Night Time Boy
It’s almost nine o’clock and its time to go to bed
So climb under your covers and rest your weary head,

He drives for all the passengers an Uber didn’t grab

My life is complete

As I look down to the ground
My target I have not yet found
Nor will it be, at least not by me

In my ejector seat
That doesn...

Premium MemberUp, Up and Away

...My old mate, Dan, has a hole in his roof
It’s really not like him to tell you the truth
He maintains his house so it’s sound as a pound
But I don’t know why he’s nowhere to be found 

Dan’s a wa...

Crash helmet cracked under the raw tempo of stagnation

Chequered flags waving but a motor running against the clock

Rocket Man : Still Flying

...Rocket Man : Still flying


It’s cold as Hell up here in outer space.
I left the old me way behind.
It’s hard to see that there’s another way.

An app i dont need

Premium MemberWhat Might Have Been

...Piles of regrets gather dust in draws,
                                        If only I had a feather duster.

Bubbling with mischief,   like a cackling witches brew 
At the time just  10  or so,  but that’s a long way back

Lower floors have slides 
And some have ...
