I've worked in factories, hospitality, cleaning, until my knees and mind went 😅 living a much quieter life, posting stuff I write/make. Irish poet living in Glasgow, I make collages! Just doing my best to help anywhere I can to support artists/activists 💚

So, for context, for any new folks, I'm pretty much self-taught in everything, not here for profit, just hoping to inspire others if possible, share others' talent when I can. The poems I'm sharing from books I've since taken off amazon in protest. Just gonna throw it all out here for free.

Silky whispers of
Pleasure's promise, slide into
Oblivion's kiss.

A pick and mix of
Fairy lights, extended down
The length of the town.

Passions aroused, no
Aphrodisiac required,
Mutual pleasure.

Party like there's no
Tomorrow, delusions of
Grandeur all fall down.

Dark is just dark, it's
Our imagination that
Makes of it, darkness.

My grandmother would
Harvest apples and blackberries,
In pursuit of jam.

Pay no attention,
Those peripheral spectres
Are just curious.

This husk of a house
Seems to generate its own
Sad, spectral music.

Tampered with too much,
Society down the drain,
Resist the masked thugs.

Bears, binoculars,
Jovial and jocular,
From a safe distance.

I would disarm them
All, make everybody blind,
Give the world a chance.

Seas of sorrow, from
Wailing, grieving squalls, to a
Still, blanket of tears.

Our lives, a slow crawl,
Where before we would run, the
Future no-one wants.

The hearth, cherished memories,
