"Absolute Rapture"
I don't know
Why you hate me?
What did I do
To hurt you so?
I'm a beautiful bird
Who just wanted
To fly high
But ran out of sky.
I seek freedom
Not capture
Lost in tides
Of absolute Rapture.
I'm sorry!
Why you hate me?

I'm a beautiful bird
Who just wanted
To fly high
But ran out of sky.
I seek freedom
Not capture
Lost in tides
Of absolute Rapture.
I'm sorry!

"A Spider Spun a Web"
Until today
I never watched
A spider spin
A Web.
I guess
I never
Had the time.
It's intercate strings
Run rings
Around the pioneers
Of yesterday.
It made me realise
What i took
For granted
And the stupid things
I said.
The beauty of nature
Vs the selfishness
And disgrace
Of the human race .
A spider
Lives on instinct
Until it made extinct
Crushed by a stampead
Of fantastic footwear
And scared mothers
Standing on...
I never watched
A spider spin
A Web.

Is that it?
Palms sweating
Heartbeat steady
Christmas morning
Had arrived,
As ususal
we were ready.
Mum and dad
Could not afford much,
They always did there best.
We would get spoiled
Even though we would protest.
Outside
The birds were singing
The kids were playing
Snow falls from the garden tree.
Where festive profits
Lay preying.
Inside
All was calm
A tsunami
Of wrapping paper
Rose into the air
And gently floated
To the floor
Completing it's journey
Inside...
Heartbeat steady
Christmas morning
Had arrived,
As ususal
we were ready.
Mum and dad
Could not afford much,
They always did there best.
We would get spoiled
Even though we would protest.
Outside
The birds were singing
The kids were playing
Snow falls from the garden tree.
Where festive profits
Lay preying.
Inside
All was calm
A tsunami
Of wrapping paper
Rose into the air
And gently floated
To the floor
Completing it's journey
Inside...

"A Good Thought"
Recently
I've been thinking
Off the future?
The mowed lawn.
The white picket fence.
The homemade cookies.
and your smiling face...
...It was a good thought.

3. Transition
What is happening?
This is a strange
Sensation .
Not quite pain
Transition
To another plane.
There is light
Pulsating.
The light
grows wilder.
They dance
They swirl.
And when
I dare to look
I am something new.
This is a strange
Sensation .
Not quite pain
Transition
To another plane.
There is light
Pulsating.
The light
grows wilder.
They dance
They swirl.
And when
I dare to look
I am something new.

2. Falling
Falling
Is part of life.
We fall in
We fall out
Fall in line
Fall in love.
We are always falling.
In the past few weeks
I have been content
To roam the world
But now I find myself
Drawn back.
Falling is natural.
It's scary
But just for a moment.
Is part of life.
We fall in
We fall out
Fall in line
Fall in love.
We are always falling.
In the past few weeks
I have been content
To roam the world
But now I find myself
Drawn back.
Falling is natural.
It's scary
But just for a moment.

1. Flying
Flying
It is the reason
For my very
Existence...
...and tonight
I revel in it.
With my birth
Came tremendence gifts
But with humanities
Fondest dreams
It's a gift I won't
Be sharing.
Flying is freedom
Living is existence
but my existence
Like my darker thoughts
Are for another day.
It is the reason

Existence...
...and tonight

Flying is freedom
Living is existence
but my existence
Like my darker thoughts
Are for another day.

"Only the Dumbest, will Survive"
Congratulations UK
Three cheers for stupidity
Hip hIp dismay!!
After suviving the peek
Let's all plan holidays,
Infect other countries,
You've been furlowed
So You can't afford these.
You've seen the looks
You've tasted the venom
They don't wear masks in shops
And yet they let,em.
Dont worry about
The NHS workers
And the care staff
You take for granted
We will continue
To provide the care
Your selfish lifestyle demanded,
Remember
not to wash your hands.
Feel free ...

"The Silent Faction's Daughter"
She stalk's the shadows,
Disguised by the
Beauty of the night.
"Hush my love
And il play you a spell"
She was once a girl
From the land
Of the rising tide,
Who longed to
Straddle the sky.
But was haunted
By the touch of another.
Who the girl loved
And the boy loved
in turn.
Until his former lover
Returned.
Then the girl became
A knowhere person.
Living in a
knowhere land.
"It's very unwise
To pretend I don't exist"
She quipped....
Disguised by the
Beauty of the night.

"The Bastard Son of John King"
I was always held back.
I couldn't hold my pen correctly.
I couldn't see without glasses.
Everyday at school
Was like a game of
Mortal Kombat.
I screamed in there faces.
"I'm the Bastard Son of John King
And your do well to remember that"
I was always picked last for football.
I was forced to wear braces.
I was clumsy and unsure.
I wasn't popular.
Like a ghost orchid
I was rare and obscure.
I was kind
And never beastly
I was sweet
But not weak,
not completly.

"Being Jared Leto"
He's a mystery
Of a enigma
Hidden in plain sight.
A hooded figure incognito.
Like a kinder supprise
Melting in the dessert sun
Except there's no suprise
Just Jared Leto.
A 21st centery messiah
With the sting of a mosquito,
Is that what it feels like
Being Jared leto?
Like being trapped
At a beach party
With some twat
With a guitar,
Except that twat
Is the front man
In 30 seconds to Mars.
With his shoulder length hair
And homeless beard
I know not where
Jared...
Of a enigma
Hidden in plain sight.
A hooded figure incognito.
Like a kinder supprise
Melting in the dessert sun
Except there's no suprise
Just Jared Leto.
A 21st centery messiah
With the sting of a mosquito,
Is that what it feels like
Being Jared leto?
Like being trapped
At a beach party
With some twat
With a guitar,
Except that twat
Is the front man
In 30 seconds to Mars.
With his shoulder length hair
And homeless beard
I know not where
Jared...

"It's the End of your Day as you know it"
Dust.
And the air
Is stained
With old cigarettes.
Pain.
Angish.
And the taste
Of dispair,
Scar the flesh
Like a razer blade
On a child's
Wrist.
Fire
Flames
And the smell of burning
Scars my lungs.
The past haunts me.
The future''s out of reach.
I try to gasp for air
Leaking words
From a folded
Hankachef.
Waiting to die
We are glowing embers in the red
Dancing the tango
With memories of the dead.
...
And the air
