Red White and Blue.

I feel for you
I feel your horror
but be one, with yourself
as we are one with you

Is it me? updated 1.1.
Paul Hardwick Jul 2013
IS it Me?
or just my soul
that needs this space
so as a man i can feel whole.

Is it just me?
or just what i am told
that now I need this space.

I can not sleep
and in the thirteens years never have
slept the time of time.

Cardinal number
of a man getting old
my blood boils down, I am man getting old.

Temperature taken out
please woman do not organize my soul
for I am just this man.

And I see the rain fall
now i think did I put those plants out
woman do not try to take hold of me.

And if you find this,
as a man that can no loger think of himself
then woman, whom is in the wrong?
Sorry woman, but i had to be said, woman you stop me from growing.  LOVE Paul :-)

What does it make?
Paul Hardwick Feb 2016
If you stand in a small corner
dose that make you feel tall?
and what's the point in wearing that stupid pointed hat on your head?
and why did my tutors in youth
not know that?
That was not good for me
and was not what they should have done
and you know
I feel glad knowing when I farted in the lift
at the school reunion
it was so wrong on so many levels.

Yesturday's shadows.
Paul Hardwick Aug 2015
When I awoke today
while walking down the street
and looking at my feet
it came across my mind
as the sun beat down
I was looking at yesturday's shadows
when your shadow walk next to mine
and seamed to make me feel whole
and now that shadow was just mine
and feeling the hole within my soul
I longed for yesterday's.

Mind lick a limp hand.
Paul Hardwick Jul 2018
Time has told me
I get old
We get old
The mind is not what your told
You forget
all the things you try
to remember you forget
on that
the other day
a lot before this day
we held each other
do you remember that day
I wish you hold me now

your warmth against me
and how that played with my mind
I was not all you wanted
me to be
But LOved you
you seem
Then I to know that your life played me.

If I WAS.
Paul Hardwick Aug 2013
Why then am, I NOT
what I was
and why I am like I am
my own words
I am not
Feeling the people

So the beat goes on.

I just am, so my breath goes on
I can dance, and shimmy a little
well on a good day, and maybe wiggle
but as the days go on
my heart goes on.

and the beat changes.

For that WAS is NOT there any more
all I have is what
I think so
if you do not agree say so.

AND that was me              If I         W                 A                S.

When I smoke the weed.
Paul Hardwick Dec 2013
Time does not bother me no more
and love is what it is
seams to me on a distant shore
time has just become
What it should be
But life can pass you by
Life seams as if in backwards
seams as it has stopped
but there is still movement
on my shore
maybe love exists

When I smoke the **** then maybe I am not sure.
Could be called Mary Jane.      :-)

Paul Hardwick Feb 2012
O where has the love gone.
The love I so cherished.
The sweat.
The sweet smile.
Warm embrace.
Misplace smile on your face.
The nod the wink.
Or that look in your eye.
That tells me I am wrong.
The look that catches my breath.
And scarers me half to death.
Princess where has that love gone?

For when we met you in the 60’s.
It was love on that road.
I had hair, and love and *****.
Such a heavy load.

O where has the love gone.

But there is more, letters, I love more, than you, but something took you from me.
more than spoons, and covering your face, which i still see in grace the grace of you.

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.

lady in the blue dress.
Paul Hardwick Aug 2012
I met this girl
at a party to this day
i do not know
who she was
she ran her fingers up my neck
and instantly i did not know
who i was
her eye looked so deep in mine
it seamed to affect my mind
lady in the blue silk dress
my mind is yours
summers past till i met her again
but i had to resist her
for i was not the man she had know before
my life had moved on
and my soul was united

Seam like
My tech phobia
in this neck of this wood
is not street scene
just has not been

I woke up this morning
sniff a few flowers
and went back to sleep

But clear as day
I said it all
and would say it again

I can not help that,

that is me.

I want to talk about brain cells
when you see that flash in your eye
thats you bouncing off the cell walls
and it's die'in
and god knows I have lots of those
and in the brain will never be replaced
for after 22 you brain starts die'in
but some good news
I am much more wiser than I ever was before
if I can remember what it was
did you see that flash
it just happened again.

so it can not be a colour
standing in all it greyness all alone

True story ***.
Paul Hardwick Aug 2015
The first thing I noticed
was how cold my feet are
The second
man I'am naked, a feeling of being born again
The third
was how abel I have become
The forth
was how did you get here, did you sneak inside my head
The fifth
was how to love, and how it bits you in the shin
The sixth
was there's no life belt outside of my head
The seventh
was that heaven only exists in your minds and nothing outside
The eighth
was pain, as my body burns, in this your creative hell
The ninth
was to be myself
The tenth
to get back inside of head.

then find yourself
and will be gone.

and fix it in my dreams
but i know there will much
to give up but today i sing

and think that the children

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

On words that ended in ology.
I found very difficult.
To answer more than three.

Although campanology rang a bell.

So I ask this question.
To the BBC.
Is there an ology for everything.

BUT!!!!! wait a minuete lets see.

           I balanced.
       And had my blue days.
  Even went over the edge.

Poems I like an egg stain on my face.

other than what it has been

I see lizards
that become wizards
dam I am a sleep again.
