Tony

That’s it folks for another month am sailing to the land of guns it’s no joke, wish me luck hop I don’t croak.

Leone

You stamp the tar, never bring good news, even with your car, the tip of your tones, bears messages from a few, lovers never dine alone, they don’t cross the arc, nor makes excuses, right from the off, who needs gall stones, someone says they knew, the way things will go, now it's gone too far, lipstick, the jeans you use, has anyone a heart. splutter down the ‘phone, rage like a fallen star, laugh at this fandango, smoke a Lucky Star.

Keira

Gamble everything away, don't care what you do, you can’t subject the age, to winter's iron jaw, there is no abuse, just a shallow maw, watch ships sail away, put every tool to use, to salt away your days, everyone’s sore, sad song's ring on cue, what treasure they hoard, blow smoke rings in the rain, pull every trick as ruse, it’s all such a game, sever love with a sword, no one really hates you, why make them roar, they’re not fooled.

Janice

Don’t try to separate, what’s buried deep inside, it’s only in the taste, what you want to eat, is beyond a common fry, singing life is never easy, your lips won’t fake, neither can they lie, stood before the magistrate, if you could only see, instead of trying to deny, stuff that sets you free, who needs all those opiates, vodka tonics citrus limes, they’ll kill you anyway, follow your own destiny, back to Louisiana some time, make the Ocean your sleeve, take in the sunshine.

India

How do you know, what makes you feel, if you live alone, that splintered smiley face, watered by the sea, people see it anyway, don’t have to borrow, to lock without a key, all the stuff that’s gone, why jump a ‘plane, gaze at mountain streams, when you want away, there’s nothing to bestow, from crazy instincts, or need to follow, don’t make a long tirade, live without a bean, just face each coming day, it’s never what it seems.

Hazel

it’s more than a while, tell us all you know go on speak your mind, this passing freeze, is not one to follow, who says it's only dreams, don’t play at crime, whoever says so, cells get lonely at night, no fun to retrieve , whatever lies cold, you have to believe to catch other's shine, is best to pray alone, drink communion wine, be part of bigger schemes, feel it in your bones, there'll be no screams, before the road

Our Cargo Party: Gina

Our Cargo Party: Gina: You come to us in bits, say madness is your blood, somehow nothing fits, state and berate the name, your life's misunderst...

Freya

You ask me Bud what's new, never one to shut the door, always smart on cue, last in saying please, confined by any shore, what there is to eat, not one to form a queue, working all the floors, you’d bust any curfew, bad guys on the street, don’t make you pause, when you hear the screams, shrug each life is new, handing out the chores, the dollars that you blew, who knows where you've been, keeping all your mores, what would they see, I know by your perfume, drinking like some Commodore, your head full of tunes, you always know the score.

Emily

How do you know, what people feel, in their bones, your loving smile is great, weathered by the streams, it’s noted anyway, take the time right now, unlock without a key, your luminous glow, you don't need the rain, life’s never what it seems, when you arrive by train, you’ve everything to bestow, dancing little dreams, your moving picture show, is not so far away, now then live by schemes, chase each coming day, won’t have to borrow, or say where you've been, before your fame grows, conduct yourself simply.

Emily

How do you know, what people feel, in their bones, your loving smile is great, weathered by the streams, it’s noted anyway, take the time right now, unlock without a key, your luminous glow, why seek the rain, life’s never what it seems, when you can catch a train, you’ve everything to bestow, dancing little dreams, your moving picture show, is not so far away, now then live by schemes, chase each coming day, won’t have to borrow, or say where you've been, before your fame grows, you’ll know who to see.

Diana

No one’s out for gain, everyone is sent, why bother feeling pain, geting sore, help your neighbour’s fence, fix their front door, no matter what it takes, always give presents, to ungrateful ‘probates, only fools sing for applause, get drunk like the rest, but you know the score, no need to remonstrate, to bring out our best, cooler than a milk shake, two and two make four, you scatter our defences, never ask for more, will you be our friend ?

Carter

When you start to say, shall we dance alone, please ask a little later, throw salt on the fire, don't use your ‘phone, you’re not a liar, make lightning seconds delay, it's lonely on stones, our Iliad’s away, cows are in their biers, these boulders rough-hewn, calms all desires, give us back our day, not some rag and bone, can they hear us pray, we are like Sapphires, whose sparkle once shone, draw air to the pyre, we need a break, our jangled chromosomes, won't jiggle or flake, waltz our way home.

Wednesday 14 September 2022

Bonny

Each laugh makes me a liar, will he see, the lines between my hair, sometimes just a little shove, makes heaven easy to be, even if you’re not tough, awful places make bad affairs, they still let me dream, no one kids me there, get dressed I need a hug, what about my teeth, grace comes shining from above, act like I don't care, scrubbed sparkling clean, I swing through the air, who will be my new love, he might rescue everything, the tide rises in flood, when evening turns green.

Tuesday 13 September 2022

Annie

I used to be fine, drinking alone, dancing in wine, no need for weak tea, ladled humour lachrymose, jokes were my repartee, now what do I find, a house full of groans, running to be kind, the rain starts to ease, do you still carry stones, stilling that uncertainty, dumb when it’s tight, won’t use answer’ phones, everything on your side, I still need to believe, what used to be so, when we all dreamed, where is the line, that you cross going home, the stuff bathed in time, is that all gone?

