Yours and mine
Your,
PhD
out-brains me
Tits and thighs
out-lay me
Mum and Dad
out-pay me
Elocution
out-say’s me
My,
Determination
scares you
Confrontation
dares you
Dazzling wit
impairs you
I’d
crush you if I cared to
But I don't
so won't
All life
is strife

July Collage Poem: 'Grit'
Blood on flashing dancefloors;
towards the courts of monochrome
our killer slouches home.
Time is running out, I'm suddenly aware
and the poetry flows -
and so it goes...
The beauty of grit is retrospective.
Strawberry juice on chin
swallowed in one breath
over a mis-shaped tattoo
Tattoos last longer than love;
ink is the blue kiss of death...
