something real
something good
something i feel
Taking Breaths of You (Originally Unfinished and Untitled) – November 1996
my emotions are streaming
but my fingers tingling
i have been leaving
on the latest train
Back to the Fold? – Tuesday 26th November 1996
is it you?
riding the dreams that i breathe
autumn leaves from changing trees
gently fall to their end
You Are a Friend – Tuesday 26th November 1996
you are a friend for the light
you are a friend for me, that’s alright
you are safe with me as i am with you
you are a friend that is right
Unsteady on My Feet – Monday 25th November 1996
so what have l left to lose
i am not feeling sorry for myself
but after everything,
i am left a little battered and bruised
Where Am I? – Monday 25th November 1996
last night, went out
and looked all around and fell about
laughing we were
suddenly realising,
that you had taken me somewhere else
Blazin’ Beat – Saturday 23rd November 1996
i rush for my tube
on my worn city feet
from the rich to the poor
husky buskers
and not such a sweet bird in a restaurant door
Changeable Times – Friday 22nd November 1996
friends come and go
occupying my affections
others disappear in the light
give us some direction
and we shall be alright
Watching Me – Friday 22nd November 1996
i have got your attention
as you are passing my direction
but it is only going to be a brief moment
i will not have your full affection
Be An Activist – Tuesday 1st October 2019
be an activist,
with a sense of self
that reminds everyone else
that truth is identity we own
it is not too late
when speaking truth to power
and push back those voices of hate
