Spring cleaning…

Restless hopeless pitless
senseless bile
spits and spewes
acid in water
turning my insides out
the empire of nothingness
spring cleaning
a fresh start
the annual churnover…

a different drummer

Let them be heroes let them rule
Let them be winners and the harbinger of joy
Let them display the medals of true love and happiness
and bear the flags and the badges that such honour bestow
let them be the children of fate and the chosen ones
For this is not your homeland…

the dog that refused me on marine drive last night

Black and white and eyes so bright
A brother a friend a kindred sprite
A pack of fun on four quick paws
A slice of heaven for those few hours
