DeStErNaTiOn UnKnOwN

Still l am searching for some explanation
      The deepest corners of my mind l now roam
       But not wanting to make any real reservasion
       I ask is anything ever really setting stone?

       I am trying to form some sort of foundation
       Between mind and heart that l can call home!
        Perhaps though now it is still the realisation
        That this mould l've not yet fully outgrown

       Or could it just be that my only real limitation
        l am still too stuck within my comfort zone
        Whenever l am asked what is my destination
        It feels as of yet though the great unknown


             Abstracts from poem 2007 where do l go from here

A ReAlItY uNrEaL

Stuck it seems in this bottomless pit
     Her life through the eye end of a needle
     What's now become a life time habbit
      For which she'd do anything even steal
      
       But l don't understand ;as l don't do it
        So could not know how she dose feel
        When she tells me that she's lost her hit
        Because it's now started to conjeal
   
         Though at times l would have to admit
        I don't blame her as much those that deal
          I only wish there would be a day she'd quit
          As even now this reality that seems so unreal


          A part two prequal to poem A STARK REALITY
            About a friend ex though l could blame government l
    Letting this go on for so long

PoEtRy

A source of mental therapy
        This has become of mine
          Though its momentarily
          It makes my world shine

          I don't know much about poetry
          Weather profound or borderline
           Through times of adversity
           All I have at any given time

                 You could call my history
                That is put into this rhyme
                Perhaps the other side of me
                Just a little creative in design


                  written 2009 2010 updated part one of a two peace write
                     expressing what writing is to me 
   thank you to poetry soup poets for inspiration over last few years  xx

Mother Earth

And now a massive hole in the ozone layer
Global warming, not really mentioned before
Like all the wild life and all of the agriculture
Fossil fuels were burning, destroying the core

Rain forests now fast becoming waste lands
Polluting the atmosphere with our toxic waste
And to think all of this done at our own hands
Before long there won't be any human race

Change's in the weather, changes in altitudes
And this only contributes to famine and disease
If we're so clever why not change our attitudes?
Perhaps were blind to it all, no one then see's

That the situation is only going to perpetuate
We are warned by mother earth, mother nature
We will one day pay for the damage we create
Is it worth doing something now? rather than later





note  ................
AGAIN A BIT MORE OF A POLITICAL AND UNIVERSAL ISSUE A BIT LIKE THAT
OF WORLDS STATE,  A JILTED BENERATION , AND ELEMENTS OF LIFE
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
this I did mention  brefliy in the original version of worlds state but something 
wanted to write about seperlety  similer to worlds state in the fact a never of many 
issues that needs adressing though I do think the goverment has the power to do a lot
if they wanted to instead of dictaing these so called public school boys
why was this issue not adressd years ago in the fiftys sixes so on 
the war cant be helping to the atmosphere


NOTE TO READERS OK LIKE OTHERS THIS WAS ON HERE BEFORE FELT A BIT TOO LONG DRAWN

                                                                 BUT WE HAVE HAD PLENTY OF WARNING

        I dont kn ow to much on this subject so lously put togeather  .....................................

If I Could Rap

If I could rap, it would probably be about how the people feel
Not just any old crap, you know something with more appeal
Maybe this and that but something thats a little bit more real
Talking of the less well off, not the ritches of all the toffe nose

You might scoff, but not refering to women as *****s and hoe's
Some might cough, I could have people in stitches who know's
Yo! I might not be as thick as I look, one of those simple minds
Rifmic?, I don't know, is there a hook, read between the lines

Some might take the mick, I'd better then duck at these times
Talking about adversity and emotion, talking you are in rhyme
Kind of like poetry in motion, expressing yourself in every line
Discussing all the anachy and comotion happing at this time

Trying to get a mesage across but in a different kind of speach
Talking about faith, hope and loss, getting to those out of reach
Some probably could not give a toss, but I'm not one to preach -
like the future the present and the past tense, not any old crap

It would not be the sort to cause offence, not just this and that
It would be something that made more sense,oh if I could rap
      
         Written 2006 between july august probably to many cylibals
                           just playing with words  some words lines
                      became apart of poem I wrote called no deeper meaning
          written 2008 which is kind of like an introduction to everything else Id wrote
                                   and a much better write

Mother Earth

To think what we have done to this plaint
And now it is fast starting to lose it's worth
But we have been warned by mother earth
Just look at the mess we have made of it

At one time we questioned global warming
Now something that's constantly talked about
Fossil fuels burned , at an extreme amount
The fact that we have had so much warning

Now there's a massive hole in the ozone layer
Yeah I know this has all been said allot before
But still destroying everything right to the core
Like all of the wild life and all of the agriculture

Rain forests now fast becoming waste lands
Polluting the atmosphere with our toxic waste
Before long there won't be any human race
And to think all of this done at our own hands

Change's in the weather, changes in altitudes
Which only contributes to famine and disease
Perhaps were blind to it all no one then see's
If we're so clever why not change our attitudes

Or the situation is only then going to perpetuate
We have now been warned by mother nature
If we don't do anything sooner rather than later
We will one day pay for the damage we create 



