Long Full stop Poems

"The Crow Bar"

she said,

you can hear them sleeping
somnulent forget-me-nots,
snoring blithely unaware,
in neat rows between

ink injected lines,
their soiled lives
ploughed and 
turned over 
replanted
sunnyside down
expunged and 
wrung out

eventually,
not totally oblivious, 
they...

Shopping bags


In a concrete building, there lives a man.
He has not moved in many days.
There comes a knocking upon his door,
And he returns to his reality once again.

"The Forgotten Legion of Rose Thorns"



Reversing roll calls
the Anti-Hero 
jumps through 
burning hoops
instinctively

bathed in the magnum glow
designed to fire cartridges
with a kick like a field gun
a bloody victory 
is eventually won

lacking conventionality
novel and picaresque
placing bad...

"The Hidden Garden in My Winter Forest"

Traverse the path to the gate at...

Footprints in the sand.


It’s quiet now; it’s not like it was last night.
All the hangovers are asleep, they have never seen the morning light.
They are dreaming of last night’s fires 
And drinking away the days...

for fifteen minutes under lights

He went down not once but twice
in the same game with the same head

I was in love with him,
Without any particular reason or logic behind,
Just pure love. I blame the chemistry and the pheromones. 
I don’t know what he felt about me, and I didn’t care about that.

I can remember passing through
this town as a child,
stopping for a pie
on our way north.
Now it’s bypassed – barely more
than a clot lodged 
in the spidery veins of a map.
Most of the houses are empty,

PERSERVERANCE BREEDS SUCCESS

Jss One was an insult, I cried
Like time should hit full stop,
My breakfast was sweet without
Salt,
My parents tasted like this evil

We thrive finding freedom
to speak out
to dance around 
and sacred shout
to sing full-stop gospel

Outside our secluded cells
of dominant evolution
and protagonist predation theories,
desecrating aparta-schisms,

Having His MonoTheistic elitist
StraightWhite Capital-Headed Way

Extracting all polycultural Truth
