My spirit meets my body when I pick up this pen. Does truth always win or should I go again? The beat goes on, as I watch the man in the Union Jack sing. I picture Nietzsche dancing and dream I am a King. It’s once again just me and you. So this poem I’llContinue reading “Dead In The Water”

Alone
Where we went he was never too far behind. Lurking in the shadows, attacking in the night. I cannot drink the blood of snakes and survive. Only you, can search your own soul. In his pain Cain was rejected, I could never reject you. Then he killed his own ideal, killing everything. I want moreContinue reading “Alone”
I Wonder
There’s a light in your eyes. Your soul, in this life has not yet died. Though how many times, have you pondered it, and cried? We are fallen fruit of the same tree. I hope God forgives as He looks down tonight, on you and me. Life it has its battles, this is your war.Continue reading “I Wonder”
Long Grass
She is the wind in the long grass in which I hide, blowing me free.
Awareness In The Dark
I think of you still, with just enough sour to taste the sweet. In a solo adagio movement the memory of you is never complete. I scream your name in silence and hope you hear me. From these marshlands let it be. I remember you as perfect, perfect isn’t true. It would be if IContinue reading “Awareness In The Dark”
As The Night Sets In
With balloons and union flags lets meet. We’ll sing and dance in the street. But tonight, let me see and hear you. One knee still on the floor. He, like him, are not with us anymore. My girl, I have not left you behind. I’m waiting for you to overtake me. The battle is inContinue reading “As The Night Sets In”
Seville
A miracle splashed from out the blue sea. Dabbed dry with grattitude, as a melody played, beautifully. Seville now 180 minutes away. Smudge, I now know we can fly. I didn’t have dreams when I was young. It makes me won’t to cry. Through all the suffering and pain. It’s hard not to think likeContinue reading “Seville”
We Felt The Rain
When darkness faced the deep, we felt the rain. Your heartache wiped my tears. Introduced through our pain. I put my faith in that smile, unsure of what was to come. But God watched on. I saw His throne inside the sun. Their vision blurred with lies. Though not our eyes. Our eyes will seeContinue reading “We Felt The Rain”
The feast of St, George

Never to recant his faith in the Lord. Advanced, gifted with the sword. Soldier of the Christ. Fought courageously in belief. compelled evil to hell as angels roared in raw relief. Onwards to the realm. Converging from afar with Godly squall and brush of helm. Under his pennon they…
Night Sky
I stare at the night sky. Beyond the abyss. Patterns produce beats calling me into action. Shedding a light into my soul. Sparking the reaction. Good and evil crossing fine lines. I now graft like I’m dancing. Embrace responsibility like rhymes. There’s victory in a rock pile. Smash, smooth and stack them. Offer them andContinue reading “Night Sky”
