POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am poet, no technical or grammar hugging here I write what the fuck I want how I want I appreciate all critique positive and negative.
The House of Commons
The right honorable member is spouting forth lies,
each word opens cuts as the truth slowly dies.
Each question evaded, each statement a farce,
his miserable bleating’s pour out of his arse.
His repetitive platitudes, disingenuous crap,
the space where the truth was,
Please mind the gap!
Opposition, objects and stands for the truth
The dishonest, hot air is melting the roof
They shout and they squeal like monkeys in cages
Their bullshit recorded on Hansard’s trite pages
The mother of Parliaments is a pissed single mum
The MPs all her kids, self...

Tick Tock
Stand back, I may explode,
I hear my inner ticking.
Ticking like a fucking clock
my tight wound spring is clicking.
I'm just about to be unleashed
unwound in millisecond
A force of flying, skin and bone
paradise, the prize I reckoned.
My sweating palms, my double vision,
my panic, doubt and fear
The laughter and the smiling kids,
my doubt, my secret tear.
My aching shoulders, bear the load
my cargo of deadly malice.
My belief, my faith, jihad released,
destroy the heathen's palace.
I'm...

Is the oil well?
Is the oil well?
Put up your hands!
The universal sign of surrender.
Part your buttocks and let the imperialists,
Shaft you into submission.
Democracy,
freedom of speech!
Heady ideals but none so pure,
as the pursuit of the black gold.
Crude, pun very much fucking intended,
Crude, yet sublime.
The pumping oil gives the money men
massive erections,
Guzzling down as much as they can drink,
Fuelling their penis extensions,
Fuelling their war crimes,
Wringing the planet dry,
To sate their hideous cravings.
Civilian loss,...

Channel Surfin
TV channels, surf is up,
swim out to meet the rising tide,
of celebrity revelations and reality dross.
Up onto your board and catch the wave as it swells,
with cheap docu soaps, gameshows and fly on the wall dramas.
Faster now the wave is sweeping you along, Jeremy Kyle and Jerry Springer,
bolemia, bastards, wife beaters, sex addicts, drug takers and sleazy stories of salacious sex.
The wave reaches full speed, you lose your balance and you're washed away by a tsunami of shit

Just a chore
Stacked on the runway,
no longer evoking sorrow and grief,
no longer a macabre, task.
Just a bloody chore.
No longer the respect and care,
no longer tact and sympathy.
Just a bloody chore.
Not sons and daughters,
not fathers and mothers.
Just a bloody back breaking chore.
Bloody body bags.
no longer evoking sorrow and grief,
no longer a macabre, task.
Just a bloody chore.
No longer the respect and care,
no longer tact and sympathy.

not fathers and mothers.
Just a bloody back breaking chore.

Legalise Drugs?
Roll up, roll up to the new drug store
now its all legal it’s not like before.
Heroin, crack,
no complication,
Cannabis, “E’s”,
no condemnation.
the cops in the drug squad have called it a day.
those nasty old laws have all gone away.
Indulge in your weed,
take all that you need,
a calming spliff,
when you’ve had too much speed.
Take uppers and downers,
sniff glue and snort Coke,
Those “Nanny State” laws, are now just a joke.
Hallucinations, paranoia, sweating and panic,
memory loss, spaced out, wide eyed and manic,
go...
