Mobile Phones

Wake up kids

There are dreams to be had

No use sleeping your life away

2017


Disappearing into a screen

Like a modern day Nania

Waking up in someone else’s creativity

Is not what it seems

Without your own dreams

You’ll be left circulating memes.

2017

Life is but a dream

For westener's life is sweet

For other's, shrug, what is it?


Soon, we may be able to live

Until 150 years of age

But we still can't feed the poor


Technological wonders 

Give you anything you want

But happiness still escapes so many

Public Holiday

I see people

Wandering aimlessly

In the street

Looking at the closed shops

Wondering what to do

With their lives

Anzac Day



I mistook a poppy
For a condom. Either way
Somebody got fucked.

Aramia

There was a girl called Aramia

Whose beauty was abundantly clear

Men fell at her feet

In the boudoir, or the street

But Aramia likes big girls who are queer

He's So Mean

He's so mean

He wipes the excess jam

From the knife back 

Into the pum jam, jar.

Never mind the smoked salmon

(raised eyebrows)

He cut with the knife earlier

My Ex-Boyfriend Tells Me He Is Dying

With every loved one’s death

A hole is torn from our tapestry,

Until, there's a doily on which to hang our lives...

Blink.

Mixed Race Couple

It's raining

I want to stare out the window at it

You want to clean the house

21st Century Business

The people are getting much fatter

The corporate world cares so much

It is making all the seats smaller

AIDS Retrospective

All those dead men

Handsome lovers and old friends

In truth, forgotten


08.04.2017

 

It is what it is

no shame

nothing will be the same.


2020


That's what time does

Grows the skin back

and forms a scab

Life

I love, I am loved. I loved, I was loved,

and the sun caresses my face.

Life, you owe me nothing, we are at peace.

Life Is What Mother Teresa?

Life is an opportunity, a onetime offer.

Life is beauty, be gorgeous.

Life is a dream, dare to think big.

Life is a challenge, rise to it.

Life is a duty, be fair.

Life is a game, play nice.

Life is a promise, for keeps.

Life is sorrow, be kind.

Life is a song, a beautiful melody.

Life is a struggle, be strong.

Life is a tragedy, be brave.

Life is an adventure, enjoy it.

Life is luck, cross your fingers.

Life is too precious, you get one shot at it.

Life is life, give it your best.

Cashmere

If a man likes cashmere

Does that make him a little queer

Or does it make him a follower of fashion?

He says with a lisp

And a flick of his wrists

No dear, it's all about individual passion.

Stupid Laws

Stupid laws are a bore

It's what anal-retentives adore

But the rest of us can see right through them,

Shaking our heads at them.

Who cares if your dogs on a rock

Or if your cocks in a sock,

Or your car’s on the clock,

Or your kid’s on the snot,

Such laws are designed to give power to stupid

Small men with, er, small hands,

Women with fat glands,

People with no friends,

‘That lot’ with no trends.

The cardigan brigade,

Who are otherwise afraid.

Bad Decisions

I've been doing stupid things

Wilder than I've ever been

Even my own mind boggles at the recollection,

Things that I can't reverse

And to make matters worse

I even knew better when I made them.


But that’s half the fun of it, surely?

I say fun, but I mean living,

Feeling alive, that must be,

The thinking behind such care free

Actions that could hurt me, 

Or bring me undone.

That’s the fun.

Hipsters

The metrosexual has evolved

Into something quite bold

But when you look at them, you've got to wonder if they are smelly?

They've thrown the shavers away

So, they don't look quite so gay

But do they all have to go around looking like Ned Kelly?

Fat Nat

There was a girl from out west named Nat

Who was just so hideously fat

"I'm not fat," she’d implore

But she couldn't squeeze through any of the doors.

As her stomach hit the floor with a whack
