After my last MIR scan.
Paul Hardwick Jul 2014
Nurse link me up
to all those pipes hit me with them tubes
pump that radiation into my arm
start up you washing machine
set to spin dry
where have you gone
say something, say anything
Mr Hardwick lay still
well not very reassuring but you are still there
that is good enough for me for now
then that robot voice
breath in when you are asked and hold
hold on to what my thought
machine whirls
and i pass through that black hole
then the radiation kick in
now feeling a warm rush from my head to my toe
and what is that taste in my mouth
have just wee my self
then it was all over
nurse took the needles from my arm
told to get dress
nurse in soft tones
said do not go to any disco's tonight
why i ask
man you will glow in the dark.

Flight Attendant.
Paul Hardwick Jul 2014
The first thing she has notice
is that no blue blood has been in first class
and shoes pinch
but she smiles as she gives out the drinks
and avoids the hands of those

it is there right to.

Knights Trip.
Paul Hardwick Jul 2014
Sitting on his white horse
did feel his mind slip
and at that did fall off
hit the sand
with pain and puff
his leg broke right off
bouncing up into the surf
and swim away
from his now disconnected brain
he lay and did pray
Jesus
now I need you
to fix my leg
and make it swim back
so i can have two feet
dear knight
jesus did say
how can I do that
your leg
has already swam a mile
another 400 yards
and your leg will be in Guinness Book OF Records.

All women.

but man be warned
that women
will try to f**k you up.

Do not get old?
Paul Hardwick Jun 2014
If you get old
you end up like me
after all those parties
and concerts
and heavy music with
whistling in your head
but if listen carefully
it seams some nights
it plays me back
all those old
and fantastic tunes
and now is so much part of me
as when it was
and you wake up
put your drops into your eyes
for they sting
as much as your ears hurt
your eyes
getting old to
and some days
do not see
the pictures
as you feel them go in
as you used to
having blurred edges
which makes you not see things
even when
it's right there in front of you
my brain as now days
as I take my doctors drugs in
just seams to get
more and more smarter
although my mouth
in which the doctors drugs go in
mixes my words
but these images of words
still come from my brain
sharper now

The place where
