POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I have always loved words and would never use them as weapons.I have no great skill but that is of no consequence as long as readers find meaning or solace or guidance in my musings.

Everyone Has A Lover
I'm dazzled by her beauty
The stories she tells
The songs she sings
The things I learn from her at all times of the day and night
Regretfully , I use her and abuse her sometimes
Carelessly discarding her or leaving her at the mall
But
When my fingers wrap around her delicate frame I am beguiled by her tight little holes.
A frame so fragile that a sudden bump could damage her seriously
I know all the buttons she has for me to press and I press them often and instinctively
She comes alive when I look at her or sometimes just say hello ...
The stories she tells
The songs she sings
The things I learn from her at all times of the day and night
Regretfully , I use her and abuse her sometimes
Carelessly discarding her or leaving her at the mall
But
When my fingers wrap around her delicate frame I am beguiled by her tight little holes.
A frame so fragile that a sudden bump could damage her seriously
I know all the buttons she has for me to press and I press them often and instinctively
She comes alive when I look at her or sometimes just say hello ...

Hello
God
We're told you love us
but clearly not us all,and
for that reason and that reason alone
I find it hard to accept your existence.
It's just beyond my senses to
believe you would willingly sit by
watching people suffer
watching people die.
Tough love from a tough God.
If humans have humanity
what is it that you have
Godmanity?
Churches,cathedrals, politicians,
nasty humans spruiking your name
praying to you at night
dropping bombs in the morning
they seem to survive alright.
...

Just Tell Me
Tell me what you want so I can tell you what I need.
I'm neither magician or mind reader.
Speak now before your chance is lost.
You want it rougher....done.
What was that you said.....throating...done
You want me to what....cum on your face...done
And what is it you need Sir
I need you squinting,spraying your soul,relieving your pain.
I need you fucking like an animal.
Not a wife,not a mother,just an animal.
I want sweat,wet sheets and torn panties.
I want my hands,fingers and mouth in every...

Kids
Our ancient wooden coffee table has bite marks on every edge.I never saw the little buggers doing it, but they did.
The carpet, expensive all those years ago,is now worn and stained in many places.I never saw the little buggers doing it, but they did.
The walls and doors
have all got dings in them from someone.I never saw the little buggers doing it, but they did.
Now the home is empty and every piece of it tells a story.
I never saw the little buggers leave, but they did.

Volvos are cars.
Colour and shape
They taste and smell sweet
Vulvas are gorgeous
They taste and smell sweet
Vulvas are gorgeous

Use The Force Luke
Are you one?
Do you know one?
Have you been ruined by one?
If inflicting pain gives you pleasure are you
already one.
A Dark Empath
"Dark empaths are skilled at expressing empathy in a cognitive way rather than an emotional way, and the emotional distance they retain while operating equips them with a laser focus to achieve their ends through manipulation, gaslighting, or bullying"
Don't cede control to them....enjoy them by all means but see through their excellent disguise,their pretence, their egos.....their own...

Pussy
It would be easier to baptize a cat or catch a fart and paint it green
than
getting politicians to tell the truth
Just saying.

Last Laugh
When we walk
Death walks with us
We take a breath
Death takes one too
Deaths not a stalker
or some glib talker
just a lonely shadow
doing a thankless but necessary job.
I'll have the last laugh
and the last breath though
and death, might rage
he didn't get me on his terms, will move on
and find some more compliant poor soul.

Viper
I don't want to grow into my own skin
I want to slough
I want to farewell the old one
with gratitude and reverence.
A stirling job it's done, but
it's s time to shed
lke all the skins before you.
To stay the same is to perish.

Lexicon of Love
The word LOVE
Should be removed from all dictionaries.
It's the only word I know that's beyond definition.
No other words can describe it.
Don't even try.

Cease and Desist
Who are they talking to that nobody can see?
A friend
A colleague
A tradesman
A lover
A sibling
A ghost of a former self ?
What are they listening to that no-one can hear?
A podcast
A song
A book
A fading echo of their inner voice?
They move amongst us
the wired, the tired, the nearly expired
the zombie walkers
the mindless runners
those boom box bastards on their e bikes.
Put the noise away....I beg you.
Listen to the songs...
