I am
And there is nothing
That will change that
Because I am
Who I was born
What I became
What I was made
And there is no changing that
So don't try to change me

17/08 Wind

Wind blow
Wind chase
Wind hiss
Wind howl
Wind flow
Wind come
Wind laugh
Wind whisper
Wind whistle
Wind jump
Wind fly
Wind escape
Wind rush

16/08 Colour

White shadows
On a white background
On a blue canvas
With a pinkish tinge
Uplit by yellow
Downlit by grey
The gulls are circling
Round again

15/08 Conquer She Will

Coming
Dearest
Round the mountain
Coming
Giddying up
Over the hill
Over the crest
Through the copse
Out from the shadow
She'll be coming
Around the mountain
Ready to
Conquer

14/08 Reality

This is what you call
A re-education
This is what you call
A discrepancy
When the world comes
When the lifelessness comes
Reality falls
And you are hopeless
Not in university
Not in sleepy Kansas
Anymore
Not in the pretend
Not in the expected
You are in the sorrow
The realisation
That is was really all for nothing

13/08 Matchless

I never meant to
Feel this way
About someone else
You see
I'm in love
Again
Yet again with another
One more
Once more to the fro
I'm again
Falling in love
Falling deep
So deep under the spell
Of your matchless eyes

12/08 sorry after

There's hatred in their eyes
I don't despise
How they feel
Hurt and depressed
Sorrow at best
Crying every day
At the loss they felt

But I can also see
That his family
Don't deserve the loss either
As they watch through the glass
At their son breathing his last
A spectator sport
Like an animal in a cage

Just because he made the wrong choice
Just because he was caught with the gun
Just because he took an officer's life
That one second
Just one second
And he was sorry after

10/08 I love you

When you're not there
I love you
When you are gone
I love you
When you stare
I love you
When you cheer
I love you
When you shout
I love you
When you scream out
I love you
When you're beside me
I love you
When you're across the room
I love you
When you shot
I love you
When he screamed
I love you
When he died
I love you
When you're over there
Behind the rail
Beside the officer
And not with me
I still love you
When you're sentenced
I love you
When we meet through glass
I love you
When there's tears
I love you
And when it comes to the appeal
And it fails
I love you
When you are led
I love you
To that room
I love you
And I watch with them
I love you
But they aren't my enemies
They are just victims
Of a mistake, an error
On your part
I love you
And so you are strapped down
I love you
And they glare
I love you
And we all watch
I love you
The family and I
As you die
Your eyes on mine
As we both murmur
"I love you."

11/08 Arran

Let me be back at that place
That paradise
At that place and that time
Let me run along the stones again
Throwing pebbles into the sea
Let me laugh as I play as a child again
Collecting shells and pieces of flint
Let me pretend to be a pirate again
Let me sail to Norway
Let me go a-viking
Let me sail

01/08 Sarcasm

I'm just trying my friend
Trying to pretend
That I'm not affected
By your hatred
You scorn and you poke
And you call it a joke
A jest, a jibe, sarcasm
But there's a point between
Being funny and being mean
That line that is thin
And delicate
So hold on to what you say
Don't open your mouth and yell
Instead consider what it is
What I am and you are
Whose the victim
And whose the star
I don't mind façade
And I love some farce
But don't be rude, don't be
Destroyer

09/08 Warning

Warning - warning...
Nerds on the street
Geeks out of computers
Just watching a different screen
I've been playing
Pokemon Go
Chasing the pikachu
And following the eevee
I'll find the arcanine
And search for a karp
And he flaps like a twat
Using only splash
Where you live
Depends what you get
I have no pokeballs
But red aren't a threat
I'm team mystic
Obviously
Because it's the best
And I want a ninetails
But -
Warning! Warning!
The general thesis is
To ban it in Iran
For fear of communication
Parents telling their kids
To keep in because
They might get run over
Or they might socialise
Oh dear, the nerds are out
The 20 year olds are suddenly wise
They are out and about and
Stalking the parks
Stealing others gyms and
Rewatching a kids show
Warning, this is
Pokemon Go

06/08 The Red Sofa

The red sofa
Is my comfort
It's low back and cuboid
It's a nylon weave
I can sit or lean
On its my bottom height arm
And i can take a breath
Before I walk in to the unknown
I'm awaiting an interview
15 minutes early
So I'm in the lobby
With the sofa
And its the best thing in my life
It's soft and its comfy
It's a warm soothing hue
A sort of crimson-scarlet
And it's letting me calm

05/08 No Trump

Wouldn't you like
Me to be a flower
Wouldn't you like
Me to be thin
Wouldn't you like
Me to do nothing
Be nothing
Say nothing
Just stand there
Cute
Oh yes I endorse my cute
But that's because it's all I have going for me
I'm a woman
I live in a world
Dominated by men
By uncles and grandfathers
And husbands and sons
Of great male bosses
And male testosterone
There's only some women
Who are I charge
Like Angela Merkel
Or - God help us -
May and Clinton (possibly)
But we're still stuck
In 1922
Where there are housewife's and housekeepers
Black maids and Russian brides
Where there are people paid
To be whores
Or rather they are owned
By pimps
All male of course
We're a modern society
But we're living farther back
So USA
Don't vote for Trump
Whose just a great hack.

04/08 Insomnia

Sometimes at night
You lie awake
And you think
For heaven's sake
I can't get to sleep
No matter how I lie
I toss and turn
And think just why
Why won't your brain
Turn off and rest
Instead of worrying
Over what it thinks is best
Or what it thinks
Is the very worst
Of giant evil dogs
And balloons that burst
Of loved ones killed
And laptop stolen
Of my rabbit suffocating
On a piece of pollen
On hyperventilating children
Your looking after
Of a leaky pipe
A split rafter
And of a heated mind
And raking nails
Of a witches brew
Using puppy dogs' tails
Of Shakespeare's ghosts
And his play unnamed
It's bad luck you remember
To speak it, be shamed
Superstitions come out
In the dread of night
When your common sense
Has taken flight
You are just a simple husk
A shadow of you
And you cannot sleep
Because all these things are true

03/08 Hold

Hold
Everyone cry
Hold
Onto your heart
Hold onto your hats
Hold onto your shoes
Socks
Umbrellas
And hair
Before you run out of
Everything
Before you fail
Before you die
Before all fades to nothing

02/08 Hark the green

Hark the herald bunnies sing
Glory to the new born forest
Peace in the warren and lovely grass
Gaia and sinners reconciled
Joyful all ye environmentals cry
Join the triumph of the earth
With the greenest voice proclaim
Gaia is reborn as a god again
Hark the herald bunnies sing
Glory to the new made earth

31/08 Live

Laugh
Like no one cares
Hum
Like no one's there
Stare
Like they can't see you
Breathe
Like they want you to live

30/08 Movement

I'm a mover and a shaker
I'm a dancer and heart breaker
I'm a groover and a laugher
And a I'll-get-you-after
I'm an optimist and specialist
For being against the pessimist
And I'm grinning and I'm winking
As this boat is sinking

29/07 Swallow

Where did my life go?

