The Lonely Astronaut
James Birchall Nov 2017
Floating through space,
He thought about things.
He missed his wife,
He missed his kids.
He missed five-aside football in the park,
He missed air.

Athanasia
James Birchall Nov 2017
The pursuit of meaning,
A veiled reality lies bare.
Perpetual and draining,
Morbid and dark.
There's a light for some,
An eclipse for many.
Fear of death,
Fear of life.
Come the end,
Please come the end.

Man in the Woods
James Birchall Nov 2017
There was a man in the woods,
He showed me his *****.
I said "Good morning",
And kept on walking.

Saviour
James Birchall Nov 2017
Whoever desires to be saved,
Should above all hold to lies.
Scatter your faith and your trust for it matters not,
Murals in the chapels of our minds.

— The End —
