POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
makes no sense
hair of the dog and a laptop can be,
more dangerous than a crazed maniac
swinging around a huge hand cannon
in a packed out supermarket.
enter, boom
admiration, a deep respect for,
the young boy,knee high
trying so hard to throw rocks at the moon
maybe one day,he'll hit it
standard brick 230mm 110mm 75mm
used to be part of a dream home.
a beautiful humble terracotta
cottage on the skirts of the city.
now its became arms,a simply weapon
in the Birmingham riots.

my lads have been chosen carefully,
fours my lucky number.
apart from their individual talents,

also must have the right blood.

nice long deep sharp breath,its time.
we dont need to breach,but we will.
we need it,we must,our version of a fix.
as we cross the line of the smashed sliding doors,
our transformation has already begun.
not visual but somehow people can see it.
we are no longer loving sons and husbands,

Bangkok
sitting at the street bar
relaxing with a cold bottle.
taking long deep pulls at
apple flavoured coals.
amazed and overwhelmed by
this alien land.
busy bees buzzing,never sleeps.
can not afford to sleep.
the unforeseen light show,
breathtaking.
watching asian goddesses,
who should be worshipped.
walking around advertising,
their fruits.
floating six inches in the air.
covered in beautiful war paints.
begging for attention,
and the guts of your wallet.
laughing at the taunts of the
planets...

2014 my cannibalistic story
it had been two long dark years since the fire had hit.
2012
i think.
man i was so hungry,all out of resources,no good earth to grow.
felt as if somebody was repeatedly stabbing me in my stomach.
as if someone had filled me with broken glass,
and every step i took ripped my insides to shreds.
i began to look at the wife in a different sort of way.
even thou she looked anorexic,plenty of meat left on the old girl.
and dont forget plenty of marrow.tried to fight it,jesus, but the
hunger,the sickness,it won.

dream
standing at the waters edge.
atmospheric thick with gold dust.
watching.
glowing magenta smoke trapped inside
silver transparent bubbles.
making gentle rhythmic movement
in the breeze.
each one disappearing into the safety
of the bright white fog.
which blankets the most beautiful
green lagoon these eyes have ever witnessed.

off the medication again
i was rudely awoken the other morning,
by the feel of cold steel to my throat.
and small knees digging in my chest.
i opened my eyes to a vision of beauty.
my lady,mascara running down her beautiful face.
wearing an indian head dress.
I FOUND HER LOVE LETTERS YOU BASTARD as she
passes me a hand full unpaid electric bills.
then as she stormed off i do have a little chuckle
to myself,because she looks so cute
in my size twelve work boots.

Cube
Your stuck in a concrete room
much like a cube.
No windows, no doors.
you need to escape.
So you think fuck it.
Start to claw at the walls.
Snot blood tears.
Days a hole.
Months a tunnel.
You never give up,keep clawing
even start to gnaw.
Concrete rebar concrete rebar
You keep going,torn to shreds.
Teeth worn down.You no longer
own finger tips just sharpened bone.
Your eye sights getting shitty.
How long has it been?
You keep clawing,keep digging.
Keep dragging your body along....

The seed
You climbed inside my chest
and planted the seed of love
deep into my heart.
You watered it with sweet gentle kisses.
And now its grown,and branched so big.
Anyone would see it.
So when lifes candle comes to an end.
I do not fear now about offering my body
back to the soil.
I know even when we pass our souls
will dance together for eternity.

Time
Trust me you can walk fifty miles,
in a five ft by six ft room in just one night.
That beautiful view of a grey,
wet cloudy sky.Just over the five metre fence.
Two hundred and eighty eight nights,so far.
You would think one peaceful night,just one.
But no,thousands of voices,some near some far.
Screaming,Begging,Crying,Laughing,Praying.
All becomes a mumbled buzzing of noise.
You still got your comforts,one inch thick mat,
Bible,few pictures.
This can help you with a mental escape,
cause there aint no physical one.
