Live in the land of fantasy.
Where children play and blood runs free.
Mindful of angels who fear to tread.
Playing games of madness that live in the head.
Going to live forevermore upon the never, never score.
Angels serenade with pink lemonade.
With ***** and wine.
A score board marked with red and white ink.
Stuck in time.
Sit and think.
Time it rolls, onward and upwards.
Heaven sent.
Perhaps heaven's meant.

You,
you are an artist,
a tangible artist,
artistic in style,
artistic in temperament,
you are strung upon a knife edge,
above the deep blue sea,
and your tongue,
it rolls from day to day,
sometimes painting silver,
sometimes  painting gold,
getting more profound,
as your body's getting old,
and as you're getting older,
find you're getting colder,
the world is weighing heavy,
upon your precious shoulders,
life it lost it's magic,
or at least for you it did,
as you wallow in your not wanting love scenario,
on the dark side of the moon,
that's slugged out of a bottle,
once the bottle was that of a baby,
tender, delicate, satisfying milk,
now the satisfaction bottle is brimmed with whisky,
your rose coloured spectacles became broken,
smashed to pieces on the bedroom floor,
as you sit and sob for lost love,
like the one you had before,
and why do you cry?
the whisky did it,
it made you sob as you wanted more,
whisky,
pure moonshine made you,
your mother's lovely *****.

There be a tavern in the town.
Today, will be such a special one.
Sunshine and roses.
Several carnations.

Wedding party, out for fun,
Intermingled with everyday drinkers.
Outside in the sunny weather.
Smokers and drinkers,
Men in blue jeans and eye catching black leathers.

Today, should be a special day.
Women in fanciful fascinators, tight fitting dresses, silky tights.
Dancing on tables.
Long into the night.

A flagon of beer, a bottle of wine.
Discussing everything ironically.
With the rest of the crowd.
Which, one of them is mine or hers or even his.
Their drink that is.

Opinions change as the beverages flow.
Talking regular bull as the drink feeds the flow.
The flow of the conversation that is.
Loudly.
By the end of the night, knowing everyone's biz.
There is no volume control, evening flows on twisted tongues.

Look left, look right, straight in front of you, they're starting a fight.
Noise is enhanced by the wailing of sirens,
Those harpies with hairpins, sat on cheap plastic chairs.
Look out you lot, the blues and twos are coming.
Invading your space, just at that moment you're slapping her face.
Such a disgrace.
Bundled into the back of the van.
Two wrecked wretched women.
One stroppy man.
If nothing else fuels arguments, drink sure as hell can.

Heavy skies,
Outside my window,
Wind blows her echoes.

Chance meetings,
Obsequious dreams of storming skies,
Now waiting in patience to flash,
Skies fire filled,
Extraordinary heat spots,
Quiescent currently,
Unequivocal in connotation,
Exacerbated pre-storm break compression,
Nirvana reached as the sky snaps pain released,
Catastrophe for heavy head,
Espirit de corps,fellowship of heavy weather,
She's loyal,  she's always waiting for the mother of storms.

Occurrence of heavy weather,
Choice relief,
Culmination as pressure let,
Uncouth, the sky releases her charges,
Release and respite from the hefty heavens.

We are due a storm, supposed to be happening shortly

There is a little hedgehog.
He's curled up in my nice snug bed.
His prickly spikes are scratching my face.
His fleas invade my pit.
Although my dog, she finds him irksome,
She does nothing about it.
She wouldn't dare.
It's only down to my good taste, all three of us can share.
I called my hedgehog a he.
Do you know what, I don't know if it's a he or she.
It's just a prickly pal.
I have no intention of checking the bits that matter.
Anyway, I don't really have a hedgehog in my bed.
If I did I'd need someone to come examine my head.
I do however have a silly sense of humour.

Olivia Kent Jan 2015
The night went away.
The sun came out to play.
The hedgehogs are hiding.
Until tonight.
The cats are not crying or calling and screaming.
They went back indoors and they're taking their cream in.
Along with cat biscuits and a little meat.
The dormice are sleeping until bedtime comes.
He's dreaming of Alice and teacups and fun.
In his dream  the Mad Hatter hides,
The queen of hearts decides,who's lives and who to dies.
Who at the end of the day is alive.
It off with his noddle said she.
Stroppy witch, she takes control of croquet games and rabbit holes.

