Face covered by a mask
you go to its house to ask
if it had spare something sweet
for you and you're friends to eat

To you this house feels different
this really should be significant
Just hope trespassing it forgives
as something evil this way lives

You had no invitation
and you are no blood relation
yet into its yard you enter
so in its mind you centre

Now you can hear it's breathing
it's too late to think of leaving
Just know your times defeated
your about to be Tricked not Treated

Music moves in you and me
a beat and tune so perfectly
renews your soul and resinates
emotion and feeling it creates

They lay over rhymes fluid in motion
and sing them loud with true devotion
They choose which feeling they emote
and put heart and soul in every note

To this no man or woman is immune
can catch your ear like a harpoon
To be received from those submitted
passion written then transmitted

Shame I can't tell you what I have seen
a witness to thousands of years I've been
if I'd had eyes I could of gazed
on century's gone that left me unfazed

species lived indeed evolved
there mystery of extinction now unsolved
for I have travelled since earth was made
through time like butter a hot blade

and now this time I share with you
we both are under a sky so blue
but your lot is short compared to mine
and I'll be here till the end of time

Around 4.6 billion years ago
all of our existence started to grow
Dust and gas started churning
and our sun slowly started burning

Speed it gathered as it turned
crushing in all the dust it burned
Melting metal in its concavity
spinning increased its gravity

The larger rocks around it floats
they're not making wakes like boats
Solar system orbits underpinning
as around it they all started spinning

Planets formed in similar ways
they all formed in years not days
A multibillion to say it accurately
formed by timing it immaculately

Now we all live on one of these
3rd planet out blue covered in seas
Lucky are we at least for now
until we mess this up somehow

Very scientific me
One man Oct 2017
You called me out so I came here to fight
Now I watch you turn to your left to your right
I didn't know we had come here to dance 
So I laugh out loud as I watch you prance

You raise your fists like you think I am a boxer
Didn't you know that I am more of a mobster 
You throw a punch I turn back with a grin
That means to me that it's time to begin 

A bee I am but butterfly nope I don't float
I am more of the style that I go for the throat 
I don't mind the pain it in fact makes me stronger 
So punch away it's your time you squander 

Punch after punch I stand waiting my turn 
Do you yet realise how harsh a lesson you'll learn
When I fight back you are in for a fright
Remember you were warned I've got one hell of a bite

Battle poem
One man Oct 2017
Some fear the dark and think it cold
to me its the warmth that makes me bold

You see my eyes see better because they are "broken"
a gift given to me birth right no token

So I walk with more speed and confidence than most
and slip through the shadows I move like a ghost

You may hear me come but wont see till I am there
I just pass you by with no thought and a stare

Exposed by the light for a moment at least
like a man starved of food given chance your eyes feast

Back into the darkness I fade from your sight
you let out a breath relieved of your fright

You wonder what it was thats just passed you by
but dont care to ask for fear you may die

The black clothed man that went passed like the wind
hiding in shadows like those who have sinned

He paid you no interest like a wolf who had fed
he just carried on as you walk home to bed

You wonder where he has been and what he has seen
as you lay your head down and hope it a dream

I walk on still fighting my fight
just enjoying how all looks in the lack of the light
