They are still alive in the breeze,
In the birds, butterflies and trees,
The scents, the rain, the sun and snow,
They are with you where you go!

Untamed and raw
Feels free
Not functional
Yet real and rugged
Pure and true

Raw is real
Rugged's untamed
If I was another
Would I be the same?

The hills play with the clouds
then in thunderous spasm
the heavens erupt
and the rain fills the chasm

The big man is gone...

...Forever
He slipped into night,
carried away to sky
Stop the clocks;
stand still,
reflect
His memory never may die

He remains in our hearts,
in our minds
His name
will forever ring true
He's sailed away
to a different place
One day,
once again
with you

*One day...
                   Once again...
                                           With you!

Shagri-La* (Lhasa);
now ruined
forever

Coastal Starlight
Burning bright
On the West Coast
Through the night

Baseball cages
Swing/miss rages
Concentrate; swing through
Sweet spot; PING, phew!

Looking for the lyrics of my life
Wondering why why girl's my wife
Hopeful dreams of the future
Listening to O K Computer

Is this just a fragment of my mind?
Or a spectre of good times
Why can't this be forever
To hold on would be dilemma

In this world of make belief
You can run or can cheat
But to cheat is defeat
Is this your animated life?

*Fight* for what's right
Beginning, your *flight...

Mystic thoughts
Laws of torts
Spasms of my mind

Dreams of gold
Stories untold
Timeless stories timed

Reckless revenge
Once were friends
Crazy - madness -- STOP

Cure the cureless
Empty carress
Long drop short stop

Beaming white light emits down;
Moon am I
Clouds are thee
Doth thou halt my shining?


The light reflects by inky black;
River am I
Dam are thee
Doth thou ebb my flow?


The inspiration conjures from thoughts & senses;
Scribe am I
Critic are thee
Doth thou slay my words?


Blood flows through;
Heart am I
Clot are thee
*Doth thou end my life?

One pint of the cold dark social drink
Two pints I start to stop and think



Three pints            ...four pints
                                              ...five pints more
Nine pints        dancing
                                         round            
                                  the
                      floor



Ten pints...                 I stop to...
                                   start and

think


...I need
           a few                more
                        pints
      to                                               drink!

A million paths passed me by, I chose to choose not one,
Feeling robbed by too much loss, now the chances were all gone.

The stars shine bright
in deep blue night
the heavens impede
into earth

The lonely chill
on the daffodil
dew drops gently
give birth

water trickles
down and down
through moss that
has a thirst

the ebb and flow
the rainbow glow
brings life
witness its worth

Bad;

fifty four words to make it four hundred
just forty three words to go
forty three words to make it four hundred
just thirty one words to go
Thirty one words to make it four hundred
just sixteen words to go
Sixteen words to make it four hundred
five four three two
oh
none!

Can I make it to

"You'll grow old
alone"

I look around
I see you're
all
growing old
not just... (they were wrong!)

I've been told...

did I not convey

I meant to say
okay

I helped again
and again you fecked
it up THE END.

Exotic ladies flaunt their wares
to joe publics wanten stares,
'They' do this to earn their crust
'They' do this out of lust.

In the darkness of the narrow street
the gawping public shuffle feet,
The lights illuminate carnal pleasure
while 'they' peruse at their leisure.

Here is a woman drenched in red
a female who works from her bed,
How did she get here?
Why does she stay there?

A parade of cat and mouse
at the seedy brothel house,
Gestures of blazing desire
fuel the burning ****** fire.

The lightest rose shines bright
The brightest day brings the darkest night

*Riddled with wine  --  stinking of *****
he wonders the streets  --  with nothing to loose

his head held high  -- to squander attack
of the dogs that would hack at his back

where's the rose to shine
where is the wine
in the darkest night
who brings the fight