The grub the hedgehog ate, destroyed his mental state.
It was nothing to do with dormice at all.
Somebody gave him milk and bread, instead of worms and garden bugs.
Gave him ****** weird dreams.
Went straight to his head.
Dawn broke.
Shuffled back into his home, under the bushes.
In a bit of a queer confused state.
He went straight back to sleep.
Hedgehogs don't eat bread and milk.

He feeds pigeons.
They come knocking at his door,
They bill and coo,
Softly scratching at his door,
crying in a pigeon voices,
"Please sir, can we have some more".
And he invites them in,
Says," take a pew beside my fire",
Got to keep you warm, my friends,
And they stay and rest,
Just for a while,
He grins at them,
The pigeons outside his window,
He feeds them bright eye with bright eyes,
To keep their eyes shimmering,
This lonely fellows only friends!
(C) Livvi
My friend and I spoke on the phone this morning, he said the pigeons needed feeding, so he fed them!
Olivia Kent Aug 2013
Know not what's going on, for in a nightmare of fear remains,
An ignorance of understanding painted with a stippled brush,
Messages left go to the grave,
Dashed in unmentionable silence,
Element of ignorance,
Rips stomach out with heart and soul,
Quest of questions without response,
Internal volcano fluctuates,
Preparing to erupt as spot of poison hits the surface,
In manic explosive, silent mode,
As nausea attacks!

Left my head in a cotton wool cloud,
Drizzle bathes my hair,
A halo of warmth exuded,
Sensibility is too elusive,
Thoughts and indecision bind my head, blinding my eyes,
Pink ribbons strap my heart to my sleeve,
Not mad, not really mental,
Sentiment got me,
I can't fight anymore,
Put my banners down,
Folded them up and stashed them away,
Don't want my pasted frailty revealed,
I hide under toadstools,
To avoid my own toxicity,
A ***** mess of misted glasses,
Can't see the wood for the trees,
The trees have more insight than me,
The grass whispers to my heart,
Telling me I'm gonna be alright,
I'm not sure, I don't feel right!
I wish I did, lost between here and there,
Lost, maybe I'm not anywhere,
I really don't care!
Poetry is my outlet, my way of escape,
Crushed, squashed like a superficial grape!

I fell into your eyes.
I held tight to your hand.
I tripped on your words and you fell for mine.
I regarded you as my equal,maybe more.
And I disregarded your wheels.
Two misfits that fit.
A perfectly carved jigsaw.
I'm  swollen on you.

My friend is only one of few who actually spoke to me with Words- worthy of tongues.
Another poet of note.
We speak face to face on Facebook chat, about a bit of this and that.
My friendly wolf, who isn't big and bad.
He blows not my house down...he lives much much too far away.
Today we collaborated had a bit of fun.
~x~
I also did collaborations with Christos Andreas Kourtis.
My true life funny friend.
Lives not quite so far.
Magic moments spent and penned.
Once upon a life time ago.
Not seen him for a year or more.
We shared our worlds a while ago.
Made each other smile.

I love to write with others.
If you fancy playing words.
Message me and let me know .

I am not the goddess of hell's fire!
I only bring joy in  my wake...no prisoners do I ever take....
I speak a mind so wild so free, sometimes as whirling dervish, rich!
I peel back not my skin,
a sweet loyal heart is found....I keep her deep within,
Bleeding ruddy blood again.......
Blood is fire to my body, fuels hell's fire released into my brain!
My spirit settles.......
I'm running free again !

Watching Henry rising into the twilight sky.
Clouds piling upwards.
As the sunshine says good bye.
The clouds are mountainous.
Oh hell.
The stream will be tumultuous as once again the troll's revived.
Later tonight as darkness falls.
The legend will arise.
Staying indoors.
Snug as a bug.
For tomorrow's skies will be for a short time.
So much more than wild.
"Hooray, Henry".

