Ita

If i fall to my knees, wail out of tune, would you show some sympathy, play me like a tambourine, make me sing the Blues, let me rest easy, and tastefully tease, with your orange daily news, my hands to cup a scream, dance feather like as a bee, buy me pink cheap perfume, teach me one two three , easy ballet scenes, you skip amidst the ruins, my lips as if deceased, weep tears for your dream, hurt me with your truth, leave with all your team, melt me lemon crude.

India

Smoking a cigarette i hail, a woman's face comes near, uplifted on a toilet nail, geese wheel the honking sky, haunt the clouds like deer, i knew her in another life, yellow wraps abound her frame, she lives this way for years, ice and blue her way, colours of no real price, when whatever becomes clear, that unforgiving night, searching for a forgotten name, nothing in here is born, i think of her again, a lover who always gave, blew flame around my fears, shared jokes heard the train, then disappeared.

Idaho

You kiss before you go, light bounces on the tide, salt from last night’s show, when you rise from the dunes, your face a relic of sky, are you solace tuned, designed on the right tones, a mirage of warm surprise, to reveal all your bones, love you take as your due, before you turn on your side, weary travelers consumed, as for dreams you postpone, on some road you’d rather slide, you pass to lonely souls, the sea crashes all alone, an orchestra for your ride, dances again amidst the groans, make them laugh tonight.

Irena

I'm thinking of going away, getting out of this place, drink wine see about trains, but i haven't got the Moxi, she makes such generous trades, my friend who sits quietly, asks her Da to arrange, a trailer trash luxury crate, somewhere nice for us to stay, I don't ask why, cars fill up their lanes, I watch them pass by, men who understand rage, kneel to see her again, dance in lonely heart ache, nothing's like being ingrained, with a lover so contained, who paints her face hesitates, sways gently in the rain.

Helen

You'd gamble the sky, then look at me and moan, turn your face into a why, you say you miss the Blues, watching ships coming home, attend every wake as true, chase money like it was kind, salt and perfume far from home, caress me or at least try, stinking of some great fortune, smoking cigarettes forgetting to 'phone, maybe you can read the runes, call upon different tribes, listen to stories they intone, some'll gurgle some'll die, don't treat me as your wife, forage at some thing unknown, conceal all bitter ugly tones, make me want to fly.

Sunday 25 June 2017

Haya

High breds live on cream, so can let you know, what they really think, each dance gives a clue, their wiles only show, a frozen smile on curfew, bursting with balustrade screams, they whirl around nearly yellow, searching for the dream, murdered by this wanton crew, who like to bestow, largesse on the cruel, their night's vain preen, softer than sourdough, sweats them to their knees, dance naked by the trees, you can kiss my sorrow, rub shoulders in mountain streams, call me tomorrow.

Saturday 24 June 2017

Hortense

She's bored, don't fake an interesting life, say how you were adored, when they let you remain, you cried for days inside, washed shirts in the rain, now you talk without pause, make sudden tinkled chimes, she's heard those tales before, a missive suddenly contains, all she deems wise, her coat hangs on nails, left as an afterthought, gone on the tide, slipped away untaught, you barely knocked her door, regrets don't ask why, emotions too poor, to understand your lies.

Friday 23 June 2017

Hermoine

You never say what's true, what you saw, in the alley without virtue, dance again to the moon, pray with some lonely whore, your head full of tunes, when your lover groans, don't say things like that for, why break her bones, only fools live like you, crying out your holy orders, making strange concoctions to brew, you sweat in furious tones, as if divined by horses, riding here like Empress Jones, tell me am a fool to leave you, you'll pay a heavy score, your face is turning blue, I walk the floor.

Thursday 22 June 2017

Holly

Before a stranger she pleads, the sound of a removal van, destroys any sense of ease, her offering is a moan, who could fault her tan, each song rings like doom, that intones she's not free, the bars are full of men, does it matter on your knees, without ships or their groans, she looks deadpan, at empty faces crushed bones, now chained prays and keens, inwardly says walk with elan, i'll die at this scene, that sweet insouciant breeze, in the prisonhouse by chance, her face folds in creases, begs for a dance.

Idola

Our love of the rain, is a burning tyre, not pine needles and hay, an offering to the Gods, like ice cold fish knives, to show we're not alone, we were never easy or brave, around blue midnight, for what my family craves, demons rattle their bones, among candlelit signs, they pester me for loans, will take them anyway, our eyes meet the tide, at some terrible place, won't keep trouble at bay, this lifeline required, stumble in the roaring Hades, dampen their fire.

