"macdonalds" poems
birches and tastsy jerky wood.  resin in the immediate shubbary.... and dust and cobwwebs growing adjacent to the jerky wood.  Myraid of birds, ranging from small birch-types to crows.  A lingering dominant hawk.  A giant possum crossing between borders carrying unborn infants.  Dusty walls with abandonded spiderwebs- insect carcassases dangling, still.  Pool motors revving in every direction lets of a subtle hum that compliments the planes descending and ascending oer-head the water is grainy yet cool and healing.  the sprinklers function at midnight and sometimes on the weekend.  Maintinance trucks, expensive commuter vehicals, modest vehicls, unmanned vehicles, arrowhead trucks, macdonalds trucks, safeway trucks.... the earth is still wheaty and chalky adjacent the jerky trees, the jerky trees have little hairs and appetizing off red color, the bark saddles off with grace and with a satisfying tare.

Remember when we went to the barrage and had a picnic? yeah that was nice. all those crazy photos and swatting away ants from our picnic mat. Do you remember that time you were grounded for months? and i was the only one who could come over and we'd play in your garden with the garden hose all afternoon and then have dinner in our drenched clothes. Do you remember that time we got drunk on breezers and my mum had to come pick us up? she was mad for so long after that and didnt want us to see each other but we did. many times. to have apple pie from macdonalds or just to talk about boys. Do you remember that time your mom found out you were smoking and i took the wrap for you and let her believe it was under my influence that you did so. she called me up and demanded answers from me and threatened to call my mom. Do you remember when we went for that camp together and cried like babies thinking about how small we've become since growing up in this world with people who don't understand us like we do each other? we made a pact to forgive all those people but we needed each others help. Do you remember us both crying about our first heartbreaks? It was so unfair because it was never our faults that it didnt work out. it was just never the right time or place. Thats how the universe pushed us together, we'd find each other in all the wrong times and it was the most beautiful thing. Do you remember when i found out you lied. Again, and then that other time. You told me it was a phase and its over. but the phases keep coming on. Do you remember the look on my face? did you notice it at all. cause thats the face when i knew everything that was coming out of your mouth was a lie. Why? i never understood. was i not accepting enough? Do you not remember everything we've been through or was it just never enough. Do you remember all that we used to be? Do you remember kicking up the leaves? Do you remember our plans to travel the world. Do you remember ME..?

I make gold rain i know it hurts but thats a good pain I make you rich with out even trying  why you cryin I ain´t even shyin away from my fame like a million dollar baby born with a silver spoon now tell me thats not shady cause it ain´t son. I´m the one you been looking for the one you been seeking for the one you been reaching for im the golf ball in the air so yell fore! cause I´m there. Mother ***** I´ll never be a trucka when I got rhymes like dimes which take no time to fight some illegal activity. I put suckas in cribs cause I make dem weep like kids now run home and **** on some **** Im a million dollar baby born with a silver spoon for ***** I´m the best son cause all I do is have fun. Can´t touch this you know you want this too hot to play with you too busy making barbeque, ON MY CHEST. I´m ******* hot not like the rest cause I spit seeds from rasberries and I know she carries blackberries but I don´t want those no more fo show. Ya know what I´m sayin. Just to prove it doesn´t matter how you act as long as its fact that your having fun, dont mean to shun with offense in any wrong tense I said with some words that if I played the guitar I´d play you some cords but I can´t so I end this rhyme with some swords.

To be taken seriously
Walking in crowds ,it's like I'm walking through glue and half of them texting on mobiles,it's vexing. Some solvent will solve it,dissolve them away, I should have thought of it earlier but it's been a hell of a day. Where do they come from,why don't they go and why don't they move,that's what I want to know?they're in Primark and Tesco and eating alfresco,(MacDonalds of course)how coarse can one get? I should be a reclusive find people elusive and that is my dream until then I shall scream at them,Ladies and Gentlemen clear me a path,I don't want to bath with you just want to pass by you, just like I'm walking through glue.

