Medusa
I met her in a cave on a Greek island
Where you go on an adventure and meet a monster
M-o-n-s-t-e-r, Monster
She slithered to me and asked me to dance
I asked her her name and she said, "Medusa med,med, med, Medusa"
Well, I'm not the world's most intellectual guy
But when she looked in my eye
She let out a sigh and cried
" you should be turned to stone"
I said "Luckily for me I left my spectacles at home"
Oh my Medusa, med, med, med, Medusa
Well, I am dumb so I can't understand
Why she slithered like a snake and hissed...
Where you go on an adventure and meet a monster
M-o-n-s-t-e-r, Monster
She slithered to me and asked me to dance
I asked her her name and she said, "Medusa med,med, med, Medusa"
Well, I'm not the world's most intellectual guy
But when she looked in my eye
She let out a sigh and cried
" you should be turned to stone"
I said "Luckily for me I left my spectacles at home"
Oh my Medusa, med, med, med, Medusa
Well, I am dumb so I can't understand
Why she slithered like a snake and hissed...

Eggs
You think your a Faberge egg...
You are a boiled egg
Beneath your shell you are yolkless
You are a boiled egg
Beneath your shell you are yolkless

Gargoyle
Gargoyle
On cathedral wall
In a pitiful state with a grotesque face
Carved from stone
You will never grow old
You will never leave home
You will never love or breed
Never laugh or cry
Never kill or die
We humans aim to be attractive, handsome and pretty
You are meant to be ugly
Why do you seem strangely beautiful to me?

Nowhere is safe!
A child begs for independence.
The mum refuses to allow it.
She is a notoriously stubborn woman at least that's what the divorce papers stated.
She cannot bare to lose control of her precious child, the miracle baby who was conceived as a result of IVF.
From a baby in arms, to nursery and preschool time had been moving too fast. It broke her heart that she could feel them drifting apart.
The daughter wanted to buy sweets that her mother refused to purchase fearing obesity, teeth cavities and hyperactivity.

The silent bridge stands witness!
The things we take for granted:
Skid marks on tarmac, learner driver startled by lycra blur causing them to break too hard.
A hundred shards of a
smashed wine glass from a woman with shattered dreams and a broken heart.
Chicken and chip boxes, naughty kids who skipped maths.
A bus shelter, broken seat and graffiti, urine puddles from intoxicated teens.
The shell of a bicycle attached to railing seat stolen, pedals stolen, tyres punctured and bell broken.
A tiny amount of sick in a phone box from a heroine addict...

Moses
Ring -o-ring of Moses
A pocket fall of stone tablets
Commandments! Commandments!
Pharaoh hunts you down
Ring -o-ring of Moses
A pocket fall of stone tablets
Egyptians ! Egyptians!
The red seas falling down

A pocket full of stone tablets
Safety! Safety!
The slave masters drowned

Off the grid!
You can't polish a turd but you can fertilise crops with it!
Quit your job, abandon your wife and kids!
The latest craze is to go live off the grid!
We own plots of rural land for you to submit a bid.
We can sell you a shed for you to live in!
We can even install it! Provide you with tools and a waste bucket!
You can survive without hot water, electricity and central heating!
You will look so cool with dirty hair, clothes and even catch your own food!
You can even write a crazed manifesto! ...

Fat kid!
A teacher once said "You are self harming with biscuits"
I was the fat kid and I was insulted. I took it literally and thought he meant that packets of biscuits hurt me like razors or an overdose of tablets.
I stated categorically a choclate digestive has never hurt me.
Unless dropped in a cup of tea and the hot liquid burned me
I couldn't cut myself or slit my wrists with a broken biscuit
I suppose you could choke on it but I chewed carefully so never did
Once I bit my lip by accident but I accepted full responsibility I cannot blame the biscuit ...

Anarchist brainstorming!
Anarchist brainstorming sessions at a secret location (five star hotel in London).
Conference leader "Before we stop for tea, cake and biscuits let's hear from Team one."
Team one member: "My name is Malcolm and I am an anarchist. Big up the Hendon on Thames branch, we fight the power every Wednesday at my brothers tapas bar."
Course leader: "You are out of control having tapas and planning to rock the world. It's what we fight for. Freedom Warrior please tell us about your teams brainstorm!"

Minor to miner looking for an angel
The dead man
Lived in a tent
He had no family
He had no friends
He died alone on his lonely strip of land
A smile on his face and scars on his hands.
Few knew the truth
He was just a weirdo, a joke and a folk tale
Seventy four years mining
He started as a minor
A child removed from school
Prospecting for Gold
He was a labourer for his dad
The Welshman who went to America to become better
He was a respected coal miner
He had learned in the tavern of a local legend of hidden gold in the mountains