Many moons ago I was
Dancing
Amongst the flowers
There was a bright sun
And a bold swallow
Flittering nearby
Beak agape and
Scooping
Up the mayflies, midges, bees
I had pigtails
Like my friends and
Didn't have a care in the world
Except to be happy

Now I am sitting
In a chair
Reclining but
Trying to look busy as my
Desk piles up with work
And I only watch
The birds float by
The chair is hard and doesn't work properly
Too awkward for my legs
And I have to stare at
A screen

Oh yes I have my little screen
And it's my life screen
But I hide it from keen eyes
Pretending to
Work work
But all I want to do is find the swallow
Again

28/07 Gravity

Gravity
Thou force eternal
Invisible and indivisible
Thou power mighty
Strong and true
Never letting go
With the grip of a
Thousand battalions
Getting stronger and tighter
With each condensing planet
You hold us to the earth
Keeping us from falling
You let the moon men
Leap to great heights
And the John Carters more so
They soar like eagles
Yet always come back
To the surface safety
For thy art undying
Undefying and underlying
Everything
That is existent

27/07 Manatee

Come on
Depravity
Let me
Surrender to thy
Insanity
Fill me with
Serenity
That has madness inside
Let me feel the
Humanity
Of a wild
Manatee
Who may look like
Nothing
Yet holds more morals in his fin
Than your fucking
Whole body

26/07 Hold

Hold hold
Hold the door
And hold the phone
Hold the gate
And hold the stone
Hold the cup
And hold the wall
Let go the flood
So it drowns us all

25/07 Suggest

Who are you to suggest
That I have not
The mind of a scholar
Who are you to say
That I have not
The spirit of a warrior
I tell you
Fighters are found mine pits
Writers in the dark hell
Fluffy and cute are
Found in the scaled monster
The beloved
In the scorned

24/07 Parrots

Where to do
What to go
It's a strange world here
With parrots in the snow
Ice breaks on the sand shore
Sun shines down below
And there are birds restless
Meandering
Parrots in the snow
Little does cooing
Diving down on rodents fine
And a great hawk digesting leaves
There are parrots
In the snow
This is a strange world and
A strange land
Full of big people and little chiefs
But it's a pure place
A good place
With parrots in the snow

22/07 Heart Of Me

You

You are

You are the

You are the heart

You are the heart of

You are the heart of me

You are the heart of me that

You are the heart of me that I never

You are the heart of me that I never thought that I would have

When I walk through the fire

When I walk

You are there

You are

There to comfort me

Comfort me

When I

When I walk

When I walk through

When I walk through the flames

You are there

Comfort me

You

The heart of me you are

To comfort me

When I walk

Walk I through

The fire

The flames

That

That threaten

That threaten to consume me

You

You comfort

You comfort me

Threatening

But you are comforting

The centre

The pinpoint whole

You are the centre

You are the

Heart

Of

Me

23/07 glasgow in the morning

A city awakens
With the first dreary-eyed inhabitants
They crawl through the streets
Dragging tired torsos
On spindly shaky legs
Head bobbing
To no particular sound
But the beat of the metropolis
The beast of little sleep
That comes once a day
When the dark brief hours in summer
Dark long hours in winter
Come to rest shadows
On the warren that is alive
On the cobbled walkways
The thick tarmac laid
The odd bulbous tenements
And the modern interpretations
Sewing the city together
With spittle and spider-thin thread
This is Glasgow awakening
Yawn and say hello to the sun

21/07 Is it?

This is a poem

15/07 Meta V

It's some
Words
That seem to be
Seem to
Make sense
Sometimes
If you say them in the right way
Right phrase
Right words
Done

20/07 Emoticons

Cry
Laugh
Plane
Clap
Bow
Pizza
Heart
Car
Nod
Horse
Smile
Cup
Storm
Sun
It's
Weird

19/07 Being A Christian

Echo to the past
Thou had the pain
You suffered and died
And rose again
It's absurd to see
All those who mock
Then act equal
To others with belief
Or race
Or culture
Or lifestyle
Or job
But we get the brunt
Of the laughs and jokes
When all those else
With differences
Are respected by law

18/07 My love

I love my love
My love I love
Loving my love
Is love
I have love
For my love
My love has love
For his love
I

17/07 Reaper

The call of the grim
Calls me near
I near his clanging bell
His crooked footsteps
Clacking bone on the stone
Cobbles
I close my eyes
And his breath is cold
Shivering the back of my neck
A whisper of freshness
And death
He is near
And he is coming
Coming for you, for him, for I
With exposed eye holes
No nose and a hinged jaw
His sharpened blade swings
Swings
To meet your throat

16/07 Racism

What I have here in my hand

Is a heart
That pumps with time
It accelerates and punctuates
And communicates and
Has the shakes
But
It's just a heart, the same heart
It could belong to you
Or me

Okay, right so perhaps
A heart is smaller to fit with the body
Mine would be tiny, like a child's
Okay, it might have a fault - it's true
But in the end they look quite the same
Same colour, same four chambers
Same blood rushing through their core
Same feel, same touch,
Same warmth, destination and occupation
So in a way
We're sisters 

But on the outside we are not
I have green eyes and you have brown
I have straight hair, you have that
Afro-carribean frizz I love to
Play with, plait with, laugh with
My skin is pale as a waxing moon
And yours is as chocolate as a coffee bean 

(Or chocolate)
Our hands are different sizes and shades
Our bodies are different shapes
I'm an hourglass, you're an apple
I have big boobs, for my stature
And yours are more reasonable
You have big feet
I have tiny
And when we walk together we need to
Find a pace that suits us both
And when we walk with our friend
Yes she wears a scarf around her head
And we
Get torments
Such as, "Go back to Isis."
But she doesn't have a cousin named Isis.

Instead her cousin is called Mo.

And her heart is the same as ours,
All bloody and fleshy and same four chambers
Same boom boom when it beats
Same rhythm when it repeats
It's soft and it's bold
It never gets cold
So long as its in the body

So long as we keep it inside

So lets keep it in

Our forms

Inside of us

Which all conform

Because underneath the skin

And brain and thoughts

We're the same
We're exactly the same

In fact

We are human

14/07 Me

I will be what I am
I will be what I can
I am what I have always been
And will always be me

13/07 Dull Minds

Let us not of dull minds be
Instead we talk and improve
Our brains capacity to love
The way our experience
Effects our hearts
Have the intelligence
Of a thousand worlds and
Hear the opinion of a thousand more
Let the dullness fade away
And we'll be awakened
And enlightened
And be okay

12/07 Fear

Silence in the universe
As the hearts race and people breathe
But pause with baited wait
As there are moments of apprehension
And the still expressions of fear
As imaginations run riot
Nightmares begin to run
Upon the fields of dream
They canter over brain cells
And in the consciousness
Filling all with shivering tenderness
Feeling so very uncomfortable
And unprotected from the horrors
Those await them there
They sneak in the darkness
Wait in the imagined realm
They shush with eyes of flame
And hiss dark words
They're there when your back is turned
There in the hatred and lust
There in the greed of humanity
Born of thoughts and dust
Shadows playing on your mind
Faces appearing where there are none
This is the world of fear my dear
And you can never be free of its hold

11/07 Sceptic

Sceptic
Hunger
What do you want?
But to believe?

10/07 Content

Content
Is a seven letter word
That is difficult to explain
It is a understanding
And an affordable acknowledgement
That is verb and adjective the same
I am content
To be content
The content man is
Willing to be

09/07 Boys

Fat boy
Thin boy
White boy
Black boy
Gay boy
Straight boy

Guilty boy
Innocent
Laughing boy

Asian boy
Scottish boy
Family boy
Orphan boy
Man boy
Girly boy
Strong boy
Weak boy

08/07 Fool Them

What if
The world was just some magic trick
An illusion for
All of us not to see
As we blindly wander
To and fro
Chasing the Pokemon
Desires and want
The jobs and our future
And all we have is
Our bodies
That are cut and screwed
With plastic and false blades
Anger and hidden doors
Smoke and mirrors
And a mute midget
Saying nothing but
Fuck off
Fuck you
Fuck the world
What if the world was an illusion
And all we had was our
Pincushion bodies
We suffer and strive
And all doesn't really matter
In the very utter end
Because at the end
It's a trick
And all we've seen
Hungered after
Loved and died for
Is all some great big joke
Ha ha
Of a guy in the sky
Of a blind magician going
Fooled you
Fooled you
I fooled you

07/07 You

Closeness

Holding on to
The loving

This is
Paradise my friend
You find everything

You want me
In your arms

Love

Lust

Hold

06/07 Anxiety

It's this quaking
I feel like I'm a
Superhero
But instead of making the
Earthquake outside
Im making it
Inside of me
It's
Cold and it's terrifying
My heart is thundering
Madly and loud
And the people
All around
All over
Are making me panic
More

05/07 understand

Oh.my darling
My bloody chested darling
Rusty darling
You follow
That which we
Don't t understand
You are
Beyond
Comprehension and
Knowledge
Let me try to
Know who you
Are

04/07 Thunder

Let this thunder
Rain on your parade
Fill you with fear
Make you hold your breath
Let this lightening
Fill your eyes
Brighten the skies
And hold the terror
As your heart beats
In your broken chest
Boom boom
In your holey breast
Boom boom
In your head

03/07 Face of Death

What is this creature
That stares us in the face
It's eyes are black
Like obsidian
And it has the smile
Of a jester
It's ridiculous and champion laugh
Stills our bodies with cold
It chills
Thrills in fear
And makes us hate

02/07 Forever Clouds

Diamonds
Snowflakes
Snowflakes decoration, gold with diamonds
Prince and princess, showing her the waterfall pool with legend
Find diamond earrings
Doves play big part in imagery
Going into clouds
Years later girl in 80s white dress
Running into the country side
Escaping her fate
Like that of the woman in the legend
And the prince and princess.

