Welcome to the Bijou

Sometimes the creepiest places are old.
There’s a smell to them of stale nicotine
and rancid oil.

The denizens are often as ancient
as the peeling wallpaper.
The plaster cracks mirror
the wrinkles on their faces,
stale faces with 
down dropped corners.

Layer upon layer of age
ground in  ...

A Beautiful Woman
A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN 

Her face was a constellation of perfections 
She was ravishing; beautiful beyond condemnation. 
Her voice was like many water 
Yet, it's coo whenever she sputtered. 

Her gait was just so alluring 
No wonder men couldn't help but kept gazing. 
She trod on...

Premium Member Hope For Nessie
Oh, dear Nessie, how you captivate us
when you rise up within the Loch Ness shores.
You swim and slither just above the surface,
serpentine and solid to many eyes,
yet, still a myth in any reference book.

But what about the Giant Squid?
It too, a myth that started long...

What does innocence cost, you ask?
    It seems it's just a grand,
        For I know a girl who had hers sold

A cheating farmer called Teddy McClure
Thought that his wife knew but he wasn't sure
Oh boy she knew alright
Cos when he took a bite
Of his sandwich it contained pig manure...

Heavy Heart
Heavy heart 

Die  die
The fear in my eye
I can hide behind this badge
It will protect me and mines 

Is this how you feds think
Is this how you feds feel
You fear the color of my skin so using your badge makes you real.......

Real tough?

Premium Member It's All So Fake
All we are taught, just bold, brazen lies
World War Two?  It was all filmed in Van Nuys!
And yes, it is true
Biden's a Chinese Jew
So don't trust your brain or rely on your eyes

Reunited
She knew her life was through,
But wasn’t scared to die;
She closed her pain filmed eyes,
Her final breath a sigh.

Her husband took her hand,
And whispered, ‘ Welcome, dear.
It’s been so very long -
We won’t be parted here.’

Premium Member Knowing Kelly
The name Kelly means "bright-headed",
according to the internet.
A fine attribute that doesn't quite describe me yet
because, you see, I could not go to college
and be properly taught.
I came from a poor background
where a good education could not be bought.
So, I have no choice but to...

The Pink Elephant


As I drove to work one day
In amazement a pink elephant crossed my way
I was shocked to see her in the middle of town
With bright purple spots and wandering around

Oh she was not a usual sight
The police though didn’t believe I was right
Thought...

Judging Hypocrisy
Look at you
Oh so fashionably accessorised
In a demi-couture package
In your environmentally conscious style
Playing out ecological homage.

But bright red plastic buttons tinge your dress
iPhone resplendent in its fluoro yellow cover 
Television screen sized sunglasses
Your hair infused with streaks of amber.

Revolutionary or is it maybe avant-garde?
Your visionless...
