The crime of living life too intensely.
You said I was too intense
as if living
your life intensely
is a crime
Maybe it's because
I spend so long
living in the shadows
watching the world
through the crack
in the door
locked out of the house
of my self
tortured on the rack
of the gender
role of patriarchy's
masculinity
my self esteem
dissipated like a
cloud..yeah.. like a cloud of steam
Maybe the problem
is not me
who you blame
for being emotional
putting me on trial
for upsetting
the
'Way the World Should Be'
Maybe the...

How can I f**kin tell?!
I feel like
your a waste of
time
I wanna be your friend
but you don't
wanna be mine
I don't understand
what it's all about
it seemed you enjoyed
my company
now all of that
is in doubt
I don't get why you act so frosty
why your so emotionally cold
Maybe we need to turn the page
Maybe we need to forget about
this
whatever it is
maybe we need to
let the leaf fold
close the book
put out the candle
ring the bell
Maybe this is
your idea of closeness
you don't tell me
anything
How can I...

Today I thought of you.
Funny how
memories
work
I'm looking
forward
to the next year
and though
It was 3 months ago
I thought
of you
today.
Our romance was
born of spontaneity
sat and talked
never expected to hear back.
The first date
was
a charity gig
I felt free to
roam and chat
with people
I knew
and yet
I always returned
back to you.
You said
not to "be so british"
in asking permission
to put my arm around
but that's what I'm like

NO! I don't want to be your facebook friend
NO!
I don't want to be your facebook friend
when I know you liked
the anti-feminist comment
my supposed friend
posted only recently
NO!
I don't want to be your facebook friend
if all you'll do is
question me on every detail
of politics
that I post
this is WHO I AM!
If you can't fucking deal with it
in a responsible
and mature matter
then GET THE FUCK OUT!
NO!
I won't stay your facebook friend

Surveying the Edinburgh Left.
The derail the conversation conspiracy theorists- "SIGH"!!!! opportunist attention seeking needy Labour scumbags the Desperately seeking socialism Labour voting socialist appeal.If that's not bad enough.... Far-left ironic hipster 'communists' moaning about 'ultra-leftism' with mock sneer and laugh with Revolution to them as abstract circle jerk. Hypocrite shit or nippy drippy hippy Liberals interacting (because fighting as a metaphor is too aggressive) oppression with drum circles holding hands and singing songs haven't grown beyond Flowers in rifle barrels. the meek shall inherit...

The Rollercoaster of my emotions.
I'm up
I've had a good day
the sun's shining
everything's okay.
a small remark in passing
or hanging out and feeling
ignored
sees my mood lowered
my happiness destroyed
left feeling frustrated,isolated
and annoyed.
I feel like life should be ENJOYED!..
but I just want to withdraw,
retreat
in the struggle of life
the 'antagonista vita'
I feel heavily beat
suffering from a strong
sense of defeat.
The world feels too harsh
for someone like me,
who breathes in everyone's
vibes like I'm a fish
swimmin'...

'Reverse Racism'
Reverse Racism does not
exist!
White people
have not suffered
the deportation
and indentured slavery
of Africans
shipped to the Caribbean
or Americas
the fear of being killed
for the crime
of being black
the KKK
the biblical justifications
for their oppression.
it is not 'P.C.'
to remind you
that you have
privilege
as I do

To Recent loves.
(To Paulina)
That day I saw you
I knew something was wrong
by the lack
of smile
on your face
as we spoke
and even though
you were getting
on the bus
the way you
turned away
from me
told me
you were
doing more
than leaving
for the
bus.

I have
watched you
from afar
for so long
with amazement
and

'Anti-love' love poems.
1. Back into the
great adventure
of love, romance and
relationships
I go
on yet another journey
where I'll end up
I do not know.
2. There is too many
beautiful people
in the world
I find it hard to say
there is only one
I neither say it is
what I want
nor do I refuse
it
I live in the moment
see how it goes
always trial and error
the grand experiment
that is
life.

Rantings in F-Sharp
Composed by the Edinburgh All-Comers Writers Club in collaboration on Tuesday 5/11/14.
Rant,cant,rave and rant cant
then run and run and end up in a pant
the F in sharp stands for fucking
the X in sex is a stand in for sucking
there's no luck in poetry, he sucks
there's lots of muck in writing, it fucks
what's a poor boy supposed to do
whilst playing with his pooh
maybe imitate a foetus in the pouch of, a kangaroo
or play coitus interruptus with a boomeroo