AGAIN A BIT MORE OF A POLITICAL AND UNIVERSAL ISSUE A BIT LIKE THAT
OF WORLDS STATE,  A JILTED BENERATION , AND ELEMENTS OF LIFE

Web of Deceit

Trying not to surcum to her feminine charm
As she just fills you with a false sense of belief
Though lustful eyes when she grabs your arm
It is only then do you see her fangg liked teeth

To her though your weakness is your vonrability
But she dose quite often go for that type of guy
The ones that she can consume more quickly
And then you are just another left high and dry 

I'm told she has done the same to many a fellow
Watch out if ever this girl dose come your way
As shes like the female spider, the black widow
And you to her are nothing, other than her pray

She looks for anyone who will quech her thirst
She's nothing more than a lire a theif and cheat
You could be the last but defernity not the first
To have been caught up in her web of deciet.





Note this an idea from an old write I had called devious her name 
Wanted to alaberate a little bit more on this trying touse metaphores 
but also at same time keep simple

Knowledge

Knowledge is always a useful tool 
And every one of us can easily obtain
Whether it be collage or even school
It’s about learning to excise ones brain

And often referred to us as scaffolding
  That is a platform for a solid foundation
When we’re out there and gaffe ring
   A whole swarm of vital information

That is the infrastructure on which to build?
  All of your hopes, dreams, and aspirations
A mixture! Too, finding your place in the world,
 If not bombarded with so many distractions 

   More easily recognised, thoughts and ideas
  Let’s face it I mean every one of us has some
    It’s about learning to use our eyes and ears
    If we took the time to expand our cranium

   Ok Perhaps not quite to the point of strain
    But learning to think a little more refined
  Use our thinking caps if not a runaway train
   If we try not to have a one tracked mind

  Predecessors will tell us what to think and do
  Very little in the way of varied subject matter
But they are guesser’s life a learning curfew?
I must emphasis one that dose build character

Knowledge is power; look at the books we read
   Be inquisitive it’s all about getting the know
Is there a thing as average if the will to succeed?
     Then there is no doubt that we can all grow






With this I was mearly giving my view on those small minority
Who choose to p there life up the world and have no sense of direction
Or any enthusiasum but i think no matter whether you learn from life
............................................................................................................
The literer we read whatever it may be we never stop learaning
And we recognise our selfs and others more  better understaning

Days of Colour

Môn, day I see as red,
Not much Fun but Hay get out of bed
Better Run I'd Say full speed ahead
Suppose to be sun today or so they said

Warns you to stop when your in a rush
Also when you are hot or you too blush                                                                     

Tuse,day I see as orange
I read the news, again I cant help but cringe
Bad case of the Blues I'd Say why I whinge
Have a snooze stay in go out on the binge

Also the fruit that taste like an apple or pair
When gone, still a trace lingers in the air

Wens,day I see as beige, Depends Hay -
I feel like a hamster I say I’m in this cage
Gone are Friends old and Grey, a new age
Tens to be where I Stay the mid week stage

Also the day I was born yeah the day of woe
Another early mor'n, again I'm on a slow Moe

Thurs,day is what I see as brown
Gets on my Nerves if one dose Say don't frown
One Observes, if you Stay to long in this town
Nothing really Occurs, and Today I'm down

Though black and white are more a shade
An insight to my thoughts the way there made

Fri,day is what I see as white -
And the Sky, Hay for once it's now bright
I Cry, I'm in Disarray now it's all in my sight
And High people stop and Say are you alright?

Why are you not all left?, or in the middle
Are they death? and again I'm talking dribble

Satur,day I always see as yellow
And That I Pray will be a lot more mellow
tit for Tat, will They ever get on this girl and fellow                                                        co
Have a chit Chat on the phone if one dose Say hello!                                                     p  

Why these colours, still my thoughts are numb
I ask why not any of the others, in the spectrum?

Sun,day is what I see as black
I wanna Run Away and never come back
It's not much Fun stuck on a one Way track
Please get me a Gun I'd Say or some Prozac

Used to be a day of peace when feeling tense
My thoughts cease or reflect on weeks events


Funny enough I do see ecah day in these colours
just adding on top als a little bit of humour
there was a saying about tusdays child is born on such and so on
I supose what inspierd me

written may june 2012 by myself david scott,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I did have idea for this write along time ago back in 2001 2002
just so much going on in head at time i supose

NOTE WITH WORDS BROKEN UP MON  DAY FUN DAY ECT
ADDING ON TOP A LITTLE HUMOUR REEDITED

The Moon


The moon in terms of mythology
The moon goddess I'm referring to                                                                
The moon in terms of astronamy                                                
The moon that’s facing planet blue       
The moon the natural satellite  
The moon within earths orbit                                         
The moon giving the dark light
The moon  always in transit         
The moon an gravitational pull
The moon and mans many trips
The moon at times half, then full
The moon rarely a solar eclipse
The moon keeps the same face                  
The moon reflected by the sun
The moon that’s in outer space
The moon in our solar system


note decided to keep poems as single versions as some alredy on here 

This spare of moment idea I wrote a year ago still been wondering whether to put on here
wanted into add to it but s=not sure where to go with it 
when I was writing elements of life and mother earth
