POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Simply You
SIMPLY YOU
I don’t let opinions confuse me
My mind is made up that’s for sure
Your religion and mine are so different
But we share what is honest and pure
Our skins are the same human tissue
They’re coloured like day follows night
But prejudice will not divide us
Together we’ll stand to the fight
No matter what parents have told us
Or what friends say should not be
The decisions are ours for the future
In the end it is just you and me
Our cultures are so very different
A million light years apart
But...

GIVE ME A PENCIL
GIVE ME A PENCIL
Let me sit down where it’s quiet
With only the sound of a stream
Show me a place full of flowers,
And I will create you a dream
Sail me across a blue ocean
With a breeze blowing soft on my face
Give me a pencil to write with
To tell you about a fine place
Lead me to where you are going
Let me take hold of your hand
Throw me a line when I need it
Don’t let me sink in the sand
Tell me, where I can find it
A meadow with grass lush and green
Give me a pencil to draw it
Where beauty and culture are seen...

To tell you about a fine place

Reality
REALITY
Strong as a horse and fast as lightening
Teeth don’t need any fancy whitening
Skin so smooth and hair so wild
Hormones changing inside this child
Lots of laughs through youthful years
A broken heart and lots of tears
Homework pressure induces frets
Join the gang smoke cigarettes
Never to be clown or fool
But now it’s time for leaving school
Studied hard and hit the grade
Now it’s time to learn a trade
Getting older and the body screams
Whatever happened to all those dreams
A girl would make a happy life...

YOUR BOTH BEAUTIFUL
YOUR BOTH BEAUTIFUL
You look so wonderful...
both of you...
just lying there...
Still..
your skin getting browned...
Although in these temperatures...
This ...extreme heat...
Grease does tend to
Ooze from your skin.
Your never still
for long...
Especially when
It get's hot...
I love to just sit..
Watch...
And laugh...
As you both roll..
First this way...
Then that way...
Eventually..
I decide...
Enough
Is enough
And join in...
Get both of you..
Rolling...
all over......

I REMEMBER
I REMEMBER
I remember when I was just a boy
...I still remember my very first toy
Playing with toys on the living room floor
...and having a meal then asking for more
I remember mums washing blown by the breeze
... when I fell and grazed both of my knees
All of that blood looked like total disaster
...but mum quickly fixed it by sticking a plaster
I remember my aunties and uncles too
...all of the neighbours and friends I once knew
I remember that bird and how well it could sing
...and stuffed in my pocket were...

THE CHALK LINE
THE CHALK LINE
I always took my piece of chalk
...wherever I would choose to walk
I often left an endless line
...and sometimes my initials sign
Arrows I would chalk on gates
...and enter both the times and dates
My messages they got replies
...in secret code like real spies
A different colour for every line
...that led us to our secret shrine
One day no chalk and all alone
...I used my mothers ‘donkey stone’
Yellow lines and secret words
...pictures too of snakes and birds
Kerbs, walls, gates and lids
...lamps and footpaths made...

Connection
Connection
My brain spins in frustration while my heart
...continues to beat out of tune with reality
...playing it's own tune
I don't wish to set your heart on fire
...only to find that life's weather has rained all over the heat.
My heart has been an ember
...left to smoulder for so long
...and then you
...you came along like a gentle breeze of oxygen and ignited my fire.
My emotions are all yours to share
...my love is yours to share
...everything is yours to share
... in material wealth I have nothing.
I have so much...

TEAR STAINED PAGES
TEAR STAINED PAGES
Each page is stained
with tears
that have escaped
Chased out by pain
and heartaches
From a distant past
I can see your heart
on the end
of each sentence
It beats with the flow
and expression
Of each stanza
Though the tear stain
Remains... always
It indicates
the deepest searches
From the soul
For new inks to scribe

DARK GLASSES
DARK GLASSES (inspired by the film - They Live!)
What is this ?
I think I see...
do you see it
written...
just like me
Who are they?
I see there faces...
People in those..
high class places
Are you looking?
Where I've been..
Noticed all...
that I have seen
Will you join me?
tell the masses
We really need to...
wear dark glasses

FIRE DOWN BELOW
FIRE DOWN BELOW
There's a small pilot light...
in my heart...
And, it could turn into...
an inferno in seconds
We could burn...
all night long.
Then...
just lie...
Smoldering!
wake up to clear the ashes....
and prepare ...
for the next alarm to go off
When there's
Fire down below

ANOTHER FALSE FLAG
ANOTHER FALSE FLAG
Pinstriped pricks in business attire
Part of the plan till they retire
Wealth and position they all brag
It's someone's fault...another false flag
People starving home and abroad
Ministers lead us down that road
Wealth and position they all brag
It's someone's fault...another false flag
Terrorist actions everywhere
Pinstriped pricks they just don't care
Wealth and position they all brag
It's someone's fault...another false flag
Folk gone missing here and there
UFO's and Alien's everywhere...

WORDS AND DOTS
WORDS AND DOTS
Where did you get that tune from...
I really want to know
How can you make a lovely song...
To sing in any show
Where did you get those lyrics from...
Ideas put into words
How do you mix those words with dots...
To harmonize with chords
