“We grow to give new meaning to old words” - Jessica (podcast speaker)

New poems encapsulated modern day struggles but no struggle hasn’t been heard of before.

Poems are time capsules that were never dated.

They were buried in the past but remain intact in the present.

Poem: Our masquerade with the plague
Title: Our masquerade with the plague Our masquerade with the plague, Has beaks, Dancing six feet away, Not to tread on someone’s day. Kisses are now the devils PAYG (Pay As You Go). Futuristic I guess, But he still reaps what he sows. Welcoming death...

Poem: Moon face
You scare me, With your face like the moon. It turns like an owl, And stares with a loom. Your greetings are invites, And your words spoken like a tale. You can’t be real, A human so pale. Not by completion but by complexity, A drawing of what a...

Poem: Numb
There’s a numbness in my body like a dead leg, It comes from my heart and messes with my head. I try to feel the real me, Through harm and through pleasure. I’ve been hurt so many times, I just stand in bad weather. The scratches...

Poem: Void
Void The crashing of unwashed dishes piled upon my sink,next to my bed, they really stink. So do I nowerdays when I don’t step foot in the shower, because all is there is a mathmat as chewed up as chowder. My clothes...

Poem: Empathy
I’m not a bad person, I do feel what you feel. It’s just unusual to unreel, The emotions that I feel. I want to show you I care, But all I do is stare. Wondering why your speaking bare, Tears everywhere. I don’t understand touch, Why it’s necessary, Are words...

Poem: Mothers Grave
I see the dark as I open my eyes, I dream of clear blue skies. I see Gouls and goblins of the human kind, Scary thoughts pop up inside. My inner thoughts have demons, But I push them far away. To another land, For them to stay. They...

Poem: Wake Up Call
I’m downing in my thoughts, I make up love as if there’s never enough, I am always crushed by my imagination, It and reality never match up. My wake up call, Isn’t a bird or a song, An annoying tune or mother’s humm. It’s when reality and...
08.25.2020
Poem: Night Walks
In the mist of the night, The cold whispers his song. It gives you goosebumps, As you walk along. A straight narrow footpath, Bats flying through the air, An icy chill, A cold hard stare. Figures passing by, Shadows of the trees. Woodland animals scurrying, They’re all awake you see. Lampposts flickering, Stars...

Poem: Monkey’n Around
Monkey’n Around Stay Banana stay, You make me happy everyday. As I swing from tree to tree, I’m as happy as can be, With you right next to me. So I sing a song, And you come along, Looking happier than me, To play with thee.
08.22.2020
Poem: Last Wish
Last Wish I’m sick, I’m dying, But I just wanted to say, You take my breath away. I have 10 seconds left, The timer is on, I want to spend every second, Dancing in your arms. As you twirl me along, All I want is to hear, As you...

Poem: Why?
Why? Why do you do that? Why DO you do that? Are you doing this on purpose? This is actually unbelievable. How very dare you? So this is the price I have to pay. Why can’t you leave me alone? Yet you live so far...

Poem: Little One
Little One I hold my bump, I read a prayer, I feel it more, It’s definitely there. I go to the doctors, Nervous, Holding my partners hand, This little lump wasn’t planned. I wonder what to name it. The doc’s got some ideas. We discuss how it’s going...

Poem: Give It Back
Give It Back I fill my room with tears, Crying at night for you. Whispers of a memory, Remind me of you. I am surely lost, Without love from you. I miss you dearly, I gave my heart to you.
08.14.2020
Poem: Time To Clean The Sheets
Time to clean the sheets We’ve been together for many years, We take turns to clean and cook, Wipe the knobs, Sweep the soot. But the one thing that always stays clean, Is the sheets. They always look pristine, Maybe a crinkle and the seams. They haven’t been...

Poem: Behind Closed Doors
Behind Closed Doors  Tee hee, I like thee, Kiss me.  Ok sure, Let’s shut the door, Say no more.  Ow I banged my head, Can I rest in your bed? Let’s sleep instead.  No, I want more, That’s why I shut the door.  I don’t want to, Leave me, Stop teasing me.  I said say...

Poem: Hang Man
Hang Man I’m hungry, No,  Your not, Yes,  you are, What?  I don’t know anymore, This feeling of hunger, Is starving me, Why won’t I allow myself to eat?  I’m getting angry and tired, Repulsive and withered, My flesh is falling off the bone.  My head is tied up, Hanging on its last...
08.14.2020
Poem: Stray
Stray Stay away, For I am but a stray, The streets are mine, For me to roam. I will fight, Whoever comes near, For I am afraid, of kindness. As a stray, Bad things come my way, I cannot trust you, Mindless.
08.11.2020
Poem: Frankly A Monster
Frankly A Monster I seize, I stare, I hit, I kick, I grab, I tear, I groan, I stomp, And moan. I can’t control, Monster there, When I stand, Crying, Pulling hair. I punch, I crunch, I Franken, I real, I trapped, In sorry ordeal. I not me, I something else, I cannot help, Limbs have mind of themselves. Don’t be scared, Don’t...

