Unreported NewsSongs from a life, sounds like the blues,
microwave fries, pot noodle, stews,
dead on two legs, only half-nine,
saying yes, to the overtime,
this months rent and the kids' new shoes.
Paying forward, paying your dues,
when there isn't much...

WRITTEN IN PSYCHEDELIC INKWRITTEN IN PSYCHEDELIC INK
Wrongly chosen words convey naught
Creating impressions of the wrong sort
Even when inspiring lines deny empathy
Especially showing contempt for simile
Causing bloody battles to be hard fought
It’s errors despite what has been taught

Stelliferous
Stelliferous the stars o’erspread
that lace the heavens overhead
and sparkle plentifully bright
to grace the atramental night
when face of lumined sol has fled.
Sidereals the skies embed
bejeweling where dreamers tread
to render poets’ fancies quite
stelliferous.
With wonderment the welkin’s wed

Ephemera
Ephemera, a short lived life
of cherished times before the strife
meandered into detritus
with depth enough to bury thus
beneath the memories with spite.
Photographs torn up by his wife,

And it will live with me until
The end of days, when that arrives
As we account for all our lives
In that moment one pays the bill

Spiralised westerns are not the sameRoll the credits on what's-his-name,
walks like Eastwood, talks just like Wayne,
saddled up on his trusted steed,
pistol packing, sure he'll succeed,
stealing the sunset, final frame.
Red carpet ready, for acclaim,
didn't notice the spotlights change,
when he signed up,...

Eclipse of Sun
Eclipse of Sun is quite a sight
since for a while day looks like night
when moon moves ‘twixt the Earth and Sun
and over light the dark has won
or seemingly in visioned sleight.
That syzygy alignment might

A Call For Peace NowThis is the news, a dream of peace,
an echo from the Middle East,
where children cannot understand,
the broken bones of broken lands,
their only hope, for war to cease.
Every imam, rabbi and priest,
can hear the loss...

The HitchhikerThis highway's mine, goodbye to Jayne,
so long, farewell, Virginia Plain,
strife was yesterday's heavy load,
life is tomorrow's open road,
it's time to hitchhike once again.
Heading where songs, don't sound the same,
and no-one stops to ask your name,
they'll...

Hauntingly cold on the church pew
You spoke of forgiveness and fear
To a divine spirit, not here
We were quiet that winter blue
Seeking answers of what is true
In sadness, i...

Winter Hill Sunday - 5th September 2021When Sunday came, with strong footwear,
warmed by the words of Bolton’s mayor,
from Halliwell to Smithills Moor,
we followed those who walked before,
and fought for access, just and fair.
Anticipation everywhere,
one thousand hopes that filled the air,
in celebration...
