Mind Over Scatter

Brow like corrugated iron

Fists of adamant

Every muscle tight

Teeth rasping

Thoughts flying like starlings

A scattered unison

Pissing me off

You flapping

Bastard leave me be

I will not be enraged

An ocean of calm

That shrieking

Will not disturb

Love Poem

I like it.

I really like it

when it’s me and you.

The simplicity

instead of duplicity.

You love me as I am.

And I love you.

End of the Month

For some it was payday

and that meant celebrations

with an early louse

a drinky poo or two

and a takeaway after

For some it was Friday

and that brought the weekend

with the kids at mine

a DVD or two

with no moaning at the ex

For some it was night time

and that meant loneliness

or a cheeky pint

with the lost at the bar

envying others problems
