Just some bloke who likes poetry and writes poetry.
What shall we eat, My tiny man, With fingers white as bone. The black bird nest A badgers breast, The story fom a stone. Who will pluck my eyes from me, The wriggling tongue that gibbers, The earthen sod, The Ravens nod The moon out from the river. Bat speak violin, Toad speak drum, Fly childer, raise skin CreepWillows hum

You will not read what is not written You will never see my story You will not hear the words unsaid You will never hear my song But you will see me and you can touch me Unknown you shall know me

Together alone
I am becalmed adrift, lost at sea, with n'er a lighthouse to look for me. Alone upon the rising swells, which will not break their voice to tell. Endless horizons beckon me, yet no zephyrs fill my sail No tears are cried, no lovers sigh, all colours lost and pale No sun above, no moon no cloud, no star to guide me home. Below me only silent depths, above me mourning veil. I carry with me, broken hopes, no one will ever need And yearnings dreams and desperate prayers No god will ever heed. Islands which once held me safe are behind but always near and pain me now When turning and with clarity, remain unseen.
