To my God of Rise and Shine

text version below


Almighty God of Rise and Shine, 
  why abandon me this day,

Thy 7am alarm never rung; to wake
  this soul to virtues old and new,

Thy coffee served is poor and lacking 
  both in revitalization and in power,

Thy shower head is clogging up
  not to mention the freezing aqua,

Almighty God of Rise and Shine
  disappointment lingers in
  my mind, as another day I 
  do start, one to be followed
  by another morrow, when 
  all is back to normal sorrow

  (please)

a.c.i.d

text version below


I have never tripped on acid 
    but I fell for you 
Your tongue as sharp as razors 
    but my bleeding’s not by you
I write about becoming more
    but I know not what to do
The seeping of the life’s force
    tripping might be the only cure

The irony of being in control

text version below


The irony of “being in control”,
your privacy policy; GDPR and
the like, are implemented 
through “cookies”. Cookies you
need to accept and store so 
they can be tracked. Somewhere
along the line the EU got this 
policy so, so wrong. Advertisers 
are laughing all the way to the 
bank, their pockets lined with 
our private data, and cookies 
crumbling

terror

text version below


What started as a gentle breeze

                                        {a thought}

one cloud free June morning,

ended up a raging storm that night

          {“You are not good enough”}

repeating over, and over 

                            {and over}

how to get away with it


*I LEAN OVER*

“HOW?”, YOU WHISPER

“POETIC LICENSE”, I REPLY, “ I
ALWAYS HIDE BEHIND MY POETIC
LICENSE”

“NO DOUBT…, NO DOUBT”, YOU
WHISPER, YOUR EYES SET ALIGHT




TW: all-caps
TW: text in which the author is anticipating the reception of the text and premptively making it a response thereby making the text even less comprehensible to the reader

There’s a bit of truth in all my writing,

        mine or yours; you decide

Auth•or

Auth•or ::

    { I am } 

gradually accepting 

    { coming to terms with } 

a belief in words 

    { unspoken }

originating within 

    { divine pillars }

the self

Look up, look around O.O

text version below


She walks her dog 
    through leafy coppice,
birds chirp their 
    sunshine fancies,
She never stop 
    for doggy droppings,
in likelyhood; completely
    unaware 

All hail the extention leash!

All hail multitasking!

Facebook updates 
    and 
smiley tweets 

preventing her from seeing 
    all that is 
        around her

Daisy

text version below


Daisy’s mum 
  can’t find any socks
Daisy’s dad 
  can’t stand their noise
Daisy’s neighbour 
  sits in a chair, only 
  wanting bird song and 
  the freedom to hear
