life just gives you pity sex

i say if it ain’t happen to you yet 
it’s gonna happen to you very soon

and that’ll be the end of the honeymoon

now ain’t that the truth 
i said life just gives you pity sex 
before leaving you 

well it don’t matter if your living rich 
but it might be quicker if you’re poor 
it don’t matter if you’re good looking 
or your face looks better behind a door

before leaving you 

you’ll  try playing the immortality clause 
but there ain’t no forgiveness in life 
you won’t be  getting no encore  applause 
no matter your deeds or righteous strife 

yeah ’cause life just gives you pity sex 
now ain’t that the truth 
i said life just gives you pity sex 
before leaving you

Treading water

He exists
on a lost island
A beardless
clueless hermit
stewing away
in a hippy
cauldron

on this inhabited
adrift island
He is their guru
The king rat
The ark sinker

Deep
Inside the kings
Grotto
Red wine flows
Through urinal
Tracks
Pot luck
Last suppers
Are Crushed
By false teeth
Karaoke
Poetry
Its Life read
Slowly
Then
Methodically
Crucified

i do not attend
i walk on puddles
past the cave
past the stalking
hearse
up on ice bricks
motor running
for a quick
breakdown

i am not
neighborly
i meditate
at my bus shelter
as the funeral
possession
passes over

his apostles
implore me
to perform
one final
exorcism
one final
roll
of the rune stone
To release
Their redeemer
before i return
to the mainland
but the tide
tis on the turn
this netting
sunset

i cannot walk
on sand grains

miracles
cannot wait
an encore

You

it was cruelness
to have me fall in love with
you

i was broken
but i fell together for
you

i learnt to breath
my hand resting on the belly of
you

i filled my mind
till all my hearts beats were for
you

i was stupid
i believed the love word from
you

i became blind
from lies your eyes covered for
you

i was hungry
i ate red poisoned kisses from
you

i became sick
i vomited in fear of losing
you

i woke a waif
the reality of dreaming with
you

i am sad now
because eternity knows i love
you

it is cruelness
to fall forever in love with
you

Windows

Should I see
through windows
Abstact art
A lone
Mouldy sun
Panoramic pictures
Under the flames shade

Climate change
Corrupted
Cold modern day
cavepersons
Struggling with survival
Superstitious darkness evolved
God’s flayed
Their bodies converted
To nut houses

Delusions ascending
skyrocketing
Towards Armageddon clouds
Exploding
Third world style
Drizzling
Narcissistic entrails
Over star gazing lovers
Picnicking in yonder lands

Should I see
Into the windows
Of your soul
A bloody abattoir
Unable to satiate
A golden parasitoid
God’s wrath
Consuming
Your Id

Solitude Confinement (my epitaph)

i entombed myself
so no one
can see
me decomposing
as trashcan poetry

The lesson

i was ten
when i was
taught
i wasn’t in tune
with other people
that
was when i was kicked
out of the school choir
and
not a moment to soon
for i could have been trained
to
sing in key
to follow
so