Monday 12 September 2022

Zayla

Who will break your news, struggling to escape, all the stuff you blew, no horizon's bright, if your mark’s a stain, think you're always right, don’t make life a curfew, be frightened of the waves, knowing what they can do, it’s nearly the time, to hear a donkey bray, you sit by the fire, before sunrise is due, let your tears seep away, it’s all up to you, ever wondered why, people pine for the day, after long silent nights, if your groans are true, a fortune comes your way, rain falls on the roof, let if fall OK.

Sunday 11 September 2022

Yara

Look up down the road, try to be kind, make that smile your own, the stars show the way, cold in your time, you've come back to stay, no need for a comb, you'll walk off the miles, your hair needs no crown, what’s the going rate, your eyes come alive, learn how to behave, where is the soul, what face doesn't shine, before the cock crows, never mind future days, don't put out the fire, you’ve finished with waste, sing like a child.

Xitali

Give us the love we know, float it on the tide, live with what you show, drained by winter's views, before you sail on by, keep us in good news, caught up in a cyclone, which you say you’ll ride, we ask again don't go, what you say is true, a heart needs to fly, but why is it always you, at least avoid the dopes, when wind sings at night, you have nothing to atone, it’s us who have to lose, the moon is by our side, we’ll know you’ll be true, write from time to time .

Friday 9 September 2022

Whitney

I wonder if she's right, to head for the sea, lilac as the night, she’ll dance and parade, make faces for a reason, her soul works that way, the shouting and fighting, slakes her release, star time’s her lightning, the eyes bear the fray, cold for the season, when she calls it a day, what comes to the wire, before she flees, is pulled from the fire, she has no in tray, Spring's done with heating, needs to be away, will she always love me ?

Valentina

Will you come back this way, to see the ruins, each time we separate, in this tired game, you play the fool, I dream of your face, just what it might take, through a cool afternoon, for you to remain, I can’t explain, why there are no avenues, keep me on the rails, here in the shade, I’m thinking of you, my thoughts are like rain, are you made of clay, shall I howl at the moon, I know there's a flame, you’ll come back soon.

Wednesday 7 September 2022

Uma

The aching half of you, when you smell the Limes, on a wind tossed avenue, act like you'll follow, the ties that bind, feel them in your bones, it’s wise to stay cool, say you know what’s right, please give me a clue, I ‘m not alone, in this lonely night, I might even go home, won’t rage and argue, not like it’s a crime, put a fire in the flue, you have to keep going, try to do what’s right, the kids might even ‘phone , if they feel inclined.

Tuesday 6 September 2022

Tara

The sun rises uneven, cars fill up their lanes, I won't see you 'till evening, beyond the night sky, all I need to say, is what keeps deep inside, a sepia rush of feeling, love is just a name, give me one good reason, I will toe the line, it matters that you stay, not go off this time, reject my dawn novenas, smile like a drain, boil my bones for yeast , I know am just a swine, but don’t act betrayed, drink another wine, accept my offer of peace.

Monday 5 September 2022

Sophie

Go on then be free, Your skin is well fused, who am I to believe, or demand what to say, the only song I knew, blown down this highway, is a tune bittersweet, down in my shoes, floats high on the breeze, who are you to state, the only pain is curfew, when you're in my face, you smell of the sea, don’t need an excuse, against some rock of eternity, you tie up your laces, better than your dues, no one makes your day, you never have a clue.

Sunday 4 September 2022

Rowan

She taps on the bar, sees the morning rise, hits the highway burning tar, who needs her eyes . she knows what’s right, another line of her disguise , will just carry on, everyone says last night, but no one hears a sound, ask her to wait a while, if you could see the fright, that blinds her smile, they howl in ancient parts, time weighs heavy at night, wait for dawn to start, would you have the time, to say it’ll be alright, stop before she rides, make her see the light ?

Saturday 3 September 2022

Quincey

Who can ever say, we will warm our bones, when life is like today the picture is not kind, you can cry but don’t, around's not a pretty sight, thoughts get delayed, the same at any Front, when stuff is far from plain, like the harvest light, comes without trace of sound, it’s the living who cry, maybe I’ll take a train, find someone to love , if it comes this way, make my horizon bright, whatever else I’ve done, yes that’s the style, we're all far from home.

Friday 2 September 2022

Phoenix

Don't turn away silent, we'll see each other again, in not such a bitter time, do what we can alone, it can’t bring us shame, rivers flow on their own, we’ll laugh in warmer climes, no one is to blame, tho’ part of me is dying, beyond this war zone, the shifting hand of fame, is a place we’ll allow, to return us on the tide, is all we need to say, wrap up safe inside, if our promises are broken, spirits fast ablaze, we’ll call on the unspoken, to make us dance again.

Thursday 1 September 2022

Octavia

Before you came for me, who carried your light, bobbing across the sea, they say it isn't you, in whispered prayers at night, but do they know the truth, somewhere at my feet, I’ve lost all the signs, am supposed to believe, even with your news, a power beyond my sight, I beg the sky for virtue, love is a bitter feed, it always asks me why, if someone need to bleed, wolves howl at the moon, words fall ill at ease, some mask an open tomb, save me Lord I plead.
