Secrets - The Pub Evening
When he goes to the bar, I ring Mel. Her line's busy.
'Hey,' Gordon says when he comes back with the drinks. 'Get this down you.'
The din in the next room gets louder. Music blares from the jukebox. A group of girls in their early or mid-twenties stream into the room where we are sitting, with bottles of wine. They call out hello, then make their way back out to the main area of the pub, giggling among themselves. One of the girls turns round and blows a kiss at Gordon.
Gordon starts to say something, but I'm no longer listening, just...

Secrets - The Pub Evening (1)
After supper, I make the journey to Gordon's, reaching Burrington at around eight thirty. I park by an apartment block opposite the town's main car park, near the river. Gordon lives in a first floor studio flat, he told me yesterday on the phone. I press the buzzer.
'Hey, Al,' he says, grinning back at me when he appears in the ground floor lobby, more padded out than the last time we met. His hair's shorter and the blue t-shirt he has on shows off loads of muscle, more than before. His eyes are smiling too. I get the feeling he's dying to throw a punch at me just...

"getting poetic" (i hate the beach)
i hate the beach
but your smile is the sun that shines over my shoulders (it doesn't burn)
but your cold hands surf over mine like the tide (are you cold?)
but the bands in your braces are the jellies on the shore (you're brighter than every color you like)
but the teeth behind them are a shark's lost and found (you'd never bite)
i hate the sand, but when the shells score my feet you just put them in your pocket
i hate the sand, but you brush it off and take my hand
i hate the beach, but i love you

this darkness isn't big enough for two
I don't want to be alone with you
in the dark tonight
trading scars and spilling darkness
like cheap cask wine
because alcoholics
don't buy nice things
and our souls don't know
how to aim for top shelf self-destruction
We are discarded art
half drawn and torn in strange places
I tried to tape you back together
but you wrapped me up
in your co-dependence
and I was too lonely to cut you off
because like every drug
that's picked me up to let me fall
you got inside and gave me something

no strangers
each person
walking,
moving
on the
busy
sidewalk,
so many
happy
smiling
faces
in the
bright
morning
sun,
not looking
like
strangers
at all,
coming near,
passing
and then
more new
smiling
happy
faces not
looking like
strangers
at all.

Flickers
I feel flickers,
That come from the friction of your words.
And your truth
..They make noise
And i touch a ghost
..There are so much in this city!
And now i feel wondering
..Who did i meet?
Dejavu
…This is not the first time
..I’ve seen it before

Secrets - Freddy
The gym in Burrington draws me back and I go to see Gordon Day again. We arrange to get together for a drink at the weekend. Mel's far from happy when I tell her, especially as I promised her I wouldn't. Hoping to calm things, I take her and Robert out for dinner on Friday evening, sticking to soft drinks so she can enjoy a glass or two of wine with her pasta dish, but I can see she's concerned (and annoyed too) over my renewed contact with Gordon.
Saturday, we spend most of the day rambling near the hilly mill town of Hebden Bridge. The weather's warm and windy. Sunlight trickles...

My Guy, Mrd
A true lover of poetry
He’s experienced more than I can imagine
He knew Butkowski
He’s had a life I can only imagine
Not glamorous by any means
But he lived
He’s an excellent poet
And interesting as all get out
Sometimes mistakes make the man
We’ve had profound discussions
It’s been a while since he and I have talked
I miss him
My eighty year old friend
I’ll let his work speak for itself
Go to his pages
Read his work
Let your heart be touched like mine
By his brilliant mind
...

The hunters Moon
I walked out late at night.
The moon was shining so so bright.
I thought to myself .....Life !
There's no rhyme or reason to it all.
Just a lovely feeling & a lovely sight.
Just looking at a moon so big n bright.
Viewing natures awe and wonder.
A chance to Just stop and stare.
Cares of the world fade away.
When moments of bliss occurs.
To feel contented and at peace.
Later that day in a pub having a quiet pint.

Everyone tells me
not to believe in unicorns
but what can I say
I'm a fantasy girl

Because There Aren’t Enough Words (WillowsWhimsies)
Her light shines brighter than the sun
But she holds it close to her chest
Not wanting to outshine
Even though she does
She stands on the fringe of shadows
No need for over exposure
“I'll just be over here in my little corner
spillin' what I'm feelin'
and doin' what I do”
See what I mean?
She pours her soul
Her heart
Her experiences onto her pages
And yours
With equal measure
Thoughtful, supportive, patient and kind
She’s one of a kind
Her footprints seen ...

step inside my skin
Step inside my skin
run your fingers over
my loneliness
and turn it into something new
I'll pretend I'm not drowning in it
when the empty side of the bed
grows cold
We laugh so hard
we turn to puddles on the floor
and I breathe in every
gasping breath of you
between the happy tears
that remind me I'm human
that you're human
that we get to be human together
Step inside my skin
pretend you're the answer
to a question no one's asking
