I fell on my knees to pray, found a demon in my safest haven. Hideous deformation of some craved being from which I’m fleeing. Footsteps behind me, torture my mind, wondering if a remedy I’ll find. Doesn’t matter where I am, this monster still finds me, inside me is he...

I first remember you from way back, when I was just a kid. You stopped your life and reached down to spend time with me. I guess I&#8217;m getting rather old now, as I look back and wistfully wish. Wish that things would go back to how they use to be. Cause you ain&#8217;t there &#8230; <a...

I may be the cream of the crop, I could be the brass at the top. I could rise up, beyond ordinary&#8217;s scope, where does it stop? Where does it stop? I could have the biggest house, best car, flashy jewels, a hollywood star. I could be the biggest, richest, best-known near n&#8217; far. But...

I know this little guy, he stands, oh so, about knee high. He’s got the cutest dimples on his cheery face, Got a smile that lights up the whole place. He’s got the knack for chatter, he invites himself if you won’t : “I’ll have that muesli bar please cause my brother don’t.” Suppose to … Keep...

Sitting in you chair, Glasses on, studying the world, You’re the armchair expert. Let the fanfare and flags unfurl. - Yeah, you’re the expert, you sitting there, You know it all, the judge of everything, You been there, you’ve been everywhere. Tried everyone’s shoes, then thrown ‘em in the bin...

You wanted the world, the fastest and the best. The largest, richest house and all the rest. You wanted the crowds and their butter lips. One premiership is only the iceberg’s tip. Though our beauty tis only skin deep, We try our absolute hardest to keep. We forget the very reason we are here...

The huge steel walls were rising above her. A ring of white surrounded her, Little isles of white dotted the plain about her: barren patches of desolation with no living thing in sight. Her reflection warped, caving up across her in the steel with alien-life features. Stuck inside...

I’m a dark seeker, creature of the night. I scream and run when exposed to light. Here, cloaked in darkness, you cannot see The filth and the sores that plague me. Yeah, I know that they’re killing me inside But I don’t want others to see them so I run and hide. Though the remedy is always...

Hey everyone, here’s my pitiful attempt at writing some humour. Just enjoyed my days off. This time I had Sunday and Monday off. Yes, now do any of you know about Mondanitis? Because I suffer from it big time! And that’s my topic. I am to prove that I suffer from Mondanitis. Mondanitis tends...

Got a grim smile on my lips. Wearing a stoic face that doesn’t fit. They tell me it’s no use, what was will be. Nothing changes, tis like the tides of the sea. They told me the signs, what was going to happen, Still hung on, even as the hurricane was shaping. Got stung, should’ve got the message...

<p>Sitting here staring out a bus window,<br />Watching all the cars and people below.<br />Hustling here hustling there,<br />Just another work day&#8217;s fare.<br />Faces, all grey and stressed, wondering if they passed the test:<br />Dark rings and slumped shoulders, the defeated and in need...

Sitting here staring out a bus window, Watching all the cars and people below. Hustling here hustling there, Just another work day’s fare. Faces, all grey and stressed, wondering if they passed the test: Dark rings and slumped shoulders, the defeated and in need of rest. Sitting here doing...

You’re just talking, they’re just lies I can see it in your eyes. But here I am, still lingering, Though you don’t really care, you’re just playing. My friends, they warn me to stay away, And every time, this is what I say: There’s nothing alive inside Deep in me, just a grave you’ll find! What...

Clock hits twelve, hit the switch. Turn on the bass, feel it lift. Yeah, turn it up, today’s long gone, But you can’t keep us down! Plectrum hits six strings, Feel the soul grow some wings. Up far away from this misery, Lift up into the galaxy. Shake to the beat inside, What’s cooped up, let it...

Hey everyone, haven’t written much, so thought I’d put this up. Does anyone know what a hit merchant is? Well, in rugby league, it’s someone who goes looking for big hits. Ok, ok. I’m one of the smallest guys, so my tackles aren’t actually that big. But they generally are savage enough. We...

Hey you, stuck dreaming of your perfect world, But when they come, letting chances drop cold. Hey you, wishing for a perfect ending, But when it  comes, you’re never daring. You kept getting stuck cold out here, So now you live in a fairyland far from here. Stuck with your head in fantasy, While...

Just recently I was chatting with a friend about movies. This movie, that movie. Ok? You wanted names? Dark Knight, Dark Knight Rises, Batman Begins, Avengers, the Book of Eli, Man on Fire, etc. Anyway, we got on the topic of violence. Yep. Then came the million dollar question: Does watching...

Hey, it’s me. Got a kevlar vest ornating my chest, Walking a battlefield, with scars only partly healed. Bullets and rockets explode, as the dead’s bones corrode. But I got a kevlar vest ornating my chest. Hey! Got nothing to fear right? I walk the alleys at night. I’m a gun-toting machine, stop...

In the bottom of an old greasy swamp, lies a golden eagle, it’s shine now covered in grime. It lies here, forgotten witness of the brave few who dare to venture where none ever do. This golden eagle, doth many scars bear, tis many grooves where swords did tear. Came they from a terrible fight...

Watching you stand next to me, your little hands clutch my fingers as you say, Piggy back, give me a piggy back. Really, I just can’t resist a request said like that. Pick you up, place you on my shoulders, carry you through the bush, over boulders. Hear you squeal as the branches fall in your...
