When I shut my eyes I see darkness But when I squeeze them I see glitter Like first taste of your lips, grenadine sips Then tongue started to spit bitter Do you rage the war  Finish on even score And come out fitter? Or do you plead for peace? Give what it is you seek [...]

You’ll feel it in your soul God blesses In the earth your skin caresses In the perfect lines life messes And those eyes where truth confesses You’ll hold it in your hands, undress it Use that pretty head to send the message You’ll be what saves the wretched You’ll still what rumbles hectic Give back [...]

You’re no longer eyeballing the world with wonder You’re grabbing it by the pinkened neck Lands you on your arse, sometimes, don’t it? But you’re already on the look out for what’s next There will be tears, oh of course Can’t expect anything to be cushioned But that’s another lesson you’ll learn As I kiss [...]

If you’re looking for that than fair enough But I’m not made of it, I’m made of tougher stuff Fair enough, if you’re searching for doormat But I ain’t made of that Silence has a brilliant appeal right now Because everything my tongue expunges Gets taken the wrong route If I was wanting to dish [...]

I enjoyed your abstractivity Thought those odd shapes Could fit me nicely But tying myself into knots So you don’t start screaming Has taught me that maybe Freedom of expression Matters more than it was seeming I realise you are in your element When it’s furthest from me Finally belly laughing And standard free I [...]

I beg to be frank Beg to be honest and vulgar Beg for truth to be a sun bleached carcass That I gobble after careful circle Like a long starved vulture Beg to be told Beg to not go wondering Alas I find falsehood lurking It’s lies and pleasantries numbering You can give it to [...]

The fly don’t ponder why he Parties on a pile of dog shit He just does it He don’t hold his breath Or dream of cleaner pastures To grab grub That dog shit is all he knows And all he loves Maybe he fears the finger That turns him to mush But he don’t miss [...]

Getting ready to beat up some boys Upturn my pram And fling out my toys Got a voice in my head Saying “behave” But that’s just noise Because I like a bit of trouble I reckon it’s one of life’s rare joys So I paint my skin Until my skin’s destroyed And I hate my [...]
