Mind.

Disillusionments to reality,

Sud et Ouest,

Home and grievance,

Much must phase.

Questions to repercussions,

Nostalgia and disillusionment,

Je ne comprends pas,

Mais, pourquoi?

Adolescence and yesteryears,

Qu’est que c’est?

Hate and fear,

Relaxation undefeated.

Frustration feted,

Joyeux, joyeux, joyeux,

Time and space,

Surrealism to nostalgia.

D’accord.

Explanations explored,

Years will bind,

Hearts will mind.

Je ne sais pas.

Life and angst,

Translated lives,

Angst and memories.

Joy,

Anger,

Bliss,

Ça va bien?

Oui, certainement monsieur.

STOP.

Pessimism to reality,

Grievance to joy,

Tears to life,

Secrets to mistakes.

Love.

Ah oui, amour..

talk.

Toothpaste and comb,

Tea towels and cinnamon,

Notes and novels,

Oh, nostalgia.

Wild sugar and mercury,

Pasta and ketchup,

Rock and stone,

Confusion – pause. 

Numbers and strangers,

Yogurt and Nana,

Glass and wine,

Turbulent dreams.

Messages and text,

Ember and paper bags,

Postcards and photos,

Sickened desires.

Tribes and race,

Landlord and barista,

Five and twenty,

Subdued thoughts.

Dance, and...

Perish?

Blasphemy.

Nonsense recruited amongst sensation,

Combine and relinquish,

Meaningless, unrequited emotions..

Speech.

thé ou de café

Morning calls,
A baffling sunrise,
Tea on the endless,
Les heures n'ont pas comptabilisée.

The rattling motor,
Enchanting journeys,
Sweat by the scratch,
Respirer, respirer, respirer

Salivating palates,
Sore feet and broken boots,
Baths on the reverse,
Mais pourquoi, c'est la vie...

Nail biting expectations,
Amazed gazes,
Sunsets by the hierarchy,
Sourire, sourire, sourire.

Rivers of tarmac,
Overwhelming nostalgia,
Goodbyes by the welcomes,
Ah, oui, tu me manques.

Transition at ease,
Humid skies,
Pains by the hunger,
Rêve, rêve, rêve.

Non-existent nights,
Glassed lives,
Breaking by the hearts,
C’est la vie..


Mais pourquoi?

Disillusioned..

Moonlit silhouettes,
Words by the millions,
Nicotine breaths,
Societal sirens.

Recognisable lyrics,
Voices by the disparities,
Knuckle breaking waits,
Unfamiliar paragraphs.

Candlelit memories,
Names by the generic,
Self inflicting kisses,
Braking hums.

Indefinable aches,
Grooves by the past,
Nail biting impertinences,
Isolated enactments.

Refreshing postcards,
Tears by the memories,
Self induced smiles,
Repeated lyrics.



Home; indefinable..

tomber..

A child drenched in unbiased showers,
Pursuing unforgiving premonitions,
Displaced amongst adulterated voices,
Tender, delusional memoirs.

Subtle in staking,
Anonymity a mere bliss,
Run my love,
To those lyrical prospects.

A phantom on a horizon of moons,
Relinquished and ridiculed,
Infected by gaunt, broken personas,
Thoughtful, unrequested joys.

Findings of unjustifiable defences,
Delusions of endless morphs,
Sway my dearest,
At peace with thy acoustics

A man within a façade of monsoons,
Winds prolonging doubtful miseries,
Subdued by differentiated beliefs,
Lingered, hostile romances.

Awakened from eternity,
Tracing a life line,
Alone my darling,
Welcome those recurring memories.

Ring-a-Ring o'Rosies
A Pocketful of Posies!
"A-tishoo! A-tishoo!"
We all fall Down..
