melancholy by the thames
he wonders how many
have thrown themselves in at this very spot where he idly
sits, skimming stones ..
have thrown themselves in at this very spot where he idly

Precipice Trilogy
life is dangerous
when death is calling
and you chase yourself
to answer
death is dangerous
a seductive void
when life is giving you
too much something
Indecision
is one foot in the grave
oops, don't trip
when death is calling
and you chase yourself
to answer
death is dangerous
a seductive void
when life is giving you
too much something
Indecision
is one foot in the grave
oops, don't trip

un[speak]able
dust
swirls,
their specks
reflectively float
glistening amidst
morning sunshine
just like that day
before
these hands
joint-ached
wrists and knees, too
signs of an inevitable
and supposedly
of fall
fastly approaching
(or was it rain?)
when certain aches
warn
with their predictions
steeped...

The Fine Line
There is a fine line between
making an attempt and thinking of it.
The divide will see you sleep eternally
or writhe countless hours in misery.
There is no solace in the silence
between the seconds ticking away.
Ears still ringing from the maelstrom
raging within your mind's abysmal chasm
Don't slight it.
There is hell to pay.
Expect it and prepare.
Wait for your heart to burn.
Pray for your sanity to stay.
What little hope remains
can yet be salvaged
if you can stomach
the reality of...
making an attempt and thinking of it.
The divide will see you sleep eternally
or writhe countless hours in misery.
There is no solace in the silence
between the seconds ticking away.
Ears still ringing from the maelstrom
raging within your mind's abysmal chasm
Don't slight it.
There is hell to pay.
Expect it and prepare.
Wait for your heart to burn.
Pray for your sanity to stay.
What little hope remains
can yet be salvaged
if you can stomach
the reality of...

The Steps (Suicide content Warning)
I stand at the bottom of the cliffs
A staircase winds up
Through the gorse and bracken
Its night, I'm alone, I can smell the sea.
Each step up brings me closer to the cliffs
Closer to the memorial benches
The rabbit nibbled grass
The rickety wood and wire fence
The sign warning of the drop
Up I climb
Rising closer to the top
When I am half way
I feel like turning back
I don't. I climb
I reach the top
Metres from the edge
The breeze from the sea is cooler up here
The orange lamps...
A staircase winds up
Through the gorse and bracken
Its night, I'm alone, I can smell the sea.
Each step up brings me closer to the cliffs
Closer to the memorial benches
The rabbit nibbled grass
The rickety wood and wire fence
The sign warning of the drop
Up I climb
Rising closer to the top
When I am half way
I feel like turning back
I don't. I climb
I reach the top
Metres from the edge
The breeze from the sea is cooler up here
