Be

Beheld by the burden of beingBeckoned by the belief of becoming Perturbating between the boundaries of both Balanced on the brink of perceived belongingThe past we belated, the present we absented, The beyond we proceed to with blindnessPackaged and bound in a bow of the self we berateOr abandoned, trapped in dubious baggageBlown away by the blatant ablation of our brioRebel! Rebel! Against being…

Nine to five

It feels like I’ve aged nine years in the past fiveLike I’ve been five different people in the last nineIt feels like it’s been downhill yet I’ve had many victoriesI should focus on the highs rather than what it cost to winIt feels like the last nine months went in the blink of an eye, And in five months the new year will feel like a lieIt feels like a good year but what happened to all of the…

The horned one

I reside in the details in-between the lines Working tirelessly in your idle minds I may care, I may not They’d like to think I cry when I’ve lost If you’re like me and burnt through the eons  Wins and losses all blend into one Whether you’re a waltz or a ballroom type  I’m happy to dance in the pale moon light Speak of me and I’ll appear in red and gold I have what you want, just show…

Other people

They say heaven is other peopleThe warmth of the many, the love of the fewIt’s the faces when your life flashes before youWhen memories swim in dopamine viewsThey say hell is other peopleThe guilt that we carry, the shame we hold trueThe times of agony, losses unrecouped Like the cold stare of a stranger in a dark room They say eternity is other peopleYou only die when the last person thinks of…

Torrents

What’s understood don’t need to be saidYou don’t understand today, but you will tomorrowThe praying mantis prays to lose its headAt birth, the star is destined to be a black holePerhaps the will takes the same form as the etherTo the observer, all the ants follow the linePerhaps the will takes the form of the words of a liarTo the creator, the behaviour is the designWhat’s the future of the ball…

Unwavering time

Days are too short and years roll by in the blink of an eye And what’s the retort? Stare your eye in the mirror and lie It’s hard to deny the eye as a mirror of sorts And the prickles of time are also endured by clocks But the truth mirrors the false, minus the faults At times tedious to spot and tough to report In clichés lie the unique, life is long, life is short You’re all that matters…

Slippery

The wind, a mischievous child tugging at the edges of fabric, leaves and hair, snagged at a woman’s scarf as she navigated the winding path, her eyes fixed on the ground, she heard another set of footsteps, she raised her head to see the figure of a woman approaching her, looking down at her palms. Clouds, a brooding congregation on one side of the horizon, the other side, a calm blue, waiting,…

8 out of 9 lives

Call me maudlin, my greatest of sinsThe bittery past turns into gin Mix in the syrupy sorrow and juiceA flip of the coin where both sides are twosI’ve got to tell you dear old chapIn 8 out of 9 lives, this catWould fall and land on his backAnd follow the light like a laser’s markI’d ask for that hand and start with a danceAnd waltz to a wreck, the future’s my pastI’d chase my tail till my lungs…

Dust and trickle

How do I do this again? Oh yeah, one word at a time Find the stream and gain some momentum Oh, don’t forget to rhyme It’s like riding a bike Oh and breathe, don’t forget to breathe Dust off the dirt from the blade Oh how mighty is the pen Sigh…  It depends…  On the sword? On the pen?  Or perhaps the hand That decides how much will drip From the edge or the tip It only takes one…

Greater > than

The only thing that exists is the instance at handYet we are greater than the sum of the moments we haveIf we choose to rise above this factWe could be greater than the sum of our pastLevitate from the death of minutes, emerge from the ashWe rise to the occasion, some willing, some kicking and screamingThrust from the nest, frantically flapping and screechingOr jump from the crest, feathers…

Widows and wealth

They say war creates widows and wealthIn the wake of the turmoil, the waves are feltThe rising tide lifts all ships and drowns the restThe wandering eye sees all things but is blind to itself The warrior had the world in his handsAnd then watched it all crumble to sandIt felt strange to have so much power and feel so helplessLike an elephant at sea, or a shark in a forestStill, there’s something…

Time is a beach

Time is a beach

Watching the world pass byMy my, how time flies byOne minute you’re watching popeyeNext minute the greys in your hair pop byWhere does it all lead? The sum of all dreamsThe hours all bleed to a collage of themesGenre-bending, seemingly never-endingTill we’re flower-sending when vessels emptyThey say the treasure is the attemptBut no medals for contentNo honour in contemptThe flavour is in the…

This old town

People come and go in this townI’ve seen all sorts come aroundDo you think a place can be too peaceful for beings?I think that’s what it is, I really do believeWhen the silence is at its maximumEvery tick of the clock sounds like an explosionOr maybe a siren callI told you, I’ve seen all sortsThere’s an idea in physics, a theory of entropyA theory of chaosAnd it postulatesThat entropy, chaos,…

I’m afraid you’re cynical

Give it to my straight Doc, none of the sugar-coated nonsense It’s not looking good sir, you’re going to want to sit for this You’re becoming cynicalI’m afraid it’s terminalWe ran some tests to see how bad And when we played you that song with the new dance fadWe noticed aggravations here, here and especially here in your facial areasNot to mention muscle tension in your arms and shouldersWe…

She steps softly

From her battles, through the trials and tribulationsShe hoped she would one day be more than the sum of her expectationsAs the time unfolded itself in the form of a black carpetUnrolling into blinding winding white lightsUnravelling, cascading into words unsaidSo she stepped her bare foot unto the dark velvetIt felt warmer with every stepSo did the light, and so did her breath Hoping to one day…

Contraindications

Are you okay? You seem a little offWe’re in constant flux, it’s just a little troughYou should see people, spend time with the ones you loveYou should take time for yourself, focus on self-love You should take time to do nothing, spend some time in the sunIt’ll make you feel better if you got some things doneYour system is out of balance, maybe you need some medsPerhaps all those chemicals are…

Breathe and flow - Fisher

Breathe and flow – Fisher

The end of silver became the birth of goldA severed liver at the end of a ropeThe bait in the river, the bend of the poleA starving fisher waiting to go homeThe life of a human, in a world misunderstoodHe dreams of a Toucan, maybe dreams of twoThe wings on his back can get him throughNo matter what land, he finds what is trueThe end of silver birthed the rise of goldThe same to the weaver, just…