01/06 Strangeness on a train

Where do you live?
Where are you from?
From a town a long way away.
What do you do?
What do you work as?
I work as a writer, a writer of songs.
What is your ambition?
Where do you want to go?
I'm going to change the world.
How will you do that?
How will it change?
My hands are glorious active.

30/06 light

Light
Bright
In my eyes
Less light
Come night
Sleep right
Tight

29/06 Manipulation

Walking
Is that hard baby
Is so hard honey
Is like running
So come to me
My hun
Can't reach that far
So you come here
My baby darling
And bring it to
Me

28/06 Dissocia

Fuzzy
Blurry
Nausea rising
Can't see because
Of the tide turning
Eyes lost
In a fog
Can't see naught
But what you colour
Pink
Blue
Line up the sky
I'll sigh a while
And then wonder why
Why this
Is the way it is
Why I am the
Way I am

27/06 Let me go

Let me go then
To that land where
I have a life beyond this
And you do not know me
In fact no one knows me
Not the birds nor trees but
You will be in my mind and
I shall be in a dream

26/06 Graduating

Today I became a graduate
My life changed the permanent
Six times I choked back tears
Seven times I handled fears
As I strode to get my hood and hit
I realised that my life was shit
I have no idea, no hope
I just don't know if I can cope
But let me to you truly say
That I'm really really not okay

25/06 Pretense

Smile
Even though you
Don't feel it
Dance
Even though you
Can't step
Laugh
Even though you
Physically will be sick
Just be happy
Be happy
Why don't you be happy?
Because you're just sad
Just sad
You're just pretending.

24/06 Hun

Hun my life is yours
And I'm sorry I hurt you
But I never did know
I never did it deliberately
And so you should forgive
Never give in to despair

23/06 Dear UK

My dear UK
I must say
I'm disappointed
You voted against
The common sense
And lost all
Chance of decency
It's a shame you did not think
Did not realise
This country will now sink
That is of course
Brave heroes thus
Save the British Isles
From idle mistakes
Because we're on the brink
Of idiocracy
Where the wise men fail
To reproduce
And choose
Instead to just go
With the flow
Listen to the fear
And not truly hear
The rhythms of reality

26/06 my dear

I would like to say
My dear
That I'm right by your side
Right here
Today we'll dance together
And then be gone
Snap our tether
To this world and this life
We'll forget all matters of strife
We'll be gone
And we'll dance
Far into a trance
And forget everything
Forget everything
We'll forget everything
That was

22/06 EU Ref

Fear the tomorrow
The day of unknown
Fear the tomorrow
When our world could be overthrown

21/06 Heartbeat

Put me up to your chest
And let me feel your heart boom boom away
The Japanese
They call it doki doki
The pretend scientists
Call it the lub dub
But I call it the thump
The beat of the earth
I call it the thump
The thrumming in your life
And I don't care
How funny I look
As I lean into your chest
Your breast
Cushion boobs
Because I'm just loving this beat
The doki doki
The lubby dubby
The thump and beat
Of the planet

20/06 Lol

Like a
Like the
Like the like
Like what in
Lol
If you've like
Yolo'ed
With the rofl
In the lol'age
Like the

Lone room
Dark room
Empty room
Nothing room
Void room
Silent room
Dull room
Sleep room

18/06 Good Health

To your good health
I find myself cheering
Raising a glass
To your good health
To my good health?
Nobody cares
For to your good health
That's what I'm cheering
Your good health
My leige, my king,
My boss, my president,
My superior
My head of office
My slightly senior,
My man in the slightly larger chsir

17/06 Give Up, Give In

Never give up
My friend
Never give up again
Because you'll see the end
My friend
And you'll be able to give in
No more

16/06 Kiwi

Such a silly little bird
Flightless and thought boring
Near blind, chirping loud
Rasping in the night
Drab and tiny, with crazy arms
Like a tyrannosaur
Going sniff sniff with
A sensitive beak and else
All just gorgeous
In the night,
Little omnivores, little nocturnals
Munch munch little raphite
Keep dancing your less than
Monogamous love

13/06

Forgot

15/06 name

Lots
Of people
Want my name
But I hate them
All the
Same

14/06 Street Talk

The problem was that these things
No
No no, I did
Didn't
Where are we going
Isn't that the place there
See if you want a dog like that
You should be able to handle it
Dogs pulling on him
Staffordshire
Shocking
Its not the dog
It's the owner behind the dog
Get me back

12/06 Void

Let me know
You're going to be here
All my life
Never
Let me go
And never let me be
Led astray
Oh my lover
Hold my hand and keep
Me from
Throwing myself into the void

11/06 Sleep

So broken
In this moment of
Absolute insanity
As I succumb to
The restful state
Of sleep

10/06 Having

Watching
Waiting
Holding on to something indefinable
Loving
Lusting
Desiring something undesirable
Laughing
Dancing
Twirling with someone delightful
Thinking
Conceiving
Keeping that thing believable

09/06 Hunger

Hunger for
Life
For burgers
For desire
For excitement
Hunger for
Ketchup
For victory
For adventure
For joy
Hunger for
Assassination
For kiwis
For kisses
For lust
Hunger for love
For breadcrumbs
For breakfast
For you

08/06 Losing Silence

Where are you my friend?
I've been seeking you hard
All these years
In the midst of a cathedral
I found you
At the point of no return
I found you
At the idea of death
I found you
Sneaking your way into my life
And wild times had we
Blindly going on adventures
That only the deaf will understand
The mute will rejoice in
That only the shadows can appreciate
We had good times
I had good times
But then you were gone
And no longer can I find you
For all that is
Is noise around me
And I can't find you again
Beyond this sound

07/06 Bloody

There's something fearful
Coming outside of me
As I'm crying red
Out from my underside
I'm ashamed of me
Ashamed of my femininity
As I soak these sheets
These clothes
These parts of my body
That I should never show
Just standing here
Not allowed to speak
Putting up your hand in the class
But no, not allowed to go
To use the toilet
Because obviously
You're just lazy
You can't honestly think
They'd let you go because
Of a singular time of the month
When the moon is high
Or when it is low
It's your responsibility
To hide it
Not to let it show
Its disgusting
Don't speak of it to me
Just have this time
Be blamed for your temper
Your sorrow and mood swings
For your time
Of never ending pain
And suffering
As your body rips itself out
Inside out
And restarts anew
To remind you it still works
Here, it says, you can still have a child
Have some pain with
To leave you bedridden
But at the same time
Shush
Your a wuss, disgusting
If you use it as excuse

06/06 midnight

Just into the midnight hour
When the crows come out to play
And the nightjars have their way
Cawing never in the day
Just into the midnight hour
And it's another dark night
It's possible that I just might
Have your heart in my sight
Just into the midnight hour
And I'm as tired as can be
I've been working can't you see
So hard, so long, this is me

05/06 Forgot

Forgetting
Is like wetting
The bed

04/06 Shake up

When I am awake
I find you
When you are awake
You find me
You come into my heart
And my head
And shake me up
When we're awake
We make love

03/06 Love to

Love to work
Love to play
Love to be
Love to have
Love to want
Love to desire
Love to see
Love to lust
Love to love

02/06 Interview

Sitting in a round of chairs
Hearing "would you fill out this form please?"
Thinking "you already have my fucking CV"
Hearing "oh it's double sided"
Thinking "do you think I'm an idiot and wouldn't check"
Hearing "here's a blue pen"
Thinking "I like black"
Hearing "would you like a glass of water?"
Thinking "yeah right it'll be a plastic cup"
Hearing "he'll be right with you"
Thinking "so that's another hour."
Hearing "right all of you come in"
Thinking "wait... no one said this was a group interview"
Hearing "tell me about yourself"
Thinking "I've filled it out for you. Twice"
Hearing "we're looking for engaging people"
Thinking "I need the toilet."

