Bimbling Bombling Bumble Bees

Tuesday, January 7th, 2020

Bimbling bombling bumble bees are in competition with the honey bees Bimbling high and bombling low Flombering and womberling to and throw Large and fat they hum and drone Looking for the nectars home The nectar lives in the flowers bowl And bumbles bees need it to grow To make them big and fat and […]

Gone

Thursday, December 26th, 2019

You are a wraith to me now Nothing but a memory Faded to a muzy shadow On the page Flood damage has crinkled your edges Coffee rings daisy chain your face In little etched scars You are smiling soft and sad Sigh like the birds we always tried to catch as children Flit away and […]

Cosmic Scar Tissue

Saturday, December 21st, 2019

Dark scars marked the edges of the cosmos Deep within the universal core slithering with a pulse Time counted in an endless rhythm that will end Will slither to a close Supping and sucking and draining the energy Moment by moment Until the fragments of time can be cut To another slither Creaking the gears […]

The Spell of Words

Monday, December 16th, 2019

Words are written Words are spoken Words are remembered Words to instruct Words to bind Words to see And words to blind Words that please Words that purge Words that speak Words that surge Words of indecision Words of description Words of pure addiction Words of infliction And words of action Words may seek words […]

Metamorphises

Friday, December 6th, 2019

Lets see, See that girl me Running around, Thinking she is climbing up when she’s falling down doing too much stuff With no time to sit and think Or be Watch her sink beneath Shoulds and woulds and coulds Drowning in potential Being told it is essential – to choose Knowing what ever she decides […]

Star stuff filtered through the cosmos Star stuff smaller than dust Hurtling away from explosive stella deaths Star stuff heavy metal elements of choice Star stuff light hydrogen and helium in plasma soup Colliding, destroying, reforming Different atoms to be Diffusing out from red giant expansion Layers of reaction Different star mechanisms for different elements […]

Ana

Friday, November 15th, 2019

Skeletal Beauty defined Seek completion in the hunger burns Hating self Reflection worse Blazing the power of denial Filling shrunken belly with water Exercise to manic heights Shin splints, lips split Hidden and hiding Hair lank but glossed bright smoking the need away Jitter, fidget, stare intense Rearrange the room Pick at a cushion Weight […]

I Want

Wednesday, November 6th, 2019

I want to be free but without loosing those who tethered I want to be without pain but not without sensation I want to achieve what I can see without killing what I can’t I want to lose the fear of the dark without loosing empathy I want to solidify my dreams without crystalising the […]

Guidance

Monday, October 28th, 2019

I am an orange ball Bouncing up and down Bright and glaring Guiding others Showing them how to sing This song An important song I start by building them Cell by cell Until they are free Then I feed them So they grow And learn I am an orange ball Sometimes they sing high And […]
