Long Sculls Poems

The hearts of white men are silently fuming
The spirits of  angry widows steadily   grow bitter 
The bosoms of weeping mothers  open wide
While the relics of the past kept washing upon our...

SAD Seasonally Affective Disorder

Some are prone to depression in winter when days get shorter when
less light enters the brain through the eyes and thoughts become darker

I am also affected and when news gets explosive when...

The endgame 

And the cemetery was
nowhere to be found
yet was so present
in the shallow depth
the graveyard of the mind

No tombstone unturned
fragmented torn and twisted 
sorrow flowing down 
encrypted alleyways 
and Thanatos’ call 

Searching to imprint
coffin’s...

From stern to bow she’s strong, she’ll stand the storm, 
she’ll take it’s brutal pounding all night long,
and when the dawn comes shining thru, we’ll cast her sails,
and head her into December’s frigid wicked gail's,...

I'm here, a little Mermaid,combing my long brown hair,
away from Human Beings,away from the Great Harbour.
I'm here,your little Mermaid resting upon a mossy  stone,
Wishing to have feet which will walk  me to Your...

Jesus, I saw you hanging there alone
Like truth that needs neither props nor supports
Deserted by your studiously chosen apostles and
Disowned by Peter, James and his brother, the approved inner circle

Jesus, I saw you hanging on...

Falling, falling like the rain above our heads,
Breaking, breaking into millions by awful threats.
Show me how we should stand tall
Even after the highest fall.

Reach above what you might think - 
Would safe us if bad...

Complexity of human minds
Somber thoughts occupies slumbers
In the night the sound is deaf
Massless dreams useless thoughts.

In the day performed are dreams
Desolate, like deserts sand huddles
Heatrd to loss of purified waters
Heap upon heap smothering another.

Out of...

its a kilt and not a quilt we are free dangling souls

not out of kilter for we value balance and freedom

there is no hidden agenda as we battle opposition

with harmony and steadfast equilibrium let loose

Event that happened long ago,
The departure of a rainbow;
Because it had adorned the sky,
More than anyone could comply...!

He was pigeon among eagles,
Many played the roles of seagulls; 
His preaching pricked their hardened sculls,
They soon turned...

They stood poised to rise like sons
A collective of kindred spirits to wars
From this squadron pose they chose
They rose to face their foes

Arise like thorns from bulbs arose
Thrust their blades into their souls
Of war cries...

Lauren became paralysed suddenly overnight, 
When she developed firm transverse myelitis, 
An inflammation of the spinal cord, a huge fright, 
Which gave no feeling chest down, a mantis. 

Born 24 April 1998, she comes from...

crowded poppy field cover the trenches

red crowns hide bone meal and sculls

abundance disfigures the pain

and yet Field Marshall and Tambourine Major

demand endless encores


as if another take would enhance the applause

while puppets on war strings scatter...

Before Laurence survived bone cancer, 
Chemotherapy and everything, he swam, 
Competed nationally and internationally, 
But afterwards rowing became his gram. 

He was born on August the 29th in 1991,
And comes from North Yorkshire, moors, 
He...

I don't need mawkish photographs to see
the drowning rowboat tethered to the dock,
a withered seahorse clinging to debris
as umber water seeps through feeble caulk.

The cord grass will have grown up through the planks
to marry splinters...
