Do not die my catheter is dry

I caught the tube for urine on my toe

The catheter is hurting more and more

I want to run away but I can’t walk

Mother take me home, it’s getting dark

I paid my monthly phone bill with a card

I must talk to friends when life is hard

I never thought I’d live to be so old

My chilblains disappeared, it’s not so cold

How I suffered as a little child

My brother was aggressive,he was wild

Recently he died, he got away

I miss him, I forgave him for those days

We both missed Daddy, how can Daddies die?

God is stranger than a mother’s

Sigh

I don’t like God nor calculating Pi

I should have studied music it was Gay

Dancing on the. Altar we decay.

The Holy Spirit’s fled in disarray

The little flowers

Don’t tread on the little flowers

in Katyn Forest

Fed with the blood of 20,000 unarmed men or roughly

Shot to bring àbout Utopia

How can good come out of evil?

How can force bring about love

How can the dead rise again?

God was absent already

Before the Holocaust

Before Stalingrad

Before Dresden

Before we aborted the inconvenient

Before the priest said Mass

Before we bit the Host

Before love waned

Before our eyes faded

We saw nothing until the bomb dropped

And he said, let there be light

We must not

Affected by the atmosphere of strain

We fear to ask for what we need

Yet life goes by and will not come again

Affected by the mists of all the pain

We must not turn to crime nor torture,maim

Let hope come down like clear sweet summer rain

Be innocent of eye for what we read

Affected by the atmosphere of strain

We defer our own demands or even needs

The face that was familiar

The face that was familiar is no more
Yet in my dreams ,he is alive again
If ,by a chance, his life could be restored
It would affect me like the hidden chord
Which played, my own life force would go.
That one must live and one must die is plain
The face that was familiar is no more.
Yet in my dreams ,he is alive again

After virtue

After virtue comes the longed for Fall

Man can sin and noone is appalled

Faith of any kind is hard to find

Decisions founder in the deeps of mind.

Proud in self esteem we boast and preen

Caesar smiles then vomits on the Queen

I think so

Learned helpfulness in humans

Innate helplessness in humans.

Conditioned hopefulness in humans

Natural hopefulness in humans

Teach yourself hopefulness

Teach yourself hostility

Host your own blog

Where is the heavenly Host?

After Xmas

By Katherine

Vast soft clouds move slowly past the trees

Call this a wind? It’s just Christmas breeze.

On the ground the patterned paper lies

Torn away too quickly with sharp cries

Are we so bereft we cannot wait?

We must begin again, it’s not too late

Xmas comes and goes and so do we

All is satisfactory I see

The blackbird hides inside the rose marie

Like the flowers so wild they live now free

The sky asked me

Describe this now, the sky called out to me

Copper clouds turn pale above the tree

No motion but a trembling of the boughs

And leaves that shake by rhythm well endowed

So I bought a pen with murderous ink

As I wrote the sun began to sink

Strange sky

The sky is distant,cold

Neither Fall not Winter

Colour light mauvey yellow

No birds àbout, full silence

hangs like a dead bell

No thoughts,no emotion stir my

mind

This does not flatter

Death hides in the shrubs

Chased out by a cat,it floats

away like a coat someone hung

there for a moment

To snog on the dead leaves

Leaving mistleto weeping in old

jealousy

We will have to kiss

Our hard life

Is it true that our lives and jobs are so much faster now than in the past that we need to relax and even learn special techniques to do so?

Is my life harder than my grandfathers who spent 50 years in a coal mine?

.

He did not have to mark exam papers he did not take work home.

Neither did his son who was a train driver

Still our leader has to work in his own garden drinking wine

What a tough life Telling lies and trying to remember them

And women, lying with them.

Having more children How does he relax!

That bloody catheter

The carer kept knocking on the

catheter which hurts (she was wàshing me)

When I winced she said

You had better get used to it. It will always hurt

But she was wrong.It depends on the carer

A bigger Cloud

Do you repent?

I’d rather resent.

Are you a sinner?

Compared to whom?

Do you go to Church?

Thought you were going to say

in Church.

I try not too.They need a bathroom.

Surely it’s not that long

What?

The Service.

I’ve never been served in Church.

No we get saved in Church if and only if it is on a Cloud.

Otherwise we get saved whilst we work.

Not in bed?

No Cloud has Space

Can’t they buy a bigger one.?

Who are they?
