Poetry - Paris Is Burning By Patrick Henry
|
|
In '68, students seized Paris to man the barricade;
Copied the '89 Revolution, when Jacobins stormed
The Bastille; guillotined the ruling class to carve a state
Into The Republic, which each new generation remade.
In film, The Cars That Ate Paris, named autos the enemy.
Now 2000 and odd, past boulevards,

Poetry - Lines of Life - Part Two By Paul England
|
|
At this time I was knocking about with our Phil. He was working 'cos he had already left school. Me, I was always wagging off school and when I did bother to turn up I was just bad. I had three different teachers in my first three years at seniors, I never did my work, I was just a complete pain in the arse.

Poetry - The Hand That.....By Yellow Bear.
|
|
The hand that heals, should be
gentle, quiet and unobtrusive like
the air, that gently cushions the
leaf as it falls to its source.
The hand that heals, should be
unannounced in its giving, like the hand

Poetry - Lines of Life - Part One By Paul England
|
|
We all start out the same, young, cocky and we just don't give a fu**. I was no different.
For most my life I lived on North Hull and Bransholme. I've got two older brothers and a younger sister.
I want to start my story when I was 10 years old going on 11. It was coming to the point where
I was starting seniors, times were changing quick. Drugs were coming big again, and

Poetry - Thank You Friends Reunited By Laura Fry
|
|
Thank you Friends Reunited, for helping me see
That I've actually done rather well
Because almost all those who bullied me at school
Have hardly moved an inch out of the same old suburban hell
They still see all the same old faces
And miss the same old buses

Poetry - Something Like By Joe Hakim
|
|
It's like the guy asleep in a doorway with
an empty tinnie in his hand.
It's like the hours you spend
staring at the paint peeling from the wall
opposite you because
you can't sleep.

Poetry - On Getting A Mate A Job By Mike Watts
|

He reckons life was wonderful
When he was on the dole
When he had fuck all.
Well now it's a mess
Because there's even less
He's never any dosh
Got a prick for a boss

Poetry - Then, There Will Be No Hope (VT Massacre) By Del Abe Jones.
|
|
If we don't change the way we do
And learn to do what we don't
If we can't each, honor ourselves
It's a sad fact that others won't
And there will be no hope!
If life isn't treated sacredly

Poetry - I Hope You Know By Lee Cassanell
|
|
The Jews are killing gentiles
And the world is run by reptiles
Queen Elizabeth herself
Is such a snake
There are UFO's in Roswell
All philosophy is causal

Poetry - Head Gone By Joe Hakim
|
|
My head's gone,
packed its case and left.
My head's gone,
don't know when I'll see it next.
My head's gone,
it's off to parts unknown.

Poetry - Was Hitler Misunderstood? By The Grunt People Collective.
|
|
Question: Was Hitler misunderstood?
Was all he wanted, to do good?
Protect his people me and you
From the people trying to
Blow us up and chop us down burn our children to the ground
Kill the people, who just might
His methods sure may be extreme

Girls got nothing to gain
Fro' tryin' to be a man
Tryin' to be a man
Lovers feel no pain
Rattlesnake in water

Poetry - Antipodes By Carol Coiffait
|
|
When you went away
the temperature dropped by four degrees.
Clouds conspired to hide all trace of blue.
The bird-box produced three dead coal tits
and every sparrow changed its tune.
I sent your birthday gift

Poetry - Underground And Inside By Andrew Wastling.
|
|
We are the Diggers and we are Jerusalem,
We are Robin Hood's outlaws with nowhere
To run to.
We are Freedom and the scent in the air,
Of Gerrard Winstanley and Wat Tyler's heirs.
We are not broken for

Poetry - - Southern European Fashionistas By Laura Fry
|
|
Southern European fashionistas
They really do my head in
With their snotty manner and ten-inch stilettos
That no-one in their right mind would be seen dead in
Trying to get a smile on their faces
Is like trying to jump a ten-metre hurdle

Poetry - Means To An End By Del Abe Jones.
|
|
Some will say, People for Peace
Who only want the War to end
Are bad for the Troops morale
And the wrong message to send.
But, who more than those Troops
Would like to come home to stay
