Rough Edges do you really want to mess around with me? i was emotionally cut off by a parent at … More

i wonder –
if they think about the loss
there is plenty of time
to count the cost

ring for change
because,
we are marching,

lighting candles
in a fireplace i found
being a best man,
in for a penny, in for a pound

it feels like with age,
there also comes a weight
i think in all seriousness
memories become a gate

i will punch the punchline,
to your funniest joke
i will hold my head up high
and never let the river of friendship run dry

here we go,
once again
i know what it means to me
and the less enlightened
they suggest the BNP

head propped up by pillows
i could believe,
reading wind in the willows
