  • SOMETHING NEARLY

    ...happenned
    I didn't see
    split second
    change of direction
    mind a traffic jam of
    thoughts and actions

    I turn the wheel
    then saw
    vehicle passing roar
    of wheels
    doing 100, or more
    wooshing by, swinging out
    to miss my car
    lucky thing
    cause that steel pole on side of road
    had a leering grin!

  • 'FED' UP WITH THE FEDS

    here in Australia
    the locals are getting screwed over again
    most don't know it yet, but they will soon
    it's assumed they won't fight back
    that they're a powerless, broken, voiceless mob
    no English education to help them
    fight this legislation
    hard won land rights being swept out the door
    in the spin of pre-election whim
    or maybe its those men behind closed door!
    the smell of money from NT land
    its hot rocks and oily sand
    has fanned the flames of greed
    and the need
    to use the locals as pawns
    their issues as scores
    instead of blood this time there's tears on the sand

    these days corruption wears a businesslike face
    its glasses, clean shaven,
    blade cuts through
    human rights

    I watch, no fight
    overwhelmed, speechless
    mute, dumbfounded
    emptied, feeling stupid
    all my efforts fruitless,
    in vain?

    the shame!

    my heart skips a beat
    feels weak
    shocked at how 'progress'
    has peaked and now recedes
    to lower levels and leaves a dirty scum
    a shocking tribute to former heights
    what can I do now
    what might...

    this pain turn into?
    rage?
    I've filled this page
    Let's see if this great wrong can be
    turned right.

    (Australian Federal Government is today passing legislation in relation to Indigenous lands and people of the Northern Territory - in violation of human rights, without consultation - and a blatant display of racism)

  • UNgluED

    Thanks
    but not today
    stay away
    it's here again
    that darkly friend
    and
    I'm busy
    walking about
    nursing heart
    stepping over
    broken glass
    breathing out
    weighing up
    holding out
    empty cup
    trying to figure
    whats come up
    and let it out

  • quiet please...shhh

    whisper
    listen
    don't make a sound

    the silence
    is here
    it's all around

    shhhhh
    be still
    don't move

    let the moment
    gleam
    a shard of
    light might
    stream

    drop through
    between

    clouds of thought

    silence
    please

    I need
    to hear

    the silence
