I wish there was a better way,
To show things will get better,
Than stupid umbrella metaphors.
Because the truth is,
No amount of wisdom can really help,
When darkness is a brainless beast.

I wish there was a way to make things change,
Nothing big,
Just to shake up the rocks.
To unstuck everybody who needs it,
It’s not much compared to these pains,
But I promise we will see the sun.
There’s more to be done and there are people in pain that deserve saving. Do not close your eyes to grief for the only way to overcome an oppressor is to stand and fight against it. Weep not when the fight is hard, when it is as if you’re trying to push back an ocean. For if you’re out of fight there is always someone willing to fight for you. These days light is scarce and peace is rare but there is still hope to believe in. I beg you to refuse giving up, to refuse to fall down further, I beg you, climb higher. When you reach the top all you will have to fear is falling, and if we refuse to fall, there is no fear to be had. Life is the time between the sun setting and rising, we will see the day!

Some sadness
Can't be burnt away
You'd get asbestosis
From the smoulder
You've got to wait
For brittleness
It's chips away
As you get older.

Once
Love handles
Now
Just grips
Unhandled.

The dreams of meals past
Visited me last night
And made me
Revisit all my waste
By Christ there was
A lot of it
Hard to take it in
Talk about
Repent in haste

Is it better
To **** little
And often
Or go for the
Bread and butter
Clean out?
I'm getting
Conflicting opinions
Down the pub
Cos you only get
So much mileage
When it comes to
Human silage
You'll get your
Comeuppance
There's the rub.

The trees shake with fear
The beast is drawing near
You can hear
Its roar and rattle from
Afar
The bins will soon be empty
The dragon feeds aplenty
On our packaging
And food wastage
Oh la la!
