The early hours of a Wednesday morning in a small country town.
An 18-year-old boy struggles to sleep
He had pain so bad

They sit on their own
in their Hermit Kingdom
other side of the wall
singing their song 
entitled 
nothing to envy

peeling the skin 
away in generations 
it's worse than a famine
where colour 
is wrung 
from the inside out

emotive...

It was a glorious summer day and I woke up with the lark
Got my wheelchair ready and then headed to the park
I noticed a girl out jogging, with her dog down by the lake
And felt...

Perpetual Quandries of Dischord

Permanent irreversible Attatchment disorder
A lemonade stand at the Mexican Border
A traumatised disorganised old lady hoarder
The incriminating evidence on an old tape recorder 

Elements of discontent shivering through a crowd 
Firmaments of promises...

PTSD

Like rabbit in the headlight caught
I want to move, i know I ought
But quicksand stuck, I’m petrified 
My body still, arms laid by side
Stretched out on mattress, naked, soaked
From sweat in which my body’s cloaked
My eyes...

like darkness hidden underneath deadly white lies,
like throwing pebbles casually across The Lake of Tears
that reflect rippling rings rapidly racing outwards...

Have you ever been forgetful
When you're busy with a lot on your mind
As I do from time to time
Or just like me a scatterbrain

Like talking on the phone too long
And it ends up being a...

If soldiers could cry (2024 Updated)

I really want to know:
How does feel to be a soldier
And go to war?
How can you shoot 
Someone in the face 
And not ask WTF for?
Just for the greed,
Of old...

A February Saturday,
Dull and cold and wet,
A visit from my daughter,
That I never will forget.
“Hello dad, you’re looking tanned”,
“Oh wait, no, you are yellow”
“Get on to 111 she said”,
Before even saying “hello”.
Put on hold for...

HOPE

Her eyes were wide open, clothes all dishevelled and torn,
They had raped her brutally, taken her dignity away
The scars were there; forever to stay,
No amount of counselling could ignite the spark
She was always afraid of...

Hutus approaching my bed

i
Lie back, tilting my head
hunched as if tango 
mangoed or like quesimodo
ringing notre dame bells. 
The straps cradle me
pinned in a rollercoaster
belted in a fast car, 
braced and buckled. 

ii
Electrodes are placed
on skin-thin temples. 
Gently,...

And I can see that
But I really think that would be doing you an injustice

And who knows, maybe a relationship
Take it to a...

Dust descending
fills my ears and nose:
small stones loosened from the soft rock
bleed our faces and our arms......

the smell of this cellar

the echoing sound of this cellar
the rumble of this cellar
