new varied work

Alien Virus!

Get ill take the meds

Feel the virus take over

Part of you like you

Never knew possible

From your toes to head

Via ears and balls

You belong to the virus

Changing you from

A man called John

Who likes Pink Floyd

And drinks cider in the pub

Will his pals see the changes?

They will be targeted next

By an alien virus

Hungry for humans!

 

 

 

coast road drive

i used to drive up and down the coast road thru those north wales towns

playing sisters of mercy vision thing album full volume in my mk3 escort

it was summer 1991 i was 19 with no cares in the world

gone away with my pals for a weekend away took time out

felt my mental health issues biting me no galfriend

stopping me getting a galfriend or living my life

remembering january 1989 getting the big fat gal pregnant

the ptsd shattering my mind how it destroyed me

only music got me thru it still does decades on

driving up and down that coast road it changed things

nick the goth you'll be ok changed but things will pass

just listen to the music keep it fast and focused

drop the bastards if you’re meant to live you will

unlike those who embrace negativity and perish

there's a difference of a victim and a survivor

remember the old songs they're right now more than ever

 

 

 

Three Hours

Go change job a right old performance!

Leave for new opportunities

You want more money this is given

Yet he tells you it’s let than you get now

This is no good but let’s proceed

And see how it goes who knows

The job maybe a winner rather than

A duffer which it seems to be

We will know in three hours’ time

 

 

 

Bootleg

Use the bootleg illegal software

It does the job word processing

Just close the annoying dialog box

Away you go with your illicit Word version

Write a poem a song a story a thesis

What will you write today?

 

 

 

Weather Alert

We are warned of the coming flood

Yet some still want to hike

Others want to swim in the river

 

Some climb up the dry valley

The sky is blue here

No worries we think

 

Till the flood water hits

At 200 kilometres an hour

You'd of wished you were home

 

Reading gaming or seeing films

Not broken in bits by the flood

All that brown turgid angry water

You still wanna go outside?
