I have no voice
I am an echo
In the frequency
Of the soul
No need for ear
Or even breath
That breathe
The truth of old
Simple sound
Bounced around
As it fades
And reappears
Hear me not
In the physical
Repeat and leave
Me here

Another night in
Another night alone
Watching MAS*H 4077
Writing poems on my phone

I wonder which episode is next
off by heart I know every one
Sobriety trying it's best to convince
That I'm sitting here having fun

So if you're going out to a pub or a bar
Please raise a glass for me
I'll stay home and mime the words
Admire my tan from my glowing TV
Just for fun. Favourite show. No alcohol

Thoughts swallowed whole

As I breathe in my ever changing environment
The blend of sand and waves abort my pregnant mind

Circling my brain
The gulls hungrily await
As each thought drops
one by one
to the sand
Gobbled up
Swallowed hole

As the sun lazily begins
her journey under my soul
Bare feet search her warmth
She is missed until the morning

Thoughts left unheard
Now squeezed behind
Until a new day breaks
And the gulls are hungry
Once again
