Long Memorised Poems

Memoirs of one unloved

I hear them refer to me as “it” or “the fetus”

But, as strange as it...

They sit on their own
in their Hermit Kingdom
other side of the wall
singing their song 
entitled 
nothing to envy

peeling the skin 
away in generations 
it's worse than a famine
where colour 
is wrung 
from the inside out

The Psychiatrist


You make pleasant YouTube videos about things that you learned 
From books, countless courses, trainings
And what you heard from others.
And chiselled and smoothed your voice
So that it is as warm and pleasant
As synthesised music.
And...

As soon as I graduated at 17, life was definitely to be;

In the cradle of our candle light last night...
We settled and sizzled in the moonlight.
We danced through the dense of the darkest night.
Like a cutest couple we cuddled in the bubble of bonded bouquets.
Dined with...

When my heart could no longer illuminate,
I gazed towards horizons shrouded in blurry blackness,
revealing the agony of my sorrows to the moon.

Wondering if it would gift me a beloved
that reflects within my heart like an...

Childhood learning, knowing, knowledge gaining
Parents voices and actions all passed on
The learning process, each day memorised
The family group gathers at the end of the day
The kitchen table, set for five
Three sons growing, watching, learning
Mother and...

I am wounded

I looked out the window
The light, streaming down
Amongst the trees
Reflecting on me
 
To walk amongst the trees,
A simple pleasure
Fresh scent of pine
Mind, at ease
 
I heard birds,
shadows flying from tree to tree
My hand...

what’s the price of a poem
in cash, blood, sweat and tears
what experience suffered
how many months and years

A VW Beetle 
An unloaded thirty eight
In the passenger seat
And out through the gate
A briefcase of secrets
Chained to the wrist
Memorized instructions
From an unwritten list.

In the event of an ambush
Just pop five rounds in: 
The only...

Memories come in many forms
Books letters scraps of paper galore
The special wine glass sitting on its own
The glass held memories as lips touch its edge
Sips or a large gulp all well known
Your hand caresses as...

My world, as rosy as the daisy
Revolving around my moods, sweetly
Some days are high on creativity
Some days lag behind with adversity

My battles, the basis of my portrait
To win some I put forward my best trait

I will grant you eternal life,
Something I don’t have the power to give,
So long as you always look in my eyes
And never drop your gaze.
You look different the longer I watch you;
The more I take...

The book I could read every day;
you seduced me in such a way.
A romantic one, I must say.
Midst your covers, I yearned to play,
on adventures I wished to stay.

When my tortured soul was bleeding

life without water
could not ever be sustained
thank the spring showers

water cascades... rain
distilled... early morning dew
winter confetti

no water... no frogs
deathly silence... then it rained
the sound of splashes

all life dependent
some dance for water... it rains
sustaining splashes

AND BELIEVED IN THEIR FATE
