Monotony is a process on repeat
You can change it
But why break this easy cycle
Its nice
You like it
If it's not broke
This is the easy life!
A record on loop
These minutes turn into tracks
You know you've got your back
But sometimes a light shines into another world
Dare I take that step into indifference
Or sail my good ship noble
On forgiven waters where all is stable...

At what point do we lose our shimmer
The glow, the laughs,
the getting to know you glimmer
Those lights on full beam,
onto an energy saving dimmer
We plod on with thoughts,
When one may become that sinner
Bright lights, colours that catch the eye
We never thought that one day we may say goodbye
Those colours fade from pink into a charcoal
When we know we've lost it all,
out fades that precious sparkle

I drink tea, like its going out of fashion
Nothing dietary,
must keep up my hydration
Two thousand litres a day
Or a UTI is the price we pay
Even our parents laughed,
as it's something they never taught you
You'll be fine with milk and Capri-Sun,
As they sat back supping their home brew
Now we keep on trend,
Not to be talk of the town
Ten thousand steps at best
Just to achieve that invisible, personal crown
Have we become so boring,
In achieving life's extremities
As being told by a man we've never met,
these are now life's necessities?

There's many a good tune that can be played on an old piano
To what depths do we dive,
If not to be labelled pure shallow
Brooding yet endearing,
Her eyes still entrapment at large
Sorry not to have met before
My life now stirring at starts
Do I carry on with lust unjust
Or dampen these forbidden needs
She wants to go out with such fun
******* Catholism and these Rosary Beads

JJB

I fear what I might miss
That day
That night
The girl I might have kissed
But a fear I have not encountered should lay easy on my mind
As this is lifes guidance to a time unwanted
A diary page best left unchartered
Words that I now should never have been muttered
An alternative path to where life will guide
As we tip our toes into the changing of the tides.

Life is short.

Please live it.

JJB

At what point did I lose the will to dig
Pounce on ideas
Elaborate that feeling
Explode my atom into mass
Write down extortionate hypnosis
Sweep away those knock backs
My knarled hand that battering ram

Maybe it's the mounting that has stopped my thought
This net with mass holes of which none I have caught
The never say no to which I now tyre
And that is just it my friend
Lost in Desire

(The world loves a dreamer)
