forget (Remove filter)
Average
The punishment of being average
Working hard to be insignificant
To be unimpressionable
Forgettable
Not memorable
Categorically credible
Always the candidate
Never the chosen
Always the nominee
Never the number one
Exceptionally unexceptional
“Good”, yes, hum-drum
A feeling unrecognisable to heroes
Even unknown to villains
With separate woes,
Those...

Previous skins
Five years ago flew by
Now, already remote
The rolling of the years
They’re already afloat
Your past self
Already a ghost
When you stand still
You begin to grieve your previous skins
Wonder why you had to forget and kill
Old personalities just to multiply new
So, you cling on to specific moments
Promise not to forget, you never will
But it is not uniqu...

The Tide Will Come Out Of Your Mouth
SMASH!
Every time the glass of your skull
Crashes into the fist of another memory
To crush you where you stand
Because another memory has broken you
Because another memory has entered you
Like intruders, they force their way inside
They punch their way into your attention
They invade your heart
Until you must look at them
All so that they can violate you again
They...

Never be forgotten
The metamorphosis
was a planned operation,
and everything they did
went as smooth as silk,
but what they didn't expect
was the abominable reaction
of the normally patient, decent people,
the bile and the caustic outbursts,
all of the hate that spewed out
into the space around them.
Shocked, they fled and hid in the hills
until the tumult had died down.
They coul...

Mid January
No one else can judge me
Only God who reads hearts
People have abused me
When I reach fake of the facts
If you believe you're the master
And you can judge and lead
Surely you lose the only factor
That keeps you faithful indeed
Leave me alone fair and simple
I have to forget tens of lies
You should break your false temple
Wake up please .. open your e...

Misplaced Memory
Minds mould cannot always bend to the will - Look!
A blur of surreal reality:
it’s vivid, a memory, a means
but travel through years
and maybe it’s a dream,
or the worst fear:
(for the youth with infantile stretch marks to hear)
Forgotten.
For the youths with flat ironed flesh and barely dogmarked ears,
what we all fear
is to forget.
Tell the boy with the newly ...