Poem: Little White Butterfly
Little White Butterfly Today is the start of summer, One day of the year. My heart does desire, Your gracefulness near. Little white butterfly, In the sky, To where you go, Time does go by. Listening to my whispers, Enjoying your smile. Beautiful and wild, Only you can, Yearn my...
08.11.2020
Poem: Train Tracks
Your eyes look like two black pieces of charcoal, Just like the ones we put on our snowman last January, Someone lit a fire and I can see it in your face, Ears steaming, Nose whistling, Sounding like a Choo Choo train. Remember...
08.11.2020
Poem: Window Pain
I tease the bees, As they see, The plant staring back at thee. Sat on my window, Beautiful and bright, But never quite felt the light. I opened the hatch, In bee came, But I shut it off again. Wing in pane, Blood pouring in the rain,...
07.25.2020
Poem: A Peaceful Night
A Peaceful Night The stars are winking, My eyes are twinkling, Bare branches touch the sky. I stare into the gardens by, Quiet roads and foxes nigh. Neighbours sleeping, Kids are dreaming, Baby’s screaming. Curtains closing, Windows jerking. Lights are turning, Shadows lurking, Sandman’s flirting. I lay on my bed, A pillow for my head. Thoughts...
07.25.2020
Poem: Kiss Amiss
Kiss Amiss I could only wish, For a kiss. But for me, A kiss is a miss, Cause I dismiss, Another’s hiss. Snakes are a burden, I’m most certain. The mouth deceits, I’ll avoid the weep, By standing alone, On my two feet. Alone I shall be, But free from he, And...
07.25.2020
Poem: Procrastination
Procrastination Procrastination is ones assassination, Thoughts of the devils mind. You instigate, The biggest sin of time. You loose your hours, To the powers, Of the blind. Time is of the essence, But you just grow your presence, Virtually entwined. Mans biggest sin, Online.
07.25.2020
Poem: Together Forever
Together Forever I see, Eye sea, I see, Eye see. You and me, Me and you, Me and me, You and you. Together forever, Forever together, Together together, Forever forever. We shall see, Shall we see, See shall we.
07.25.2020
Poem: Blade
Blade I used to think you were picking on me, But now I realise, I was. One blade at a time. You never touched my wrists, But you did touch my hips. That was a crime. Never prosecuted, You liked to hide, But I know the monster, That you are...
07.24.2020
Poem: Camera Man
Camera Man You are perfect. Your handkerchief, Your tie, Your rounded glasses, And your twinkly eyes. Goodness knows how you came to be, Everything is a teasing pleasure, I’m intrigued. I want to see, I want to see, Smile now, Don’t be shy, Say cheese. A snapshot taken, A memory awakens, You captured a...
07.24.2020
Poem: Empty
Empty Suddenly it’s all gone quiet, If emptiness had a sound, It’d feel like a riot. My hearts stopped beating, My hands have turned blue, No kiss on my lips, The love drained through. As I rest my head, The only comfort I get, Is one of feathers...
07.24.2020
Poem: Stray
Stray Stay away, For I am but a stray, The streets are mine, For me to roam. I will fight, Whoever comes near, For I am afraid, of kindness. As a stray, Bad things come my way, I cannot trust you, Mindless.

Poem: Birdie Birdie Tweet
irdie Birdie Tweet A bird can try, A bird can tease, As if flys through the trees. It can sing, It can crow, Off and away it can go. It can cry, It can lie, But eventually it most definitely dies.
07.23.2020
Poem: It’s About Time
It’s About Time Handed in my resignation for the first time. Thin white sheet with a scribble on the bottom line. Dear...date...thanks...bye, Paper folded into three lines. Envelope licked, Heart dropped quick, Body shaking to the sounds of my mind. Managers not there, I dropped it bare, Ran...
07.23.2020
Poem: High On Anxiety
High On Anxiety Who goes there? Was it you? I seem to see everything. The way she plays with her hair, The way he bounces in his chair, The way I make people stare. Stop looking! Stop staring. What’s there to see? Apart from a small withdrawn figure, That seems...
07.23.2020
Poem: Angels In Love
Angels In Love It’s wrong to love you, But it feels so right. Call me controversial, You see our love is quite a sight. When I’m around you, I can hear the heavens sing. My heart keeps beating, I flutter my wings. Your no angel of darkness, Yet that’s...
07.23.2020
Poem: A Forgotten Love
A Forgotten Love I lost my heart to you, Never to be seen again. You traitor, You fool, I am not to be seen by men. I shall remain forever alone, Undisturbed and finally at peace. But I might as well be dead, For this is a sentence...
07.23.2020
Poem: Ghostly Encounters
Ghostly Encounters I’m dying, I know that, Yet my mind does not believe it.  I live every day, Moving closer and closer, To my loved ones.  I’m a haunting experience, A daunting experience, A thrill seekers paradise.  I’m pale and blue, But not quite as free as the ocean or...
07.23.2020
Poem: Your Royal Heinieness
Your Royal Heinieness   Entitle me, Your Royal Highness, Duchess of delinquency, Duke of diabolical decorum, For I am merely a peasant.   I am far more devilishly defiant,  My nose doth raise too, Also, to escape the sinful sanitation of my body.   I too have my...
07.23.2020
Poem: As A sapling
As A Sapling Fruitful knowledge isn’t born without a sting, It can poison your existence as a sapling. You’re not allowed to blossom until the others have had a go, Your strength is your weakness, Be whole and be bold.  Your rooted differently, Others can see, But...
07.18.2020
Poem: Next
Next The key to the heart of thee, Is to turn it with the touch of a locksmith. Turning it with no love or expertise, Is that of a pirate exposing a treasure chest, And robbing it until it feels empty.
