I Escaped, But Only Just - Part 15: Rebelling
I started Sixth Form College, studying music, sociology, drama, maths and English, along with piano and cello. By half term, my enthusiasm for study had waned as my new social life took priority, and I soon stopped the cello lessons.
At some point early on, I received my first invitation to a nightclub in the city centre, even though I was only sixteen. I went with a friend. First, we stopped at a city centre pub for a few beers. Then, we made our way to the nightclub.
At the nightclub, the bouncer stared at us. ‘How old are you lads?’
‘Er, eighteen,’ I...

The Angle of Incidence
The Angle of Incidence
An experience,
However
Temporarily
Escaping
The daily
Run
Of the mill
Routine,
May
Feel
Well
Worth it
If the angle
Of incidence
Covers
The gap
Between
The unnumbed
Reality
Of stark living
And that
Pounding
Sense
Of mindless
Security
That
Comes
In the wake
Of turning
Off
The accountability
For the life
Someone

Parenting Monopoly
Oh, bother.
I forgot to write a poem today.
I was busy rushing around my house -
up and down the stairs,
in and out of rooms -
on a seemingly endless cycle
of repetitive chores.
Days like this feel just like
an unproductive game of Monopoly.
Instead of properties to collect,
there were socks to match,
towels to fold
and uniforms to find.
Being pay day,
I could finally settle some accounts,
pay some bills,
and buy some essentials.
However, there is going to be...

ivy
I am here and
I am moss
And I am lost
And I'm at a loss again
Marbles flying down the staircase, becoming a dangerous environment to walk across
I'm at a loss and
The steps have overgrown with vines
"Whyd you stay if you hate your life?"
I knew if I left then-
I'd probably
die
I am moss
And I am lost
And I'm at a loss again
Marbles flying down the staircase, becoming a dangerous environment to walk across

Farts and Cheese
I asked my girl for a poetry cue;
she told me, “farts and cheese.”
I guess I’m lucky she didn’t say “poo,”
but seriously, kid?? Geez!
It’s not that hard to write about farts
in a house full of Crohn’s Disease,
but I’m not quite sure I have the smarts
to relate flatulence to cheese.
Shall I write about cheese that smells like a fart?
I’ve encountered some of these…
But it takes a different sort of art
to depict farts that smell like cheese.
I googled the words, just for fun
to assist with this uphill climb. ...

Doppelganger
May I comprehend doubt
The lies and thoughts that ran me a fray
I'd leave a piece of me to pave the way,
In time
Let them take my place
where I've begun to fade
...I'll watch them grow
while I smile in their display
I'll be their silhouette today
But when they begin to shine
I'll take my step behind them
And enjoy their shade.
Oh baby why don't you go out and play...
Take my wisdom
and change the world into a better place
Be better than I can
Be better than I am..
The struggles I've found ...

A Lover and the Lack Therof
I saw you out of the corner of my eye
I barely noticed you at first,
My god, you really look different around your friends
I could tell you hadn't seen me yet
Your smile was undeniably bright
(As per usual)
And your laugh sounded gregarious as ever
Always the center of attention
Easy to be cool when you're the only one old enough to buy alcohol here
I happen to linger a bit too long
And suddenly our eyes meet,
You a deer in headlights
My heart nearly exploded right out of my chest
Both of us clearly terrified of the...

the song contest
The song contests
I came across an apple tree it looked like
a child’s idea of this type of tree, big red
apples and a blue sky; when I realized I do not like
big red apples have farinaceous and taste
like they were dreaming of becoming potatoes
and not picked at by bird.
I joined my wife she was watching the final
Of a song contest, the finalist were two women.
One was buxom and belted out a song with full voice
the other one sang sweetly like opening the window
and letting a songbird and sunlight in.
The ample woman won,...

The Cosmic Hobo
The Cosmic Hobo
Beer fumes on the hobo heaven run
In our orphanage where grey is the color
For grown children of the night
When lightning cracks my veneer
With the truth that I will ride
That freight car to New Orleans
In all its cavernous graffiti
Until my whiskers populate the universe
That has come to be home
Beer fumes on the hobo heaven run
In our orphanage where grey is the color
For grown children of the night
When lightning cracks my veneer
With the truth that I will ride
That freight car to New Orleans
In all its cavernous graffiti
Until my whiskers populate the universe
That has come to be home

Lost Hermitage of Youth
Lost Hermitage of Youth
Township Baileys of melted donuts
Instead of Irish Coffee
Where we sanctify the sweetness of the air
With natural cooling for our crispness
Down the road to peak 10,443
Where the steeply forested valley
Rises with our footsteps
On our pathless ascent past log cabin ruins
Artist lady speaks homilies to Denver
Like a disciple of the western sky
My pondering meets hers
“But the culture is a fallen church,
On the riverbanks of love.” ...

Untold love
I suppose I'm a little drunk,
Because I'm pretty into you tonight
This bourboun built the courage in my wounded flesh
Wanting to touch you and kiss you under the moonlit night
Do you feel cold?
I feel numb
The distance between us
has made my lips parched
Perhaps you could speak up...
Please lend me a helping hand...
And wrap your arms around me with the warmth of your love
Because I'm pretty into you tonight
This bourboun built the courage in my wounded flesh
Wanting to touch you and kiss you under the moonlit night
Do you feel cold?
I feel numb
The distance between us
has made my lips parched
Perhaps you could speak up...
Please lend me a helping hand...
And wrap your arms around me with the warmth of your love
