Nothing more to say you lose yourself in the same cliche's . Not a single iota of a new course of action just the identical day but a different week.
You want to change yourself but to get it you have to break all the pieces of you that hold your hands cuffed behind your back .
That's almost waxing lyrical as if you were a master in tricks but it’s Houdini without the key and it’s wrapped in sad truths you’ve got yourself in a catch twenty two. It’s not a scene in a melodrama it’s your life .
Scene by scene and it’s going by way to fast like a...

The dragon
Behold i march through the masses like a dragon,
Im feared and hunted, the tools of men are made sharper to ensure my demise and the fall of a dragon
I yearn to befriend these humans yet they yearn for war with the dragon
When i breath fire, they think i thirst for war with their kind, the breath of a dragon, the breath of a human
Are they not most deadliest, they that kill their own kind for greed and other six deadly sins and less
When they now unite in a form of war against a common foe
When was i declared the foe
When i spread my wings and sored the sky...

The Job Interview
She sat in her chair fidgeting. She sized up the room and saw the men looking poised and confident. She wondered why she was there. She had done her research and knew that there had never been a woman hired for the position she was there to interview for. Thoughts of doubt flooded her mind. It was pointless. Its not that she wasn't qualified. Qualification was one thing that she wasn't lacking. Years of putting in her dues had paid off in that regard. This was a man's world. Although she had found her place, it was a place that those men were comfortable with. This was different. She was...

mom's badassery
4 of 30
she was born to a family who had no use for daughters
doting on 3 sons...little girl practically forgotten
shuffled off to live with relatives & boarding school
because her own parents didn't know what to do with her
...or maybe they just couldn't be bothered
I used to believe she was incredibly sheltered
so much in life seemed to shock her
turns out...that wasn't it...
she was reared to be seen...keep quiet & be pretty
most importantly...expected to marry
...within or above her supposed station ...

MY DEAR BLIND FRIEND
The sun is so immense
You can feel its greeting
As you look up to the warmth sense
That you feel on your face, so pretty...
The world is grateful for its presence
The sun also known as a star
Imagine it, as what shape or color?
The way it solely sits on the sky
It's amazing its existence, more during summer
Looking down on you to just say hi.
"That's right", just wave at it and smile like never.
Many shapes happening up there
Do you feel that breeze?
"Ah"... So heavenly, sniff its...

In real life I always focus on authentic situations; never delusional fiction!
By Stanley Collymore
It would be laughable really if
the concept wasn't quite so
absurdly, pathetic! Britain,
still, to all you undoubtedly delusional
Empire loyalists, very unquestionably
also Little Englanders, and obviously
rather demented Brexit morons, still
being regarded by you, as this great
international power broker, likewise
coupled with its simply, undoubted
and rather clearly amazing powers
to be obviously, a global influencer
too, none of which in actual reality
bears any natural...

Forever is Tomorrow
My life has changed so quickly
in such a Little time
trapped inside ideas
and a life
that wasn't mine.
As I sit to write this poem
a window breeze
creeps in
only then
do I feel
the cold from deep within..
This blanket
will not warm me
for the chill
is in my heart
It started on
that very day
When life
just fell apart..
Forever is tomorrow
but we're stuck
inside today
will we ever
get the...

The Majesty of Death!
By Stanley Collymore
Why fear something that’s clearly
irrefutably inevitable and equally
furthermore, is undoubtedly the
enlivening force and unquestionably also
the obviously clearly effective means of
the undoubted liberation as well as the
beginning, unless of course, obviously
and specifically, you're quite basically
and decidedly specifically alarmingly
petrified that your evident, individual
actions on Earth have actually been
such that now you’re literally, about
to depart this earthly life; really...

A Mystic Twilight At The Forest Edge
On some random rides on my bike, far into the open lands.
where man can find the man inside, where The atmosphere inspires
as you aspire the fresh air
In the deep dark valley of the dusky forest, where the wolf
finds his throat and howling poetry, where oak trees grow secured
in safe Elysium, rise shepherds echoing calls, herds at twilight
silently blissfully home coming, as if everything in nature takes its way inspired
from heaven, their flocks mingle with dark emerald green of the forest.
And as they draw near, the breath speaks...

If
If was door I would not think of not opening.
If I was a clock I would not attempt to stop the hands of time that runs its own course.
If I was a mirror I would not deny the power of reflection as one brushes their hair .
If I stood as a mountain I would never turn away an adventurer to climb to the top .
If I was a library full of books I wouldn’t let them fall into the wrong alphabetic order and line them up into the correct categories so they can be taken from shelves and read .
If I was a map I wouldn’t disguise the grid references I would hope you find your...

once I was young
The Real Meeting.
We sat in a circle, fourteen of us,
pointing knees at each other, drinking
coffee,
trying to look relaxed.
Sweaty palms discretely dried
on trousers leg
One of the six women in the group
spoke - women are better at
airing their feelings than men- she
went on, a great length, about a life
of endless cocktail parties around
a swimming pool, posh wine at
an expensive restaurant,
of which I knew