I fear a day When you'll sit next to me And my phone will vibrate A message from you asking what's for lunch? I fear a day When talented beings Educated with graduate degrees Will work in MacDonalds For minimum wage I fear a day Where I'll need to take out a mortgage For a parking fee Daylight robbery I fear a day Where kids will no longer Play at the park No one ever heard of jigsaws And wooden train sets I fear a day When strangers would be able to see My every post People I don't even know Will know all about me I fear a day When people will drive to the gym To run on the treadmill And we'll all forget The luminous glow of the moon I fear a day We'll forget about stars And handwritten cards When we'll care more about cars Than our counterparts I fear a day When the world will all speak English And read shakespeare Wear the same high street gear And eat KFC I fear a day Where honour and dignity Respect and modesty Will be a thing of the past And those who hold steadfast To their culture and traditions Ways of life Will be mocked and ridiculed as backwards I fear a day When all my fears Come true And that day a part of me will die inside I'll lose the sound of your voice And mums special home-made recipes with secret ingredients I'll lose the way your letters felt Slanted and joined so rounded together The way the cross on the t and the dot on the i's leaned to hug one another I'll lose the rush of the wind As I felt how it was to fly on a swing The reassuring touch on my back as you pushed and held me back then helped me to stop I fear a day I will breathe but cease to exist Lost in mere memories of a past Where I was meant to be

There's KFC in the cupboards and kebab in my hair and them ******* Macdonalds are just everywhere, please take me away from this fat food today or I'll pop,let me shop in the shops where healthy food is the tops,I need not the props of reconstitutes,resolutely defying the deep fat pan frying,I'm trying to detox but it's hard. Sweet Jesus please hear me,don't send me more chips soaked in soft lard and cooked in some oven, please send me the fare for a wheelchair to healthcare,I just cannot bear this no more. But being skinny's a bore and when I see pizza I want more and more,I want Indian food every day and Chinese to take away,Chicken satay a la Malay and oodles of noodles all dripping with oil. It's Sunday,the one day I can say what I like,the one day God gets bored and goes off on his bike for a ride,it's said he can't bide that contriteness,politeness,because he knows that we're sinners and there's never no winners and no one gets the pot,so just stuff your faces and eat up the lot,you've got **** all to lose and only weight you can gain,get to the counter reorder again,another burger and fries and hope nobody dies of boredom

Grace having been said we all tuck in
the lost battalions of the soul------- they fight on where-ever they are ,(they say) the lost lovers lie still as death on flamining hillsides wondering where the angels as promised just hap to be but you, my friend, are gone from here and who knows when you will dare show your face? chicken-lickin cowards, all. grubbing and grunting with the ******* smile still glued to the masks that are formed from being graceless and stupid in amerikka oh well its only few small steps to macdonalds or disneyworld a few small steps to the liquor store a few small steps and the pusher man will be there.com and coming forward with lady gaga videos and tales of the heros like michael jackson.com and the baseball scores and i will soon be dead and hopefully quiet but don't bet on it for the lost battalions fight on and on wherever they are even if they themselves don't know where that is

victory over ignorance day
I'm not always so bitter or angry or high... on life (and other things) I can be sad sometimes There is most assuredly occasions that the darkness brings... I'm sad that MacDonalds don't serve breakfast past 10 I can get down when I run out of alcohol (and cigarettes) at 2am A tear or two have slid down my face when the mouse that had it's back legs broken has escaped from it's trap and I have to give chase I've been known to weep when the hangover kicks in *Man, it's prevalence these days, is rife* That pretty much sums up nearly everything that makes me sad All the rest is just a byproduct of Life

sometimes... I'm sad
Brought up on Ikea,MacDonalds and see how you look, I see the round seeded buns of fat burger bums and the falling apart of furniture that you couldn't start,with instructions you can't read,go feed your face in that god awful place and get out of mine. There was a time when mums cooking was best.(lest we forget) as yet another chicken clucks and who gives a hoot or one flying,flux,it's all in the flux,we always knew that. This will be our ruination,the fatification (i make words up) of...oh what the hell,let's station ourself by the doors,eat chickens like foxes on tables from boxes and go with the flow.

Walking backwards
The old Chinaman is there again today, not a takeaway, it looks like he's there to stay and he sits with a look that could barbecue steak. I take some time and try to decide what he's trying to hide as he hides in the recess, but his stomach protrudes like some boil or an abscess so his hiding's in vain. I refrain and have done for several weeks now in asking him how he is doing, I wait while MacDonalds is brewing my tea as he waits and he looks at me curiously. But his eyes are long gone to a time, back when young, and it's not me he sees or my MacDonalds teas, I wonder what his name is.

