What do I have to offer
some pretty words and tired smile
I could even walk the distance
but it may take a while
could you be content with a promise
of future riches to become
would you dare accept less
knowing that you've already won
to the victor go the spoils
but ignorance is what truly rules
crowns of forgiveness are rarely worn
so shame and blame continue to be born
twins of the same desire
to live forever and never tire
history is destined to repeat
different lyrics same beat
you know the song they taught you well
now it's yours for you to tell
will they listen will they rot
they have no choice it's all they've got
so they scream obscenities
to anyone that believes
truth was sold they couldn't afford her
all their papers were not in order
what we have are echo chambers
no thinkers left no one to save her
she was forced out to die
so I have my truth and you have your lie.

I was in love once it's true
and I told it to you
but you had your doubts
said I threw the words out
so I would not loose
that also was true
You said you could never love again
that we were better off as friends
death was to be her partner
and I was just the gardener
tending to her flowers
in her dwindling hours
*life gives and it takes
our hearts love till they break*
Then out of the blue
told me you met someone new
said you were in love
so I kicked up a fuss
asked what about us
that was the last that we spoke
some words they still choke
*life gives and it takes
our hearts love then they break*
Yet I still toiled and I prayed
not that you stayed
but that you were healthy and happy
I was just glad that you met me
see I was in love once it's true
and that someone was you
*life gives and it takes
our hearts love and they break*
Now you have passed
but some things still last
as death is your partner
I will be your gardener
and tend to your grave
with these poems I have made
*for life gives and it takes
our hearts don't make mistakes*.

I can’t tell you how much I miss her
or I might begin to cry
it may just be the idea of her
and my memory is a lie
either way, there is a deep-rooted longing
the need for companionship and belonging
someone to share my love and passion
feel free to call me old fashioned
but I miss her whoever she was or could be
her that fulfilled all my needs
where have you gone the love of my life
I know the answer I know that you died
tell me how I fill that void
that hole where a heart once sat
now those feelings I try to avoid
now I only deal in facts
the fact is I talk to strangers
about everything but love
how can I tell them how much I crave her
about what really is and was
now I use my body to numb the pain
so many strangers
so many forgotten names
I can’t name her
or remember her voice
I can’t even say she loved me back
or that she really had a choice
so please please cut me some slack
if I step out of line
and if I look a little down
please ask again if I say I’m fine.

and true to form
the buzzards swarm
to pick at bones
no heart, no home
an empty carcass
nobody, could care less
out for revenge
a parasitic trend
to ruin a life
don't think twice
this is cancel culture
come watch the vultures
from your glass houses
throwing stones
they ***** they moan
no holds barred
this is what they are
birds they twitter
they gossip they natter
they think they matter
but in the grand scheme
they've become a meme
karen's are barren
no offspring to speak
together they seem mighty
but really they're weak

I have a brother who’s a vampire
yes you heard me right
that’s the truth I’m not a liar
he only comes out at night
and when he’s out he’s on the prowl
trying to find a bite
but he’s a vegan who be stealing
all my Vegemite
I tell him dude go get some food
your skin is pale *** white
but he insists it’ll be a risk
if he’s seen in daylight
I say bro I love you dearly but I don’t want you near me
I don’t want to be proven right
he said we are brothers by our mothers
it’s our job to fight
yes we are step and not by blood
and that’s what I like

if you must go
then make it quick
I would rather not know
or else fall sick
with worry and grief
for all that's lost
the sadness at least
will be worth the cost
if you must go, then go
I will understand
that seeds will sow
wherever they land
and though my pain
may never pass
I know the rain
will grow our grass

what a noble endeavour
to always appear measured
to never loose you cool
I've been through it all
the turbulent sea
the loss and apathy
yet I still remain
not quite the same
not quite insane
but getting there
wherever that may be
across the same sea
I was never a strong swimmer
not what you'd call a winner
but who needs medals
or other precious metals
they will only weigh you down
how heavy is the crown
I abdicate my throne
would rather be alone
you may not think of me as clever
but noble is my endeavour

Where the last ***** died we're not quite sure
but sailors reported one just off shore
floating in a bathtub of brine
the batteries died but it still works fine
manual labour equal rights
beating yourself up for delight
selfish pleasures hidden treasures
hand in hand in equal measure
some have suggested a museum
as their last resting place
so everybody can see them
where sailors don't give chase
stuffed and mounted how ironic
a virtual knickknackatory
how we merged with the bionic
each one telling its own story
A.I. at its lowest function
numbing pain through pleasures gain
I heard the newer models had suction
but all in all, it's just the same.

You know I've heard it often said
if a caterpillar dies before its wings have spread
before it's been able to leave the cocoon
if it died far too soon
then it's soul will go to heaven
because heaven is where all creatures get wings
where we no longer need our body or other things
where caterpillars become butterflies
where we all go when we finally die
so if you should sleep and never wake up
if your breath falters and heart finally stops
I will not shed a tear no I will not cry
because I know you've learned how to fly.

I witnessed a fly, die
before my very eyes
his legs upturned
so I said a few words...
*sometimes life gives you ****
and you gotta eat it*
then averted my eyes
as if to cry
but when I looked back
his body had vanished
somehow he managed
to avoid death
I guess the moral is none of us know how long we got left.
So when you’re lying on your back with your legs akimbo
enjoy the moment as it could be your last shout
or just another fly by the window.
