POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Untitled life
And, on the pre dawn rumble time of losing
Tracks and dust heartbeats wrapped in shrouds
Unfound too proud, alone, with wise masters of design
Deny life insight like a wall, stoned and wet with dry eyes
Threatening powders, makeup pastels and many, many laces drawn together tightly till faces close
Whistling simple tones to slash solar rays
unbenign, giving flowers unfurling to unborn ants arrayed in crooked tables and concrete mulch
The clicking of black stallions until hissing smoke sours in exhalation
This land of broken shoulders swarm...

Opon a old gravestone
Where I lay, now rambling roses play
Up Cyprus boughs on summer days
Amongst autumn leaves and hedgehog trails
White winter snow laden or sudden hail
To spring flowers nodding in warmer winds
I lie here in deep silence among my kin
Year upon year I will wait for you
Till one day you'll lay in this garden too
Up Cyprus boughs on summer days
Amongst autumn leaves and hedgehog trails
White winter snow laden or sudden hail
To spring flowers nodding in warmer winds
I lie here in deep silence among my kin
Year upon year I will wait for you
Till one day you'll lay in this garden too

Go
.
.
We float
We walked on stars
Destiny in each others arms
Cozy stuff and peachy pies
Falling into each others eyes
Our talk was in body language
Smooth toffee lounging languid
Sipping coffee on vacations
Gifts of touching summer sunsets
Morning dew and bird duets
Children of light we danced
And rode rainbows
To rain cleansed shores
Each other shining gold adore
.
.
.
Then came days apart
Dark clouds
and black crow feathers fall
Misery and sadness all...

An experience
Days back numbered
Now a haze
Crazy days
Of sunshine and flowers
Grass heads unnumbered
Sudden showers
Heavy mists laden
Waking to faces
That formed in the branches
Silent black bug that
watched from the water
Clicking in the rafters
Time slips in the boulders
Not hearing voices shout louder
From the dead mans bush
Night time stars humming
To the extinct forest vibration
Ancestral bones in caves
rattle in frustration
Behind waterfalls
Albino insects decorate nests ...

Syllable
Never my intention
Crazy sad endeavour
And this sad rejection
Thinking strange dilemma
Misery dejection
From her soul magnetic
This my love obsession
Making me frenetic
All years my attention
Thoughtful thoughts assemble
For rose of perfection
Actions be especial
Into my possession
Her heart I affected
Like a sweet infection
Then we were connected
Decent to deception
Lies they had potential
But step to redemption
To count sins sequential
This be my confession...

Those lace up boots
Memory of doc martens
I had a black pair
Joe 90 had cherry
I first met him letting off firecrackers in his hand and he told me the secret to having balls was hidden in bohemian rhapsody
I could never work it out
Sometimes we swapped one boot for one
How people stared as we stomped around town with mismatched boots, dressed in black
Getting high on rum and coke
Also from the smoke
Motorbike madness
200 kph what a rush
Then you told me you liked to close your eyes at that moment
Like a slow...

Dragon
To catch a dragon
In times past
One must pass through viridian forests
Of vaulted beech, wide pillared halls of sentience whispering in high speech
No sentence understood, no understanding reached
Go quietly before something comes
Creep silently with sword sheathed
This knight abroad at night faring far into the east
If one makes it past
this peril then upon your quest
You must cross a vermillion desert to progress
Pass empty clay cities and stone God eyes that cannot look
Sands of time shifting...

The deed tree
From angles to tangled limbs
It speaks to me
Silhouetted and souless
Half buried rusted iron at its feet
By clay muddied waters
Pooling brown - gray
Sometimes it's pointing
Other times beckons the rain
Always with a ragged face
Deed tree, I understand
It happened
I'm sorry
It speaks to me
Silhouetted and souless
Half buried rusted iron at its feet
By clay muddied waters
Pooling brown - gray
Sometimes it's pointing
Other times beckons the rain
Always with a ragged face
Deed tree, I understand
It happened
I'm sorry

Poppy
Poppies grew profusely beside a path
I plodded purposely whilst
Pondering the passion price
That pained me to punish
Penny
poppy poison perverse power play
With pictures in my possession
Of her physique in prime position
For perverted pleasure I had
Plenty
Pigment powder of the poppy's petal
Pretty pompous in their paddock
Prudent with precise prediction
I didn't pop my pill prescription so
Now I perceive a perpetual prison
Penalty

Awakening
Offering of souls to the days old
Seeing scars writ on memories
Cigar lamentations drawn down cold
Smoke blown over red ripe berries
Paper thin silhouettes slowly dance
Shadow faces back lit with moonlight
Draped showers pulled back In a trance
Saluting lovers on nights lonely flight
God's are wrong to tread so carefully
Tied to an image frayed ragged edges
Hall's cobweb decoration walk wordlessly
Summoned to awaken infinity bridges
Arise o mentor of the earth
Take thou sip of eternal breath
Seeing scars writ on memories
Cigar lamentations drawn down cold
Smoke blown over red ripe berries
Paper thin silhouettes slowly dance
Shadow faces back lit with moonlight
Draped showers pulled back In a trance
Saluting lovers on nights lonely flight
God's are wrong to tread so carefully
Tied to an image frayed ragged edges
Hall's cobweb decoration walk wordlessly
Summoned to awaken infinity bridges
Arise o mentor of the earth
Take thou sip of eternal breath

Make a prayer (mantra)
Make a prayer
Make it clear
Make it to whoever you dare
Make it fair and clear
This selfish prayer
Make it enter heaven's ear
Make the universe hear
Sealed with a tear
Sincere prayer
Make it here
Say it there
Shout it everywhere
Every day
Every year
Make this prayer with droped tear, dare to
Make the universe's heavenly ear hear, to
Take this sincerely selfish uttered prayer be
Shouted without fear each syllable with care
Make it clear
You are here
Make a prayer
Make it clear
Make it to whoever you dare
Make it fair and clear
This selfish prayer
Make it enter heaven's ear
Make the universe hear
Sealed with a tear
Sincere prayer
Make it here
Say it there
Shout it everywhere
Every day
Every year
Make this prayer with droped tear, dare to
Make the universe's heavenly ear hear, to
Take this sincerely selfish uttered prayer be
Shouted without fear each syllable with care
Make it clear
You are here
Make a prayer
