Hit and Run - TRI
He left the house in disarray
When cautioned flew into a rage,
A brat he was who got his way
This lad was spoilt from a young age.
When cautioned flew into a rage
And uttered words best left unsaid;
The mother cried and tears were shed.
A brat he was who got his way
And treated all with disrespect
His bad behaviour went

Holding Back Tears
They laid her in a tomb, only the bagpiper and I.
The Scotsman, with his pipes, played a dreary dirge,
I stood tall, no tears just intense anger.
A haggard breeze flowed around the verdant trees,
Ruffling the dreary flowers that adorned her tomb.

A House Once Stood
along the edge
of the hustle
and bustle
of the highway
stands a set
of weathered steps
that break
at the horizon's fold
visions burn
within the dawn
of memories
in crimson pools
atop the steps
as i recall
more youthful days
a rush of sirens
beneath the hush
of october's dusk
with sanguine flashes
against the old stone home
its black and white
beaming back
in blurs
through misty air
where rain mingled
with tears
from the corners
of my eyes
as

Hit and Run
It pours out of her
A river flowing into a sea
This isn't salt mixing with water
This is liquid mixed with cement
And it turns from pouring to drips
Thick and firm with time
Time.........this is time's fault
If it hadn't taken long to show her the truth
Truth..........this is truth's fault
If it hadn't taken long to

Hit and Run
It came over the hill with all wheels in the air
Soon to be followed by an evening prayer
The kid at the wheel was a can short of four
The police would be knocking on some family door
The kid at the wheel, nineteen true years old
Coming up to twelve, by the police I was told
The smell on

I never had the chance to meet my Mummy
She was killed in an accident … they couldn’t save her
Hit and run that’s what Daddy says
Daddy cries when he talks to me about her
I never had the chance to meet my Mummy
She died from her injuries
The doctors did an operation and saved me
Daddy cries when

Hit and Run
Hit and run
Crowd on road
Siren of an ambulance
Hue and cry.......
A speeding car that hit,
and poor man died
on the spot,
Rather than a rescue
or offering a help,
The driver chose to run.
Lifeless body
Amidst pool of blood
As if in deep sleep........
Blame who ?
Disrespect for life,
Irreverent attitude,
Inhuman behaviour,
What if someone else ran
After hitting his own dears ?
Introspection

Hit and Run
When you think about it,
it goes way back--
this tempting sweet rejection
of regret, this ever-coveted
capacity to scream at circumstance,
"Oh no, it didn't happen.
I can outrun this now,
before it plants itself into reality."
...and then this devious marathon
has one more trick to play,
and slyly moves the finish line
away.
Such thinking tempers righteous outrage
just a bit. Perhaps we might just
muster

Hit and Run
A hit and run
A masquerade
It's just my lot now to be played.
A little daft
A bit too large
Never one to just take charge.
Way too kind
And silent too
Perfectly convenient for passing through
Go ahead
Try it out
This girl feels pain but she won't shout
Hit and run
Have some fun
Don't look behind you when you're done.

Hit and Run
In the brain of a maniac
There lives a small child
Soiled and hungry
With a die and jack
And a thimble that rumbles
He left his leg in Seattle
On a bridge in the rain
Down low on the mainstream
Down low in the water
Swings a rope made of hemp
And twigs for a ladder
The place it must seem
Is for a murders
