Shut Up and Write

entry picture

At a recital

The other night

I had to restrain

With all my might

From wiping my arse

On the written shite

That was spouted from

Mouths so vain, so trite

 

I took myself

Away from that place

Full of whisky

Full of disgrace

And flushed my ego 

Down the pan

I just can’t bear 

To be that man

 

Shite

There is no other way to self discovery, otherwise we are governed by shadows! Unfortunately, guilt is often the ruin of us. Although it can a killer, it can also tricked into submission. Ray

I think I've blown your cover Harry.
I think you're referring to the preacher. He who knows how the world works - in his favour.

Thankyou Lynn...I am now shutting up and writing, no more talking to myself in rooms full of people ignoring each other.
A man actually read his poem to me privately and after doing so said "Its good isn't it" well what can I say.

Morning Harry. I like your words. This piece led me to have a gander at your others which I enjoyed too. Lynn