HER
HER

She was beautiful,
a figurine.
Intricate and elegant.
A piece of hand written music,
play her on a harp,
maybe a harpsichord.
She is a perfect poem .
written by a perfect gentleman,
to the lady of his dreams.
She is the silver,
in the poor man's purse.
The honey to the bee,
The mead to lace the drinker's jar.
She is a perfect kiss to share,
as the sky plays a part in getting dark.
She is a crystal that carries a spark.
She opens the eyes of the man who is wise.
She is the lady who carried the chalice,
Unto the crusade,
in which many men died.
She is the one,
who made many men cry.
She is the one,
the only one,
the one great man,
he made her cry.
And to this day she's still crying inside.

Her Perfect Form!

She comes in many forms.
In tall classical elegance.
Her beautiful words dance.
Classy impressive she's such a dame.
Wholly suggestive.
Rarely tame.
From demons to monsters and mythical beings.
Historical sagas placed in shortened lines.
Dark at times.
Where she in shadows dwells.

Sometimes kisses tales of wishing wells.
Writes full soap operas.
Dramas created at times.
Comic writes of silly stuff.
Some just like Donald Duck.
Hey.
Who gives a f++k.
It's all in the name of poetry to me.
Fills my heart .
My brain's on fire.
If I didn't admit it then I'd be a liar!

Hey You!

Pick up that gun.
Pull the trigger.
See who is going to be first,
The first one to snigger.

Hey you.
Shaking in your pixie boots.
Do you think she's gonna shoot.

Wry smile creeps.
From eyes that don't weep.
That peep around corners.
Abridged by the mourners.

Hey you.
Is she feeling blue.
Is she gonna run a main line.

Leaving tracks from vacant trains.
A fix to write all wrongs.
No man.
Chemical solutions never fixed the pain.
No needles ever entered her sweet veins.

Mortal remains of love unchanged.

Tibbets.
Shadows fell at eight fifteen.
Shadow of a 'little boy'
As if a camera exploded.
Flash it went.


Pagoda tall standing, once upon a time.
A desecrated ground, unholy.
No fiery fairy tale in this place.
Death's location
Eerily sensations surround.
Destructive force hit home.

No eagles fly.
In this eerie place.
A silent world sleeps.
As mother weeps.
Not by choice.

Living screams a revelation.
A human created Armageddon.
Piles of smoke seen at the scene of evil.
Mega-mushroom killed the skies.
Most of humankind in this land felt its force.
Death as it cruised it's certain course

Zombies walk.
One or few.
The activity of war.
Now won.
Revenge bit back.
Severely.

Buried deep in the victim's skin.
And still the fever grew.
Under skin of souls.
Almost peeled.
Severe pain as landscape diffused into the land.
Creature of the bomb demonic.
Silhouetted dead men.
Painted standing structures.

Such sickness in a place laced with fractured glass.
Ultimate act of war.
Bring on power of peace.

He was her friend in pen and lover in life.
Never to be his mortal wife.
He missed her thus much.
Missed her kisses,
So much missed her touch.
Her wishes.

Reality dawned.
It all got too much.
His pen hid in his wings.
Reminds him that she will always be there.
With buckets of love and tender care.
That chick with the auburn hair.

Perchance you may find it beneath a granite lump.
Upon the moors where 'tis stranded.
Stuck hard and fast.
It knows you're there.
It decided to hide.
It's playing games.

The rock is heavy.
Too heavy to bear.
It made a decision.
It's just staying there.
It's quiet and peaceful, in this here quaint spot.
It tells me it's staying there, under that rock.
Until the mood strikes it, to break free.
When the sunshine of summer brightens it up.

For it's love that decided to stay there under his rock.
He told me in a feisty voice that he would come out again.

Wasn't ready just now, his last vile partner was a cow.
He said he thinks too much.
The pressure of the expectation of his being is blistering his brain.
And still he hides under his rock, wrapped up in a soggy sock.
Loves hides himself in quite the weirdest spots,
He can't remember what to do.
He told me he just forgot.

