Some poems I've done at work
Fish and chips have always been the backbone of our land
With the joy of brown sauce that the ketchup lovers will never understand
Fish and chips (the backbone of our land) - 2/10/08
If the house of cards must fall down
Then let it fall down with a smack and a bang
A hangover will be felt sooner or later
The hair of the dog is slang that can hang
The house of cards - 10/10/2008
Winter has arrived as quick as a flash
Darkness descends and the weather is brash
Christmas means we will need to spend cash
Ash, bash, crash, sad ass
Winter has arrived - 29/10/2008
Fate or choice you decide
Shades of black and white for sensible minds
The world is smaller than a gerbils brain
What do I mean? Permit me to explain:
The only thing that's real is what goes on in the noggin
So you can take your 'real life' and send it for a flogging
Pure crackerjack I hear ye exclaim
Or did I hear you and was it just in my brain?
Fate or choice? - 29/10/2008
There is always a niche in todays market
But lazy people sit on their carpet
The magic carpet is achieved by drugs
It's all a game you buggerlugs

I'm dealing with a snake
But I'm a snake charmer
This guy ain't a mate
Cos mates don't mess with your karma
I should have paid heed
You always said he was a snake
We were only friends through weed
The friendship was fake
But now I know what I'm dealing with
I've got wiser to his tricks
Wanting to have everything his own way
And his sneaky little grifts
You'll also find that snakes like to lie
It's in their nature, the bullsh*tting swines
Most of the lies from the snakes forked tongue,
Are to get you to do something - so get smart and be strong
He'd rob you blind in front of your eyes
A master manipulator- the devil in disguise
He's got serious issues that need addressing
Don't grift on a mate would be the first of many lessons
So what do you do with a snake in a grass?
Avoid where they live and if you see one run fast
Follow these steps and you'll be a lot calmer
Destroy the snake by being a snake charmer

If I stuck to my guns and kicked up a fuss I'd get diamonds and gold and an elephants tusk
But if I am polite and offend no-one I am treated like a sucker and marked down as dumb
Squeaky wheels get the grease but the loyal person who just quietly tweets
Is treated with contempt and derision, no one cares of his loyal disposition

Where are you now anti smoking brigade?
You said if the air was clean you'd visit for a lemonade
But I don't see you in the pubs in town
Just wanted your own way didn't you and now the pubs are closed down
An old man shivers like a shi**ing dog
Treat like cattle in the Bull and Frog
Why can't I smoke in my own local?
There were no non smokers in there anyway you yokel
Smoking ban - 5/11/2008
Fight like a champion, be strong as an ox
Do what you want and don't be swayed by the mob
It's not a nice feeling when you feel you're being controlled
So have some my time my friend until you're ready to roll
Nobody wants to feel tired and burntout
Feeling they have no control over how their life is panning out
So eat some good food and catch up on your sleep
Indulge yourself wisely and kick up your feet
Cleaning your environment is good for the soul
Kicking back with a nice beer and smoke is the goal
You will feel so relaxed and don't feel any guilt
The law of the the land is 'Do as Thou wilt'
Do as Thou Wilt - 7/11/08
I can't stop this instant depression
The way that it makes me feel
Full of anger and pain, just see black pouring rain
It just comes on and then life is too real
Instant depression - 10/11/08
Insanity helps me to block out the pain
But if I'm totally down I struggle to even play the game
I've been self medicating for a bit of peace
A bit of time away from reality- a required release
Helps me to feel good about myself
Makes me think things are alright
But in the cold light of day the truth is never far way
I see things as I feel- absolute shi*e
On the comedown there's just stupid reality
Guilt, sadness, anger and madness
Brutality a formality then irrationality
But somehow I carry on through this vision of blackness
Dark sh*t - 10/11/08
Things always happen at the wrong damn time
I'd have told you straight if you weren't going away
But I don't want you worrying I want you to have a good time
It worries me when you worry I don't want things this way
It's anytime when you call and you say I sound flat
Or when I don't call you because I'm too depressed to speak
It's when I lie 'cos the truth would give you a heart attack
I feel like a piece of garbage- empty and weak
I love you so much but the truth is I'm an addict
If it wasn't weed it'd be beer or what have it
Everything I've liked I've done to excess
I'm so down at this moment I can't take this mess
Flat - 10/11/08
The local village idiot is well known throughout the town
His antics are often amusing but people think he's a clown
So you can think him a nutcase but why not give it some thought
Sometimes the court jester actually controls the court
Local village idiot - 13/11/08
Yesterday I vowed I'd give up the smoke
I'd been depressed by antics that were becoming a joke
Today I thought I might recover it back
Give me a bit of that crackerjack

The smell of the gym makes me feel sick
The music is complete and utter sh*t
It's a good feeling when you've done and admire your muscles
But I'd rather be with a Belgian girl in Brussels
Not having to fuss, with the hustle and bustle
