My heart lives with you
There’s no other place I would go
I’m down with whatever you do
Wherever you traverse
Just know I will be right there

Wherever life takes us
I trust you will love me
The same as I love you
I wanna be by your side
I’ll ride with you undyingly

When times get rough
And you have lost your way
I’ll be around to uplift you
I’ll guide you back to a brighter day
There’s no safer place than in my embrace

jazz piece
 Feb 2022 Brett
Fionn
Like gold, its first notes emanating out of polished brass. Brass, that gleams and feels cold and smooth and haunted. Jazz! like an anxious sort of happiness, like something brief and sweet, there in one moment and gone in the next.

When the trumpets go silent, something still sits deep with you and grabs hold of you and won’t let go. Maybe it’s just in the background of the room, or your thoughts, but the sound seeps into you and blooms inside you and grows into something blue, brown, red. Something curved and  circular, lines bouncing off one another and intersecting and going their separate ways once again. Jazz, pounding with the urgency of a heartbeat, but not matching its steady beating. For some are early and bright, others take their gentle time and arrive in auric shades and dark shadows. A mournful note strays.

There’s a man on the sidewalk, wearing a gray cap. He listens, he pauses. For a moment his dark eyes are fixed on this sight, this sound. For one moment, his back straightens, his eyes closed. He drops a dollar into the upside down top hat. Then he nods his head wisely, sighs, and moves on.

People ask me frankly,
"Why live as an owl in the night?"
I answer
You can see things in the dark impossible to see in the light

"Why sleep your days away?"
When you're awake, life only has one perspective, but when you're dreaming, perspective is limitless

"And why not speak your truth to the world?"
There is more to learn in silence than there is in conversation

there are days
when even your own phone
doesn't recognise you

stranger face

it's when you find out
who your real friends are

the ones who make an effort
to talk to you

they all had a party at 10 downing street
boris and the mps decided they would meet
drinks and lots food that they all could share
lockdowns and the rules they really didnt care

people still infected while parties still went on
no respect for them or relatives past on
rules they were broken all the ones they made
parties they took over rules began to fade

all respect was lost parties carried on
rules that they made from there mind had gone
they were having fun while others had to grieve
for the goverment to do this is so hard to believe

Man made his brow
Furrowed like a garden row.
Indeed,

He held his own perfectly
Like eyes looking heavenward
In night skies

Searching for hope.
