Philip Island Cowes in June 2025
2025.06.15 It was quite a while ago, I came here and wrote, "BB was not here" and "JJ is here On Queen Birthday 10 Jun 2024". These words were written on the sand On the the shores of both sides of the pier. As time passed on, JJ sat and watched The waves washed up onto the words, Slowly encroached, engulfed and wiped Them...

Premium Member Life isn't fair, as we would wish it to be under the clear sky
Life isn't fair, as we would wish it to be under the clear sky, And perhaps this is the first truth that silently touches our souls. Some are born with more luck, love, or unknown riches, While others fight with every step for a fragment of peace. But that doesn't mean you're cut off from another universe, Or that you're...

Life As We Know It
My heart you have captured, Now prepare for the rapture, The second coming is at hand. All the signs are there, This is not meant to scare, Ready to Make Your Last stand? There is war in the east, Yet the west seeks no peace, The media was getting pretty bland. The banks are all failing, Children...

Woke up this mornin', feelin' all washed out, went down to the local drugstore, for a bottle of Clout, the druggist he said, 'Sorry son, we're all sold out.' Woke up this mornin', feelin' all turned about, went to my...

Premium Member As it Should Be
I saw you today, in the wild brown eyes of a doe. She studied me with an intensity I’ve never known. I wondered why she didn’t run away. I heard your voice reflected in the hawk circling overhead. His power magnified by elegant grace, and I was honored to have you watch over me. I...

The case of lynching vs suicide
The case of lynching vs suicide A black man Hangs Lifeless Silent Eerie The only sound Is the wind thrashing around As it surrounds The black man Screaming loud Trying to get the man to make a sound The wind howled In pain In agony Watching as the whole town Laughing like he was some kind of clown The police never showed In the...

Premium Member As This River Gives, Rock a Bye, Lyrics
As this river gives, not giving a damn Emptying out the lake of hate, I am This ecosystem dies, but was it alive? Just surviving on dreams that I kept inside Confusion fills me, deep as this hole The sinkhole depths mirror my soul No reflections to see, nothing left to find Just hollowing cries, and thoughts unkind Saturated tears, muddled in fears A...

As we metamorphose
Trust your imagination, dream, believe, Take my hand, I'll show you land, that you cannot perceive. Join me as we take a ride, Not across the planet, but inside, Each creature, plant and stone, Inhabit them, and make them home. Burn with me in dawn's sunrise, Delight in our painting of the skies. We'll leap with gleaming flying fish, Soar, and dive, become a wish. Glide through...
