Written on New Year’s Eve, 2009. * * * Two thousand and nine years, what did you bring? So much consumed, from love to substances, Ethics, war, women; all things you did fling; The roadside littered. How many dances Did you share when the devil took your hand? I remember crying eyes and hearts broken, [...]

Dedication (poem)
March 5, 2012 – 6:30 pm
A little emotionless since I left. More like a machine; oil, not blood. Everything changed with that cleft: My broken body fell with a thud. Conscious of those who don’t approve, Believe it rough it’s smooth – Many hours sacrificed to improve… Hate all you want: your words soothe My creative ambitions. Stare till your [...]
Christmas Truce (poem)
March 2, 2012 – 6:30 pm
(Written 24/12/2009:) “I found this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_truce) today and it inspired me to write this poem. I wasn’t sure what to write about on Christmas Eve as most people just want to relax and have fun, but I still wanted to write something with a slither of importance so I thought I’d highlight this incredible yet [...]
Zeal (poem)
February 29, 2012 – 6:30 pm
Passion is the life blood of everything: Some paint, others write — many sing, Each identity focused on their goal No matter what stands in their way, they roll Stumbling, injured, bloodied and vehement… Much is lost, more is gained: they were sent By the creative urge, to explore our Inside, outside, everywhere — every [...]
Keyhole (poem)
February 28, 2012 – 6:30 pm
Inner peace has been attained — Winter wind Keeps the writer inside, forever pinned, Until the new year lends the mind a chance To reflect, to prioritise and glance within. I see my enemies lying, Their conviction in their beliefs dying. Justice descends to pull me higher, Yet my conscience labels me a liar. Variation [...]
A Godless Path (poem)
February 27, 2012 – 6:30 pm
Defeat is no longer the finalé: Survival essence you must rally. Time is extended, but our bones are not. Exhale your ideas, before they rot. You’re choosing to live, existential man; Make decisions! You write your own plan. Ink and tears will fall on your paper, Don’t allow your emotions to taper Off — the [...]
Summit (poem)
February 25, 2012 – 6:30 pm
Do not push me, for I will not move. Do not lie, for it will nothing prove. Violence comes and goes, like clouds above, Meaningless like unrequited love. You’ve seen the looks, the furrowed brows: Harmless as the ship with sinking bows. A rotten ship with no crew aboard. So much time spent there, we’re [...]
Point Blank (poem)
February 24, 2012 – 6:30 pm
“All’s fair in love and war”, How can you argue against it? You can be so close to blows, so raw; This close to bloody fury, I admit. Watch though, heat dissipates quick – But the pain of longing affection — that’ll stick. How can you judge what’s fair? We do to others what we’d [...]
