little bit like reshuffling the chairs to fix the decay

Story 

I pull the dusty well-worn tome
Down from the high shelf in my home
Now blow and scatter all the flecks
As children gather, craning necks.. 

Anticipation glistens in their eyes
As if a fairground vendor's prize
Is handed...

BIRTH OF A RIVER (b)

Have the vision,
to climb the mountain top.
You have the strength,
to navigate life.
Through planes, valleys,
ravines and rugged path.

The treacherous slope,
of the mountain face.
Conquer the pinnacle. 
Look below the planes,
ravines and valleys beneath.

And...

Separate Roads
Dusty clouds are isolation 
Confusion obstructs my view
As I travel back roads in lonesome 
Searching for the missing clues

Worlds away by barbed-wire offences
I need to be back within your presence
To the...

So, it starts years ago, with protests in the streets
People allowed to lay on the road, block traffic

Upon my sunshine when yesterday rains
Dwelling in my present uninvited
Clueless of today's closing arguments,
The joy of tomorrow my new-dawn claims

When I can sweet-talk to portrait of love, 
And paint my...

Threatening to rain down a torrent of pain.

Portals Into The Mind
Don't knock me for opening doors
that lead to new
& different perspectives
We're all perceptions peering from
the inside out while
being viewed by other aspects
of ourselves
Shells of former selves fight for 
relevance as the new
arises with a higher
intelligence

Grandiose
What if I don't want the 
smudges off the shields? 
Why should I seek what

Life and Everything in Between
Every moment we have, it’s not ours to idle away,
It’s not ours to cosy in slumber,
The night is not faceless,
And the day is not merely a superficial series of events.

Trying to move the mountain, a daunting task I faced, 
Only a few pebbles moved, the rest firmly in their place.

The clock strikes four;
I’m never like before;
I’ve learnt to take life’s drink
Up to the lees from the brink;
Multiple layers of joy

In the midst of others;
I found life’s new colours;

Through the mind, she can go back in time,
She can unravel webbed mysteries.
