Rolling round and round in my head.What are these notions I can’t put to bed?Remnants left over from the night before.Or are they so much more?I haven’t a clue and that is what irks me.Cause it feels like part of an unfinished story.While ignorance feeds my doubt in a loop.Playing myself as if I’m skilledContinue reading “Internal Doubt”

What is this mess that surrounds us?Have we dug too deep to escape the endless…Decay we’ve birthed onto our home.If so then things won’t survive the tome. Damnation written into our fated stars.Instead we bow to those in uniform and their bars.How short-sighted could we have been?Even a blind man could have foreseen. Ruin isContinue reading “False Dominion”

Every word you say fills me with a glowing heat.Some might think me crazed or a cheat.Do they have rights over where I go?No, they are spectators, guests in what is my show.While you are my the ying to my yang.If others overstep they’ll get a flash of fang.Over-reaction, quick to violence.To those actors IContinue reading “Presence”

You call into question behaviour.All because you wish to become known as saviour.Delicate hand upon a faded relic.Double take suggests you wish to sell it.Make a stack and flee the system.Reinforced by your snorts of derision.Poor imitations of disgust and outrage.Offensive is not something that’s ever phased.So to see it now I know its putContinue reading “Selfish Saviour”

Barren surface of blood red sand.Planet known for being the empires most prized land.Fuelled by spice dug from the ground.Too many noises result in a distinctive sound.Rumble, tremor, approaching worm.One false move will end your turn.Playing politics is simple by compare.Mostly they manoeuvre and deliver a hard stare.With eyes turned blue by exposure and time.NoContinue reading “Third From Canopus”

Wrath of the mountain.Mass of falling rocks.Screaming and shouting.Then come aftershocks. No malice or intention.Just nature unfolding.Fear and apprehension.Terror is sharp and holding. Bare hands digging.Cries from below.Not time for quitting.Hope starts to grow. First found is a loss.Pleas continue through dust.Everyone gives a toss.Efforts will not go bust. Hand reaches from debris.Screams of reliefContinue reading “The Mountain”

Its been ages since I’ve seen your face.Yet I still remember your sweet taste.Every now and then it returns to linger as if you’re here.Alas I know those times are confined to yesteryear. Sometimes I swear it can smell your perfume.It always has and will remind me of first bloom.Still I know I can’t goContinue reading “Violent Games”

A megalomaniac wants to hold the world in his palm.Purely so he can control what is said about them.Does that mean we should bow?No, it means resistance is the correct thing now.So stand defiant in the face of such oppression! Tyrannical racist wishes to conspire to take control.Onto our backs in response we should neverContinue reading “Ash And Peat”

You are the shining star I wish to carry on my back.The flag I want flying no matter the fact.Might sound strange or make me a weirdo.But you are unlike the majority with their ego.A delicate soul trapped in this rat race age.Locked in place and unable to turn to the next page.Does that makeContinue reading “Flower In A Sea Of Dread”

Welcome to the sideways parade.Days gone have been replaced by that which is frayed.A ticking time bomb with little remorse.Mounting issues continue to take our world off course. But no one listens enough to invoke change.Am I the only one that thinks this strange?Sometimes it feels like I’m alone.Fighting a tidal war that can’t beContinue reading “Treading Bleak Waters”
