Poem 33 ... Man oh man
Man oh man ..... by Derek Hinks
Man oh man what a mood I'm in
If I had windows I'd kick 'em in
If I had a cat I'd boil it's head
Then eat it's eyes with a slice of bread
Man oh man what a mood I'm in
They're gonna know where I've bin
They're gonna see a bloody trail
Of bulls balls and sucked dry snail.
They're gonna see puppy's brains
Comin down like tropical rains
They're gonna wish they'd stayed in,
Man oh man what a mood I'm in .....................
Poem 32.......... Time's end..............
Time's end by Derek Hinks.
We vowed to love did she and I
Until the end of time.
Now her love is no-longer mine
She has not broken her vow,
For though alone I sit and cry
No matter, for the end of time is now .............
Poem 30.. the morning after..
The Morning after... by Derek Hinks
The morning has arrived again
And the mouth is dry.
Sleep restrains the eye from opening.
The ear's are to lazy
To sort out the hazy sounds of the street,
Here today I shall remain,
I shall not challenge the world today..
Poem 29 Lunar...
Lunar.... by Derek Hinks.
She has a soft and mellow light
Which even the darkest hour of night
Cannot make harsh with its contrast.
Her very shape is a gentle kind
A shape surely formed by mankind
With looks of wonder in times long past
Poem 28.... Just me...
...Just me.. by Derek Hinks
Time and chance are partners old
Space and thought are as the same
Unaware of thoughts I cast the mold
And watch as a universe plays my game.
Orbs of time and spheres of chance
I spin stretch halt or dice,
What visions shall space enhance
What heat the sun or spread of ice
Shall the earth suffer or greet
Who shall conquer or admit defeat?
I am destiny, I am fate, I am life.
Within the skull, behind the eye
That which is straddles the knife
Awaiting the moment they, and my brain shall die...

Cable - (eighteen) seventy
...Like all good bands their best work was in the studio,
so sad that having learnt their "trade" they were about to record
some great stuff, how great we'll never know and can only guess...

High walls
..so this 'nothing' piece of rock in the north sea is our home,
a home of pirates, brigands and cut-throats. A home from where
we roamed the world doing all that was good and all that was bad.
We still have a monarch and we are subjects of HRH, we don't
have rights but we have 'freedoms' and they have come with a
heavy price. These freedoms have been earned over centuries
but in just a few short months we have rolled over, had our
belly's tickled and given away so many of them. We have gone
from being traders and shop keepers to being lighthouse keepers

Beth Orton - Galaxy Of Emptiness
The stars light a sky
And a galaxy of emptiness tonight
Though I'm happiest
When there's no
Reason for me to be
With no-ones expectation to weigh
Heavy on my heart
And so much hope it some times tears
Me all apart ....
Could you please knock me off my feet for a while.............

Ozymandias.... poem 26
Talking of tearing down statues...
..when dear Percy Byssh saw this bust of Ramasses 11 in the museum
in London circa 1817 he wrote ......
Ozymandias
I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said : Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the dessert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that it's sculptor well those passions read,
Which yet survive stamped on these lifeless things
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear :
" My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
Look on my works, ye mighty and despair"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Short People
"Black lives matter"no shit Sherlock..
Me? I'm a white privileged English man so of course
I must be a bigoted racist , but if the law knew what I'd
done for ............................................. they'd arrest me.
You know I recon if every person on this planet were
stripped naked then sprayed with a permanent blue
dye, had their hair shaved off and we all wore blonde
wigs, I'd give us a week at most. Then we'd find some
reason to bully a group of us. Can't think of any?
Well what about short people...............

..here hare here..
I don't know just how good this film is, but for me
there are none better. Grants performance as Withnail
is wonderful and the character of Withnail is so close
to how .............................
You need to watch the film to get the ending, but
the closing scene is heartbreaking . It's still the
only piece of Will S. that I love... here hare here...
