Here are three poems in their rough cut state. Maybe I’ll finish them someday!
Why?
Once I was a butterfly but now I’m just a flutterby in history
A salmon leaping to his future selves now a distant memory
We hope you remember us as you float on the gone-ice seas
Where once the white bears roamed, fed and took their ease
The ticking clock of fate, the fate of us all fell on deaf ears
As you dug, drilled, spilled, drained and weaponised fears
You are all Icarus flying and dying from the heat of the sun
And in your passing you will show us that our time is done
Wrong choices
We’re all wallowing in a pit of darkness
Wailing for the two thousand year son
To ride his three king comet and return
Buddha, Allah, Jesus Christ or whoever
Lots of prayers but nothing coming back
Except a one way ticket to our oblivion
We should have stayed ignorant in the sea
Instead of getting dry feet and a big brain
Welcome all, welcome to our own bad dream
Its not just in space you can’t hear us scream
We’ve hurt Earth in the morning and the night
Our saviour isn’t going to come and intervene
So our existence is just hanging by a thread
Our Angels now exiled from heaven and Earth
We bow before the Babylon Whore at our peril
Back In the day!
I’ve rolled my smoke cause I’m no dope
Soon I’ll be high flying without a care
I’ll still be here but no one will be home
As I roam in slow time outside my mind
I might not be the most intelligent guy
But in the haze I open up my third eye
See the colours denied me in the real
