Re: Unjustifiably
Words are preferable to bullets Friendly chats can change enemies Into friends with thirsty gullets. A toke or two is sure to please Why fight when you can just relax enjoy each others company And moan about the income tax taking more of your hard earned money. It is the same the wide world round. T...

Re: Bacchanalia
Lovely to read if not experience just yet Spring is slow this year although a few brave crocuses and spindly daffodils are showing their faces beneath bare trees

Persistent Nuisance.
Persistent Nuisance. The morning mist lingers til noon and shows no sign of lifting soon. The air is still, no wind today to drive the wretched mist away. The sky a dull gunmetal grey. We will not see the sun today. The mist remains all afternoon As though it’s waiting for the moon. Tomorrow may bri...

Monumental Mistakes
Monumental mistakes. Boiled cabbage, stale urine and cats. Drab concrete corridors and stairs. My memories of high rise flats. That seemed to spring up everywhere. These hideous monstrosities. Designed by modern architects. Like symptoms of some foul disease They had unwanted side effects. Designed ...

Re: Unlikely
Solutions cannot be imposed No matter what may be proposed. The people are entitled to do what the feel the need to do. Although it may not suit the west The people know their own needs best. THey will decide eventually who they trust to run their country. It isn't really our business. WE have no ri...

Re: Unsustainable
Silence reigned trapped in the lift. Accusing glances passed between recipients of the noxious gift. Although its true it might have been anyone of them but you. The stench is utterly obscene. You're innocent you know thats true. But they do not ,you are suspect. Their is no way to detect. The guilt...

Re: Hello.
Parting they say is sweet sorrow. but you have to face tomorrow. We cannot know what is to be Yesterday is history. parting may be for the best. It makes you face up to the test. Provides an opportunity to become what you should be. The only certainty is change. Although at first it may seem strange...

Re: Atropos (A Poetic Response to Tehmandaboo's Hope)
All who are born,in due course must die. We do not know the reason why. Though we can advance theories As men have done through history. Presenting them in prose or verse epically or brief and terse. What does it matter either way we do not know and cannot say. I can accept the words you use without...

Re: Unconcerned By The Truth
It seems the truth consists of lies That politicians advertise.. although we have a chance to vote. It does not mean that they will note the opinions we express. In fact they could not matterless. To governments whilst they're in charge. Its true to say that by and large. We are a nation ruled by fo...

Whose Immaturity?
Immaturity. When darkness descends silently upon the city centre squares Teen agers hang out and meet their friends To discuss their own affairs They have a culture of their own Which adults do not understand? They do no harm if left alone. Although they can get out of hand In their youthful exubera...

Re: TREASON AGAINST A NATION
You can fool all the people some of the time you can fool some of the people all of the time Eventually the penny drops and chaos ensues. You await the latest news and views. Some are theories, some are lies It should not come as surprise. You never know who's fooling who It's hard to judge which vi...

Lady in waiting.
Lady in waiting. 2011 I live alone, my family and all my friends are long since gone. There’s no one left who cares for me. Others have problems of their own. I’ve had my share of happiness and known the depths of misery. My life now seems to matter less. So I am waiting patiently. For death to come...
