Soldier
I’m here, in this terror.
Blood, blood puddles everywhere
like after a demonic storm of rain, but instead it’s human red liquid .
Splattering,
leaking and escaping.
More of it appears
at each second .
Tick, splat. Tock splat

Dramatic Verse
Gone and Hopefully Permanently Forgotten
By Stanley Collymore
Never speak ill of the dead we’re constantly and solemnly
exhorted regardless of who they are or the life that
they freely chose to live, as they’re no longer
around, is the lame and unconvincing excuse
that’s...

The Last Lambaste
Tim’s resolution surpassed all shadows cast upon him
they had grown longer over time and hell had frozen
Rain had relegated him to a trough of his own making
He sat in a muddy pit once ice thawed...

Incredulity
Incredulity
I draw in oxygen
The sweet and foul odours
The same as you
I breathe
And in its life giving rapport
I exist
Of blood exchanges in corpuscle energies
Transmitted
Maintains
Thoughts awareness and grasp
On immediacy
Existential
In its poetry
Life
But it is with a sense of...

A Recount and Recap of Lockdown Scenarios the World Over
Humans have long trespassed
and destroyed animal territories
Humans have poached
And selfishly encroached
upon animal habitats
cutting down trees to build
human habitations.
Now the tables have turned
Humans are quarantined in house arrest
while some lie sick in bedrest
So animals not usually...

This Is My Therapy Dead Friendship 10 of 11
Some go to a shrink or psychiatrist and jabber,
I do this anywhere anytime,
I express, pen press and feel bliss for free,
open cus opinions mean nothing to me,
I guess people don't matter cus people flatten...

The Uncanny Stranger
The stranger is strange, pariah, leper sounds offbeat,
Neither truculent, nor relevant, all destined to encounter the doomed relic;
The bizarre outlander, alien to stimulate the instant pulse-beats!
The uninvited hobnobber, one despises to welcome in routine...

From Darkness To Light
Earth element
Driven by instincts feral
Self-centred stance
An animal in human form
Gravity pulled me down
Material possessions
I seized by any means
Territorial behavior
In an imaginary cage
Yet in this density
In moments of silence
Love within stirred
Signalling God's presence
Water element
Lust and domination
Testosterone...

Some People Feel Owed A Favour
Used to be a team player
Took a protective stance
Learned they were advantage takers
as only I advanced
There I was lending my ear
left talking to myself
yet again I’m seeing clear
I have...

Feeling Meaningless
A completely non religious write, I think!
The universe is nothing yet everything, inward then outwardly led
has tried every configuration possible, peanuts to stellar nursery beds
Mixing this and that together, now it's growing inside our heads

Empathy of Elements with Ink Empress
When life parades a fine line
between alienation and rationality,
internal intruders of the soul shroud spotlights.
In my dreams
I'm playing charades with the grim reaper.
surrounded by selfish acts from satanic spirits.
Featherless angels of twilight need...

A Sultry Sensual Summer Or a Teenage Girl Unfulfilled
How I look back with regret
At that summer long ago
A sultry sensual summer
A time of sexual awakening
When I was on the threshold,
The blossoming of womanhood
And how I curse the time
I wasted on you
All those hours...

Pulling the Legs Off Ants
The trouble with small minded, self-centred bigots, is the inability to see the truth of the wider
universe, the one that doesn’t revolve around their pathetic little selves
To be so afraid of the reality of...

Katharine's Wheel
Katharine’s Wheel ( September 1996 )
No one should be asked
To sit next to your lover
Or have to hear
How he longed to touch her
No one should be asked
To bare betrayal
With a smile
And be the calm...

Babel Bagels
One day Gaia was doodling
with sharp twig, on scribbly gum.
"Note to Self"
These big-brained bipeds
are getting far too cocky for their britches.
All the dumb-arses
are becoming smarty-pants.
These bloody bipeds are building
bloody big Babel information towers

Life On Green Baize
Sure this is just another snooker hall
dark with that familiar smell, smoky stale,
emerald green baize field of play, cue ball
pristine white, cushioned top and bottom rail,
looking around table chalked cue in hand
nerves on edge competent...

Zephyr
Some express their pain,
some sacrifice it for others,

Only poets can turn words into poems,
so those who are not poetic
can feel them in a beautiful way.
