Fracturing

I fell in love with your broken.
I fixed you and then set you free.
Fractured in words left unspoken,
I am broken as broken can be.

Brain Rain

Wood burner, smoke choke,

Dog shite, bullfight.

Hashtag, manbag.

Anal bleaching, hate preaching.

Save the fox, change your clocks.

Prom queen, crime scene.

Chocolate fountain, food mountain.

Buy to let , insure your pet.

Cake bakers, bookmakers.

Dash cam, phone scam.

Raise the bar, electric car

Make your own, payday loan.

Lendlease , family feast.

Babestation, masturbation.

Homogenised, androgenized.

Male grooming, future looming.

Cold war, Godwin's law.

Online games, baby names.

Many, many many more......

Whatever

Older,
wiser,
richer,
poorer,
cleaner cook carer,
maid stupid,
rock back and forth,
in the basement,
fire burning,
fetch the engine,
deck the halls and check the malls,
all on a Saturday night,
fight night,
one last chance, 
true romance,
and every, dirty, secret,
deleted erased and buried,
gripped in teeth, 
the lies,
the lullabies,
the monkeyed eyes,
pulverise
the butter flies,
finger tips .com,
we are here to be touched.

How Is My Driving

Keep back

You are an object in my rear view mirror
You may appear closer than you are

Keep your distance

Sudden breaking

This vehicle is reversing

This vehicle is emptied overnight

I Am the Earth

For the contest, Any Poem, sponsor, Broken Wings, written 12/2/2015




A primal inertia has held us together. 
I dream of a time when we collided,
when we danced together in a molten tango,
a violent waltz of heat and fury.
As our heavenly bodies fell into each other,
we shone a light into the darkest of worlds.

You governed my forces,
shaped all I was ever to be.
A gift of enduring stability,
a womb, a cradle,
a playground.

but now,
a heavy force,
a heavenly force,

a gravity,
that which pulls us ever further apart.
I have all the power of this world but still...
...still I can not hold you.
With every passing moment you grow more distant,
Your face, as I will always remember it, is frozen in time.

But still you shine on,
You give light to the dark of my night,
You give hope to the life that I hold.

You are my companion in time.

You are my distant love.

I am the earth,

and you,


you are the moon.

My Piano

In my mind I can play piano,
such beautiful, heartfelt playing.
I know every note like I know all of your smiles.
I know every melody like I know all of your laughter.

In reality I can not play piano,
but I do see your smile,
and I do hear your laughter.

Short Change

We all have the power to change the world, but only all of us can change it.

Counteract Modifier

Ever falling leaves
my heart breaking
all the rules we know
how much to love
will you find me
you and everything
broken in two
hearts beat as one
last kiss 
me I'm yours
is the love I need
to say nothing.

Power

Black diamond, fools gold,
overpriced and undersold.

Falling vices, rising prices,
and all the things that we are told.

Percussive concussion, concussive percussion,
endless discussion.
 
A round of applause for revealing your flaws,
your sin serves to feed them their spin.
If you had our fears, if we gave you our hopes,
we'd devour ourselves from within.

TV eyes open,
radio heart beating,

random access mind,
hardware bones,
software genitals
organic interface,
