    Welcome, site refurbished May 2017.

    Be Aware

    ​

    Death's fragment is our inheritance, 

    bashed through time from bard to preacher, 

    seldom does our raga of hate weaken,

    in this snivelling watered-down version of

    living, we take on board as something precious,

    defend with armies: fighting since the first

    erected cross, stained the last bleeding hill. 

    ​

    I wonder and I wonder, as the stars must wonder,

    why they gravel the universe in such prolific

    design, or the crab wonders, as his wounded meat

    smarts, too polluted to eat, he can only scuttle

    and remain infertile in less cluttered company. 

    ​

    It's not hard to slip into despair, forget the reason

    why we are here and substitute our own ideas,

    intricate laws, too intricate to maintain; they are

    changed and changed, but who do they really

    protect, and what has been protected?

    ​

    The one-winged bird cannot perfect its flight, 

    nor the half-tailed fish its style, as we perfect ours

    while wrecking the ball, slack-jawed when the big

    mushrooms spores - be aware of that thief in the night.
