You talk & talk
But I don't understand
Nothing at all

Nonsense is all I hear
Because you're crazy
And I don't
Know what's wrong

So go check
Your brain

Or clear your mind
Maybe sleep
Can help you

Just don't stay in the clouds
Forever

Gravity will get to you

Life inside,
Dreams,
A surprise.
I smile like the sun,
I rise for the prize.
I think of news,
I think of blues.
Rally around,
I hear the sound.
Of heart and memory,
Eleven seventy.
My mind is fresh,
Clean and pressed.
I suit up like Heath,
And breath hearth Keef.
The broad span, is deafening.
I wish truth,
Never aloof.
I sacrifice time,
Energy and live.
The pine needles climb,
Above my mind,
I want to arise.

A spring coiled tight.
Taut as a snake with fangs held tight shut.
Twisted nations, playing at war,
War,as never seen before.
Chess is a game of war.
Kings.
Queens.
Bishops.
Knights.
Everyday people.
The warmongers pawns.
Religion features with dem bishops,
Even religion and power feature in the game of chess.
Who has the power?
In the real world.
Darker and heavier.
Descending skies are falling in.
Another war none will win.
Out of man's control.
Dominance.
Destruction.
Magniloquent chess?

Tick- tock.
Cold bodies rock.
Defying warmth to enter in.
Dancing on  imaginary coals.
Trying to keep warm.
I'm homeless.
Sat on a pavement.
Being ignored, by the shoppers that dash.
All in a hurry.
No worries for them.
Lots for me.
Hiding beneath a Christmas tree.
A tree in the park actually.
Black dog passes.
He ***** his leg.
Probably as cold as me.
Reminds me,
I need a wee.
Where to go?
The question is.
Shops are shut.
It's Sunday.
Pub's open.
They won't let me in.
They say I stink!
Homeless lady straight from the rag bag.
They bar my way.
Gee whizz I'm busting.
If I can sneak onto the station platform.
I may *** for free!

The girl in the nightie had woke with a start.
Heard bells ringing.
Outside the window beside her bed.
An ornate sleigh.
A tubby chap astride.
Not a reindeer in sight.
Made her wonder what she saw.
The young girl, all ablaze with awe.
It was Christmas eve.
She thought mother deceived her.
When she told her Santa wasn't true.
Mother let her down, you see.
Told her fibs.
Never knew why.
Mother said he wasn't real.
She saw him with her shiny eyes.
Told  her mother that he wasn't lies.
She'd him with her very own eyes.
Presents piled around the tree.
Mother cuddled father tight.
She remembered what she saw that night.
Carried throughout the rest of her life.
Recounted the tale to her own children.
Who in turn told theirs.
Their faces glow with pure delight, year after year.
The Christmas scene will live eternally in purest hearts and honest minds.

Tired body
Melting dreams
Don't close your eyes
Not what it seems

For when you drift
Into that realm
You are not safe
be overwhelmed

Shadow steals
Creeps up your skin
Don't close your eyes
Where have you been

For when you rest
Naive and safe
Beware, beware
Of your new fate

A fire burns
Beneath your lids
Curse of sleep
The dead forbid