She wears a beautiful shadow.
She once hung in your wardrobe at night,.
You were smitten by her.
She your once lover.
Your love given freely.
You smirk as you flippantly flirt.
You neglect to mention the name,
The name of the special one.
Who once switched on your sun.

Hiding!
I hide in a world where I want to be,
Diamonds of lost love enduring, but me.
With passion in buckets and crumpets for tea.
Hold me and love me, don't dare set me free.
Your love got me *******,
I'm stuck in a box.
I cannot escape, although opportunity knocks.
I have emeralds of jealousy under my feet.
Each morning, pearls of wisdom as you and I meet.
We just became close friends.
Me, my words and crisp box of pens.
My ruby heart's punctured, it's ripped beyond belief.
Come home to me darling, bring me sweet relief.

The wind is tapping my window.
With fingers almost breaking through.
Put my fingers on the pane.
Leaves finger dabs in situ.
This wind's a violent *******.
Trying to beat it's way indoors.
When it should really reside outside.

It's rattling and cackling,
Liken to a wailing witch.
This foul weather such a *****.
The trains are cancelled.
Nearly blowing over.
Bus wobbled like a top.
If this wind it not stop.
Think I'll find my house in Oz.

High Esteem

Drip drip.
The shards of the smashed clock.
Lay powdered on the deck of sighs.
Tick tock vanished.
Oblivious of moments spent.
Overtly obvious.

Eyes peeled as blood oranges.
After visit from assailants hands.
And still they drip.

She dropped to her knees in terrors distress.
It's off with her head in a field of regret.
In a misery of meaningless life.

She did die.
Truly she did.
Executed by her own well written lines,
AWOL,
Her high self-esteem!

Good god you're in a freaking mess .
Over cultured under-dressed.
A pearl living in suburbia.
A face crippled by wrinkles.
Support offered only, by undernourished blood and bone.
You try to raise a smile, but your supportive cement foundation breaks.
Your lips a shade of putrid pink.
Once a girl of glamour.
Sported a pearl necklace.
A sporty kind of gal.
Etiquette on legs.
Standing before me.
After the night that she fell from grace.
Society disgrace.
Just  high and mighty dregs left behind.
Sediment at the base of an old whine bottle.
I cared enough to notice you.
Must have been the nurse in me.
I stopped.
We chatted.
I saw how you felt.
I felt it too.
We drank tea together.
I rested the leather on the soles, of my overworked shoes.
I so enjoyed the moments I spent.
Those spent creating you deep in my mind.

Sing me a love song.
Make it a lullaby.
Stroke my hair.
Make me cry
Screaming out, don't know why.
Spilling tears, splitting hairs.
Feed me believe me, somebody cares.
Phantoms and spectres that hang overnight.
Jazz band flicks a crucial tune.
Crucifixes stain the moon.
Taking flight.
Jet planes and hovercrafts stolen from home.
Fetching the trendiest French garden gnomes.
House full of gnomes.
There's nobody home.
Exception, the spirit, of said garden gnome.

Streets lit by car lights.
Carriages long gone.
Two wheeled horses banging on and on.
Huge machines.
C.C's please me.
Tearing by, proud as ever.
Sporting moments, wearing leather.
Thunderstorms on burning wheels.
Dusty trails on city streets.
Desert highway cruising.
Motors always running.
Heat haze.
Rainbow oil stains.
Ride the long and short of all.
Solo.
Pillion.
One in a million.
Thrill on the back of a mighty bike.

There's a house on the hill.
It's full of ill will.

There's a witch living there.
But the towns folk don't care.

She's lived there privately.
Nobody sees the wart on her nose as it grows.
Everyone's heard of her, but nobody knows.

They don't ever see the black hair on her chin.
All petrified, none going in.

The cows in the field withhold their yield.
Stays inside their udders.
Blaming the witch but it's never revealed.

The witch finder general thinks he's a soldier.
As suspends her over the ducking pool.
All is revealed as he is a fool.

For the times have changed.
Witch finders extinct.

Believe what you like.
Witches don't turn milk sour.

Witch finders went out of fashion.
The house on the hill is still's just a myth.

Witches' name is old sister Smith.
No dangers of black magic.

No sign of a spell book.
Go visit her.

