Sleep Please

Sleep please.

Escape my boy escape.
Elope my girl elope.
Dissent my boy descent.
Relent of course recant.
Close your eyes then float
To ‘relax’ world, 
And spend all those ‘tired’ dollars 
On zed beds and sleeping boats.
Visit the stores in dream town,
Supermarket dash for REM gowns.
Count the sheep on slumber farm,
Counting on, whilst keeping calm.

Past and Future


Past and Future
Did you ever write a love song
That you couldn't quite forget
Did you ever read the words of
A letter you had kept
if the morning comes
And its still in your head

Close your eyes
Let the magic show begin
You realise
That the words are colouring
Just relax, open up
Let the memories fall in
For your dreams of the past
Shape your future

Don't look back
Because your dreams will point the way
Push and process
File the good and bad away
Rest your head now
Only you are here to stay
For your dreams of the past
Shape your future

No Picnic

No Picnic

We want to avoid the mistakes 
that we made the last time
and go on to the other side of the tree
to see just what we could find
think of the things that we could remember.
A side of the family that we could see
A time of our lives when we ate cucumber.
Cucumber sandwiches tea, toast and sunshine
the smell of mown grass 
shard light rays through branches
and the family well oiled in the fields. 
My orangy, yelllow colour, green salad
and the tan lines, the cakes on the plates assam, 
the sun and the moon just in our time
the falling of light colour skirts on the grass
I could be ever so further from happiness that visits so fast.
never had the money or breeding never had the visions of class...

That First Night

When I wound up in the cold that night
I thought my life had really lost some light
But then through the dark came your vision
Of rightful need hope and decisions
Of what we should do next 
After the pleasantry questions had commenced
And we fell into a warm bed after wine
Music song and chat, do you remember that
Dining on the fat of the land and listened to bands
do you remember the morning that 
Followed, holiday photos, smiles and eyes
Following each other around then heading for ground
in the fallout from the night, 
Waiting for each others bells, the phone just might.

Sweet Sydney 2

Sweet Sydney

Sydney saved my kidneys
My liver and my heart cos
Ive been a drinking
And Ive come really far.
Ive sat and chilled out
But I’m getting really restless
The boredom starting flatness.
Find it very stagnant, find it
Quite repugnant, in some ways,
Some days and in some plays.
The drama’s pretty tedious
Too hot to comfortably handle.
I need to see more country
And I'll know Ive really landed.

Watching the Street


Watching the street

Sit and watch the neighbours
Through the window
watching each others stars.
Sit and watch the neighbours
Spying cruelly
Watching through their bars.
Sit and watch the neighbours
Living slowly
Washing all their cars.
Sit and watch the neighbours
Gossip friendly
Turn their backs and slag each other off
For they are not the loving kind.

Listen to the the streets steps talking
To each other,
In their blackened yards.
Old birds and garden dwellers,
Telling stories.
Spinning thinning yarns.
All the crazy lying,
Stories growing
Spreading to afar.
Cannot find a reason
Why miserable people,
Turn their backs and slag each other off,
For they are not the loving kind.

Dinner Doreen

Dinner Doreen

On Monday I like my comfort stew
on tuesday I like my hot chilli
on Wednesday we like a bolly
and thursday sonething special for our tea
On Friday we must have pizza, 
chinese, curry or thai
On Saturday we like whatever 
on sunday roasts for us to dine
roasters and yorkshire pudding, 
three veg and some brown gravy,
deliciously maddening,.
Some days we have a salad, 
some days we have no greens, 
But simply and lovely living
is easy as this doreen....

Finance


Watch me go into the bank over yonder
Watch me see the teller there
Let me talk to him whilst I am browsing
Is he the money seller man of strange wonder

‘Can I buy some money?’
‘With what are you going to buy’
‘The money that you will give me
Is the money that I will try’

So he gave me some money to purchase the goods
Buy some money from the branch for a ranch
And he said that I really should return there
Come see him in one month for some lunch

Returned did I in a short while
To see the man who was nice
But they said that he no longer worked there
And they refused my hard earned cup of rice

Which was all that I had for my money
It was all I could show in the end
They said that my house looked just stunning
They said that they really shouldn’t lend

So they stole all my money and possessions
They took away my self respect
They threw away all hope of our future
They conned, stole and delivered my end.

No Tears

No Tears

When you came round
A new person you have found 
I was All on my own
Just waiting and prone
To the nice things you say
When you come round this way
All sweet and all pure
I am totally really sure.

Its time you are gone
When I see your none
Of the things I first thought
When Our time was so short
Just together round here
I lost all my fear
No fright and no tears………..

Tonight im too tired

Tonight I’m too Tired

When sleep takes its toll
And I’m feeling rather older
Than usual today
Or should I say today.
I feel like my bones are 
Feeling the strain
It’s not really pain 
But just a dull heated
Bake, a low canceling
Ache, throbbing in the everlasting
Times of beer, lager
And lemon and limes,
Easy going, ever ready,
Battery social times.
I’m staring to stay awake
Bowling over all 
The frozen shakes
And driving my jelly lakes
In a belly of pizza,
Oh Lisa, oh golly gosh,
Sit down naked
Nude and bare bodied,
Bottom shape, eyes they gape
I adore complexion coloured. 
Bed is now available,
No time for mind inevitable,
Time to sleep away fatigue
As I have put
To many questions 
to a simple tired
Body, and too many tasks
I asked of ,
A simple tired mind. 

New Job

New Job in the Morning AND WORK

New job on the morn
After a long gratuitous yawn
Shower, teeth, wash aswell
Scrub, tea, brek, tea, news
Emails, more, more tea and thoughts
Glance at the view, thoughts, tea
News, sit, flick, pick up the keys.
