Our riper sniper
Viper and pied piper
Didn't want to budge
Depravity of sporting gravity
But given the nudge
So off he did trudge

Still got a grudge
The king of swing..conker on a...

God's Kind of Poetry

your mood and unsettled ways, meld with mine.

as weary as the soot smudged cheeks of urchins.
Bruised in hues at once fresh with pain and...

Schism
She snores under Night's somnolent veil,
Far from quiet throes of his teetering sail;
Her pulses come and go in silent throbs,

our childish ways have bloomed into a blight
the roots we set, now gnarled, so pained decry,

Mighty Dawn
Disregarded darkness acquires a recognisable form
With light, our sight deciphers
Bestowed components rewritten by reassuring dawn

Renegade dimensions drink their new found palpable
Given shape...
