After reading some of the other poetry on this site i was inspired to post some of my own!
Untitled
The masked dancer looks to the horizon
Toes hanging from the edge of the cliff
He whispers
Cameron looks on from far afield
His lips soft
A raindrop from above will not unsettle
He knows not what can be stopped
What cannot be he is well aware
He suffers for none
The mask of gibbons finally falls
There is no crash
only silence
This is just something i wrote a while back during a confused period in my life. Thanks for reading!

Very interesting poem I wish I knew exactly what it all meant. I do like the precarious situation presented in the first stanza and the undramatic close in the last. Very nice balance indeed.

getaway
the hook dangles
waiting for a bite, a snap
but not from the mature
Ugly heart
spitting at what he once was
breathing
hairs stand on end
with anger
with fear
with or without
initials CG in a forearm of bronze
ting ting ting
the wok becons

i wrote that one this afternoon in a heated passionate spurt.

the getaway is another nice poem. I can feel the anger oozing through or maybe it is actually regret? Too young to fool the mature but too old to be what he once was. The work must continue.

Untitled
blood runs from the entrance of the cave
frequently visited by an unwelcome stranger
a place he calls home
a voice echos inside his head
the words lose meaning
"where are you?" he calls "CAMERRROOOOOOONNNNNNNN"
The cave starts to rumble
but eventually stops
there is no one to hear it
The stranger returns home
he warms himself by the fire
his hands stay cold
"how was your day bruce?"
bruce is his wifes name
oppression no more
This is another very confused piece i wrote during a difficult period.

Very good piece again and aye quite confusing. I am not even sure if home is the cave or both the cave and another home. Either way it works. Very powerful imagery at least for me because I can imagine the setting in the cave.

This is something i found today i wrote over a year ago
Drip, drip, drip
the tap leaks inside my head
no energy to move
let it drip
Drip, drip, drip
my heart is bleeding
the puddle in my tin can soul
it echoes
Drip, cam, gib
my eyes are leaking
leaking out the pain and the hurt
love not returned
Drip drip
the fire burns
i met a boy
i call him jessica
Drip drip drip
the condensation drips
from the four waters
i just ordered
drank a quater
crushing dried out sausage
with pestle and mortar

keep me young
keep me old
do a mad remix
the depth of the heart may sink
