Not In My Name!
No, king Charlie number three,
Do not presume to speak for me,
I will not brook a genocide.
No, Hate-Monger General,
In Washington you spoke for hate,
Now slander you, those who wish peace
Upon all those whose hearts do break,
Who mourn the deaths of innocents.
That poppy pinned upon your left lapel?
It does not show you care, it’s all pretence;
You hands are red wit...

Us
I sang a song
upon that hill
wishing you would hear
but the trees and birds
were all that heard
for you were nowhere near
I raised a note
so full of hurt
up to the heavens high
and without you,
I laid my pain
upon that midnight sky
I cursed the stars,
forevermore
my words so black with hate
but they cursed back
and left me ...

Her Final Solution
You can’t afford to pay your heating bills?
Well, here’s some hate to keep you nice and warm.
Aim it at them, and them; they’ve caused your ills.
With love from me to you; a firestorm.

Let them Think...
Every day,
Travelling through Life,
We encounter Them,
Some, maybe true,
Yet many,
Disguised.
They have,
An ever changing mind,
Facing me,
They call me sweet,
Behind my back?
They say I'm rude,
They call me good,
Then say I'm bad,
They say you're the Best,
And then?
Nevermind.
Whatever they want,
Whoever they be,
Let them say,
W...

Mother (I Hate You)
There is probably
No one more
I hate
in this damned world,
Than the one
I was supposed to love
More than anyone
In this cursed world.

Not By Tony Benn
The Tories treat
our nurses with contempt
our doctors with disdain
our firefighters with derision
our ambulance workers with disrespect
our railway staff with scorn
our carers with despisal
our armed forces with antipathy
our sick with neglect
our elderly with indignity
our teachers with ridicule
our children with condescension
our pensioners with contempt

The Vagabond
she is the vagabond
who wanders with the winds
forever adrift
a prisoner to her sins
by dawn she appears
nextdoor, or nearby
she’ll pay you no mind
nor lift you an eye
now, offer her aid
let her stay for a while
she’ll throw you a laugh
or feign you a smile
but soon as you stop
and question her ways
her grin disappears
her eyes fill wi...

Distend
Fortune fails what love forgets
An entanglement of horror
Forgotten fools, defile the soul
Left foraging for sorrow
Permissive lives, destroyed by God
Perturbed, entrenched with puss
Presumed and cloaked in putrid lies
Distends a repulsive trust

Smitten (A Sonnet)
He was smitten with love for her;
by that arrow deep and sure.
A gooey warmth between them;
filling the heart all within.
But, love's shaft festered, stinking foul;
to gangrenous, aching howl.
Through steamy glass his love moaned;
as he stood outside alone.
Those barbs cannot be reversed;
holding fast in a soul feeling cursed.
Longing for the lost one gone,
to the breast of a differ...