01/06 Half A Pound

Once upon I had a heart
Then once a time I lost it
There was a little mistake that was made
Then I broke my pelvis

31/05 Future

In the distance
Something stirring
Something dark
And unrelenting
It's your past my dear
My dear
It's your future my dear
My sweet

30/05 rain

Rain
Comes again
Every second
I spend with you

29/05 Weight

I see that your heart
It carries a secret weight
A weight of difficulty
Of sorrow
And my heart
It carries a silent weight
A weight of whispers
A weight of traitors

28/05 Summer

And suddenly it's summer
It's out and its bright
It's the weather for a picnic
And we're... we're outside
The trees are heavy with shadow
The buds are coming through
It's late May but it's finally here
It's true it's true
Its summer

27/05 My Hope

My dear child
I long for you to live in a world
That we're making with our hands
That we're going to leave behind
As the world turns and we fail
To do nothing
I hope my child
That in the future you'll not have to
See the ice shelf crash into
The vast southern ocean
That you'll still have the species
That we're hunting, hating, stealing
Into extinction
As we cut into their lands for
More wood, more territory, more urban
Arguing over who owns what
And who wants to make what
That you'll not see
People choking and dying
From the thick smog man made
From our sickly pollution
That fills up the sky and our lungs
And our lives, just sending us
Just that little bit more over the edge
Oh my dear child
I pray
That I'll see you live through the horror
The over examination, the stress, the tears
That your world will not be a dead one
But that you'll live many years
And see that through the clouds
There is a beam of hope
That you'll have a brighter future
Than you'll have
A planet

26/05 Should I Die

I have these
Things
In my head
Calling out to me
I have these
Voices
In my mind
Telling me to
Go and have it easy
Go jump here
Go eat there
Go take that pill
Then another
And another
And drown your sorrows
But then there's another voice
In the seat of my brain
Talking
Logically
Grammatically correct
Realistically
Saying that I have friends
I have love
I have those
Who would cry
Every time I did

25/05 Dear

You are not the hunter
You are the prey
There's a time
My dear
My dear dear one
There's a time my dear
That you need to recognise this

24/5 Bloody Mary

You think that
When you cry bloody Mary
And look into
The mirror
That it's she whose staring back
The demon staring back
The devil staring back
But it's you
It's your reflection being the demon
Your mind being the devil
It's you who are the behemoth
You you you
Coming to the the world
You you you

23/05 To Say

Who are you
To say it's easy
Who are you
To say
It's just a phase
Who are you
To know me
Even if you know me
You don't know me
Because you aren't me
You can't get in my head
You can't
Feel what I feel
Touch what I touch
See what I see
Because you don't
Have this mind
These fingers
These eyes
You dint have my heart
To race at every great
You're just
Stumbling
Trying to me
When I can only be me
Therefore just
Leave me be

22/05 Cant Even

Loving my life
Now thats a joke
I'm not even
I can't even
Don't even
Want to do this

21/05 Waiting for the Bus

Waiting for the bus
And you are by yourself
You run and just miss one
And then sit
Like a girl called Larry
On the metal bench
As the 60 doesn't come
Nor the 61
The 17 doesn't care really
About where you need to be
You're stranded
Waiting to get somewhere
And only you are there

19/05 Wasting Away

All that I am
Is here
Laid for you to see
Bare and open
Like the front of my chest
Has been cut with a knife
And my ribs cracked
Back
To see my lungs rise
And fall
And my heart beat-beating
So empty and clear
It is me
Lying here
Open for you to see
Blood and ashes
And sorrow and
Me
Wasting away
Oh yes
Wasting away

18/05 Lust

Hope is the great of all thank the naked maker who looks at you and holds you closer than a mother. There is life in the flesh and in the want and the desire for the natural hunger and wanted looks and desires for all the sex.

17/05 Cancer

You invisible killer
You find us
In the heart of darkness
At night
At the day
When we do not know
Creeping up
Unheard and unknown
Nervous we laugh
At the possibility
But then that's all one can do
At the invisible killer
With no invitation

15/05 Swearing Pain

Pain
Is not easy to deal with
Darling
It's a thing
Inside
And sometimes out
Oh yeah you
Might break a leg
And scream
You might
Have heart palpitations and
Bleed
But
Pain isnt like that baby
Its not as easy as that
Darling
Pain
Real pain
Is inside your head
And it's the type
You can't take painkillers for
Just mental tablets
That remind you
You're
Just
Fucking
Insane

16/05 Worry

Sometimes I
Worry
That
I'm not the person you thought I was
That
I'm not the lover you wanted me to be
That
I'm not the darling you know me as
That
I'm not the intended you wanted
That
I'm not the heart you desired
That
I'm not the focus of your life
Like I was
Like you were
To me to me
To me
Like you were
To me

14/05 Hug

Hug people
Everyday
Because
You deserve
A hug too

13/05 Crystal

Surrender
To me and I'll see
That your life gets better
From here on in
Surrender
Me and and you will be
Happy forever
And devoid of sin
Surrender
To me and you will be free
For I am the one who calls
Knocks thrice and then let's you fall
I am your consciousness
Your nightmare
Darker side and that's not all
I am your worst side of you
My dear
So surrender to me
And everything will be clear

12/05 Silly Hop

Little boop flops
With a wobble sniff
And floppy lop hears
And a bundle end fluff
You're a bouncy soft pet
A hug mammal
And you have doeful peep orbs
I heart you say much
My silly hop

11/05 Miraz

You have a son my lord
You have a son
The heavens have blessed us
You have a son
Let the banners be raised
Let the flag fly high
Let bells be chimed
Because the son is here

10/05 Salutation

My dear mister
My very sir
My held mistress
My lesbian Ms
My wanted Miss
My beloved doctor
My hallowed friar
My professional professor
My taken Mrs
Dear dear friend

09/05 English

Fantastically
Corrupt
Phonetically
Out
These are the
End times
When all
English fails
When punctuation
Stops
And a period
Holds the traffic no more
The Oxford comma
Is
Hung on the edge
Of a clause
Pauses
Are just breaths
Colons are just
Starts and ends
And you refuse to use
The capital letter
To begin
The start
Instead
You just write and not care and break
A sentence
Half way through
With your breath
Death
Of the punctuation
Of English
Is the death
Of communication
The dealer
Gives the death card
End of civilisation
All falls
Into the
Dark

08/05 underestimated

Don't hold me back
I never want to be
Underestimated
You see I'm short
I'm a woman
I'm a struggling vegan
So I'm weak
And I'm exploited
And I'm struggling slight
I have depression
So I'm crazy
Not right in the head
But I want to be notices
So I dance instead
But that doesn't mean
That I'm going to be
Happy all the time
Inside and out
It's just a visage, a face
And yes I appreciate true
What it's like to be
Underestimated

