Heart
"Heart"
Deep fissures formed
in the cracks of
the nowhere place
where time leeched
bleeding claret
through the green
veined blues
protean bit by bit
the flesh disappears
prematurely 6ft under
mulch for rebirth
the subcontinent
conscientious conscience
inward reaching
the divine central tableau...

Ten Years, Somewhere In Their Lost Neighbourhood
“Ten Years, Somewhere in their Lost Neighbourhood”
Of course,
he said, like a god,
there is no course,
one must simply go with the flow
the penumbra stands waivering its existence,
a kind of deactivation, fuzzy borderline hanging,
backing the art...

Burnt Aqua
"Burnt Aqua"
I can taste the sun
on my tongue
it spills down
my throat
like burnt aqua
healing the beating frisson
I am ebony inside
shading in my shadow world
some somnolent soul
waking from slumber’s dream dance
a small death in life...

Blue Angels, Black Sheep, Monitors and the House of Random Penguins
“Blue Angels, Black Sheep, Monitors and The House of Random Penguins”

is scooped like

Time is the incorrigible felon,
the forgotten lost garden explored
overturned and raked,
neatly messed,
in more ways...

Her Ever Changing Moods, the Rapture Reprising
“Her Ever Changing Moods, the Rapture Reprising”
Lavender seduces symmetry
in her ever changing moods
slips into something more comfortable
a swollen tangerine sky

the blues of her violet harbour

Oddly not in a far far a way suburban

Nine Seventeen, Pm
Lying in bed, the light of my computer bright
against the still images slowly changing on the silent TV across the room.
Despoiling the image,
nine seventeen, pm
stands out on the bottom of the screen.
My tired head resting...

Red Door
"Red Door"
love opens not
like a red rose,
it caresses you
slowly,
entices you in
holds you
hard and fast,
like a scarlet poppy
opium sweet
inviting, promising
till death do us part,
the elusive everlasting
L'amour est enfant de...

Lead By Faith
I know where my heart is.
Why do I feel so torn apart?
Maybe I should get back to the start.
At a young age this girl had me sparked.
Me, having girlfriend after girlfriend.
Her, having boyfriend after boyfriend.

Radio Days
I reckon I'm revealing my age when about radio days I pen,
But I fondly recall listening to our Philco radio 'way back then.
What wondrous tales, mysteries and pure comedy from it flowed,
By simply tweaking the...

She entered my life’s garden.

On Visiting Shakespeare's Birthplace
In reverence I cross the boarded floor
(This hallowed chamber I near fear to tread)
And glimpse the ancient manger, oaken carved
Wherein John Shakespeare’s babe once laid his head.
I see the boy within these timber halls

Lifting the Fog
Little crystals fallen angel tears smooching ground;
Instills cooling touch among grasses, buds and trees;
Facets rolling ambiguity ~ mystery;
Twirls then twines closely rush on branches bounds;
Inches white eerie cloud rhymes hang rest at key;
Nailing anyone to...
