Hockney...

Despite his chain smoking
He could still in-calculate
A fresh way of engaging
With the world
Empowering our eyes
In ways we never knew
Engaging our senses
Thus
He extracts the magic
The meaning of art
So David
Thank you #hockney

The Afflicted Become The Addicted

Ordering the past to present the future
The flash of inspiration
showing us a glimpse
of infinity that disappears

Marilyn Monroe's Deep Scar

A traumatised soul.
used and abused individually.
politically misappropriated.
into a mainstream maelstrom.

Have your say
Put your voice online
And on the line
No need to shy away
From thoughts and feelings
It’s a great way
To frame the future
And sort the past
Have a great
National poetry day!

[Basic Existential Boy @BoyExistential]

It’s national poetry day
So what you cry
We’re all going to die!
Well
If you want to be
Like that the perpetual
Brat
It can help you along the way
But it can also make you
Happy and gay
Whatever
You want

We will live
Day to day
To the full
And not want more
Your choice
Soldiers of The Covid War

*New Poem*
Lost by Basic Existential Boy

'We are left
In a dragging nagging
Limbo world
Of nonsense speak
Moonshots and circuit breakers
Rules of six and bubbles
On and on'

On 1st June 2020, due to my terrible sleep mixed with being mostly stuck at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I began a blog with the aim of posting a new piece of writing each day for 100 days, with short bits of fiction in mind. Here's the results https://t.co/wunk6TkxHV

Nature fills the gaps
Cracks in the pavement
Fill Up'
