It’s cold out here And very dark
-
Humdrum street in a humdrum town Do the zombie shuffle through your humdrum day
-
I was walking through the green fields of heaven with the Lord, And He asked me,
-
-
Face to face now, my nemesis and I Another chapter in the struggle that’s gone on all our lives
-
You’ve hurt me Do you know that? Did you even notice
-
Lord, oh how I am weak! A foolish bundle of pride and fear
-
Fire burns. Cooling ash scatters to the wind. Egg cracks. Golden wings beat the night skies.

He was always one for the grand gestures 'Romantic' she called it, with a sigh and a flutter

Hurricane tears through ripping apart

The traveller embarks, lets loose the mooring rope and floats adrift on the tide

In the waning of the year the Earth bursts into flame

Grey tents pitched in grey dust
Meagre protection against harsh sun and bitter night
-
"Smile!" they chirp, plastic grins on plastic faces
Cheery demands made to friends, colleagues, complete strangers
-
This New Year Lord, I pray
that people learn to live with one another
-
There's always someone who wants to rain on your parade
Nose in the air, gleeful shaking of the head,
-
A cold night
Winter's coming
-
You need to listen
to pay attention and understand
-
Paint Your light against my darkness
Shine bright sun against my night
-
Sun going down, night gathers round
I plunge into darkness and silence profound

Ten years old
Mum's in bed
-
We think it's achievable
An effort of human will
-
Lord, today I ask:
that I accept rebuke and do not seek for praise
-
Don't blame yourself, my friend
The fault is mine. I gladly take it all.

Approaching the gate
Don't know what's on the other side
-
There's a little moonlight through the window
though not a lot to see.
-
Standing in a hospital room
watching you sleep

Golden eyes regarding me
A million emotions glow in their light

A fallen leaf is blown about by the wind
Buffetted by all the elements
-
Between potential and accomplishment
Between thought and action
-
Here I sit, with my headphones
and listen and speak, and listen and type
-
Hatred, anger, shouting, screaming
Rage for this and rage for that
-
I've been meaning to scream
You know, a real angry yell
-
Cloudless skies
Year after year
-
A stony path, a starlit night
A frost-tipped chill in the air
