There is a lion by the water, the green monkey eyes its prize, communicating fear and mis information, it's the origin of lies.

It's the face of imitation, the mimicking of a warning cry, the art of the done deal by deception, without the answer to the question why. 

It's the Code of Hammurabi which I see in play today, the one rule for the law makers, while the others stand in line, obey.

I love these places, the eclectic mix of tongues and stonewall faces, the words,  the prose, the poems, the stories that are told, unfold.

It's fully feasible that we are fish out of water, swimming against the tide the storm can swell and drag us under, a raft of spoken words behold their wonder, leading to calmer shores through rhyme and reason,  lapping against dry sunkissed lips, parched, t...

Headbutting life, dizzily I fail, the dog that walks beside me wags its ominous black tail, headbutt, headbutt no sense does prevail.

Scratching around, in this slightly disenchanted one-bedroom brain, an adolesce headbutt sees me sentenced to a life lived in vain.

Banged up in this grey matter, the cell doors repeatedly slamming shut,  thinking of a way in life, that I can make the cut.

Portraits of you now, portraits of you now, portraits of you, snap shots of life.

I roll up the window, so the dope smoke doesn't linger on the baby's chest, I fix her hair, I stroke her face, I kiss her forehead and, I adjust her vest, don't worry, she's comfortable and clean.

Staring across the rooftops now, and down onto the empty lamp lit streets below, the night has yet to yield the sto...

A trickle of sweat, runs down your face, it won't allow your emotions to embrace,  you are left bereft, while the sun, shines all around you.

Voices of fear, blacken your days, keeping you in those rat-infested alleys of your ways, as your habits usurper the days.

Yourself taught mechanisms, fixate the hate, hurt your mind, and the culture kills off any hope, that I will ever find you.

The midget mind of an individual voices their opinions on what is seen, rubbing salt into the wounds of those with bound hands, little options, and misguided dreams..

Hateful words splice open rubber, and air sucks life into deep sea graves, criminalising the unknown and drowning, as water filled lungs sink beneath the waves.

White gleaming smiles, hide the rotten teeth, of no compassion and...

I’m seeing well-beings,

being more body conscious,

conscious of the way they look,

looking into the cosmetic mirror

as they contemplate consider,

which teeth they can reconfigure,

liposuction, face filler and a slight tummy tuck.

I’m seeing well-beings,

being mindful and meditate,

meditate into a transcendental state,

stating online rhyming couplets,

With every beat of my heart
With every beat of my mind

I'm the clenched fist dragging on the concrete of my town
I am the gnarled smiling face of a twisted laughing clown
Like an unearthed jewel of ill-educated teaching
I'm the grasping hand of want, that never will stop reaching
A starved little brethren whose reached  his full potential 
In society groomed by the those ...

Pow ! Pow ! Pow !

I fought my way out of a paper bag

Pow ! Pow ! Pow !

With the strength of thought I never had

Pow ! Pow ! Pow !

Depression has also took the  hit

Pow ! Pow ! Pow !

Never thought I'd get rid of it

Pow ! Pow ! Pow !

I fight my way through the day 

Pow ! Pow ! Pow !

With a smile and a winning way

Pow ! Pow ! Pow !

Not a single  punch or blow

Age wears at my brain, un-synchronised,  imbalanced and faltered 

My withering melon head, rots forgetfulness, as memories dwindle

Rising gasses seep from the pit of my stomach and through these calcium deficient gaped teeth

Foul stenched morning breath  breaths, turning into a sigh, because its morning, another morning

Showered, dressed, fed, and refreshed,  a slice of orange  to give...

Start
Your home grown words of babble are no match for this real, reality. They are but clawed, gnarled carvings of your immediate scrolled banality.
Metrical schemes, un-synchronised  with punk'ed, punctuation, frozen stanza's, deconstructed, into emotional  isolation. 
Median 
The means and themes  are a shackled, shackles show, a chaotic sentence of structured syllables, a critiqued wheeze,...

Lights out 

And back to the cell 

In this sterile stentched community 

There's a sense, that all is not well

Chemically coshed with citalopram,  20ml

Black mamba, spice or shit faced

Either way there's a dip in seroonin 

That needs to be upped and replaced 

Foreboding with sense of menace

Being housed on this cat C dorm

Eighteen months of crime and punishment

Anxious and tried

Head lowered in shame

I can't face my face

Again and again 

Brooding dark doubt 

Sapped energy am tired 

Confidence is ebbing 

No company desired

Its something thats never existed !

Mental ill health, it's just a myth !

Its society that's twisted !

This  uniqueness is  a gift !

We are all individuals !

We are definitley not the same !

Except when it comes to the conditioning !

Of our human brain !

I mean, who decides what's normal !

In a world of human kind !

They've sectioned me for shouting !

He's a bar room philosopher, a  poet with an empty glass, a master of the unpaid laugh,  a true character. 

He's got shuffling feet and waving hands,  entertaining as he stands, eyeing up the optics on the corner of the bar.

He loves a drink and a smoke, tells his story with a joke.

Busking on the streets of town, singing to an unfamiliar crowd, singing all the songs you kn...

You choked the life out of me when I was a young  child

Upset me for a life time as you screamed your heavy burden

You boxed me like a punch bag, beat me with a peace pipe

bullied my confidences to the brink of  its creativity 

But you only hurt yourself

I could say it blankets me like a black cloak

But it's more obvious than that

It's written all over my face

Apparent in my behaviour 

Silently curtailing my speech 

Keeping interaction at arms length 

Limiting my conversation to a smile and some pleasantries at best

But I wish you all a good day

You whispered something,  but I needed you to shout, now it all hangs by a thread, and the thread that hangs there is, doubt 

These swirling thoughts stay there, caught up in my mind, no-one will ever know them, and I can't bring myself to speak the words, I cannot find

The essence of these swirling indecision, are neither strong or weak, I've turned the volume of this music low now, and the...

I quit my job and home

And off i go to roam 

Thought I was unhappy

But I have the soul of vagabond 

Who goes on walkabout 

Searching for the happiness thats just been  left.

Laughter and smiles 

A life time memory 

Just a moment, years ago

I can remember forever 

Not caught on camera

Just a click of emotion

Re-lived

Laughter and smiles 

Came to life again.

Words inspire events !

The event had left him numb 

Uninspired and wondering

So he wrote no more ..

Green foliage from a black pen well a word document and then...

January is cold
But made warm by your loving smile
I sit at my window
And I gaze up to the white glazed iced 
skies
I feel the cold wind bite
And I wish I were a bird
One of those, which have flown to 
warmer shores
But then, I could not have your warm
 loving smile
So I think I’ll stay here in January

Am living it up, partying all night

Then coming on down I feel reality bite

Spent up the next morning a fool to

Oh I should have stayed at home and

 put food on the shelf

Headache’s, hung-over, the near future

 looks bleak

With no hard cash I will struggle this 

week

Living on loose change but I’ll get by

Pennies jangle in my pocket but
