Thats Life

Earth quakes, hands shake
Bone breaks, piss takes
Story's end, new ones start
We click unfreind, we fall apart,
Blood boils, tempers flare,
Light to dark, we cease to care,
They look at me, they see through you, same old **** it's nothing new,
Be unique and be insane,
Be yourself and play the game,
Tear a rip in time and space,
Leave your mark to suit the case,
Dry your tears and open your mind, search for something hard to find,
Anger, hate, love, joy,
Smiles reveal the real McCoy,
Cogs turn and life go,s on,
Open eyes that learn from wrong,
Brakes fail, crash and burn, 
we stand in line and wait our turn,
Words of wisdom, pierce your soul,
Call me butter, I'm on a roll,
Pages turn, we get in rutts,
A journey full of paper cuts,
Story's in tales, short and tall,
Try telling me, I've lived it all
Slugs wishing they where snails,
No suprise, this is wales
Face your demons, steal the show,
Break the mould, finger the crow,
Run like a bath or butter my bread, if you want a chat........il be in the shed!

Your Having a Giraffe

Just a normal Sunday sitting on my chair
When all of sudden in walked my auntie uncle Claire

What the hell you doing barging in like that??
He said your not going fu**ing believe it? I just ran over your Cat

I said the only pussy in this house is my other half,
We played a few drinking games and i beat him at charades
He soon ad enough of that tho so i  pulled out deck cards then he stared moaning reckon the games i play are hard.

Well i had enough of his lip i couldn't take no more
so rubbed his face on cheese grater and now hes bloody sore.

Things I Like

The smell of outside after the rain
Baggy jumpers
Books you cant put down
Making people smile
Feeling loved
Songs that relate to YOU
The smell of fresh bread
Thunderstorms
Laying in bed listening to the wind and rain
Saying what you feel and feeling what you say
When me and my sister was younger and mam giving either the bowl or spoon to lick after making the angel delight for a trifle..

Crazy Cat Lady

Crazy cat lady as I don't like cats, but as I've got older I have whiskers to match. I see men as they see mice little sneaky but taste very nice.

Gargle With Jelly

Gargle with jelly 
Said my little nephew lenny
While making car noises 
Watching the Tele
Wanted to try it but he wouldn't let me
So I got a big stick and poked his fat belly

My Bestie and Me

My bestie friend is always in my heart
Knew we would from the start
We clicked and nicked.
Sucked and swallowed
Crazy days and nights that followed
Nina and Ma’s and pinching cars
and having carverys down the starr
People say we both berserk that
 Lisa-Jane Costigann and Rachel Ruthless Turk

Home Planner

You cant make a home out of humans,
My life is not a fire to keep you warm
My arms arent walls to protect you
From your own internal storm
My heart is not a light switch,To turn on when you please
I cant carry your weight of neglect because il buckle at the knees
My legs are a solid foundation,But they not yours on which to build
The holes in my heart can fit both of us,But you cant decide how they filled
You cant make a home out of humans,I wont let you in if you just knocked
And if you keep using my heart as a doormat,The next time youl find that its locked