She'll set you free.
If you're very lucky she'll make you some tea.

In your eyes I find the meaning of creation,
The making of poetry,
Filled with darkness,
Filled with love,
A messy misnoma,
From a dark heart full of tenderness,
Drawing pain from imagery,
Painting pain with blistered pen,
Sketching love with cherished words,
Adoring me inside your eyes,
Black eyes,
Very rare,
Your black eyes admit you care!

Be thy warned insipid one,
The lady rests not on her laurels,
She's not at peace, before thine eyes,
The lady loves, because she can,
Lady Madonna, she walks on egg shells,
As prima- donna,
she is awestruck,
Hiding from the eyes of mortal men and angels,
She's carried on the pens,
Where religion disintegrates,
from the souls of other lonely writers,
This beautiful lady,
she's not for turning,
It's not only witches, 
these days,
that the evil ones are burning,
And that they should not do,
Where proof is non-existent,
This lady has a golden heart and the face of Mona Lisa.

Airbrushing history, with genuine sable.
Spilling drops of colour,upon the kitchen table,verdant green, scheme of things.
Pictures of such pretty stuff.
Built of rocks, fragmented clay.
Remnants curing yesterday.
Taste of ham and wild boar, upon the streets the courtyard *****.
Mysteries from history,underground culture, scavengers, vultures. Astounding,unearthed, rebirthed.
Revelations, handle carefully.
Secret lives exposé, book of secrets out to play.
Books fall open, trembling as poplars do, cutting clouds in ribbons strands.
Grasping past lives with both hands.

I hit you with my poetry,
Hit you with my mind,
Bedazzled,
Sweet diamonds from deep inside sparkling mind,
I find,
Sleek crisp, emerald, toxic  green .....toxicity breaks,
She shivers and quakes.....!
Having a laugh at all in her path!
Sapphire,
well she's truly on fire blazing deep down in her heart, no longer strangled!
Ruby so red,
Christ she's so nearly dead.... loud and vivacious at times,
Head smashing crystals and pearls, they're the girls!
Amethyst, she forms a tryst betwixt,
other gifted writers, such note,
Unearthing pure gems daily,
From deep mine.... dark, so dim, another dark write born....!

She is a little spirit,
her head escapes as springtime flowers,
only for her,
she is not dark, as midnight skies,
as she speaks the truth and tells no lies.
Her words are just a hobby,
a,not at workplace occupation.

She is what you see,
when her words you read,
a fantastic imagination.
She wants you to see what she physically doesn't,
but in her brain she does create,
almost a work of art,
She is almost the Mona Lisa,
an enigmatic work of art.
with a pen that's fueled by rocket fuel.
showing empathy and sympathy,
and clear understanding.
She wants you to be able to appreciate her weird words,
the ones she generates
To feel them,
to see them.
to breathe them.,
maybe, even drown in them,
metaphorically of course.

She never was a lunatic,
baying skywards,
at the crescent moon,
She has the sun in her hair,
and care in her eyes,
A soul filled up with passion,
as ink spots,
being ejected from her purple pen.

The hobby horse it bolted,
To him I'm still attached,
Bumping along the gravel track,
My arms are torn to ribbons,
My head is sorely hurt,
Hobby horse was just a game,
Grey corduroy head bowed low,
A matter of respect ,
I'm told,
It's neckerchief of gingham was checked in red and white,
Caught him on a bramble bush as I went flying by,
It poked him smartly in the eye,
Never saw what was going on,
His brain was made of fluff,
His heart was made of solid wood,
He wasn't always very good,
He was a dashing fellow,
His slender body pole,
Painted florescent yellow,
So all could see him coming,
He was just my favourite hobby horse,
Of course!

Hold my love.
Take it in your loving hands.
While you have the chance.
Feed it my friend.
Lay it in your bed resting at your side.
In feelings that can't be denied.
Encase my ******* so tenderly.
Run your fingers over my inner thighs.
Bring a sparkle back into my eyes.
Kiss me with fire.
That nearly burns me inside and out.
Lick me with love.
Like I haven't felt since the summer days died.
Capture me darling.
Take me back on our wild ride of words.
Of words and birds.
And evil so forgiven.
In honour of you.
My love, your poetic friend.
Twist not your knife, deeper into my back!

