Worldview


Dont hide behind counsellor speak. It is a denial of your emotional being. A distancing from the real. A device that you would not want used on yourself. A worldly innovation to control. A farce of psychological proportions. I hear hostility. I must advise. I have no connection to the pain. I am sanitary. I am counsellor. I am away from here.

Dont solve problems. That is rich world. Compartmentalising life. Sponging up the goo.

Pray. On all dimensions.

The truth of the new.


Have you noticed how good the first novel can be?
Raw as marrow, an impact, uplifting.
A warm bath of a tale. Time well spent.
Like the prayers of a new believer.


I heard the birds praising their creator this morning. So clear.
I whistled the same tune as I dressed my son.
I asked him if he heard the birds. He said Yes.
I asked him what they were saying. He said they were talking to the sun.
I gave him a hug.


Self determination comes as an assault
Giving away power to the new adult.
This causes conflicts, stumbling back with a jolt.
The new mare is standing no longer a colt.
Lies and doubts are seeded from power.
The status quo, the rule of the hour.
The taste of freedom can never be be sour.
So let go and embrace and live with no bower.

better is best


The smoky waitress cuts the cheese along side.
Low slung waist is at nose height.
The couple in the car behind me krumping synchronised.
The music coming from the stereo is mine.
The walkers outside step in time.
A colleague asked about their mother says she’s downstairs.
Coincidence or a sign.

The ragged edge of love is being hemmed.
The contact has come back.
The work ahead is always there.
The love of another is the call.

Tomorrow is a brighter day.
Stress is less and life works itzelf out
around strain and rest.
The time to live and enjoy the best.

Muse me.


Have you noticed how there are no new stars being born?
Do you look for meaning in a paradise forlorn.
Are you compus mentus in your memory forge.
Do you keep from looking at the edge of the gorge.

Bleak is the life without any torch.
Keep your love close and your mat on the porch.
For strangers are angels and demons are thoughts.
Mechanisations in life stories are scorched.

So take what you can and give what you ought.
Remember the gifts that you have been taught.
Love is forever and ever is nought.
Laughter and laughter and laughter be sought.

Choose anything.


God Good earth bad
Earth Good people bad
People Good hell bad
Its always the monkey or the gun.


Hanging on to the ragged edge of love
Looking up to the gifts above
What I don't care for won't be taken
All my opposites step long forsaken.

Tense new worlds
Hum life dark strife
Slit of horizon beyond my closed eyes
Love against love in a why clouded sky.

Mercury sifts for a despondent heart
I like the smell of a new start
Honest as a lie is kind
Crucify me now, I am blind.

Fury blonde upon my duress
Cut the glass of hell princess
For God is too beautiful I can't say goodbye
So I hold on to love and in it I hide.

Donate another colour.


The deserts cry out for words like these
and when they come the Alhumbra freeze.
We are racing from different fears
that one moment when we sear
a doubt by grasping the ember of Jesus
and squash that ember to our hearts
going about our daily disease
as elegant eagles such as these
seize bent legs along the Levant
and aqua tors to mountains lent
upon the equator that orange scent
where all are poor and agonies vent
to pour their oil, one long crescent.
Loyal to a monster of a different colour.

Elegant eagles along the Levant.


Because love is stronger than evil.
Love forgives, evil doesn't.
Love has grace, evil doesn't.
Evil has truth but love has truth and beauty.
Love is eternal, evil is temporary.
Love is divine.
Before evil there was love.
Where did love come from?
If you think too hard the belief falls apart.
So there is faith to support the love that gave us faith.
Love doesn't exist unless required.
Evil broods waiting for its demise.
Evil is easy, love requires work.
Evil occupies life while love rectifies earth.
Love is the desert when the oasis runs dry.
Up from the sand how our falleness sighs.
So, I keep silence beside me and laughter nearby.
