For his love life it was a massive blow

To the hospital fled poor...

In the deep spiked pine forests

On a walk you forgot you took

Snow up your knees

Twenty feet away

An enormous old house

Not abandoned, smoke from the chimney

Large windows, dark wood walls

A forest castle here for you 

To explore...

Many people have heard started to vent,
By doing it in the form of an argument;
Things occurred,
That were blurred; 
From Trump could not obtain his consent.

I sat and cried
The bleeding wouldn't stop
I wanted to say I was sorry
But I had already made the cut
I convinced myself to stay strong
I would cut until I finished the job

First I destroyed that beautiful...

Once there was dingo, rabidly mad as he could be
who thought he was a Bruce of a man by how he spoke

The first lamp cut
through lonely
shade, where liquid
black is interlaid
With moon gold
chequered starlit
white, for even in
the dark is light,
The evening wore a

As shop signs
see-sawed in the
breeze, along the
lane a distant
sneeze
From someone
scuffling...

The Lumberjack's Hard Days Of Toil

Where evil reigns, ‘n willful blindness is sovereign
Callousness, insouciance, cruelty shall reign
Decency, empathy, honor, integrity feigned
Citizens merrily fawn, whose rulers they cheerily deign

In the valley of tyrants, heroes are vanished
Comrades betrayed; poor souls fully famished
Cores...
