Scottish I am a beginner at poetry / Which is usually the best bit of everything.
I cut my hair To let go of you Who liked it long And in a mess Short and sweetness Falls to the earth And its in-between I'm at my best.

Inbetween
Physical movement Shifts the golden gears of thought And finds alignment in the chambers of my heart OR Movement Turns the wheels of thought Which help me find my feeling

Three-fold
As I struggle against the tide Of two eggs in the same pan Cosying up, embracing Destined to be as one I realise that it's just no use To maintain a division Between two born of the one same mother Be that Mother Hen or Mother Nature

If Kev is the sky With his head in the clouds And Sie is the water Always finding the level In stroke and in flight Ne’er twice the same brother Each a perfectly formed Reflection of the other

Elemental Brothers
I threw open the door to the sky And the ocean rushed in like oxygen to the flame The crescent moon cut like crystal glass Casting shards of starlight from a distant past Drawing pin-pricks of blood from my hands and my feet Sending rivers of rosé which got lost in the sea I heard distant laughter from an empty shore I cried tears of joy and then drowned in it all.

Writing poems is like doing jigsaw puzzles in reverse. The last piece is always the trickiest bit. So, to help with my poetry, I tried doing a jigsaw puzzle in reverse. And ended up with nothing.

Such perfect pools of poetry, these paddy fields. So much so that, When it comes to budding poets and rice, Bali must be up to its knees in them.

On Paddy Fields
There's something deeply satisfying In decimating a piece of runaway tissue With a healthy jet of **** I stand towering above it As it clings stealthily to the ceramics And       cackle                as                    I                      reduce                                  it                                     to                                         mush. It bleeds yellow. I feel no remorse. Perhaps that's why If the world were ruled by women There'd be less war.

If the world were ruled by women...
I was pulling up in the car park at the Immigration Removal Centre When I realised that I'd completely f 'ed up Having remembered: - portable recording studio - condensor microphones x 2 (one of them doesn't work, dunno which one, they look the same) - dynamic microphone (sometimes works) - XLR cables x 2 (in a tangled mess) - Jack cables x 2 (joining the party) - headphones - headphone splitter (a remedy for people who are always on their phone?!) - big-to-little adapters - kettle lead (so named because it dates back from when the kettle was king) - guitar - and two folders of important bits of paper (well, at least some of it might be important) I suddenly realised that I'd forgotten the only genuinely essential thing. My passport. You can't get in without your passport. That's the rule and the rules don't bend. Security is paramount. I find my colleague, Lucky, sitting in his car. Lucky: "Kev, you aren't gonna believe this but..." He didn't need to say anymore. I knew that he had done the same thing. Lucky and I were in the same *** of s***. But for some reason they made an exception. We were lucky. It must had rubbed off. (true story)