06/05 Where a Tie

Where a tie to celebrate
It makes you look
Much more ceremonial

05/05 Sun Set

Everything seems to fade at last
Let the final die be cast
Let the bells call out the end
Let the darkness come to descend
We will all go to dust
And heavens gates full of rust
No one will cheer when sports are won
They will instead fear
The always set sun

04/05 Not

Sometimes
Things
Are
Not
Good

07/05 Home

I was at home today
It was a bright and sunny day
The sun hung low in the sky
And the clouds were drifting by
But I was home to Dollar today
With my friends but it was my day
My world and my life and my time
In the air I breathed and that was fine

03/05 Fight Or Flight

To run
Is to flee
To stay
Is to fight
By my wings
I take flight
By my feet
I stay still
Don't move
Never move
Stay or go
There is a choice

02/05 Mouse

Little mouse
Harvest
Mouse
Twitching
Whiskers
Tiny twitches
Sniff the wheat
The barley
Grass
Hunker down
As the owl
Flies o'er

01/05 Immortality

And all I wanted was it
The secret to everlasting
The immortality of a
Rising phoenix
Coming from the ashes
All I wanted was it
But it slipped from my hand
Like grains of sunlight
Falling onto the beach
As you try to grasp them
Then they fall
Sprinkle like water into
The sandy shore
All I wanted was it
But the philosopher's stone
It rolled away down the hill
To join the other pebbles
To become one with the sea
As it lapped gently
Against the sand shore
The white and grey rocks smacking
Against  the sandy shore

39/04 Change

Change
Take me awake
I'll
Be yours
If you
Want me to be

29/04 Anonymous

She said the words
That gave a lie
And let them be
In the plain
They lay there
For one to take
To pick up
Hand with hand
But she left them
Anonymous
Lost and alone
The confession
Anonymous
The author unknown
Because the words
On the paper
Would have hurt
Many others
And her heart ached
As she wrote them
Trying to get them
Out of her head
Be gone thou demons
Be gone those thoughts
Bring back the
Peace of mind
And be not known
For all eternity
For all will not speak
Of the author of secret
Even though it be found
It will remain as found
Authored by none
Anonymous
Authored by no one

28/04 Confession

Confession
And the world spins easier
Confession
And the love grows stronger
Confession
And I feel I know you more
That we're knocking on the same door
That we're both the same amount of sore
But
We're both taken
But
We're both in love
But
We've got others
And the confession still happens
And the words still come out
And the lives we live
We keep living
Something is easier
Confession
And we're realising the life we could have had
But holding onto the one we have
In love but liking you
I'll give you this
Concession
You'll always be my friend

27/04 Your Paradise

When I hold my hand out to you
I'll be satisfied
When you take it whole heartedly
I'll love you all the more
When you say those words of purity
I'll let you be mine
And when we kiss for the first time
This will be your paradise
I tell you
It will be your paradise

26/04 puppies

I stole two puppies tonight
They're in my bed
Going to keep me up all night
They're gorgeous and fluffy
And I got them with permission
Yet obviously I stole them

25/04 Sleeping

I am
But sleeping
In this
My cocoon

24/03 Night

Good night mein liebling
My fair child
Good night my dear
And be well
Be well as you sleep
And well as you dream
Let not anything disturb you
Let all be sweet

23/04 Letting Me Live

Letting me live
Isn't right baby
Shouldn't be right baby
You should end me baby
Letting me breathe
Don't do it baby
Suffocate me baby
Until I'm blue
The truth is
I'm a murderer baby
I'm a killer baby
I'm a criminal
The dire truth is
I'm a sufferer baby
Of sickness baby
And I don't deserve to live

22/04 Battle

Hello
My friend
It's come to
The end
My life will be over
Soon
And it will be
Full moon
The wolves will howl
With the wind
And the night will come
As its bidden
We I will die in the
Grave
The people calling me
Brave
As I stood there against the
Wave
Of uncountable enemies

21/04 Lovers And Death

I want you to know
That
I cursed you when you cried
That
I didn't care when you died
That
I changed my mind when you sighed
I left you at the altar instead
And burned you inside of your bed
And stuck needles into your head
As you melted away my heart
As you stole rights to my art
As you kissed my secret lover
In the dark
And fucked her
And kissed her
Though we were to be wed
You took my true love instead
So I burned you in your bed
The altar empty once more
No more bogeyman at my door
My true love becoming a whore
To you
All to you
To you

20/04 Charisma

Let me not be dulled
By simple antics of an incompetent liar
Let me not succumb to his whims
To his optimistic sayings
And his enthusiastic charming ways
He is a man of many words
Yet I am a woman of intelligence
I realise the truth of his might
And I pray this fair night
That I and my brethren will not be persuaded
By his unwise charisma

19/04 Night

Good night
My sweet heart
My love heart
My dear
Good night
My dear one
My precious one
My love

18/04 Snow

Tiny white spots
Flecks of gentle attitude
Coming from the heavens
Broken pieces of clouds
Splintering off and
Floating like dreams
Making silent remarks
As they hover for moments
And descend to the ground
Making rest before
They melt into the warmth

17/04 Down

Welcome to the other side
Of emotions
Put out your hand and take
Mine
Dance in your head and curl
Up in bed
Because that's where you want to be
That's where you belong
You bounce and dance and people say
Oh
You can have depression
You're so happy all the time
Time to roll your eyes
Look
At them and tell them to go
Google

16/04 Breaking

Breaking point
I'm at
Breaking
Point

15/04 Ghost

When all the world
Seems to overwhelm you
You're a shadow
To all else
A ghost in existence
A mirage of hell
You exist yet not
Being of but not
Silent as death
And wanting to forget
Everything

14/04 Loving

Loving me
Shouldn't be easy
Isn't easy
Shouldn't be possible

13/04 Home

I am Scotland
I am the land that you were born in
I am your homeland
Your safeland
Your right land
I am the beauty that always was
That Burns sung about
That Scott romanticised about
That Muir moaned about
I am your country
Your city
Your home
The place you can dwell
And call your own

12/04 Reality

Lost
In a world you don't understand
It's called dreamland my friend
But it's not your dream
Anything
Is possible
That you can imagine
Except the figment of reality
She is queen and I am her courtier
We live here under
The stars
Life
Is good here except
Reality does not exist
Do not mention reality
Never mention reality
Do not know reality
Because reality will never come

11/04 Tiny

I've got tiny hands
And tiny feet
And with the right equipment
You can hear my
Tiny heartbeat

10/04 Wrote

I lost a poem today
It was written and beautiful
And it ran away
I don't remember what it was like
But I'm sure it was bold
About the human condition
Hearts that are cold
It had meaning and life
And absolute attitude
Full of lies and the
Lack of gratitude
I wrote this poem today
But it ran away
Got deleted as I strode

09/04 Heaven and Hell

When you have love
Things are heaven
When all you have is hate
Things are hell

08/04 Rich and Poor

Rich men
Do things
Do few things
To make
Poor men
Suffer slightly more
Then lie
To say
They'd make them
Suffer
Slightly less
So then the
Poor men
Vote for the
Rich man and so
No laws are broken
Apart from
The law of trust and honesty

07/04 Would have said

If I wanted you
I would have said
If I needed you
I would have said
If I desired your body
I round have said
I would have said
Would have said
Would have let you know

06/04 Moo

When the clock strikes midnight
It's alright
To call it a night
When a clock strikes noon
Its too soon
To call it a boon
When the clock strikes now
It's not surprising how
To a cow

05/04 Sing You A Song

I'll sing you a song
One day when I write it
And maybe I'll write a poem too
I'll get a job, I'll ride a bike
Meet someone and get married
Have the house, kids, dog
One day I'll do this all
But for now I'm going to turn my back
I'll ignore you and never
Adore you
Deal with my own issues
Because I can't deal with yours
You're a black mark
In my already black diary
And so I need to leave you
To never sing you that song
Because right now my voice is hoarse
And my poetry is poor
And I'm melting into the snow
Dying in the sunlight
Suffering
I'll never sing you that song
The lyrics just won't come
So we'll just sit here in silence after all.

