she carries water
each day,
everyone
watches
as she
makes that
long walk
to
the river,
knowing
she goes
to bring
water back,
and yet,
each day
passes,
not one
would tell
her
there was
a well
in the
village.

When a boy, the world appears near
climbing over fences, no need to open a gate
Across our house, a grey building, a school
for those who wanted to be welders or
architects or some other trade.
The caretaker had many keys, we thought
he was the boss, wore a yellow coat
and walked with dignity
He shouted at us kids to show who
tough he was, but most of the time
he let us play in the schoolyard
in a ditch, a trapped cat. we lowered
a bucket down for the moggy to jump into
but it was not willing, the...

Don't Linger On
your ego swells in mirrors
deep within you bask in your pride
your self love are like shadows
a selfishness you cannot hide
your charm is like an after shave
all stuck in you on you and around
you look so gallant and brave
you smile with an air of elegance
you think everything is about you
the sad songs from the radio
the clouds of white on blue
the poem about love so true
sometimes you pass by
giving me that tiny smile
as if its a favour bestowed
a smile for one as I
I smile back, but its...

Blasphemy
religion is a lie
made up for political dominance
when you’re told something all your life
you tend to believe it
Christianity isn’t even an original story
a book of plagiarism
is it hard to believe that we're manipulated?
sold heaven for complete obedience
maybe when you can’t change the narrative
it’s better to accept it
just lie down, you’ll be fine
everyone’s just trying to kill you!
why must I pledge allegiance?
I understand fighting for freedom
but why can't I be proud of the whole world? ...

Society's Footnote
Self-absorbed fodder's ink-brushing hair
naked reflection dark shades of the mind
narcissistic weeds of a footnote in society
obsessed as a spider dressed in a veil
planting seeds to the dark's epiphany
in their sociopathic garden...
"Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary"

Oscar and I
Oscar and I
Today, I drove to Faro, In the Algarve
I wanted to eat a tunny steak at a café
I used to go fifteen years ago
The place had gone upmarket, as had
prices
The server remembered me, but not
my wife and took an instant dislike to
the man said he was effeminate
Oscar Wilde entered, or someone who
looked like him
He was of the expansive sort, told jokes
and recited poems, the other guests
and my wife liked him
I decided to become gay for the day
and after a few glasses of wine, stood

Dear Ear
Dear Ear, prey tell me what you have heard? Rumours abound on the winds
From blood pumping moody moans of ruinous weather, to the tale and tingle of tongues unfettered, unbound and gloriously strummed!
Dear Ear, please tell me why tears broil in my eyes, ready for the demons of a punishing broth to delight in the commence of their tumbling descents
Down
Dear Ear, please let me forget the pain
Dear Ear, perhaps you can explain as to where all my brilliance has gone?
Why the brilliance has left me?
Has it floundered...

No Truth Allowed
You asked for honest opinion
I gave it to you, then
Infuriated, based on insecurity
You told me I was cruel
Requests of true advice, from
the heart, yet you made
Requests that made
me
a villain.
The rat bastard of truth.

Ambrosial (featuring 3rdEYErising)
it seems to be a human pattern
judging others by their entrance
entranced....not my fault tho
if I walk into a room
& speak of my healing
I'm instantly assumed
to be all in my feelings
reeling in truth...kinda rude
if I make mention of darkness & my trials
now I'm morbid
& determined to wallow
swallow or spit...your choice
if I speak on our symbiosis with nature
I must be a tree hugging granola cruncher
for the record...
I'll hug any tree... ...

Dark's Deep Fryer
Haunting my soul with a list of memories in a seance
with will-o'-the-wisp of ghosts in the dark's deep
fryer of eternal damnation invading my mind's
portrait of forgotten illuminating my fate of
insanity's trauma clinging to my narcissistic shadow
thinking that I am important haunting my soul with a
list of memories lusting for an audience of one...if
only it's I

Intimacy of Chaos
Listening to the pendulum quell
in a deep state of oblivion
and the darkness still unveiled
clinging to the intimacy of chaos
like pistons of a fine-tuned clock
collecting dust in shades of analysis
waiting for the dark's dialysis
accepting the fate of my conclusion
awakening to the craven's hell
in a deep state of oblivion
and the darkness still unveiled
clinging to the intimacy of chaos
like pistons of a fine-tuned clock
collecting dust in shades of analysis
waiting for the dark's dialysis
accepting the fate of my conclusion
awakening to the craven's hell
