DOWN TO THE EARTH
Down to the earth like an open grave,
but with smiles on the face like a quokka,
Who can read the heart through the shining teeth, or see the mind from the glittering lips! If there are tears that ease the pains, let them flow out like the evil stream, And poems that can tell the mind, pour them out like an open tap!
He Passes through the same street again and again, missing just the same steps again and again.

He Passes through the same street again and again, missing just the same steps again and again.

The island
A land of green trees
Beautiful birds
Animals ran and played
All for only us two
Yet I still called the rain
At first she didn't mind
Then she started to beg it to stop
Yet I still called the rain
She found other places to go asked me to come with
Yet I still called the rain
Shes gone now
Now I on a dry bed of broken trees
No longer do the birds sing
No more animals to play
The monsoon washed it at all away
No more rain to call just dust and ash from the sky
Only im to blame
Beautiful birds
Animals ran and played
All for only us two
Yet I still called the rain
At first she didn't mind
Then she started to beg it to stop
Yet I still called the rain
She found other places to go asked me to come with
Yet I still called the rain
Shes gone now
Now I on a dry bed of broken trees
No longer do the birds sing
No more animals to play
The monsoon washed it at all away
No more rain to call just dust and ash from the sky
Only im to blame

The enemy
Anger and hate all consuming
It burned like fire
Torching everything it touched
Only growing never slowing
Until the only fire fighter left turned to ash
The inferno burned out leaving nothing not even the man where it started
I couldn't see I was the enemy
It burned like fire
Torching everything it touched
Only growing never slowing
Until the only fire fighter left turned to ash
The inferno burned out leaving nothing not even the man where it started
I couldn't see I was the enemy

Dying Potential
Youth shouts for answers
Unhugged elders waste knowledge
Breathless behind masks
Unhugged elders waste knowledge
Breathless behind masks

King of pain
All hail
The King of Pain
So disconnected
It's become lame
Friends words burn
Like acid fire
Billowing smoke
Just grows higher
Fortuitous find
Or an act of good will
Goes unnoticed
When you're looking for a kill
I'm an easy prey
Go ahead and take your shot
And if you get your mark
Just leave my body to rot
I've got nothing to offer
Better off dead
Save yourself
From this messed up head
Don't be waiting
For a twenty one gun salute
...

Mother Dear
I am walking towards a door I wish I didn't have to open
Dormant feelings are now being painfully awoken
And just why? For years no words were spoken
Death knocks and suddenly love is used as a token
To restart a busted machine that should remain broken
No hate in my heart as I don't care for that burden as I know its heavy
Engaging in give and take always leaves me with the damn unaffordable levy
I pay in heartache and disappointment and for now I am going steady
I find the grim reaper knocking just when I am not ready
I don't...

Cardboard Prince Charming
But after a single blink, the evilness in his soul shined through. … Tension filled the air, the warning deep in my heart. “ - Penelope Sky
Lingering in a cemetery of recollections
Pausing to examine each memory individually
Attempting to understand
How I could have been fooled
How I could have welcomed blindness
Mysteries left to solve
Questions to pursue
Wounds that refuse to be left alone to heal
A plethora of reasons and excuses preventing me from letting go
Tricked and charmed by the cardboard person I thought...

Predatory Affinities
Perhaps I haunted her as she haunted me.” - Daphne Du Maurier
Brutality caresses her skin
Enjoying the delicate softness
Breathing gently onto the nape of her slender neck
Allowing the wildflower scent in her beautiful hair to
Overwhelm evils sense of smell and
Invade its memory
Sensing her tense moments
Charged with fear and a dirtied arousal
Intoxicating and enchanting
The beast appreciating hunting her
Pursuing control and domination of her spirit …of what makes her who she is
Cancerous and hidden within...

SHE DON"T WANNA BE TOUCHED NO MORE
The struggle between want and need is constant
She needs to feel loved and adored but her shame is adamant
Reminds her she is blemished and in an instant
Her want for solitude takes over and she retracts and dwells in her cave alone and silent
Always blinded by tears she sits and she ponders
Why she submits to insecurities is beyond her
Failing the same tests and not learning
Maybe being dead inside was her true earning!
Her NEED longs for sweet kisses and caresses
But her WANT screams
SHE DON"T WANA BE TOUCHED NO MORE
She needs to feel loved and adored but her shame is adamant
Reminds her she is blemished and in an instant
Her want for solitude takes over and she retracts and dwells in her cave alone and silent
Always blinded by tears she sits and she ponders
Why she submits to insecurities is beyond her
Failing the same tests and not learning
Maybe being dead inside was her true earning!
Her NEED longs for sweet kisses and caresses
But her WANT screams
SHE DON"T WANA BE TOUCHED NO MORE

Regrets
Well regrets, I've had a few
But then again... Wait a minute
I've had more than a few
But the greatest has to be my time
And how I spent it
Spent most of kids childhood
Killing off my brain cells
Lost most of those precious memories
While I was lost in a living hell
First steps, first words,
First days of school
Lost because I was wasted
Acting like a fool
Now when I'm asked, remember when?
The answers usually no
And then there's the birthdays
When I was too "sick" to show
If I could...

Stupidity and Prejudices - Not an inspirational combination!
By Stanley Collymore
I've taught for decades
at every conceivably
academic, and also
extra-curricular level and have
literally within Britain come
across some right dopes in
my time, but never, never
experienced or heard of
anything as daft, as this
one! A British teacher,
and the school which
she works at, risibly
reporting 1st year
11 years old pupil
to the serious, UK
counter terrorist
avoidance body
for openly saying during a
class room...
