The Bridge stays Strong

Conceived, shaped, and moulded by generations the gentleness of hands long gone continues to form me. You gave me the will to breach the walls of time, and the keenness to hold and care for those to come. I am thankful for my ways, this chaotic flood of impatience lit by flashes of sagacity, this […]

On Writing

In the caverns of my soul, where spirits cavort with words and silence murmurs masterpieces as yet unheard, I find solace and excitement in the art of writing. It’s a tempestuous affair, a flame that consumes me, compelling the ink to flow from my pen as the blood does in my veins. I am bewitched […]

A BIGGER STEP

Welcome to the epoch of public execration, To the spectacle of inter-netted public approbation Victims selected for society’s gleeful obsession With prolonged and public denunciations. A time when casual callousness rides the wave of fashion And cruelty becomes the face we wear; no space for compassion. This world, it seems, is not equipped to hold […]

In Wales.

In Wales, where mountains rise to the mist And where sea meets shore with a gentle kiss, There’s a beauty deeper than the level of skin A people-hood of “ddu ar gwyn”. From coal scarred valleys to bustling cities, People of all races, cultures and identities, Come together in harmonious blend, Welcoming each other as […]

PSYCHO DRUMBEAT.

The Drummer’s beat incessant, spits the rhythm straight and narrow,words, unheard and lifeless are eulogised as tarot.Yet he looks beyond time for shifting, shapeless shadows. Syncopated breaths of hope stay the rages of maniac and hysteric.Poison promises grey the images that haunt the gaunt psychotic.And sweetened threats soothe the breasts of the aggressive and pathetic.

Grant me a cat’s Day of sweet FA.

(You don’t have to solve the world. You can stroke a cat and guzzle beer”) I’d like me a cats’s day, 24 hours without effort or views.A placid, subdued day, no work and no news.With the moggy in my lap, purring, asnooze, a whole empty day to do nothing, just as we choose.A day of […]

A FISHY SURMISE.

When I first looked up and out‘Twas enough to make me shoutIn wonder and surpriseAt what I saw thru the water in my eyes.A Leviathan on thingsWhich moved without gill, tail or strings.A face, looking clueless into my homeAll nosey while he moseys.What is the stuff above the eyesThat waves like the crowfoot that lieson […]

LOUDER THAN ANGER IN THE QUIET CHAIR.

At fourteen I was old enough to know the weight of a voice that cracks like a ruler on a desk. In the Children’s Home, trouble meant thunder, names thrown sharper than sleet against windows, silence clamped like a lock on the tongue. . From punishment I learned to freeze, not think; to brace, not […]
