Just for fun

I'm not serious oh not me
I'm not serious anyone can see
There is no commitment
No long term husbandry
I'm not looking for something serious
I am just for fun

Just make me up
Take me up then throw me away
I am just the trash you find
Blowing on the motorway
I am of no matter no gravity or weight
If you let me go I'll simply float away into space
I don't want no commitment
I'm not looking for a serious affair
This is no kind of business
I come with no contract of care
I could be your boyfriend your girlfriend your great despair
I'm the hope you keep locked up
I'm not a someone
I'm just for fun

A deeper love

A deeper love
I'm looking for
Not the kind that comes knocking at your door
Not the sleight
Not the letter stamp
Stuck on with
The edge of one's tongue
Nor the spit in the corner
Of her mouth
A deeper love
Is what I'm about

I'm looking for a feeling true
As deep as oceans
As they are blue
I'm looking for a reeling out
Of the line
I'm casting my net much further
This time
To where the shoals swell
In the pacific rim
I'm asking for a deeper love
I'm asking it of him

I'm looking for that one love
That you can't get enough of
That well that never dries up
A deeper love to fill my cup

I'm asking him for a favour
I'm asking for a life to savour
And sip and sup
At the brim
Its for a deeper love
I'm asking him

Sometime to breathe in fields of green
Some sparkling river
Some vibrant stream
To rejuvenate the man within the machine
And throw off these chains
That have been keeping me mean
A deeper love, a deeper love
I'm asking for a deeper love

women on scooters

Women on scooters
Not using computers
Hair flying in fluters
With their pursuitors
They look at us cute as
Can be
Women on scooters
With their suitors
Running car booters
Behind their rebooters
Carrying their pewter
Potteries
Women on Scooters
following looters
Raiding the shops wearing track suits as if
They are feminine or are they neuters?
Gender Equality of
Women on scooters

Men on scooters are not for me
I'm not a fan of their rights to be free
They look like big kids who need to grow up
They wear dark shades and say what sup
When they get to work at their desk jobs
They lift up the phone and say:
Have a nice day and other financial stuff

Lend me some of your time

Lend me some of your time
Let me borrow it
Spring's swallows flit
The Question is asked
But no answer is fit
To follow it
Only let me borrow it
And I'll give it back with interest

Lend me some of your time
And I will give it back to you
The clock tower chimes
Lend me some of your time

Time is all we  have to give
A time to die a time to live
If you lend him yours
He'll lend you his
Time is all we have to give

Lend me, send me some of your time
I promise I'll return it
When the stars align

Lend me some of your sweet time
And I'll lend you some of mine

Between finger and thumb

They take away your arrows
Your running heart
They hand you a gun
And say kill with this
It is easier, better
They take away your life
Your living
Your prey your kill
They package it on supermarket shelves
Ready for the till
You hand over your cash
You earnt tapping numbers into a key board
That go around the world
And back to your thumb
They travel that inch of distance
Between finger and thumb
That would be ten thousand miles of walking
Of exploring for someone
They take away your life
They hand you the gun
And you hold it
You don't weigh it
Because it is too heavy
With the weight of worlds
Undone
You pull the trigger
It is that easy
The distance between the finger
And the thumb

And the bullet travels
Around the world in a blink of an eye
And it hits you smack
In the back of your head
And then you die
They take away your life
When they hand you the gun
When they hand you
your degree
When they tell you you are free
To be someone
They take away that inch of life that was yours
Like a bug
Squashed between
Finger and thumb

Modern Living

They took away your life

When they built the bicycle

You no longer rode a horse

They took away the animal, and they gave you a car

And said now you must work like a horse

To afford your car

Because your car will save you time

And give you a life

They took away your job lifting boxes in the factory

And put a robot there in your place

Then they told you get educated, work from home

You’ll have more life, more leisure time

When you work on a computer

Controlling the robots that now do your job

Telling the computer what to do

You’ll be better paid

So you can afford a better life

You go to a gym called ‘Life’

You buy life-time membership

You buy a lifestyle

You buy your life back

So that you can exercise it on machines

That look like horses

Which is what you would have had for free if

In the first place they hadn’t taken away

Your horse

Poetry to Take Away

He took to his heels
He took it to heart
The way that he feels
The way that it starts
Just take to the airways
Take to the stars
Take over the byways
Take over the cars

Take off your garments
Rip off your clothes
Take off somebody
In somebody's pose
Take to drinking
Take it apart
For the sake of thinking
For the sake of Art
Take all he's giving
Take what is yours,
Go make a living
Go take the doors
The wheel is broken
So is the horse
Take the horse to water
Take the bull by the horns
Take me away in a hand cart
And take my pay but don't take my part

Take it from me, you're better off out
Take it from her, she knows all about
Take it with milk, with sugar, with stout
Take it before a meal, take it quick without doubt
Take it easy, or you can take it hard
Take it cheesy, take it from me, here take my card

Take it as it comes, take your tum tums
Take him to task
Take off the mask
Take the iron from rock
Take the wine from the cask
Take to the wing
Or take to the fields
Take everything
Don't take what's fake
Take what's real
Take it with a pinch of salt
Take the wheel
Its a cinch, its an assault
On the senses of what one feels
Take it on the chin
Take to your pins
Take me away from all these visions of sin
Take a snap, take shape
Its a rap, its a take
Take the tape and play it on
Take that, take two
Take five,
And then you're gone