Hole (Dark Humour)

Whole body placed,
a soul in hole!

Deposited to fire,
Instead,

Does it matter if you're dead?

Your feelings are lacking,

Nerve endings are still!

Inter me maybe, under the hill,

Throw my body on the tip,

Don't think that's really very hip,

Or cool,

When you're dead,
You're no-ones fool,

Maybe sling me in the sea,

In Singapore perhaps,

Haw Haw!

Got nobody,

Need no more!

Make do and mend.
Let's play, let's pretend.
Can we get any better?
The grass that we play on becomes so much wetter.
It's raining again.
It's all pouring pain.
Will your eyelids still flutter?
Maybe drip cocoa butter, that's melted.
Or peanut butter may the lumps make you splutter.
Maybe you'll choke on chunks of old peanuts and breath in wood-smoke.
Down in the wild woods, lets go be good.
Let's chase away bears, last seen munching hares.
Hide in the tree roots, write love notes in charcoal.
"Look out honey, can you see that big hole?"
Obviously not, you fell into it.
My cell phone won't work, I have no signal.
Time to do what the Indians do,
Smoke signals lit and now I sit.
You're still stuck in that hole,
Nothing I can do now but take a pew,
On an ancient tree stump I flop.
When will this stop.
Through the trees comes a sneeze, followed by an Indian brave.
He came with a rope, to save you and I.
Guess my smoke signal language was right.
"How" said he with a beaming smile, " you're the first ones I rescued in quite a long while"
"If you go down in the woods today, look out for holes while you're out at play".
Home they all went with a brilliant grin.
I guess my  silly story here took you all in.

Pawns and paws
Walks with ******,
Along sandy shores.
All lifes chores.
Just a surety.
A holiday romance ,
A gay old dance.
Chucking cheap flowers into ditches
given to woman who're *******.
Chrysalis kisses with lizard lips and swirling hips, riding trips.
Feeling nothing, its cold in her soul.
Something's missing, there's only a whole
Its under her feet,
It's your vacant seat.
Legs elevated, love understated.
Truth overrated.
But, to feel your heart beating again.
Such a sweet thing.
Sipping wine alone as you called me, you're making things fine again.
It's all in my brain.
A sickly stain, of written pain
Painted on the bedroom walls, like waterfalls.
Coated in party foam, memorial to the man in Rome.

A house should have.
Love coursing
through it's veins.
From the foundations.
Homes build nations.
Where lovers live.
It should carry the voices of children.
As they're playing at childish dreams.
It needs feeling.
Senses.
Wealth of smells.
Many more smiles.
It should be a haven outside heaven.
Cosy as an egg cup.
With a hat on ,
That's the roof.
Warm and protective.

Welcome to Southampton.
My home.

From the bowels of the ground.
Roman history found.
Bones of legions of soldiers, interred.
Trinkets, medieval of iron and brass.
Safely locked away undiscovered.
The city underground, now found.
An excavation of city life from ancient days.
Museums forgiven for  Victorian remnants withheld.
Now set free for all to see.


Delivered Titanic in majesty unto evil seas.
Where devils of ice took a chew from her bow.
Reflect on what became of her now.
Where folks sang in harmony, as anchors raised.
Her magnificent  glory, all beauty praised.
And children played on the quayside.
The future was locked and lost at first berth.
Monsters of seas snatched her from Earth.

My city my home.
Steeped in histories mysteries.
Kept safe in the diaries of time!

On my way home I saw him,
a tubby man with blazing face,
his face was gnarled and twisted,
his nose, seemed to have been pulped,
a few times too many,
sat on the floor outside the station,
everyone else looked at him as if he's discarded,
a piece of  simple trash,
he talked to me,
he said,
you been to work today?
he looked hungry,
not sure what he was actually hankering for,
I couldn't see a heart inside,
his eyes blankly struggled to even raise a smile,
he looked like he wanted to be in the pink,
but he was red,
more read than a cheap tabloid,
seen by many passers by,
without an ounce of attention.

