Down you go againFeeling lost withinCursing as you fallNever on the ballBut will you always be…So falsely melancholy?Trying to shift the blame…Onto anothers frameOr will you finally admit…That you’re the only culprit? Caught by the netStill so unrepententAs the excuses comeNever an honest oneSo as we sit and wait…You procrastinateA part of your game…In whichContinue reading “All On You”

Quest
Writhing doom on an eternal plainI shot the bullet for discrepancyLooked to the mark that loomed in the darkSaw a white deer with horns too starkA smile formed across the abstract skyThen came the howl of madness’ cryBut the end was just the startBack came the howl of the hated heartPicking at bones like aContinue reading “Quest”
Flakes
Soft flakes upon the lawnFloating down from heavenWhisked by the swirling windTo dance as they descendPristine under the rising sunWaiting for the children to comeHours pass before the sleighsBodies wrapped up against the minus degreesThe white blanket broken by the funAs snowballs are sent hurlingThe cries of joy are thick and fastAs they wish forContinue reading “Flakes”
Vitriol Lashing
Sinking into the endless pitWill you ever climb out of it?As you sing about the moonAnother cacophony at noonShedding tears onto the floorsLocked behind your prviate walls Pity for the selfish twinsYou name them heirs of nothingWhile the weeds weave and growAnother fit do you throwFrom on high the crows do callWaiting for the curtainsContinue reading “Vitriol Lashing”
Path To Tread
Yeah, this probably is a thing now. At least it is for the moment while I have additional stuff to post anyway. You want it back but it can’t go that wayIf it does we’ll simply breed the decayCircle the drain without a clueBecome ghosts only able to say booAid the rot that will neverContinue reading “Path To Tread”
Gone Away
You went away so suddenlyLeaving just a hole in meStuck with just memoriesThey never faded awayAs I searched the streetsCombed the hospitals and clinicsEven visited your old favouritesBut each one let me downYou were nowhere to be found Adorning posters on the wallsI swear I could hear your callsTurning round for disappointmentIt was never youContinue reading “Gone Away”
Confined
Why do things have to be so difficult?Artificial barriers of malcontentA hamster wheel we call developmentAided by consumer culture detrimentTrapped within our self-imposed limitConvinced that we should hold our spaceWhile encouraging only a slow paceBut is a rung where we belong?Or should we continue to strive on?Climbing up the endless cliffIgnoring whether we’re part ofContinue reading “Confined”
Flout
OK, this week there is no blurb post, but there is a bonus scheduled for Thursday. So I thought I’ll put one on Tuesday too. Do as I say not as I doBut who really are you?Liar, cheat, arrogant foolToo busy trying to play it coolSmug smile across your faceYou are an utter disgraceCop-out forContinue reading “Flout”
Cost To Life
When will you admit…That you hate everything more than a little bitWill it be when it all comes tumbling down?Or will you still plead that you know nothing?I have no clue but I know it will be soonYou’re going to erupt like a solar windScorching every single little thingNo care for the cost or theContinue reading “Cost To Life”
Assessing Nature
Have you ever stared at the leaves?Given study to how vines weave?Watched as the grass does grow?Or does it all mean naught to you? With vibrant colours of summers bloomThe taste of pollen continues to swarmSwollen pods of future fertilityTaken great distances across the sky Have you ever wondered how they grow?Or how far downContinue reading “Assessing Nature”
