Echoes of playtime
Walking around an empty hospital
Hearing voices, standing still
It's a strange feeling
Knowing there's no one on these grounds
Empty beds are blocking
As painful feelings are unlocking
Buried away in their homes
Scarred, anxious and alone
Yet the voices are protruding
Rebounding and allusive
Screams of fun and play come across
From another world now at a ...

Peripathetic
Planning away, sometimes all day
Words on a page, moulding like clay
Toward your interest, "I'll engage" you say
I should of known it would go this way
Travelled around all week through
Sometimes I'm spinning and I don't see you
Learnng the lines of a script I have written
Walking the mile but somewhere you're hidden
Delivering is easy when you've got the tools

My iPad is thirsty
Well travelled, rugged and dirty
In need of a clean

Stimulating and engaging
Its you they're i...

My eyes crush a matchstick hoard
Marks and scuffs on the walls
Remind me of times, restraints and all
Long days and nights settle in my thoughts
Old faces, names, and incidences haunt
Decisions made, young people blamed

Strike up
Savouring the solace
Subverting the scene
A spectre on the surf
Sublime and serene
Suffering the silence
Shaping the sun
Scuppering the smog
So sane with someone
Staffing submerged
Sheepish and surged
Scared as the scurried scatter
Splurged and so shattered
Shanked and superfluous
Serious and stained
So sad to see
Striking...
