TWO MODELS

TWO MODELS

"Game recognises game"

 

Popular saying

Used in some 

Black people's 

Conversations

 

Normally blurted out

When someone sees

Their best qualities

In another.

 

Example given:

 

Back in the 1950s,

A Florida 

Cheesecake model

Didn't want to 

Limit herself to being

Before flashing cameras.

So she switched positio...

Patrolling the street

On the Brooklyn beat

Jerry Tibbs.

 

The married N.Y.P.D. officer

On some days would shed 

His dark blue uniform & wore

The sable one he was

Born with.

Just a man enjoying his spare time,

His busy hands worked a camera.

 

On Coney Island's 

White sandy beach,

The Dreadnought Suffragette

Norah Smyth was brought up in Great Barrow, the small Cheshire village where I live. Her father was a wealthy corn merchant originally from Ireland & their home, Barrowmore Hall, destroyed by a stray German bomb in WW2 was one of the county's finest Victorian country houses.  She was an activist for social change and a close friend of (and chauffeur to) the Pankhursts, using most of her £30,000 in...

Rolling Curtains

The rolling of the curtains,
Shimmering silvery black,
In an instant woke me up,
Stretched the curves in one, two, three.

A backbone bent unbroken,
A detour along the way,
A chosen path of loving,
Walking slowly in four, five, six.

Then the curtains rolled again,
My last piece of hope awaits,
Body laid and tied on the bed,
Pushed and pulled in seven, eight, nine.

Patiently watchi...

Erotic

I'm often asked what is my style as I do so many arts from music, songs, record producing, photography, art and especially book and script writing.
Although my style can vary one thing that shines through in most of my work apart from the non fiction book Music Business Bastards is my erotic vibe.(which does spill over into my personal life as well)
This is very evident in my current releases 'V...

Are Lyrics Poetry?

Whether this is a controversial view I don't know. But over the years many have called the likes of Bob Dylan, John Lennon and even Paul Weller Poets because of the content of their song lyrics. I personally do find many of the latter two songs inspiring and poetry like 'That's Entertainment' by Paul Weller and 'Imagine' by John Lennon are two good examples.

I once had a manager who managed tho...

Rich Pictures

 

catching wasps in cobwebs

brutal lines and angles

graffiti strewn puddles

homeless persons

hopeless gaze

 

shimmer on a wheelchair

in an old abandoned hospital

where cries ring out at night

In the empty cells

 

demons in the trees

caught in click

spiral monsters

under piers

foaming lap

of northern tides

 

fractured bulbs

Momento Mori

“Chin

down

slightly,

head towards finger, keep going, keep going, there – stop.

Eyes to me.” 

 

Sequestered devotion to bemused muse.

She stares back digressive, dictated expression.

Seeing now not the man, but the Brady stand.
