It's a long way down from heaven
One long way to fall.
No magic to heal me
Now you're not here to feel me.
And I fell..

I'm in the concrete jungle
With dust on my shoes.
I'm stranded.
Natures calling to my left ear.
War into my right.

I'll do anything for you.
But I'm not prepared to fight.
Hell is where I find myself.
Stranded on a stony beach.

I pick them out singly.
Skim them on the tide.
Stuck here.
Living in purgatory.
I can't decide.

I'm not leaving the shore,
I can't walk away.
See you next time.
A new place maybe.
In a trendy bar.
Away from the sea.
I sip my white wine.
Then sip my red.
Baby I love you.
Get out of my head.

Three tears and a locket.
A ball in your hand.
Fluff and flowers.
Golden chains.
Love bought swiftly without pains.
Fantastic.

America oh land of the free.
What you gonna do for me.
Or your people.

Trump chucking vile insults.
And the snakes in my hair are fighting each other.
Bill and Ben just skittles in flipping power struggles.
Poor Mohammed he's viewed differently,
But in life he's just the same.

Hillary is wondering who's gonna be her husband's latest conquest.
Guess it doesn't matter much.
Just forgive and forget.
Trumps' a misogynist, a giant lump of liar.
If he gets  elected  the world  be on fire.

Oh America,
Land of the brave,
Land of the free.
What about England?
Talk bout sweet England.
You'd be having a laugh.
England merry?
Messy England.

Perhaps a giraffe could do a better job.
Head in the noisy clouds.
Cameron's list  of toffee beaks.
The larks of summer crash to earth.
Summers' gone.
Tory rebirth.
Hoping not.

England's renewal.
Vapour trail,
Teresa's rule.
Tory woman.
Nobody's fool.
Shame eh.

Oh England
Merry England.
Descending,
Going down the pan.
It's chaos.

While Putin is disputing the way the world will go.
Boom boom.
Bang bang,
Seems to believe he's Superman.
Running the race at his pace.
A trending mosquito.
Irritant
Dangerous.
Viral.

Oh hell.
Planet's just a bowling ball.
Well  well.
Blackest magic in the air,
Who cares?
Be scared.
Very afraid.

It's grey this August,
Truly madly, deeply,
A darker shade of grey.

NO OFFENCE MEANT TO ANYONE READING, JUST A PIECE ABOUT OUR MESSY WORLD ATM

Called back to love.
Disown me if you need too.
Leave me not abandoned.
For you of beautiful moments.
I cannot set you free.
I can bleed for you.
Read to you.
Ride on clouds full up with rain,
Fall down once again,
I always do.
If ever I could stake my heart,
I'd switch it for your pain.

They said it's going rain again.
A sky full up with ****** downed raindrops.
Acidic, all full up with war.
Eastern,
Western
And they're all wearing tin hats.
Their hats be beat with wooden spoons.
Complexity of situations.
Clasp hands real tight
Dreams of friendships between nations.
Regardless of religious rifts.
A cautionary tale,
From the grounded whale
She who can change nothing
Our world in need of communication.
And just a touch of soothing.
Let us drift in to a sleep,
From where tomorrow always comes.

Roses are red with sharp thorns that bite.
Violets unholy blue,
Those roses bright red are full up with spite,
Violets are pretty tho rarely speak true.
Tulips are for kissing,
Not sure what they're missing.
Lilies are scented,
They're lacing the air,
And the green grass tells tales to the trees,
cos they listen,
The speak of the chap who cuddled the girl,
but they never repeat cos they just wouldn't dare.
Beneath the rocks the fairies do dwell,
with all seeing eyes but they never tell.
The garden's full of secrets,
That's where they lie,
Everything happens there says the all seeing eye.
But the house-folk, never know why they're looking,
Perhaps they're playing I-Spy.

Heavenly father.
He never sinned.
The priest of France he was not spared.
By men so evil.
Devil spawn?
Bless you old fella, the lord in your soul,
It is no compensation that you were already old.
You held in your heart a cross of pure gold.
Once more I tell of your nation's devastation.
