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
nothing; fiddled with a...

From Earth With Poesy
Nature, Earth and poetry
Glory to the tree, splendor of the mountain....
Energy of the wind and of the sea
Solid is the rock on the mountain's top
Fluent, the waters when they stream like poetry....
carrying all the human cares, sins and pains ashore...
Nature is worth the words shed on her land
full of warmth that breaths humanity and spirituality
Patience rhymes with obedience, with kindness....
Lore comes to you when you go outdoors, feel the flora,
probe the distant expansion of earth, not inside a mundane agora,
when they...

Zero consultation needed; as the Palace and its odiously racist acolytes don't own the word Sussex!
By Stanley Collymore
Harry and Meghan's titles, or
any lack of them will have
absolutely nothing at all
to do with their ability to gain publicity or
make money in the process, in the USA
or elsewhere. Seriously, do you idiots,
delusional racists, and very pathetic
losers really think that any rational
and intelligent person, essentially
cares if Harry and Meghan really
have titles which you vile feudal
serfs and plebeians are literally
so discernibly, obsessed with?
In the USA: a glaring example of...

Miscalculated emotions
Being so tight and hard to ease my heart
Forcing myself through fire and get Mickey burnt
I've being isolating in the dark coz the dark is me
Scared of death like it's real coz there's nothing to see
These thoughts be wildin' without mercy underneath
Trying to resist, they just won't let the insider breath
They be actin like a trigger that ignites the fckn powder
These little minions of mine give these emotions that power
Imagination hits so hard but i ain't the thinker
Pretending to be so cold but i am the feeler
Sometimes i see...

Mindlessness
The intrusion of my thoughts
have placed alerts on high
for my body wants to kill itself
as my mind begins to die..
My mental health Is failing
by the thoughts inside my head
The race is never ending
but worse when I'm in bed..
Paralyzed depression
has me rooted in this spot
Due to all the broken thoughts
that turn my mind to rot..
Lost inside the chaos
my bridge begins to break
but no one else can save me
From this heart I ache..
This black hole now resides

The Less I care..
I am fine, as long as i breathe, as long as i eat and meet good friends.
i am fine with the least i have, the little i care, the more i dare seek beneath
the mortal skin, and thus i do not have to rewind the horrors i might have recorded during daylight
In the night i am ever quite as the sleep comes in time, when the body gets tired,
so the mind as well, then sleep and cast the care inside a dark brain until dawn dawns again when i wake up at muezzin prayers calls, in such soft voice piercing the glooms, clearing any fateful doom i might have undergone... ...

Reflection
Reflection
As this chapter ends, we reflect on the year,
The challenges we faced, that filled us with fear,
The memories we made that made us smile,
The times that made living worth while,
We have encountered many challenges, but we got through,
We have stuck together, tough like glue,
We've made friends, but we lost some too,
I often wonder how we got through,
So much sadness, so much fear,
So much has happened in one small year,
The people we lost, aren't forever gone,
They are watching us and helping us stay strong,
They are...

Empty.
Empty chair surrounded by such panoramic
beauty but you don’t see it . The steps to it are
insurmountable as grief is insidiously cunning and infiltrates with reminders of what was and not right beside you .
It has a viper like grip and you dangling from its jaws . It’s relentless in memories and it can’t allow you time out just to recollect your thoughts or peruse your surroundings.
It’s familiar but it’s not you feel old and tired to your bones trying to realise that you haven’t stopped breathing . It feels like it when you are cast out into the new and...

(4) Losing it (08/08/2022 @ 5:19pm)
I abused my first substance at twelve years old;
Killing cancer sticks since I was thirteen years old.
Drinking to get fucked up since I was fourteen years old;
Stashing cash money since I was fifteen years old.
These days, I’m very aware of my surroundings.
Tunnel vision overrides me as my heart’s pounding;
She’s someone's daughter and it could be your lady.
This lifestyle cannot be lived by everyone, slim shady.
Don’t judge me for constantly getting drunk;
Three high percentage tall cans and a fat ol’ blunt.
Snorting cocaine...
Killing cancer sticks since I was thirteen years old.

Alles Gute zum Geburtstag Erika – 15. Dezember 2023!
Von Stanley Collymore
Echte Liebe kann manchmal
sei so überwältigend, dass
sehr bedauerlicherweise
klappt nicht, und so leider
ordnungsgemäß scheitert, wenn
auch nicht tatsächlich bewusstes
Handeln seitens des zwei Personen
direkt und persönlich beteiligt; als
das dauerhafte, dynamische, Kraft,
die es ursprünglich versprochen hat
und sehr zweifellos, wollte es sein
ist tatsächlich offensichtlich nicht
zustande gekommen. Ein Fehler,
der logisch und unbestreitbar
unbestreitbar ist...
