Poetry. I feel sure there is something, somewhere...
Thursday, October 30
It’s been a long time since I was on the web
I’ve been to a wedding
A funeral
And now for a test
Which, might well be going well
I ride with these things
Dynamic
And I do like to yell
So gather round, and I’ll try to write like I could
Sometimes I have been known to say
Something
I like the way it looks
And I like to watch and look and listen
See, feel, and hear
To steal
At least, of form that is written
Yah.

The lights go on again,
It’s gone ten.
The multitude sighs,
With tears in their eyes.
We’re ready for them…

We’ve lost control again
Didn’t take too long to reach the end, again
Once more unto the bar dear friends
Help me save me from them
I know a girl but I forgot for hours
I saw myself, myself soured
Not to matter I’ll bring her flowers
I won’t do better for being a coward
I have a healthy glow while my insides rot
I have memory loss at a rate of knots
And I will this life till our paths are crossed
We want to know what it’s like to feel loss

Wasting,
Wasting away.
I see empty foot prints,
I hear only in grey.
It’s another grey day.
Sitting,
Been sitting here for two hours now.
Watch the people negate me.
Crazy how many come to town.
Let’s go to town.
Shoes,
I see endless shoes.
Faces turn away.
What have they got to lose?
Their smile, or all those shoes?
Twenty pence,
A twentieth of a pack of cigarettes.
Easy to spare if you can face my mess.
Feel like I’m always in lent.
Like a house up for rent.
Women,
Women talk to me.
I think it makes them feel complete.
Same women wouldn’t walk with me.
But I will have that cup of tea.
Test,
Is this the test?
All my life to date is no horror, no mistakes, another take.
Could it be only that, and not all the rest.
Then I wish for rest.

You like to smile
Step on a child
And step up once more
It’s all in the climb
The name of the wine
And whose got the whore
If it was for money
At least it’d be funny
Not make us so sore
You believe you see
Your false popularity
Opens the door
You’re a joke little man
See-through and damned
Yet you make our laws
And as for the rest
They stand around and jest
And clap your little war
The whole world is looking
The mess you are cooking
Do you know what it’s for?
We know how you lie
Shake your fist up high
You’ll leave the world raw
And that’s just the way
It happens every day
At least we’ve got draw
You believe what they say
They’ll say what you pay
So one day you’ll fall
And one day you will fall

I am afflicted with the words of silence
They flow straight from my soul
I drink the milk of human kindness
But I can’t speak with my control
Some say sweet and some say no
She said love’s the only way to go
But when I speak my words are slow
It’s the only way I know
The way I stand my self feels no sense
It bursts out, casts a golden mold
I talk when only I have licence
Talk an over-stated role

Chance strikes us blue
Its twists, a cut
Upheaval is the new
Look back and your fucked
We call it luck
I love the way
Through roots abused
See hedges fly away
All the colors infuse
And yet we refuse
Its always been easy
You're aloof, you're loose
You don’t want to free me
But I ride the truth
And hey you lose
And so we fear control
We snort, and lie short
And it’s crazy to let go
But it’s work to get taught
To make it worth the thought
The dice roll again
All lose, the bets off
And all win
And all get lost
Just believe in the toss
So chance strikes us blue
Lie still, don’t suck
It’s all we go through
Look back and you’re fucked
All suck