04/04 let

Let me go
Let me love
Let me be
Just me

03/04 Wife

In six months
I will be here
As not a Williamson anymore
But something different
A different name
A different game
Not fiancée but wife

02/04 What did

What did you say
When the men took him away
What did you do
When they came out of the blue
What did you hold
When it became so very cold
When the door was battered in
When the walls were broken down
When the windows were shattered in
When the heart was torn from your chest
And he was taken away from you
Grabbed by the men of authority
The men in black
The men of death
The men of fear
What did you do?
What could you do
But cry

01/04 Trump and Bernie

Loving
Is that hard
Hating
Is always harder
Love those who need it
Hate only when you have to
Direst circumstances
Saddest moments
Love is always better

31/03 Tink

Who is that yonder
Over there?
It is but Tinkerbell
Of the golden hair
She seems but a light
But then you see
Her come close
Face, wings, feet
The size of a bee
She's a wonder and a beauty
Wrapped up in love
Bringing wonder down
From the sky above
From the trees and nature
From the sun so warm
Shining down on us
The faeries now swarm
They bring peace and harmony
The seasons four
The the next year comes
And they bring more

30/03 Voice

Yesterday
I was not yours
Today
My heart is stolen
This time
I got lost in your eyes
That time
I was not awoken
To the sound
Of your beautiful voice

29/03 Thralls

Cry "hell" to the west
Cry "fear" to the east
Cry "horror" to the south
And "cry" to the north
Let it all fall
In revenant applause
In tears and in sorrowful lust
As we die in the thralls
Of our sin

27/03 Power Prose

I am the person behind the one who sits at the head of the table and tells you what to do because they are the freedom maker and the enemy at the same time - but I? I am the writer with the pen and ink the one of real power and real consequence demanding the time and day and making the true decisions behind the one who sits and the ones who dance rejoicing him - what? I am the faceless one you never see because I am power itself and true power is never seen. 

28/03 Essay

I can't
Write
A fucking
Essay

26/03 Consent

Want to hold me?
Then hold me.
Want to love me?
Then love me.
Want to touch me?
Then touch me.
Just ask me if I want it first
Baby
Ask me if I want it.

25/03 Coffee

Early morning
And I'm awake
Give me coffee
For heaven's sake

24/03 My Child

Watch over my child tonight
Keep her warm in your arms
Kiss her gently on the forehead
And sing her sweet lullabys

23/03 What Do You Call?

What do you call a life
That has no life in it?
Never full of peace and
Not full of joy?
Always tense and never awake
Hiding in a bed
Seeking others to stay away
The black marks come
The dark things they say
About how you just
Are fading away
But you know that feelings
Just in general have gone
There is anger and sorrow
Everything seems wrong
All the people you had as friends
Hate you so
And the man you loved
Has disappeared to the wind
The grandfather you admired
Is with the dust and worms
And the person you always
Wanted to be
Has faded away
Leaving nothing but a dry husk
Who runs on weak breaths
On self made scars
And thoughts of death
The pills you take
Could be supplemented more
Added to exponentially
And then you'd go away
To the furthest shore
And all would be simple
All would be over
And that is it, that is done
And you'd be at peace forevermore

21/03 Hold

I never want to
Be out of your arms
I never want to
Be lost from you
Keep me from going astray
Cling on to me
Like I'm your last breath

20/03 Devil

Hello my friend, are you well?
My name is Lucy, I'm from hell.

22/03 Last Lesson

Last lesson of my career
Academia in my ear
The people let out a cheer
As they filter onto the streets

Tomorrow's seminar is none
All my learning is over, done
But the battle is not won
Strive more for the future

Aching for some release
Wanting to be at peace
But demands will never cease
To be the better, best

And I will climb further more
Still going until the next shore
I succumb to study like a whore
And become its erstwhile slave

Time storms by as a tempest
Hard work becomes the accepted
All to be expected
This is my life from now on

19/03 kill

Kill the joy inside your head
Hold the boy who wants you dead
Smile at the one who raped you instead
Slaughter those who send you to bed

18/03 Fleeting Life

This train will take me far away
Far beyond the realms of my city
We power past trees that are just a blur
The ridges and leaves and dogs
The white-walled houses and the walkers
They are nothing but blinks in time
Single moments of a visual of life
That will never happen again
That we will never see again
People that I will never see again
We go on and on through life
Striding down streets on the way
To  work, recreation, hope and future
Each person's face a new vision
That barely makes an impact on the retina
It is as current and rememberable
As a fly that you saw last Thursday
Instead they are just new strangers
Of your very own city that impacts you
Only when you want it to
Every person I have probably seen before
Because this is my city and I've been here
Again and again, going to and fro
But the epitome of it all is
They are just still strangers
Still fleeting glances in the window of time
And they will not stay in mind

17/03 Hello life

Hello life
I am here
To say
Hello to you

16/03 Bed

I will stay here
Until I must
Until the stars fall from heaven
And our bodies turn to dust
I will curl up
Under my many sheets
Under my blankets aplenty
And never another soul meet
For this is my home now
This is my nest
And it will be my only home
Until I do what is best
And come out
Out to see the world
But then if I did that
My white flag I would unfurl
To surrender to the air
To give in to life
Hold onto my heart
And be out there
In the world of strife

15/03 Silence

There is no signs coming from my phone
Just the silence of the ends of the earth
A death to call my own
That I created by pressing a single button and letting it fade to nothing
Like the quiet in my heart when I see my mirro  face
The tears that drip down my face
Without sound and without want
Just dropping to the ground in a mute world
As all of it turns grey
Or never had any color anyway
For it was always quiet here in my head
And so my phone is silent as I write and take my messages
My messages to no one but
My pretend friends

14/03 Meta 5

I'm walking
Not looking where I'm going
Typing out a poem
On my phone
I'm wondering far
To the very edge
Of my reality
And people stare
Wondering if I'm chatting
But no I say
I just have rhyme and lyrics in my head
That I need to get out right now

13/03 Love Poetry

Love poetry is like
A rhythm of two hearts
A sequence of two beats
A moment of bliss
Bordered by rhyme
Love poetry is like
A dance of two notes
A song without chords
A line of statement
That shatters the silent
Love poetry is like
The breaking of bonds
The release from stress
The awakening of the heart
That beats in my breast

12/03 Life Changes

You were always there
From the day I was born
Now I am here when you need me

11/03 So much

Going mad with fear
Because I
Love you so much
Going mad with anxiety
Because I
Love you so much
Going mad with desperation
Because I
Love you so much
So much so much
I love you so much

10/03 Just

Sometimes
Things are hard
Sometimes
They are easy
Sometimes
They are peaceful
Sometimes
They are dangerous
They can be harsh
They can be hellish
They can be wondrous
And like heaven
Great people make
Great things
Harsh people make
Harsh things
But what can be made good
Can be made by either
For as long as there is no perfection
There is just

09/03 Maleficent

Rise upon angels wings
Over the moors and more
Fill your lungs with fresh summer air
And let your heart soar
Your horns are your glory
Your magic is your aid
Defend your lands majestically
The place where beauty is made
I am the protector of this place
No human king can control me
Ye wooden tree guardians
Come and defend both land and sea

08/03 Some Day

Some day I'll fly away
And leave you to be
Back some day
Our love was fated
Our love was apparently
To be
But distance kept us apart
So that we could never be
Happy

07/03 Notes for Spring (incomplete)

Eyes open on a March morning
And it is like a new year
There are sounds of
Spring is here finally
Flowers are coming into bloom
The birds return from the south
Butterflies and younglings and
Its a
New dawn of a new world
Flowing in from a frigid past
Beyond anything anyone can remember
There was snow and grey
And blustery seas
The chill of winter over your skin
Goosebumps and risings
Of bare naked trees
Scratching the sky with crooked branches
But
Now there is life anew and aplenty
The world turns once more
On an axis that it was born with
And the sun shines brighter
And the days get longer
And life gets more joyful
As the notes of spring are played

