Blood Line
my family roots
flange to three generations 
stand on a tripod

the grace of values
fondued by humble elders
half here and half there

the hopping second
have tales full of humour
vanishing the blues

the out cradled babes
tow blood line of bold and old
exposing its veins

The Unsupervised Stop Sign
It was quarter after nine
When I clocked in on that stop sign
What an insignificant design
Yet it provoked desire 

Watching everything realign
Only one thing crossed my mind
Whilst everything roared tow that line
Two opposing thoughts intertwined

Once a beautiful sign
Now an unsupervised lifeline
Once a benign incline

Now a constant race against time...

Thoughts Unspoken
Speak your mind
You're opinionated

Tow the line
You're bought and sold

What is it all for
If nothing changes
And you just grow old?

Did you give up your dreams
At the expense of the norm?

You say that you're happy now
But your mirror no longer reflects

Now your contentment lies
In what society tells you to expect

No longer acting on what you feel is right
You've lost the battle
Without even putting up a fight...