The way to work
Some live to live and some just to die and some walk blindfolded but I want to know why,the river flows to the sea and doesn't stop at the shore,before the vastness of space was there vastness before or was it more of the same and are fairy tales true to the pixies who **** them,or are they just unpicked seams in the dreaming of children? Who raises the corn,who decides when were born,are we torn from a notebook,just pages to look at? Who decided to call time before time ever was,was it because they were bored,when you hit the floor running does it matter how fast and do we last longer if we exercise and get stronger or is that just half right with the other half wrong(er). Some people die without ever wondering why, and I wonder why, that is.

In MacDonalds everyone hears you scream.
Old tired and broken like some worn out shoe WHY? After all I served my country and paid all my dues Now all I have left is this torn threadbare suit The thanks from my country for doing my bit For the next few hours I'll just wander the streets If I'm lucky find a doorway, have a few hours sleep Food! Well at my age a littles enough Maybe a discarded Macdonalds or a hard stale crust YES, I served my country,  saw comrades die Now I wish I'd died with them, beside them to lie My only crime was to grow frail and old And who's going to mourn me as my body grows cold NOBODY because nobody cares

If the music don't **** you the brandy will, film of nicotine on the TV screen and the stale smell of socks emanating from the wardrobe, if the strobe light don't get it neither will you. I fight through dimensions to get your attention and you're ******* into a MacDonalds, 21st Century Box, proudly presents, the future or as near as we can tell it, 48 chicken nuggets and fug it who the hell would want that many? maybe 24 chickens? If the music don't **** you and Macdonalds don't fill you you're ******

My love for you......
The day of my first date. I had two dates. I thought I'd walk in there and be out in an hour He was early and I thought "what will this be like". Then he talked about everything. I don't remember the last time I'd smiled that much. Its all I did that day. 4 hours later, I'd cancelled my second date..... When I walked away you texted me and said you had a great time. And you wanted to see me again that night... To think now we've been on 5 dates and we talk every day.... Some how I made it to my second date.... He was nice, but I was on my phone. He put me on his bike. I thought I would fall off and I never saw him again. Because my first date was minutes away and wanted to see me again..... My third date He was nice. We had great wine, and I tried new food. I was far away from home and so happy.... I went home and texted my first date. Just two strangers far away from home. My fourth date. We walked along the beach. Talked about dreams and laughed and smiled. Had icecream and made videos. I still smile about you..... I told you I'd see you two years from then... I kissed you goodnight and I knew I'd probably never see you again. My fifth date. His eyes were grey-blue. And he was tall and so wise and for a moment I thought I'd stop running. And maybe when we stood out there.... You smoking your cigarette. I knew it was the end.... I almost wished it wasn't. My sixth date. He has that tired look on his face. Very often its like he is too tired to talk so he uses actions. He has that smile that makes you feel like the world is beautiful. His smile could light up a room. I envy his hair, he doesn't need a brush. He makes me believe that I can try... With him.... But we've been to dinner, the movies, Friday night games.. brunch....... I even decided I like techno music.... number 1... maybe I am starting to like you too.... My Seventh date. I see him and I don't know what I am doing anymore. But here we are.... Today we go to our 3rd date..... and I am a girl who doesn't know... But it’s easy to know when one minute we can talk a future and the next it can hit both of us that this isn’t an option. My 8th date. He was great.... we sipped wine at a balcony and talked about Starbucks and Macdonalds .... then we danced to music... two strangers dancing together far away yet present..... My ninth date. He talked about race and all things that crossed his mind.... sitting on my sofa pretending this was real.... I told you you were 20 minutes late... but you didn’t think that. Maybe this is it for this universe.... that’s all we got.... but I’ll find ways in which I can remember you.... after all number 2 isn’t so bad a number..... Then there is you. The beginning.... "Can I please go with you guys?" That is the first thing I ever said to you..... I think..... But you changed my life..... one kiss... One touch..... But then again.... it was one look.... the very first time I saw you. I didn't see your face, or your eyes, or your nose... I just brushed my eyes past you and I knew... I was going to do you.
