Indian Summer
Indian Summer
An Indian summer in October
A non uniform day in the dirge of dreariness
In you swept unannounced
A hurling hurricane
A sea of calm
A pocket of promises waiting to be unearthed
You found me in the dearth of my moldy life
You scalpel scraped the pallet clean
Sprouted taste buds where once before lay some withered woes
Alas, you’re an avocado!

Nero to Zero
I’m sat in Nero

A wispy voiced limp haired Lolita soundtracks this cliche
As overpriced
Over spiced
Panini, chai’s and muffin tops
Plonk and plop
On marble topped tables

Or who rides the wave
in a depndent haze
of the ones who script our days
when they ha...

A Poem Making no Attempt to be Good
Now I know what they sing about.
Love songs, break ups, heart aches, make ups.
Every inch now rings true
Now my blue heart is squeezed and strained through the pain
That I might not end up with you
My body in revulsion.
I want to fall, cry, throw up or I may choke
You've broken
my heart and I've broken it too
But I love you so much and I don't know what to do...
But write bad poetry, d...
