Taciturn v Shorn



There, it’s an obscurity
Making the presence known
A coldness down the spine
Manifest unease
Curled a dog in silent fear
Nose to tail a single
Quizzical eye to the unknown

How dare you threaten.
That foul stench of greed
Insatiable need to lord over
What?
One cannot own
Where there is no capacity to love
Affecting affectation, the pretentious show
Oh the tears

How has this dark energy been tuned
A statement of war
A confrontation that is due
To cause all impacted ruin
Much to a selfish satisfaction
And sick desire to static
A stench foul is spreading

Where went that pride
Distinct needless of none
It is slept long enough
And needs to participate
The remains of the great experiment
Have been freed
Will they be merged? Never
What will rise friend or its foe

And now I live every day afraid,
And tomorrow?

sfear

I have stood on this precise spot
time and again
everyday of this life
and stared off over the pool
where the firm was divided
my back to the certain infelicitous
regret but not regretting
forgetting but not to forget
my face to the certain blessed
a ghost

i have stood on this precise spot
time and again
everyday of this life
and stare off across the pool
where firm was divided
a face to where pain still tries
to fell me a haunting misadventure
i have not forgotten but will forget
and I turn to my blessing
this spirit

we all stand at this precise spot
ground to this sphere
a shared existence
of apparitions who inertia
renders beached to vengeance
incapable of motion.
pasts signal deaths wraith
verve cocoons purify threat abandoned
Take a hand and trust yourself.
choice temper

My ExCess


I am obLiterate in this onslaught against the very fibre if this that linked us to the mutual success of my inevitable success upon which you have conjoined your excess estimates of the risk do not meet your short minded self centre their will fore a reckoning which will further erode me to your planned failure of my ruination for I know what schema attack you are forming fearful of your age embarrassed by the formula you had created but we're unwilling to invest in. Life requiems earned investment or fail lures us to a precipice demised in your own misguided disguise.  We can mire in the far flung mud of the cesspools we created or we can fertilise a firmament upon that long lost.  

In other words.

A Tale of Two Gums


Excelerate yourself
Seemples, we can all change if we try
Of course we can
And yes I should feel what you do
But its me chew you see
Mine Aspergum suppresses all feeling
Hidden behind this lovely flavour
Cheery Cherry
Full Or range
Your choice
I do love your taste
Minty explosions emote through my head
A creative cretin born undeserving
While lamenting the languish
It stalls up here
Unshared understood unspoken, sadly
Perhaps we should stop ruminating
On or our ruinating
And trade packets
Or simply drop them
For the peace of a complex wine
This unknown vintage a reflection of age
To predict a self-assured onward
Sipped in love and friendship
Kindred spirits sharing difference
A devotion to simple affection
Uncontrolled forgiven
Controlled regretted for that unsaid
Honest reflections
Celebrate breath

Contemptplation

I fear the black corners
That which lurks in the dust
The product of our shed
Gone lifeless
And settled from this air
Our breathing a movement
Musical weaving of fate
There was no wrong done here
All of it reasonable
There was no love there
All of it sacrificial
And now to pay again
I've only blood left
Do I spill it
A last breath
Coaxing flotsam from the waste
Or do I shine light
And rise above
Once again
Because I am good
And so much the better
Than and without you

Daedal

It is all so complicated
There are things in
Beyond capacity
Beyond complexity
To be in comprehension
A tension of simplicities
Woven to intricacy
The links points
Of clarity and confusion.
Why do we bother to play in here at all?
The rules are fluidal
Whimsical points of view
Set by the artificer
Acquiesce only to capitulation
To secure concordance
From those who choose
To be misunderstood
Or misunderstand those
Who would understand
Those that are beyond
Giving of themselves further
For little reward
Till a creature of open heart
Enters the soul
And simply resides
In tender connection pulling
Constant heart in core
Encore and again
When it will make sense
We hope
Before it all unravels
Be it the ever intricate connecting
Knots of our entwined worth
Clenched to all hold on
For there are bumps ahead

Church of England

Talk to me Dad
Tell me of your life, the form
Tell me of the war, that wondrous playtime for young boys
Tell me of the terror, of bombs, direct and stealthy
Tell me of your moving
From the time your brother fetched the midwife
To the Mediterranean
To the Middle East
To England
Tell me till you stop
Your silence a period of sadness and melancholy

Play with me Dad
Show me how to throw a ball
A googily to confuse those opponents
Walk with me up tall mountains
And small villages and orchards and fields
Show me those ghosts
Show me these graveyards
Feed me Nelson Cakes and tea to ground me to the yards
And bring me to the admiral’s resting place
Our heritage of sea

Teach me Dad
Of history, of geography
Show me how to find my way
Points on maps with meaning
That the easy fast way is not the interesting way
Give me features to navigate this life
So I can find my way here
Again to you
Again to my children
Again to my home

We stand at Regent Day Dad
And I always look left
Even when you weren’t there
There you were a beacon, a hope
Just down that road or on those rails
And we believed if we had to
You would take us
Heal us, this was our faith

You’ve a way of speaking
A gentle giant of a man
Humour your shield
English to the core
We’ve adopted this you know
A quiet repose where silence holds definition
I borrow your voice in this head
And I use its familiar comfort
To relax people around proper friendly demeanor
To suppress anger
And to change this world for better

It was only a week Dad
And you had us all
You were so happy with your family
Finding back roads
Showing us Havre hills
Where none should logically be in that wide prairie
And we climbed the mountains and played in the snow
And we built memory

And it was only a week again Dad
A surprise wasn’t it
Your teen boy come to hold eulogy
With his father for a favoured mother
And you gave me connection to family
And our children connect even today
So we cannot be separated
Though separate we would be

Hold me Dad
I am faltered and alone
Disconnected and broken
Can you counsel a boy
Guide with your wisdom
Take away this pitted pain
Give me strength to carry forward
Against those opponents who would hold me committed
You said it was right, this change
I believe it is

Look at us Dad
Look at who we are
Fine men and women who made their way
Look at how we’ve learned
See your children’s children Dad
Wonders and joy, learning from us
And now their great children
Our rewards from God that we be allowed to carry on
It all started in England
This church of your people
And its is all so brilliant, all so unexpected
And all such a miracle

Look at what you’ve started
It is all so very good
We can take it from here
