Delicate flowers Hanging from my window box, Beautiful blooms Growing up a trellis upon my wall, I watch the bees buzzing Hovering around them all, I love the nature I love growing flowers, Nurturing and tending them I grow a rainbow of colours, Theres nothing satisfying There’s nothing more beautiful, They bring me inner peace…

We could have been so much more But our weakness was in listening to others, We should have stood strong in trust and unity In the neighbourhood of lies and gossip, We missed the truth that others have agendas They use these to shore up their own shallow empty lives, Seeking to create drama’s in…

Soldiers are not trained to think Soldiers are simply trained to kill, They become the machines of war We must learn to not train no more, Soldiers to wreak death and destruction This in truth is their primary function, Let’s train them to think of ways To evolve and to create, A far more peaceful…

I don’t need direction I’ll find my own path, I know what I want I don’t dwell in the past, I know what I like Only I know what I need, I prefer to share I do not like greed, I think my own thoughts And my own conscious beliefs, I prefer being authentic I…

I walked down a tunnel in my dreams Criss crossed by a myriad of laser beams, Nothing is ever quite what it seems In a kaleidoscope of multicoloured scenes, I live here trans-dimensionally In a time that echoes constantly at me, Throwing back distant memories And creating vivid fantasies, That are quite abstract and alien…

Back slash Back wash From a nobody, Critiquing others work That you find shoddy, Lacking perspicaciousness You sit in righteous judgement, Hunched over your keyboard Typing vitriolic shit, Lacking any kind literary competence Your house isn’t built of brick, It’s a glasshouse that can be shattered Like any other poets dreams, The shit you write…
