Long Focussed Poems

You are pulling me down like gravity
You can be so burdensome 
You are pushing me down angrily
You are dangerous like a lion in the 
spooky den unlike some
You got to build more self-esteem 
I have...

I notice everyone is focussed on what they’re doing
Doing, doing, doing, oh yeah…where you going, going?
I wanted you to stay around, but you’re gone away
Sick of the drama and the tears and anxiety my way

You got roasted the moment I walked away from your reach 
Everyday, I wish I could be at the sundrenched beach...
What about you practice what you preach 
Be very careful what you teach 
Because what...

Beate’s last dance?

She has the graceful air of a benevolent Queen,
Walking tall and fearless in the rain,
Focussed, yet completely relaxed and serene,
Even though, she knows her fear and pain
Cannot be unjust, bitter or mean 
And:...

Part 2 of 2

.........eclectic mangling with each dextrous touch, fine lines begin to smudge, 


reality blends with fiction, body becomes an instrument, instantly switched on, fingers-the intimate, 


high octave tinkering, pursed lips to the sky-the...

There's a whirlwind inside 
Of my head
I'm like bread 
Without butter 
But instead, 
I am like no other
There's a monsoon inside
Of my wandering mindset
I'm like a young child 
That gets extremely upset
I'm far from mild…
I'm...

Thank you for today, live and gleeful,
It's about the baby full of youth,
Born somewhat not the portal,
Although a star signed by truth.

Given to many, not just a few,
Shepherd common attended him,
Valid by the magi with...

we gather together, a hundred or so
stetching, warming cold muscles, just waiting to go

nervous anticipation, just wanting to start,
we collect our numbers, have a piss, have a fart

as our tummies stir with butterflies and angst

Childhood fanciful daring must softly be contained
Dispicable hovers inside cherub cheeked adorable 
Challenge for enamoured to create correct shape 
Administer discipline with compassion entangled

Thoughts melt and distil under a green/blue flame,
Swirling down, separated out and mixed.
If you’ve seen it, it’s broken;
If you’ve heard it, it’s shredded;
If you’ve read it, it’s rewritten.
It's really quite unlikely to be fixed.

You’re cutting...

It’s an enduring strain,
	and a constant fight,
to remain focussed,
	when failing sight,
defeats my writing
	of poetic lines!

of what I’ve written,
	for all is blurred.
Then angst prevails,
	with curses heard,
as I look in vain
	to...

Goodbye, Odie

My little old cat is dying.
His steps are awkward, eyes unfocussed
and he cries when he can’t see me.
I’m not sure I want to be in a world
that doesn’t have my tabby Familiar.
I am feeling...

Just a few years back……
Beady doe eyes, lips beautiful lilac,
Dimpled chubbiest little cheeks,
Awesome twin ponies, the cutest chic!
There sat my mom with her friend, rhyming alphabet.
Swinging legs in black ballerina shoes, pretending to be alert.

Just...

desperate for her to rethink,...
