            On certain days, it never

Ceased to drizzle,

The break in cloud, the days of

Sunshine more uncertain

Than his political convictions!

 

 

            The conversations always

Mocked him, for there would be

Days he would dress for winter and;

     The Sun would briefly show itself,

Taking each shame that you threw

Like balls to a skittle still,

He never went kilter, or keeled

Under pressure, he never ventured

When the revolver has just the one round,

When the paracetomol seeks a hundred to swallow,

And the scag is loaded to fade;

Liberation

 

Liberation





Everything controversial, wins upon it's ethics,

though nothing worth its effort is ever easy in its name,

Liberating lands of foe is more than politics,

it's a backward glance at darkest hours, where

regimes cripple civil rights.



Kabul under siege,

Human beings tied to coffins

fight amongst themselves to leave,

and kidnappings of futures

set concrete to its gr...

Empathy




…............(Don't ever think

When machines backfire,

That 'we,' have never loved you!

For machines trained at optimum

strength in life and death,

have a nucleus, a heart.



Taught the glory,

Purged in war,

Living deep inside the shadows -

Long, takes dissolving worlds,

So when we return,

A lesson learned,

Be prepared with love!).

Swan

When mine ears spring the

fine hairs I searched for in nether

regions as a boy,

When the gait is haunched and

double clowned and clothes

be further torn,

when murder becomes

the complacency you feared when

twenty four, and boredom

rocks the soil,



will you say;



in times when drugs are neither

here nor there, and alcohol,

no longer restrains the pain

Ode For Charlotte




She is made of silk,

Me – I'm just acrylic,

So why am I writing this silly rhyme,

Why am I sticking at it?



It's maybe coz she fobbed me off

She's after a seven or above,

Me I'm just a doggy five

Maybe a six with a lil push.



It's not the fact she's bonnie,

Has class and poise and style,

It's just that she really...

See all these palest visions,

Dark momentums, liberated free

from years oppressed expression

together as one voice,

Dawning of Aquarius,

In stadiums of light.

Proclaiming victory for

All one globe, a 'come together'

A Tree of Life




Sat beneath!

A bonus if a breeze stirs

On Summer days of hate,

For on this day, another

Migrants death begged tears

Upon my face.



Not all is well on Planet Earth

I muse, as hell pays in battle-towns

Where only red is shed, and

Then again, does anybody care

For a fellow citizen of world -

Incensed



I'm treasuring a silence,

Tears Upon a Damsel Stricken

 

Tears Upon a Damsel Stricken





They served in faith,

retired - slovenly of life

in pain,

Their exit beckoned to

a candle'd mass,

Forgiving fathers praying

For assailants knives -

And worlds discordant

By a harpies laugh,

Drive children mad,

The absence of their masculine

Strength.



A fable promised by

courts then shamed, a sad

and lonely directors cause;

The young boy walked away from the scene. A smile slowly growing upon his face. He reached into his pocket, and pulled out a mobile phone. It was the phone of Marie which he had grabbed while she wrestled with him. He couldn't understand what she was doing running after him with the mobile phone in her hand, but he was glad of the encounter for the device he now ...

The couple at 46 stood at the window, watching the unfolding events with some disdain.

“I will give you three to one she catches one of em.” Brian said whilst fondling his testicles through the hole in his pocket. His wife, Sandra looked on intently, whilst stood next to him with her arms folded across her breasts. “Naargh!” She replied. “She has no shoes on.”

Laid Bare

 

Laid Bare




I'm looking across the room,

Feeling very small indeed,

Blades rock a world of insults,

Positioned delicately to a bleed.



Open passion invites catastrophe,

A whine of desperate truths,

A possessed of all 'that' paradox,

From a heart without a sleeve.

The Puzzle

 

The Puzzle




The slot gouged in cold blue steel,

Squelches with easy extraction -

An oozing to view!

The spurt and the spatter a

Pattern of lust displays a red mist,

A droplet congealed in a militant sun

A human undone,

This, a second mistake,

An hour in a wake – a life in

a Puzzle and a bribe in haste.

As the nation sleeps

In these hours within the

Night i walk the Lonely

Streets lit by the Incandescence

Of the Modern Architects

The chill of the twenty-first

Century touching my

Brutalised soul, I see

For every light a

Dulled soul awaiting death,

Their innocense radiated,

Then extinguished.

First Aid for Kids

 

Their eyes engage me

Widen and enrage me!

“Call an ambulance somebody

Quick, before she ends here lifeless

Cold and dead.”

An RTA in a 4am shadow,

A marrow of blood for a

Congregational crowd

And loud I shout

And spill the beans,

‘Why not teach these beings

As kids,

How to treat a casualties

Bleed?’

I splay my mind at the lack

Of sense,

CHESS

 

- One small piece!

The sun rises,

Then sets and blessed are those

Who drift away, who centre

Souls and fall asleep.

Awake!

Money markets clatter

Importantly as if they matter,

A spatter of war shatters homes

And loathed I am to exist

In chains by this machine

Consultants click the keys,

Police investigate the “FREEZE”

And each way I look the pace

True Velocity

 

 

I am but a child

Adorned with trinkets,

Sand under nails

From floors stained with blood,

I am but a liar if

Claiming victory

When shock taken home

Loses all I adored.

 

I am but a fragile

No life reserved,

Here in two minds

Juggling innocense

Reversed,

I am but a coward when

Begging salute,

A fly by bullet,

From the rifle I shoot.

Shared hypocrisy

a slant of knives

a swathe of hidden

nothing gained for

the elitist but fated prose.

 

Talking stops

a scream so

close its silence deafens -

A warning sir if you will

A game play - the underworld taken
