Art
This is the second in a series of artwork I’ve been working on during the Canberra covid lockdown. I would love some feedback good or bad so share your thoughts if you have them.
Charles Bukowski
Every Friday I share a poem that I love and that inspires me. Today it’s Bukowski who taught me that poetry doesn’t have to be pretty and rhyming. I’ve read a lot his poetry and this is one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Would love to knowContinue reading “Charles Bukowski”
Reds Release
A little spark of goodness. 20/07/2021 It was Reds discharge The name they give To a beating administered The day before release A jail tradition Brutal and barbaric… As word got around Beloved as he was The yard put him through hell “You ready for your discharge mate?” He was visibly shaken When the hour came They packed intoContinue reading “Reds Release”
Realm
God bless the modern-day kings and queens of the realm. 18/7/2021 The king of the realm Must be fearless, Thoughtful and strong Ruthless and wise It’s not about being the fastest The strongest or the smartest Though he is all those things What makes him king is his mentality, It’s not enough to just beContinue reading “Realm”

Life is a breathtaking miracle. 17/07/2021 Relax, you’re in a dream In the soothing waters Of companionship and content Let my words guide you Get inside you and heal Any and all pain, Any drama that remains Feel the prisons of the mind Come crumbling, tumbling down Feel the fear and apprehension Dissolve in the light Of love, kindness and comradery For weContinue reading “Kindness and Comradery”
Nectar
Faith was rewarded when I made it to freedom. 17/07/2021 Something fierce Is in my soul They said I would die in there In the cinder block walls And I believed it too All hope was lost But something inside Just wouldn’t quit That certain something Call it resilience of spirit Kept me alive Through days darker Than most will ever know TheyContinue reading “Nectar”
Omar Musa
“Some of the most wonderous people I knew were self destructive” I’ve decided that every Friday I’m going to share some of the poetry that inspires me. The first one is a lad that grew up a stone’s throw from where I live and work in Queanbeyan NSW. An author, poet and Hip Hop artistContinue reading “Omar Musa”
Sailors Song
We are all at the mercy of the sea. 12/07/2021 Softly I sing My sailors song It’s both happy and sad Roaring and soft Proud yet humble Dashing yet shy I sing it to the stars That they might remember me As more than a rogue As more than a black sheep The melody is mysterious The rhythm isContinue reading “Sailors Song”
