Best Injects Poems
The FixHe fills his syringe with poisoned words
pulling the letters one by one from his rusted spoon
They rise up through the needle in perfect order
"Disgusting" "failure" "worthless" "loser"
There in the cylinder they mix together
until they are a perfect black ink
Although he no longer sees the...

Blue Angels, Black Sheep, Monitors and the House of Random Penguins
“Blue Angels, Black Sheep, Monitors and The House of Random Penguins”
The womb
is scooped like
an over ripe melon
Time is the incorrigible felon,
the forgotten lost garden explored
overturned and raked,
neatly messed,
in more ways than 1,
never removed, not yet,
it would be too very...

The BeastThe beast is hungry,
The beast is free,
The beast is hunting,
You or me,
The beast is anger,
The beast is hate,
Injects your heart,
Damage your faith,
The beast is black,
The beast is white,
An encounter with the beast,
Not a pretty sight,
The beast attacks the weak,
It attacks your soul,
No longer warm,
Your heart...

Society's Invisible PeopleShe sat on the pavement as the world walked by
She's just another vagrant not a mum a daughter or wife
Claiming state benefits and living the high life ?
Sat on the pavement , a discharged mental patient .
She sat on a...

Getting HighGetting high is a state of mind;
and this altered sense
of reality,
can be achieved;
without chemicals.
Life itself is a natural high
free for the taking.
Running injects a "runner's high;"
a euphoric, feel-good,
shot of energy.
And a belly laugh is
like shooting up;
instantly lifting your spirit,
it leaves you feeling giddy.
Meditation brings you...

Where Youth Did Tread(An Addingham poem)
‘There! Where every curve
injects another memory.’
Analytic beauty that
nestled in verdant valley
allows the mind to review,
where archaic dry-stone walls
enhance the ancestral ghosts,
impeccable trees, nature’s
guardian to one’s heady days,
inscribed when lovers called.
Now historic brows lost
within the village face,
expressive meadows
from a bygone age did
grace now...

A Brief History of the Snake

With us yet, it slithers into Halls of Power

Her SorrowsShe's in the cut, with a different kind of fabric
She earns minimum wage, but her Instagram is lavish
Trust me I don't know how she keeps the balance
Probably got a married man who injects cash in her balance
That's why it's not a challenge
Until he gets tired...

DiscriminationDialectic differences injects bias preferences
Individual qualities overlooked for general stereotypes
Social grades increase to nourish systematic partiality
Contempt towards a people with a different ideology or mindset
Ringing the bell of vengeance towards any slight or honest mistake
Intentional neglect to their needs and serious wants
Minority becoming a classy...

Black and WhiteYou’ve maddened me to the core
You singed me with your ferocious fire
We’re opposites… we’ll never integrate
We can’t blend with each other…
Your love and I’m hate
We’re contrary to each other…
So don’t even think about
Getting us back together
Because without a doubt,...

What Is Your JobPainter paints with a brush and hooded mind.
Dentist extracts, injects with a pointed mind.
Mind of cacophony is what a singer has.
Orator hails, evading a faux pas.
Chef cooks with an aproned mind.
Scientist invents, minded with formulas.
Cartoonist strokes, gifted with artistry
Dubber voices over to cover up...

Good Night and Sweet Dreams of the DayA whispering word is a whispering void cantering over airspace. Clear but unclear. Oh the sheer detectable ideology of the fungal worm. Chitter chatter consume. Consumption is the eruption. And like a fine wine to a palate leaves no bereft anarchical wonderful wound. It leaves...

She Is the NationWho can live without a woman?
Who can live without ambition?
She is the source of all inspiration.
She is the sweetest of all creation.
She gives without any hesitation.
She fills the world with jubilation.
And injects our lives with sensation
She raises men and builds a nation.
She seeks no reward...

The Secret Place
"The Secret Place"
Inside
the secret place
we sleep it wakes
pushing nightmares away
poems it breathes
into burning flames
walking in
and
out the gate
torching black hearts
each one a post mark
to light the long way
Inside
the secret place
we sleep it wakes
breathing words between
our lips, it...

Haiku 1 - Bees and Wasps, Butterfly, Dancing Leafjostling in the garden
bees and wasps compete
for the flower's favours
perched on a petal
butterfly uncoils its tube
then injects the flower
a gust of wind
the dried leaf leaps up
and dances in the air...
