There’s a man
for whom much scorn is meant
so much anger aimed
square at his head

writers of poetry
words raw and red
horror prompts for those
doting on death

Thousands of people
you will never meet
countless unseen voices

"I've only ever seen one case before"
"Yeah, that was my Mum"
"Oh"

"You haven't got this, it's very, very rare"
"My Dad's got it"
"Oh"

They should not have reproduced.

This is my first proper forray into experimenting with form/concrete poems.

I'm not sure if I like it or not.

(Feedback - good or bad - would be greatly appreciated)

"Write me a poem where you use a month as an adjective. Like July lakes, or September lovers."

Full poem in ALT TEXT. Enjoy the #spokenword.

METAPHYSICS AT DUSK
—violet weather for doubt

Twilight tutors stone
streets into brief mercy now
in the #lilachaze
axioms lose their iron
time kneels to become bright here

Today there is no #poetryprompt. I cannot bring myself to do it. I woke up this morning in Norway and read the news and I can't. These killing are horrifying.

Instead I will simply post this poem I wrote the day before Renee Good got murdered. It wasn't intended to be about any of this but it is.

Their May-December romance
lasted less than a week.
She desired flowers, beaches, and daiquiris.
He wanted to curl up by the fireplace with a book.

I belong in my suburb and my Church, testament to the melting pot

Where all are welcome wherever we come from, and share of culture and food

Forget the naysayers here, those dulled to the truth of life, I am at peace here in Liverpool

I discovered loss is not absence,
but a different arrangement of truth—
one that teaches the hands patience
and the heart a more durable humility.