Tuesday 20 June 2017

Ina

We stand by an unlit lamp, a tree, a bridge, the remains, of dinner like two tramps, who cannot bear, your red lips and white face, or a cigarette to share, suggesting the stamp, of forgotten domains, and faded glamour, like you were happy there, listening to the rain, before velvet au pairs came, and lost you a mansion, staking their claims, while your horses pranced, now your ace is distance, a cool look outside cafe's, showing them the dance, seeing eyes race.

Honey

That year was no symphony, always some reason, my partner fell out with me, a photographer of the dead, unashamed functional streams, wants to give it a rest, all our could have been's, are dazzled by the sea, radiotherapy changes everything, I always failed the test, difficult to find productivity, when other lies have spread, no poets gets immunity, or can rage about midstream, when it's time to pee, laughter comes not too deep, heaven is ice cream, lipstick, perfumed busy as a bee, praying for peace.

Hayley

Don't ever go wrong, she carries yellow lists, searches rooms for one down, your heart inside your bones, chained against her fits, places she won't go, you might spend a ton, or need a ship, be prepared to hack it home, not what she proposes, nor whom she enlists, even if it comes to blows, knowledge always sits alone, rain lashes down in fits, across frightening horizons, she regulates like a metronome, in this house of whispers, storms carry her along, make it swift.

Heysha

What is there in probate, that makes you weep, care what toll it takes, makes you ask why, what fashions that belief, you can't shake the sky, factions here approximate, take your shy Tweets, as license to fornicate, anyone can make you cry, they all act so cheap, a few pennies on the side, your forbidden gains, counting even in their sleep, they leave you nothing, don't bleat, shout, berate, swoon before the Brief, remember just how to create, that explosive streak.

Friday 16 June 2017

Gena

When you dance you moan, there is a better you, but you are not alone, a soul by railway lines, feeling blue, is nothing to this time, cold in your bones, floating in a life Perdu , you are a ship that groans, tut as the clock decries, eyes sailing on inner feuds, you can cross the line, love will help you atone, ask what you want to do, when it comes to condone, stash your ticket and iphone, you are beyond this queue, cast away easy from home, explore your virtue.

Thursday 15 June 2017

Gertrude

Sometimes life's a pain, especially from the inside, people who you cannot face, nothing in your eyes to own, but an uneasy lie, your lips like stone, true to a love restrained, feel your cheeks rise, battered by the falling rain, a woman of hope and bone, she beat out her time, didn’t ask you for more, where she once jumped Bail, found places safe to hide, nothing kept her in jail, now isn't the place, to ask the reason why, you act with such disgrace, makes you want to die.

Wednesday 14 June 2017

Fara

She worries about her years, and wonders about her sleep, certain steps could bring tears, they say she feels alone, but know she's not cheap, dreams of coming home, every prayer masks her fears, raised each night to release, the bar makes things clear, terrible singers hard tones, clinging to each night's conceit, doesn't make her a crone, when morning clouds sheer, there's a need to keep, the bedroom closed on snores, her bath runs like a weir, a holy place that keeps, a strong heart beat, everything's so dear.

Tuesday 13 June 2017

Francine

Go on watch me pray, i never got Baptised, do you know what to say, that love makes us fools, can see it in your eyes, what it does to you, you lie around all day, hear me praise the sky, talk of picking up a wage, dark glasses a cool blue, dressing up's your high, what you know is true, why you force the pace, nothing easy in your life, a paramour always late, life is just one race, God never hides, face your demons face, let me enjoy the tide.

Monday 12 June 2017

Fianna

The wind's an old SoSo, who cares about the train, dancing like a skeleton's bones, busted clothes and spirits dazed, bad vibes we stand derailed, wayward beings without a say, sad breath ain't mine alone, will we see rain, dying for an other show, all aboard they sing away, everything is now in place, they don't need stowaways, care how much we atone, give us drugs hear us pray, ask how we're going, like this on the road, no matter what our pain, old timers on the back row, rattle their chains.

Sunday 11 June 2017

Fernandina

Our time lost between bars, padres and shame, the farmland stretches far, shattered fire within my stars, playing a dangerous game, the song of lovely Spa's, times time inside your car, through beaten wheat in flames, a Summer's avatar, each blue war, unknowing what to say, words becoming shared, whose palm did you cross, was it yours to frame, when you told my Da, your love imprimes a scar, stones surround my name, fear spreads like an arc, until i take the train.

