The other side of me

Simple things

A table,

A chair,

An unmade bed.

There are things that should remain unsaid.

Are the wages of sin tax deductible?

October 6, 2018October 8, 2018freefallingfragments3 Comments

Drunk guy in the tube last night,

Expensive suit,

Designer specs,

Designer teeth.

Asked me if I believed in capitalism.

Had I been saved?

Had I any savings?

I told him I was agnostic

because my level of interest

was too low

Endings

October 1, 2018October 7, 2018freefallingfragments7 Comments

A lifetime surrounded

by dust and decay and a burning ball of fire.

Where does the end begin

and the beginning end?

My mask of smiles is old and cracked

around the edges.

Where did the “you” begin

And the “me” end?

Soccer scores

The match was close,

two halves of a broken whole –

The match was close,

but I lost –

Love 1, Me 0

there were diesel rainbows,

and a stench of dead cod, piss.

kids dug for gold in the sand,

post-industrial dads read Ludlum;

mums never stopped being mums –

and beyond the sea wall,

a heaven unlikely

Inside outside

He carries his heart

In a little brown bag.

The acid-burn of raw spirit

Raises his, or at least

Dulls the memory of the person

He once wanted to be.

He carries his thin skin,

In his mind,

A clock ticks and ticks and ticks

Until his sunset

of the mountain lake –

floats a mountain

Orange Blossom (acrostic)

Beautiful light,

Light orange,

Orange silk,

Silk sensation…

Sensation, only

Only me –

Me another…

Alarm signal

July 27, 2018October 8, 2018freefallingfragments2 Comments

The train hurtles into the tunnel

With no fear.

Is love the same?

Should we trust the unknown, the unknowable, the darkness and fleeting lights of a happy illusion?

My heart hurtles into the infinite…

Somber

The sun’s having a lie-in.

Took a look at the state of things

and went back to bed –

The way things are going,

I seriously hope his health insurance

is better than mine

A pretentious mix of good and bad, for the fun of words, and for catharsis of my tired, weary and oh so aching soul ;)