Homeless in Dreams!

Blanket crumpled on the deck.
A mouldy mound of grey.
Tin discarded empty.
Disregarded on the floor.

The hollow echo of the subway.
Thunder crashes rhythmically overhead.
A hundred commuters tear down the stairs.
From train where he laid his head.
And he lies.
Disregarded as the empty can.
No body cares.

In dreams.
He sleeps.
Cares not.
As no one cares for him.

Standing by the soup kitchen,
Wrapped up in freezing cold.
Not very old in numbers,
but feeling rather old.
The townsfolk snub him,
They ignore his missus.
His fingers sparkle blue and red,
No magic lurks within.
His blanket's rather itchy.
the people passing by,
are either numb or ******.
get a job, they shout for sport.
their coffee cup, their only support.
It beggars belief that the poor souls get grief.
There for the grace of God go I.

A congregation of homeless folk.
Sat on the kerbside.
It's no joke.
One man, his dog and straggling lady.
All struggling to survive.
They're just staying alive.
"Oh oh oh,staying alive"..in the words of the Bee Gees.
Somehow they thrive.
Just staying alive.
Slaves to government!
Disinterested.
Disinterred.
Dug up.
Another problem for babbling rabbling Britain.
Streets full of poverty.
Lovelorn strangers.
Never free.

He would've jumped through hoops for her.
And Friday's come around again.
Loved her ever always, has no clue he hath her squashed.
She once was that blessed kiss on his lips, that tug on his wrist, the pull on his hips.
Now they're just ships that pass in the night.
Initial emotions
Locked out of sight.
He was the breeze in her hair.
So unfair, that he shattered her dreams,
All left behind, in the drama of a broken mirror , after all they hath no care, mirrors care not for what they view.
Not you or him nor him or you.
And the band plays on in ignorance.
Still the people dance.
All so unfair.

HOPE

Break free from the mirror of reflection.
Keep not restrained a heart in chains.
Canvas of memories painted on glass.
Pray not that glass of crystal.
Be so fragile, should it shatter.
Dissolve sadly into dust.

Dust from interrupted glass.
Now reincarnated into glass anew.
Blown from the sands of time.
Carried on the breeze.
Leave the lover of life.
Nevermore terrible luck.

Fight to loose ruinous recollection.
Break away, breach the storm with no devastation.
Let once reflected love become a fragile dancer.
Sweeping away the confetti of lost love.
Reflected in past tense.

Follow the river.
The twinkling river.
Meandering river,
It's flowing towards the estuary.

Leading into the cold lonely sea.
Gnawing chill.
The metaphor of the teeth of the shark.
That fires the frenzy,
Which rides on the waves.
Upon the shore stranded.
Pray let thee be saved.
Strands of seaweed, twisted together as rope.
Found rocky delight.
In an outcrop of rock pools.
****** and *****.
Hopelessly twisting a moment or two.
No doubt here in this darkest of places.
Her face, forward moving.
Aimlessly dreaming.
But it's giving her hope.

Love me please sweet sugar puff.
To love me back is not that tough.
Hold me in your gentle arms.
That magic you fed me.
Boy, you got me charmed.
Used no chemicals, just a bunch of hormones.
Hormones and pheromones.
Such a sparking combination.
I'm stuck in a land betwixt here or there.
I cannot believe that you cannot care.
You are weird, I am two.
Two weirdos together make me and you.

Last night I was sent a video.
Disturbed me greatly.
Crying rivers of guilty conscience.
But, I said I had pollen in my eyes instead.
The video I saw was an execution video of animals being broken.
By the end hundreds of fellow creatures would have been dead.
I couldn't finish watching it
In fact three seconds made me sick.
Dietary habits up for change.

So waiting for thunder to bring on the rain.
This morning was better but, now I'm in pain.
Thor, I beseech thee to bring me a storm.
Dancing cloud cover, needed as norm.
I'm feeling dried out.
Outside is wet.
Not what you're thinking.
Referring to sweat.
I'm melting as a lolly.
A lolly that's hot.
Please norse god, give me thunder claps.
And rain, that drip drops.