Saturday 10 June 2017

Fila

Holy fools are coming near, who are they to care, what we class as dear, nothing here to ask, only what they've heard, long journeys at the mast, sorrow is not our fear, freedom's for the birds, just a way out of here, our love comes by cask, not what we share, fuelled by other rats, we'll work at debts to clear, often on the third, or some other troubled year, tell us how to steer, the way to find a cure, remind us of Aquinas's tears, innocence and myrrh.

Friday 9 June 2017

Fancy

Imagine where you are, shivering in your clothes, alongside a Blue police car, no one gives you ease, but a whispering groan, of wasted opportunity, above the still born stars, someone to call you home, where colour is no bar, and dreams not diseased, bought with pay day loans, cried broken homilies, try to stay calm, before the light shines close, hope there are no scars, , who will call my Ma, hear those whispered tones, asks what is the drama, jelly for your bones.

Thursday 8 June 2017

Frederica

What keeps you being down, a crescent moon at Easter, a night time after sun, your desire to own, denies every season, ordnance map or red zone, a clutch of wayward clouds, billow a search to flee, scudding far from the town, building blocks of your mound, already in dreams, can you accept holy ground, or is it that Chloroform, helps you manage breathing, don't act like a drone, when you love you drown, nothing's given for free, put away your doubts, try to take it easy.

Wednesday 7 June 2017

Fabaya

How will we ever know, listening to the rain, the life we can't condone, to take us out of time, rub away the early gains, drink a glass of wine, see the winter's snow, and maybe hear again, long nights of the blow, a sound of broken chimes, days turning grey, fleeing before the wise, red flags at danger tow, should we see the waves, rolling to atone, the ferment of living alone, it's always hard to say, fear is like a crow, better that you praise.

Ejawa

It's sometimes good, to know what's the beef, even tho there's been bad blood, what you gain, information from sea, be spared sharp unknown pain, and touching wood for luck, on the bridge bringing tea, tides taken at their flood, the Second Mate, says you don't get passed three, certain coronary pains, you call the old man's bluff, make him have a bevvy, he's already suffered enough, tell him about your love, that would always be, the time between us enough, before any reprieve.

Monday 5 June 2017

Evana

Call me a broken fool, let me keep my gains, you don't care do you, if i dance with strangers, wave before a rushing train, your lies are more faithful, who can stand those mules, dreaming of hope again, as tho they had the tools, give me money let me rage, in your eyes there's no pain, ached for years displayed, when they paid winter fuel, turn your head made of clay, now you don't know what to do, all the world sees through, your pious gaze, no one has a clue, when i sing your name.

Sunday 4 June 2017

Evee

Look who's going home, waddling moonlike to the train, sitting by the window alone, what is it about you, living on the make, an everyday thing you do, you don't wish to groan, tell tales in blue rain, answer why you've gone, your tongue is made of glue, owls scan the silver terrain, happy people know the truth, you shiver and hold your bones, make a shroud a flame, rub your useless dome, love's a shadowed silo, you know its full of grain, you breathe in through your nose, winter's come again.

Saturday 3 June 2017

Emmita

I was burnt so low, its been three weeks, did you have places to go, was it so damn easy watching me seek, if you were keeping it real, like you turned to stone, it all reeks, you could have let me know, why say there's no need, nothing to make you speak, just a feeling about me, was it the child, frozen against your bones, could it have been so, you didn't raise your tone, tell me get up off my knees, when the cock crows, everything's revealed.

Friday 2 June 2017

Eysha

A penny for your thoughts, like drops of falling rain, she don't love you no more, some weather the test, with eyes full of bane, you can't take the jest, etched across the shore, a wrist enhanced flame, her face and shocked jaw, eyes of locked rest, looking for hope's train, i did it for the best, a shiver at my core, what's come around again, banging at this door, days of plagued torts, nights stupid with pain, she won't love no more, death's stupid gain.

Thursday 1 June 2017

Eita

You wouldn't lie would you, if somewhere down the line, a vision explodes brand new, that traps you on a train, acts like a swine, beneath fallen archways, melts you lemon blue, spins chances like a dime, what you want is truth, forget losers it says, uses bottles to drink wine, tells you not to hesitate, asks for hotel venues, says love isn't a crime, tells your Ma we're through, why placate dull virtue, every life isn't fine, but come back to me soon, when you turn the tide.
