The Bigot Within

Posted on November 11, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

There’s nothing like the openness of the bigot held within; that dictates to us what’s right or wrong before our thoughts begin. It’s always so high and mighty because we hold it so; that bigot tells us what we think, … Continue reading →

Words from another place

Posted on November 10, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

There is a way, a winding way from deepest fear to light of day. There is no way, there is no path; it leads away from comfort’s hearth. It is so clear we cannot see the way that takes us … Continue reading →

When Waters Rise

Posted on November 2, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

Gaia’s Worth

Posted on October 30, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

To the world within and world without, I often wonder what it’s all about. When I sit and look upon a tree I wonder how this beauty can be; how can this come from a simple seed? But then I … Continue reading →

The Final Joke

Posted on October 28, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

Life is simply death not done a race that’s run but never won. The toil of moving through each day thinking there’s no better way. To finally die is a release; at last a soul that’s left in peace. My … Continue reading →

End Of Days

Posted on October 25, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

I’ll tell you the truth, I will not lie; the planet’s fucked, we’re all gonna die. We’ve gone too far, there’s no reprieve our world now dies – no time to grieve. We didn’t listen when they spoke; we dismissed … Continue reading →

Our behemoth

Posted on October 24, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

One foot on the throttle and one one the brake; how much more madness can this planet take? The whole world’s going at a breakneck pace; it’s not human kind it’s a human race. It’s all Helter Skelter as we … Continue reading →

Posted on October 20, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

The Doomsday clock’s pendulum swings; in the West we clutch our precious things. The world is burning, we don’t care about this planet we’ve stripped bare. Though some may see what is to come our whole damn world is somehow … Continue reading →

A Bitter Brew

Posted on October 19, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

Without laughter there are only tears as I look around at all life’s fears. I feel the Planet’s deep distress at what we’ve done – this bloody mess. And so my humour bubbles up to overflow my sadness cup. I … Continue reading →

My Gods

Posted on October 18, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

The Gods I face are mine alone; it’s from my acts that they have grown. I stand before them morn and night for Judgement in their precious sight. But though they may be Gods so real ‘tis with my own … Continue reading →

ME

Posted on October 14, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

I walk, at times, through city streets; the sound of madness my heart meets. The madness of a world gone wrong; the music of the ‘streeters’ song. So many souls without a home; doomed by us to simply roam the … Continue reading →
