Cheek to cheek
mooching
and softness
eyes half closed
sharing
private thoughts
on brief reunions…
Exotic dance
and secret song
echoes in their ears
sharing
a chosen bonding
of a few brief years…
Apart for
the most part
solitary & travelling
for thousands of miles
coming back
occasionally
to touch down
on jointly shared Isles…
Looking for truth
making a home
evidence to be
sometimes wide
of the compass mark
then missing
of sharing
and returning to sea
alone…
A swirling and circling
storm clouds threatening

Streaking cirrus
on blue and
light orange sky
empty
another day goes by.
Another day
spring already weaning
flowers beautiful
colourful
scented
looking for meaning.
Meaning for writing
papyrus electronique
seems like there’s nobody in here
and no reason
no reason to speak.
But speak we do often
too often by far
trouble seeing truth nowadays
silence might be best
when elbow’s on the bar.
Bar raised too steep?
integrity
a castle keep?
honesty with self
getting too deep?
where’s that [...]

They found him in the bathroom,
exit wound identifiable,
7.62mm,
full metal jacket,
muzzle velocity,
2,800 feet per second,
blew the back of his head,
clean out.
The blood on the wall was…
in the pattern of?
well, possibly…
Any symbol of the times which,
the media could assign it,
however stupidly…
“If it bleeds, it leads”…
Oh look!…
It’s a swastika,
or a hammer and sickle.
Maybe it’s the morally broken cross [...]

Yeah c’mon!
belly-flop in,
take a big mouthful,
of those ghosts,
which have been.
Squiggle the surface,
a tempting?
a pretty fishing ‘fly’?
see its reflection,
of past,
and have a good cry.
Triple hooks,
strong tropical fishing rig,
a doubling of chance?
for real insight,
or un-truth,
or another merry dance?
Big weights,
rough seas,
commune with the mermaids,
and other fantasies…
But don’t waste time…
trawling that bottom,
down there in those depths,
its not likely, big [...]

Never e’nuff certainty,
although, of course,
‘constant change’ comes to mind,
oh, that cliche again…
possibly more accurate…
the constancy of history repeating?
Repealing 2008,
remembering 1928,
revealing 2008…
Ever feel like,
you wanted to get off?
The ever loud driving,
the ‘party’,
the bass-beat of greed…
‘get ahead’,
‘go ahead’,
too empty a mantra…
Left ringing in your ears?
Did you get a chance to stop and look…
at the beauty of the [...]

Have you forgiven?
forgotten?
Remembered that awful moment…
Dwelled in anger on the cusp of…
Stomping about,
making a point,
talked…
more than you listened…
or,
remembered accurately.
You are beautiful,
you just keep getting,
the herd dust in your eye?…
Look again…
on another shelf?
on another self?
Bull… stomping…
in a China shop?
playing with meaningless cliches…
as a substitute for,
meaning?
Awesome experience,
this life,
hey?
Get to live and die,
if you choose…
in your heaven,
or your [...]

Have you ever seen…
A bear on a rocky Alaskan mountain side hunting moths?
A glacier spreading its feet,
through a Himalayan valley…
from space?
Have you ever looked?
Will you look?
Before you die?
When will you die?
How long will you live?
Is your current delusion,
your only illusion?
Are you already dead?
Breathing yes,
Participating, no?
Truthful, yes?
Living amongst the lying, no?
Caring, yes?
Ego-less, yes?
Self generated drama?
Fully determined [...]

Self absorbed fuck-wit,
among the 6 billion or so.
Burning mother-god’s resources…
like they are,
‘Burgers to go’.
Just another…
egoist,
on the rail-road to self-hell,
pretending ‘one’ matters,
in one’s own self-absorbed shell.
Just another…
loser.
Meaning looking for…
loss.
Missing the connection,
and, drowning in…
another days,
dreary dross.
Just another,
pretender.
Feymann you ain’t.
But you never had to be…
a contender,
a compulsive,
a repulsive.
Suicide boats to heaven…
never dock with integrity.
Just another…
‘you could have been’,
‘would [...]

I was just sitting outside admiring ‘mother earth’, soaking up ‘father sun’, and cutting my toe nails - yep, an auspicious start to another blog article :)
Immediate thought was - maybe I should post this over on ‘Buggered if I Know‘ because I can just feel it - it’s ‘gonna’ end up being a bit [...]

Till the earth until we die…
War in the middle east today,
and,
I don’t know why.
Oxen strains plough shears through the sand…
Starving children in Africa today,
and…
I just don’t understand.
Patter the clay, new home,
brick by brick…
Money men killed another forest today,
and…
I feel sick.
Drought this year,
earth scorched bare…
More space junk in the sky today,
why…
don’t I care?
Stable the horses from [...]
