  • Lessons we could learn from

    Bang, pow, there’s an explosion Scream loud, what a commotion, This happens in outer space These sounds and visions are displayed, Way beyond our knowledge and ken By the time that we know where and when, The galaxy has passed through a millennium, So much is happening but it’s hard to believe We look up…

  • Healing the great divide

    I can see the peace within the stars Through the haze of consciousness scars, A myopia of tracer lights lead the way to it Like a path so clearly and well lit, And I cannot understand why it is not seen I know that it’s no fantasy or utopian dream, What will it take to…

  • The truth about migration

    Migrants are blamed for society’s ills But they are the cares giving the pills, Helping the old, and those with mental and physical health issues These are the jobs no one else wants to fill, They bring culture and they bring colour We offer division and we show them hate, And nothing will change when…

  • Women suffer at a weak man’s hand

    Young women dying at the hands Of controlling and possessive men, Who can’t take rejection as a result Of their anger, violence and abuse, And when they realise they lost them then They can’t bear to think of being alone again, If they can’t have them, then neither will anyone That’s what their wrong wired…

  • From a crowded place to bliss

    From a crowded place to bliss

    Through the crowd I see her radiant smile, The glow of her beauty It drives me wild, We in that moment Are soon transported, To a place of solitude Where only we exist, And the warmth of the hugs And the tenderness of our kiss, Levels up this place of solitude To a realm of…

    Hard times Teach us much, Sad times Build inner strength, Dark times Help us appreciate the light, Strange times Make us question everything, In these times Be open to all of life.

  • The banking rip off

    The banking rip off

    The banks only thrive because of our money Being put into the accounts that they create, The money they lend is not theirs It is the money put in by others in our communities, The interest we earn is based on how they invest They are gambling our money and in them we trust, If…

  • This is the truth and it’s not right

    Pay rises capped While tax dodging thrives, Corporate profits increase While people in poverty die, It’s not because of migration It’s because of the fascination, That the wealthy have for money And not in any equality, It’s seeing just how rich they can get To seem more powerful with no regrets, Of those who produce…

  • Truthful May

    Truthful May

    It’s the rich and not the migrants That is making so many of us struggle, It’s those who don’t pay taxes and who are corrupt Not those seeking asylum from wars, The wars we fund through our government To bomb countries of different faiths and beliefs, Leaving their people nowhere else to go but here…

  • Wasted life

    I am a corporate slave I’ve wasted life away, Working to the clock Every single day, Clocking in and out Working my fingers to the bone, Giving my all for very little in return Businesses show so little concern, As long as they get their pound of flesh That’s all they truly care about, I…
