"scag" poems
Thread breaks the seams
as it dances along your fingertips and into the fabric
it takes form in art, not traditional or too abstract.
A modest and humble artform that you can call your own,
as it pairs with your gentle demeanor against the harsh
red light of the city.
Yes, the soft-spoken words of a tailor.
The velvet, cotton, suede.
Floral patterns to lull me
into a soft daydream.
An escape from the **** and the **** of a city, where
beauty is lost or forgotten or
crushed beneath the boot of the next abrasive king.
You remind me of a time gone by.
A rose-tinted past where I did nothing wrong.
I yearn to learn more of the tailor who gives me hope
in the place I lost mine.
A thousand voices stir and I wonder.
When again will I see you?

Two hours sleep
in seventy-two hours,
dizzed up in an empty pub
alcopops and cigarettes.
It's back,
is it back? Or just ****
It's the fog,
on my chest, panicky
and lonely sounding
a fog horn
lost amongst everything
no one cares, no one gives a ****
or is that just the drugs?

h.m.p phone cell poetry 10.07.18
to the government i credit
this idea is a shine
a reward system will edit
that is the most important line.
of course some will say hypocrisy
punishment has no smell
got to look at helping democracy
at present spice and **** is ordered via a cell.
mobiles are rife
going down is not this slavery
getting them in via **** strife
now we can just teach manners and shivery.
taken out a mega trade
phone calls are a currency
just like a village down grade
calls like poetry have redundancy.
this move gets praise that's maximum
the entrepreneur in me is clicking
poetry is read via a call that's premium
punishment to prisoners is sweet but sickening.
