POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Hi I am a lover of writing and i like to share my work, I hope you enjoy reading it .
The Hell f**k Ground (of misunderstood)
This persistance
we call existance
has to return to ring
to continuity
or sing
aloud
misunderstood throws out the shroud
and alas no connectivity
Is aloud
a fucking travesty
to the fuck awful
unlawful
cavity
inside and bound
by a lack of clarity
I think
to sink
down
to the hellfuck ground
my hands cover my crown
another
of all mothers
twat faced
and shit laced
yet again clowns
why not
is a word forgot
I tell you this
for I will not
take the...

The Esteem Train
Wipe away the mould
that covers the steps of gold
buy back the thoughts you sold
then learn all
that you've been told
Its time to carry out
the life you had on hold
its time to iron away
the rut of where you lay , jump up to unfold
Its now time to proove your wheels
are ready to be rolled .
Climb aboard
the esteem train
and sit as a lord
and be a bit vain
you've turned it around
now tell all the putters down
its your sound
and its coming to their town .
Now your travelling
on tracks of parallel
you can start...

Learning
All races and faces
cluster together
and endeavour
read and feed
the literiture
or the oiled picture .
Peruse
and choose
the paragraph
the photograph .
Extend a zealous clawing hand
grasp the simmering glimmer
that sprinkles the land .
Connections to natural
systems
of yearned wisdoms
in the opal tinted air
that floats expectantly
across the well disguised
emerald stair .
The diamond studded night
breathe in the raining insight
that descends around your minds
which are flying like kites .

For never (the witch)
For Never
Pointed hats
and broomsticks
well kept cats
and unseen tricks
a rounded flat
a recovered sick
a spell book for a bat
and a candle wick
a this and no that
a for them , and all theirs
who really cares
where the hell its at .
Magical stairs
and unlit flares
musical chairs are moving ,
no ones their
but cold is the air
the tunes play , a ghost DJ
who's that
dancing and grooving .
Its the shadows
of demons
you know those ,
who lied about...

Continuity
Your notions
turn into explosions
the skies
burst into flames
you know
there is no time
for time consuming games.
The doors have been slammed
in every direction
you have turned
you are walking across
malton lava
everywhere you step
your fatigued feet
get burned.
You may reach
your ornate door
behind there is another dimension
so very vast
you cant open it
because you are pushing
against saturns mass
one day you'll get through
not alive
as we will know
your dreams can cultivate
so when on...

I Cannot Breathe
To express yourself
without true feeling
is like a beauty
who's personality
is so unappealing
its like a bird
without a beak
that cannot sing
a mauve orange
with no peeling .
Its like theres the atlantic
between us
or a treble decker ,
impossible , square wheeled bus .
Its like me holding you so near
but I have no hands
its like a coward without fear
the sahara minus its sands .
How can we see
but not concieve
take away the oxygen
but still you breathe
have a greenery
without the leaves ...

Sattelite Vision
To fit a thousand years into one
you would evade the ill reputed bomb
To be sitting alone
in ultra violet rays
eating fine embellished pizza in glorious Rome
on sundays
To go to Sydney , Melbourne and Canberra
and visit the opera house
holding an avid camera
Then meet Mr Harris
jump on a tsetse fly
glide up into the sky
and visit Paris
visit New Delhi
Watch the Star of India dance within a flexable belly
The far East , Peking , Tokyo
strange temples , emperors and monkeys they feast
Encounter Oslo , Helsinki and Bern ,...

A Knight Templer
Imagine
the world
as it spins
in fast forward
thoughts to bring
and emotions run wayward
help me turn it to a blast
to a rewind
we'll burn to the past
into a new and old
our time
The starling in flight
takes me away
to a king arthurian
a sepulcheral knight
in an old historian
gone day
to an emporiium of dreams
for us to make way
or happen
no atlantic with equatorial seams
will now ever dampen
a magical and mystical
this is our all time
of life artistical light
that beams
a love to sight...

Silver Images
Just get a look at yourself
what do you see
when you sit
when you stare , well I see me
theres a reflection
is it yourself , are you a pair
it must be , but your the only one there .
Imaginary themes
opposite scenes
you can't step inside of
the reflection
or a collection
of your dreams
no matter how real it seems
Its just a mirror
depicting a picture
on a silver surface
that gleams .

Don't Kid Yourelf
A consortium of souls
gather and await your newcoming
as the snow falls
and liquifies through to the brain .
Wandering and plundering
of an era that no longer happens
smelling the acute summer air
remembering the things you loved and dared .
A new person awaiting a new self
looking back at the open bottle on a dusty shelf .
Once certain voices
decreed such choices .
You cant spend old money as tender in the present
the past has gone
even though it may have been pleasant
torn clothes you'll don
a shadow is all you'll represent ....

Something And Someone
Addictive are emotions
they lead to unlimited commotions
and result in life destroying demotions
ambitions of promotions
to idyllic locations
that lead to quixotic vacations
and business trips to far away train stations .
Then it does'nt transpire
you've landed yourself deep in the quagmire
your brain is frying behind your eyes ,
that are on fire
the flames
that lick away your aims
fuel up higher .
You've got the virus
right behind your iris .
You went for the big emotional aim
only to fall off the train
it was all in...

Five Year Old Eyes
Take me back
to my five year old eyes
that peered through bay windows
at sunshine bricks of all yellow's
beneath infant school skies .
Remembering old friends
and bombed valley's
crescent bends
and marble ralley's .
Train stations
bin lorry vibrations
sash windows , from where I'd watch in patience .
Haunted vestibules
ghostly stairs
imaginary ghouls
sparking off nightmares .
Saturday mornings
mischieviously dawning
with all kinds of crazy people
in the street calling
kids on tricycles , short falling
revving...