06/03 Night 2

Hold me my friend
In this cold night
I miss your touch
Your embrace
As we cuddle
As we spoon
Listening to the
Silent rhythm of the night

05/03 Night

Night and light
And sleep and dusk
And a kiss and an embrace
And a sweet lullaby
Good night dear heart
And see me true
When you awake from your slumber

04/03 Dirty

Take me home and hold me
Close
I want to be near you
Every day of my life
As you look at me
Judgementally
As I get the call of nature
The hunger and pangs
Of natural
Sexual arousal you
Stare at me as I speak
Let my lips part, tongue loosen
And admit to all
I am a dirty minded bastard

03/01 - 04/01 Modern Demands

I am sitting here in a room
Eight others surrounding, conversing
Silence falls intermittantly
To let the sound of the song bird in
Through the neatly ajar window
Held up by a whiteboard wiper
That cleans away the marks of the past
The sins of the past, mistakes
That had been made an hour before
For other classes, other conversions
Other sounds of learning and outcome
Here I sit, blinking in the bright
The bright sunlight that will never let go
Piercing, holding, onto our sight and
Making this subject of academia
All the harder, all the more impossible
As the words come in, filling our ears

One cannot adhere to everything
Cling to every phoneme
That is uttered from pink lips
For it is near perverse to require
A being to listen for two straight hours
Then study five after that
And the next day work ten after that
More and on and further and farther
Demands growing as we age
The world becoming more difficult
As the age of retirement slips on
Sixty ... Sixty-five ... Seventy
By our age it will be eighty
They say, the researchers say
Those who hunker over wooden desks
Detailing our lives with beurocracy
There is politics, and there is ethics
And they will never go hand in hand
But just call for us to keep motivated
As more percentage of us slips further
Into mental instability

So comes the future
So comes the inevitable life
As we sit here in a white room
Sun peering in through the window
On a winter day, on the wake of spring
Blossoms aching to bloom but in no way
Reflecting ourselves as we are
Exhausted beyond reason

02/03 Meta 4

The thing about poetry is
It speaks words that nothing else
Could express
It jumps
around
Mani-
Pulating sentences and
Creates emotion
In a single line
Fine, it's okay my dear
Never fear
This poetry

01/03 Someone else

Someone with me inside my head
Someone speaking those words of dread
Someone beside me in my mind
Telling me, "oh never mind, never mind.
Just leave the dead body behind."

29/02 Leap year

This day is an odd day
Happy random birthday
To random leaping people
It's a Penzance party
A  raving pirate and a drunken
Woman proposing to the man
And a jug of beer and bitter
Laughter and joy
This time of the year
That comes only every
Quatro-annually
Quatre... Quartino?
Anyway
It's an odd day

28/02 Arran 2

Just take me back
To that time on the island
Where we ran across rocks and laughed
Take me back to that time
Where you learnt how to skim rocks
And you learnt to talk Scots
And you meant lots
Take me back
To those days
Where we became a group of many
When the sky was clear
And we walked for miles
And you got caught out to sea
Because you only wanted to watch seals
You were weird
So were you
And so was I

27/02 Arran Beach

The white sun rises in a white sky
Over the beach of broken rocks
White froth flotsams over the shore
And a gull cries out, forever more
The air is thick with salty scents
Seaweed catches under nose
It cracks underfoot as we stride
And rest on seals fur, scarring their hide
Life is life and love is love here
Things are simple yet complex so
They can hide and they can be seen
Shaping by footprints where they've been
Sandy beach and sandy rocks
We walk and we scramble and race until
We're breathless, we're laughing
We're children again.

26/02 Let there be

Let there be
Silence
That comes with the night
Let there be
Hunger
That comes with thirst
Let there be
Terror
That comes with dreams
Let there be
Horror
Which is more than it seems

25/02 Come

Little children
Come into my halls
Come under my wings
And bathe in my glory
Little children
From near and far
Come with your kin
Your siblings all
Little children
Gather all around
And I will tell you the story
Of paradise

24/02 Up

In the morn
Before the dawn
I'm awake

23/02 Spirits

Talking shit about the cold reading
Saying I'm a supernaturalist
I can read your mind and fate
All on this rocking world
And in tumbling paradise
You think you can bring people
To their knees with your daughters
And Johns and Janets and
Dogs in hallways
Changing a spirit channeller
To a curious sceptic
All bless the Derren Browns of our age

22/02 To you

To you
Who keeps me breathing every day

It's funny
The things to be said
I'd never really thought that
My heart
Started beating that first day we met
You're the cure
To my insanity
The remedy
To my depravity
I feel whole when you are near
And empty
Without you there
But it is funny to think
That
I never would have said
That you were the one that made me breathe
Start breathing
Keep breathing
From the day we first met

21/02 Live

Love live
Love endure
Love go on
Go on
Further
Forever more
More, or
Forever more

20/02 Chance

When you are holding on
To nothing
And let your chances
Slip on by
You are going beyond all the world
And being someone
Who sees the everything
In naught
There is a single chance
A single time
That you can grasp
But more often than not you do not see it
And it slips through your fingers
So watch out for that single chance
My friend
That single moment to thrive
And then be
Everlastingly happy or else
Drown your sorrows.

19/02 Ill

I'm barely holding on
To my own sanity
Add I struggle here
To breathe and be well
So ill
So sickly
Sweating in my nakedness

18/02 Mine

One way
My way
One way
Mine
There is no
Argument
Thou art
Mine

17/02 (14/02) Holding

Holding me
Shouldn't be that hard baby
Shouldn't be that difficult
Shouldn't be that awkward
Holding
Is just two arms baby
It's lifting up two arms
It's wrapping round two arms

16/02 Life and death

My life for yours
My body for yours
My soul for the old man's
My death for yours

14/02 Run

Run run run away
Never come back here again
Run run run to me
Then we'll be together and seem
Magical
Inseparable
Wonderful
Successful

13/02 Valentines

It's the day of love
That's very nice
I wish I had a date

15/02 Put this gun

Put this gun to my head and pull the trigger
Put this gun to my head and watch me shiver
As the cold dense exotic metal
Presses against my perspiring temple
And I feel all the feelings I dreamt years before
Come back to haunt me for ever more
And I ask you to give me the death I sought
Justice for all the pain that I wrought
When I travelled the world with sass and pride
I thought the only way was to leave them to decide
Decide whether to follow my way or be done
Force their backs to be breaking in the sun
And then I'd leave away and never care
How they'd escape, how their families despair
Because I was cruel and without hope
I was the demon others could not cope
And the hate came to me swift and true
I suffered the consecutive consequences right through
They burnt and hunted me like a beast
Proud to mount my horns and feast
Upon my flesh as  I was subject to scorn
All the way to the day I was born
I curse that day with all my heart
For it was the worst from the very start
It was a red day when blood ran thick
And people drank their sorrows and were sick
In their lovers' beds and on their sheets
Bleeding out for many weeks
You see
I was born on a cursed day
And there was never going to be a way
That I would be a man called good
A man of justice, a man who could
So now I look at you friend and plea
To end my life that is empty
I'm a soulless devil, beyond all love
A coward without the confidence of a dove
As she flies from ark over sea to shore
To bring back that single olive branch
There's not a chance
Of hope
Anymore

12/02 Doomsday clock

Let us seek the purpose
Of the midnight hour
When the clock strikes over
Let us see the minute come
Come closer to the north
Closer to the dozen
Two being insane,
Ten being safe
Let us watch our world
Sink into despair
As we turn the minute closer

11/02 Death deserved

You come to kill me
Me of many sins
You come to face me
And burn my in flames
But I am remorseful
I have much sorrow
I sit here waiting
For you to come
And I'm crying tears

10/02 Pray to thee

I pray to thee
Oh immortal being
That lives above
And watches
I pray to thee
Oh glorious one
Who sits on high
And keeps me whole
I pray to thee
Who never fades
And will never let go
Of me as I sigh
I pray to thee
Oh one magnificent
And I say to thee
I ask into thee
Where am I to go?

