A forgotten victim of the system
An untold story of black British history Throughout history our voices have been silenced But what happens When they take it further and murder us? What about those who were permanently silenced? How will they speak up about how they were 'welcomed' with violence? But I have a voice and I will speak it The stories Of the forgotten...

Sonnet for St David
The leek will sit with pride upon that hat; and, yes, a daffodil’s another plant. The two are often worn, so let us chat about St David’s Day – or Dewi Sant. This prelate was a Christian and we know he was a bishop and the son of Non, and grandson of a king, said to be so, that king, we’re told,...

Premium Member Salvador Dali - Moments of Transition - collaboration with David Kavanagh
Barren ground, (un)familiar shapes From restless dreams I try to wake A picture forms but cannot decide How to assemble my truth and lies Butterflies perch upon the lion's mane I escape from its jaws just to go insane Entering wagon wheels disguised as pens Only to draw from sand, more REMs Beyond my eyes glazed over and hazed Spill all direction-less ways I've...

Fala.. she jokingly calls me When my teasing's are too much The Joy of a platonic friend Is...

David sought a vanguard for revolution, The Black Panthers seemed the perfect solution. He built them a foundation, it employed his friend, Until she found fraud and met a quick end. Betty’s murder raised questions—who and why? An inconvenient truth his friends had to deny. When a jarring fact is a bitter cup Dave found that Marxists cover that truth up. He lost...
