The Edge

Photo by Aviz Media on Pexels.com When you’re gazing over the edge and demons whisper all your failures When the mirror of the world shows you all the things you aren’tDon’t take that step Because the devil is the liar and social media has a filter Popularity over character –  that shit’s off kilter Gazing over the edge you don’t need toContinueContinue reading “The Edge”

Toiling

Purchase hoodie here Quietly toiling breaking through stone Not as good as some but with everything I am Work, work, work till I blister my handsforget to eat –  burn out from neglect I get my coin – far less than hours worked but we all do that here so someone else can get rich And I do okayquietly toiling until someone elseget creditedContinueContinue reading “Toiling”

Belle Blu (Collab)

http://flickerofthoughts.com/2026/08/06/belle-blu/ Never have I seen a girl as stunning as sheby the shoreline of the summer Celtic Sea.Held captive by the golden sun shining in her hair,I hoped, as she walked, she’d see me standing there.I wanted to know her name,such blinding beauty in a blue daisy sundress.Would she link arms with me for aContinueContinue reading “Belle Blu (Collab)”

Nameless Sunset

Photo by Brett Sayles on Pexels.com I watched the quiet sunset from my tiny balcony– no dusty pinks or vibrant oranges Is that an ‘icy grey’? Does that blue have a name?Would one call that ‘not quite purple?’ I wished I’d a painter with me to name the subtle greys, fading blue and whispers of purple Instead,ContinueContinue reading “Nameless Sunset”

Fake? (with audio)

I promised myself this wouldn’t happen but I’m thinking dirty thoughts about you again (oh shit) Is this a fake romance? You seduced me with your words Flashes of heat warming my whole body Why are you killing me? You seduced me with your brown eyes sneaking into my dreams and all my fantasies Why are you using me? Whilst I fall into feelings allContinueContinue reading “Fake? (with audio)”

Coloured Glass

You come to me wearing rose-coloured glasses oblivious to their weight on your nose In rapture, you praise me In awe, you list my qualities transcribing everything you see in detail I’m… flawless rosy sunshine I shy away from your praise and wonder– I know my faults too well I’m not the woman you describe Yet you grin through a pink haze confidently telling me you seeContinueContinue reading “Coloured Glass”

Safety

Trigger Warning: sexual violence Are there any safe places out there? Women don’t feel safe walking at nightLast week, a woman was raped three times and almost drowned during the morning light Are there any safe men out there? The victims of Epstein and churches scream on the streets Their abusers, where are they?O, protected by the otherContinueContinue reading “Safety”