09/02 Heaven to hell

What did you say
When the bells rang that day
And nothing went your way
What did you say?

What did you do?
When we went forwards to
That place of your doom
What did you do?

Where did you go?
When we went down below
To the place of no snow
Where did you go?

You flew up too high
That you touched the sky
Gravity made you fly
Then you came down
With a crash
And a thud

08/02 Meta 3

Behind one day
Of my poem per day
And so I say
This is a poem
What makes a poem a poem
But the expression it brings
The joy it brings
The song it sings
The sound it rings
In your ear
Ringing clear

07/02 Bed

Living here
In my bed
It is pretty sweet
In here
In my bed

06/02 Meta 2

I'm writing a poem
One day late
And can't think
What to write

05/02 Me

Let me not be
What they make me
Let me be instead
What I want
Let me live the life
That I choose
And hold close
The dreams I have

04/02 Conscious

Figments of imagination swim across visions
They float and flitter like ghosts upon a faint wind
Though they are temperate they are there, as non existent as the grass, as air, as breathing
There is silence, but it is broken by mental screams
No verbal conditions apply for there is nothing but the mind here
Life is not life without the bizarre realities of dreams and dreamscape
As the wingbeats of my dying nightmares come to nothing I look at you
And everything fades to how it was
Retreating back into my - our - subconscious

03/02 Love is not love

Love is not love
It's a mess of emotions
It's not as simple as
l-o-v-e
It's not as simple as
l-u-s-t
It's not just love
It's not just it
It's a many
A conundrum
A continuum
A conference
It's a communication
Between two hearts
It's a
Stop
Never mind let me go what are you no
It's a
Go
Be mine I am yours I want you have this yes
Love is not love
It's not as simple as that
It's not a word
It's not a thing
That can be fathomed
It is
Immortal

02/02 Meta (1)

I'm tired
There's nothing you can
Do
About that
You want a poem
Well
Screw you
Go away

01/02 Hello hello

Hello
I am the one
You've been looking for
Hello
I am the woman
Knocking at your door
Hello
I am the ghost
Hiding under your bed
Hello
I am the killer
About to chop off your head

31/01 Embrace

It's like the sun warming your skin on a summer afternoon

Before I sat in my own parlour and I wonder what it would be like to embrace you
You said that we could become one together, yet you kept yourself 'pure for now' because of a vow
You said that we had to wait, that we had to be sure
Sure of our feelings despite the fact we stood at the altar and signed away our rights to individual life
I wondered what it was like, after all the rumours
I had to wait for you for the longest year
Ages seemed to pass and creatures were born, grew and died like the flowers in my vase, the petals falling off one by one
Like the tears falling from my face when I sat there in private
Wondering what it would be like to simply embrace you
But then
Then you were ready
And you held me
And it was heaven
It was like the sun warming your skin on a summer afternoon

30/01 Those

The sun shines through your window curtains
It lights on your face and I smile
As I sit up in this room, watching the fading evening light
I think of all the times we've spoken
All the few times we've met
And the ways tears have been shed
Those momentary hugs and the times when we had only three words for each other
Like father to son
Like mother to daughter
Like friend to dear friend
But this time
Lover to lover
"I
love you."

29/01 Change

It's pitch black outside
And I'm rocking uncontrollably
The quaking is not just from the rails
But in my heart, it's true
As time has passed
Things have changed
To the point where naught I know
Of when adventures start
And adventures end
And arrivals come to be born
Sitting in a chair
Drinking powder made of salt and sugar
Drowned in water, drowned in tears
I'm gasping as I try to learn
As times pass and things change
And the world is not the same as it was
Five minutes ago

28/01 Zombie Child

Come
Child
And feed
On my
Flesh

27/01 Age (Maturity)

Once there was me
And once there was you
And one day there was us
In a world numbered two
Then there was time
Then there was three
And we were just so
Purely consciously happy
It was four soon after
Five, then six, seven
We had a lifetime of joys
And it seemed like heaven
That was until they aged
And they matured and grew
They reached puberty, university
And from the home they flew
There were tears from us
Then shrugs and sighs
We talked together and
Philosophised the wise
For what had been two
Had been blessed, ensured
And became seven
In a way that endured
But now again we were us
We were just two
The children aged, left
Leaving just me and you
Me and you alone my dear
Until the darkness to one
It took you in my sleep my dear
And now I'm all alone

26/01 Wood to Wade

In the wood
There's a woman who could
And a man who would
At the shore
There is a man wanting more
And a woman not sure
By the road
There is a man who goads
And a woman who unloads
By the wade
There's a man who persuades
And a woman whose laid

25/01 Falling

Slipping
Into that darkness
I thought I'd avoid
Slipping deeper into the sorrow
That comes from the void
I'm falling
Down and darker
Getting lost as I go
I left my string behind
That which guided me
Safely home

24/01 Boom

Hold
Me close
And never let go
Let me
Listen
To the
Beat of your heart
Boom boom
Your heart
Boom boom
Your heart

23/01 Lili Elbe

Tears drip down my face
As I am related the story of her death
As she strived against all odds
To be who she was from the very start
As the wife-friend sat there crying
Holding her hand and trying
To help her husband become a girl
They were a couple beyond reasoning
A celebrity pair
That painted their dreams on dreams
On a canvas fair
And he only wanted
To be she who he always was
There was surgeries that she survived
That she strived through, that she
Became through -
And she painted the feelings
And she suffered the feelings
And she held onto those feelings
As she was he, was she
Became she
Who always was a she

22/01 Start Of Something Beautiful

Take my hand
And let us dance,
Leaping into the sky
With the clouds as our path
Take my hand
And I'll lead you
Through the rain
I'll help you to
Understand all this pain
Our feet will be light
And quick
And we will hold the world
In our palm
Our hearts will rejoice
I'll look into your eyes
You'll look into mine
And realise
Everything is just fine
Take my hand
Listen to the tune
And lift up your eyes to heaven
Knowing that this is
God-blessed

21/01 Nine hells

Nine times they tried
Nine times they failed
Nine times nine
They walked the road
But never escaped
The nine hells

20/01 Delphi

West do you say?
West, chasing the sun
Climbing up the mountains,
Horseless,
West it is we go.
Seeking the being wise,
Clever beyond comprehension.
West, you said, west,
To the temples fair and fine.
Let us go west to her,
In Delphi.
The Queen above all sages,
In an ivory throne she sits,
And waits,
Knowing for all the ages
That we are coming.
Over the mountains, horseless.
Over the seas sailless.
Westward we go,
Great people ho.
Chasing the sun in the sky.

19/01 Tiny

Tiny feet
And your dancing
Tiny feet
And your prancing
Tiny toes
With your tiny prose
Tiny poems
And tiny hearts

18/01 Gun

The only fun
Is the butt of my gun
Boom boom
Bang bang
I'll see you dead
Before you get
Inside my head

17/01 Anon

In forgotten times
The lack of peace
Blows out minds
Focuses hearts
Sets wars behind
The lack of trust
Is something back
Beyond behind us
For we live
In a time of thus

16/01 Snowball

So cold
So bold
I will go out
Into the snow
As it falls
Over all
Casting the world
In a blanket
I will go out
And I will shout
And shatter the peace
With my hands

15/01 What I Hate

I love
What I love
And I hate
What I hate
You could never change
What my mouth dislikes
What my hand finds disgusting
What my feet find uncomfortable
You could never change
What my mind finds intolerable
What my eyes find painful
What my emotions find terrifying
You can't change what I hate
Externally
Internally
Physically
Mentally
So why think then
That you could ever change
Who I am
