‘Will you search through the lonely earth for me?
Climb through the briar and bramble…’
Random #269
There was a naughty boy
And a naughty boy was he,
He ran away to Scotland
The people for to see–
Then he found
That the ground
Was as hard,
That a yard
Was as long,
That a song
Was as merry,
That a cherry
Was as red–
That lead
Was as weighty,
That fourscore
Was as eighty,
That a door
Was as wooden
As in England–
So he stood in his shoes
And he wondered,
He wondered,
He stood in his shoes
And he wondered.
The Kindest Thing To Do
It’s not that I don’t want to
He said
But we have been here before
I can’t give you what you need
She said
So I won’t ask you any more
It’s Not Real
I think
I love
you
He
said
But
I cannot
wait
If you
loved
me
She
said
You
wouldn’t
hesitate

Getting Off Lightly
Grief affects everyone
In many different ways
Yet some among us
Prove lucky enough
To escape the daily malaise
Poles Apart
I still cry myself to sleep
Not that you’d know
You selfish creep
You think because
We all lost him
That we both feel the same
But you haven’t got
A fucking clue
Of how I live each day in pain
