Hideous evil creatures
Attention seekers
Cowards who hide behind computers
Cold-hearted scavengers
Not unlike preying vultures

Childish and pathetic
Bloodsucking leeches
Inflated egotistical heretics
Unhappy with their lot
Blaming everyone else
For what they have got

Insecure reprobates
Void of...

Ocean Treasure
Oh ocean of that long-gone embryo
Careening stormy erratic, to pacific
Ever sculpting in navy-wavy trance
Atop your peaks diamond ambrosia

Troughs, they stripped fear’s heart
Rendering a wanderer, now braver
Enameling away sea-shine opaline
as Nautili curling...

At least, not that I was wild

Hated stuff that seemed to trend
Loving myself is all I've ever done
Never wanted a younger one...

to reap a withered and ageing crop

clenched so you may better feel the...

Each time she smiles, God blushes at the sight of his wonderfully created creature

Hailing the Horses
History owes a great deal to horses,
They have been faithful servants of mankind,
Once, notably, within the armed forces,
Where equine heroes are not hard to find.
A good horse was essential then, in war,
Those not too nervous...

Ode To Another BreathSweet sweet relish of death,
Unparalleled to another breath.
Drawing in a promising life,
And untying the blackened knots of hopelessness within.
Another second to cherish the beautiful gift of life,
Like your palms unlatched for the birds to...

Implanted on a natural temple,
Happiness for idyllic strolls!

of lessons in life and how to carry oneself.
