How Do You Sleep At Night

How do you sleep at night?  With one eye open or one eye closed?  Dreaming of knights in shining armour, or amour in [with] shining nights? How do you sleep at night? Do you dream of impending death, or [upending] impending [this] life? Dreaming of C= Squared, or of squares being equal [stuffed] with Cs? How do you sleep at night? Do you dream in the blues, the blacks, the yellows, or the…

To No One in Particular

Back in the day, I was the guy you called for a pint-and-a-punch-up, back in the days when I didn’t drink.  Who do you call now, with so many moons passing?  I saw whats-her-name some time ago, it being a fragment of my imagination.She asked about you, but I couldn’t remember her name, so I ummed and ahhh’d until she walked away.  Another fragment, I won’t get back.  Nor she. “Everything…

It Takes a Village

Bombardments, I see them in the distance, but realise that only a selected few know that truth.  I am a see’er.  It sounds mystical, because I am.  And we – I’ve not knowingly met another one, but I know they exist –  are.  Mystical. It takes a village.  Bombardments, seen in the distance. See’ers are trained to be indifferent.  Not on the outside, but in.  Indifferent to indifference to…

Just Be’ing

Hold-up. Wait-a-minute. Tell me, whose play is this, yours or mine?This ain’t no act baby, this, and I mean this, is the real deal. You? You are the actor, or is ir actress , whatever the correct political phrase be, you are acting in another man’s play. Yes you Missy Mistress, in another’s man’s play. Give up your act. Own it, be it, live it, and Just Be’ing. Just Be’ing… you. Adding life to…

If I Could Live Forever

If I could live forever what would I be? Would I be a writer? a singer?  Or would I just be plain nothing, as nothing and as plain could be?  Who knows, maybe I would be just a no thing. If I could live forever, what would I do?  Would I do good, or would I do bad?  More than likely I would do both, subjectively more good than subjectively bad When I’m with her, I feel like I’ve lived a life;…

Words Don't Matter

Words don’t matter, that’s why we read them. Turning the pages, dirtying our hands with dried ink of someone else’s words. Let me read your hands, so I can tell you of your past and maybe your future. ‘Once upon a time’. That’s how every fairytale starts. Once, we had, upon a time, something to say. Upon a time, once the words mattered. But now, we have signs and symbols as replaced letters; as…
