ME PLURRY ORANGE SOCKS.

Oh to be in Orange on a Wintery day like today,
I'd need more than me Plurry sox to warm me body.
The locals love Orange they say its just the place to stay
but even though I don't drink I'd sure need a wee toddy.
Down to the pub I went to meet all the Orange locals
and as I walked in they all looked me up and down
Even Gazza and Fred Smith eyed me with their bi-focals.
But the locals gave me a warm welcome to their town
and yere the pub was good, the place really rocks.
Next time I come this way I'll stop and say g'day
but I'll be sure to bring me Orange Cardi & me Sox
cause I was frozen to the bone the whole of me stay.

About this poem:
Have you ever been to Orange in the middle of Winter ? All you need is some warm clothes & a Toddy.
The locals don't seem to mind the Winter but the travellers certainly feel it.
It certainly was an eye opener for this visitor and I have never forgotten the warm hospitality....Maymyo.

walRU

walrus

a white cloud of teeth
approaches
looks..
and reconsiders

02:03
at the nightclub
a confrontation
I work the door

a struggle
we trade
I remove
the bigger man

he sees
his own blood
my squat silhouette
heavy goatee

"you are just
a psychotic walrus..! "
shouts he
from kerbside chamfered bivouac

guffaws
from staff
onlookers
bystanders


nickname..
tattoo

Who?

Who becomes you when you cant be?
Who becomes the order of your destiny?
Who were you when you were you?

What changed, what made you be,
the you thats now, someone took control,
left you isolated and all alone,

And life became, what you are,
and now you wish upon a star,
and you cry a tear, for what could have been,

But you let it fall apart, ended up
with a broken heart!

Youthful

When I talked to the young, they had no reply, except to say,
We are young, it's you that will die,
I tried to explain life does not work that way, its all fun and games,
until the day, the day that you pay,
And no one does know, from day to day, where life will lead us,
or when we will go,
Youthful thoughtlessness, can never be wrong, it's the same hymn sheet
that was our song,
We knew better, we knew it all, now, most of my friends are long gone!

Not alone!

And you found yourself within the crowd, woke up to see,
you were me, not left alone or left to be, a part of all, that's
you and me!

Tomorrow?

Tomorrow becomes today and yesterday fades away, so the present is how we exist, there's no other way, there's nothing to resist, we can't bring back the past, and the future is not meant to last, for it suddenly becomes the.............. past.

So, exist in harmony, for now we are free to.................be!

An honest question

Did we become us by accident, or was it by design?
And when we die and resign, and leave this place for
Another space, will you still be mine?

Tomorrow? Maybe!

Tomorrow is the start of what we want to be,
tomorrow is the future, tomorrow is the key,
And all that life has shown me, and all I want
to see, is for tomorrow to make a difference,
and that tomorrow may make.................sense!

Getting old!

I saw the stranger, he walked through my house,

I saw him stand and stare, like he knew I was there,

I watched him as he went on his way,

I watched him, like he was here to stay,

And I watched as he realised, that the mirror never lies.
