Abracadabra Kazam! Went my wand Bright sparks fizzled Of magic I'm so fond! With a flick of my wrist i swat away all fear for with a plop on a mat I appear

On a mat i appear
The dark clouds writhe like serpents in the sky and belch down brimstone where unicorns asleep they lie In the distance Mordor's spear dominates on high demanding submission from whence dragons fly They search the jagged peaks For one ring to rule them all The fiery evil eye it beckons and Frodo heeds it's call

Mordor
I built my life on dreams; castles in the sky sat back, reposed And watched the world drift on by I wished upon it peace As I looked at it afar and from my cotton wool world, This dream wasn't far! I dreamed of it free, smiles on every face as the whipped cream parted and it drifted off in space

Pass me by
On a tight rope above the void A precarious porcelain sentry My sanity stands guard Refusing repressed rage entry Mold covered memories Reek from the corners where they hide Of summers in the sun Splashing in the tide Muttering in under tones Dementia’s pacing the floor. Beckoning chaos inside, Paranoia’s fidgeting at the door With one final **** The sentry takes a fall Slitting my wrists with the feather of despair Give way to darkness, give way to all

Porcelain sentry
Heavy handed Harold With quiet Quinton quarrelled Fighting for fine filly Slapped he said silent silly When wooed woman was aware Bout the beating he did bare She scorned the scolding suitor And courted Quinton, the cuter

Heavy handed Harold
Here we come a galloping Across the emerald plains Carefree and happy The wind tugging at our manes Just on a whim We chase a passing cloud Then watch the golden sunset Nickering out loud Then along came the white man A painted horse to claim He tried to break our nature He tried to make us tame But across those emerald plains our hearts will ever be Like the wind in our manes Strong, wild and free

As i lay asleep last night my mind wondered through the window and out of sight catching a ride on a passing crow it went places i’ll never go Gliding it passed over palms and rivers swooping under waterfalls left me with shivers rising on a warm sea breeze high it watched the golden sun set and with a sigh Returned begrudgingly to where bedridden i lay paralysed, a vegetable as they say

I wished upon a lonely star which shone so brightly in the night sky smiling down at me from afar just a twinkle in heavens eye I wished it was not just a ball of fiery gas and icy dust but understood my love, loneliness and all and wept a little if it must I wished upon a lonely star and funny enough here you are!

I wished upon a lonely star
Slowly the day is dowsed by night as the clumsy sun trips over the horizon and is gone from sight The swallows morph into their darker side and screeching fill the twilight skies in fear all creatures retreat and hide Silence falls heavy covered in soot none stir except for the owl’s mournful hoot

Dusk
Parched am I oh Lord and my soul cracked as the dry river bed crying for a summers rain Quench this thirst Father that my cup may run over filling the souls depths that the fruits of the Spirit may ever flourish on the banks thereof
