Annual decline (a poem on how this year has felt)

Drain the well of words, see the lack of thought thereof and the realisation that twenty sixteen was. The year of dead dreams: now philosophy, ironically, has stagnated for all to see.
Subjective now objective the objective to subject them,
those who don’t agree, who dare not to see. racist liberal greedy illogical free
market closed minded. Bleeding heart, catastrophising.
Open then forced to close, like the case of our time, you stay in your bubble i'll stay in mine.
People of our planet causing constant verbal crime.
Support the change.
Triggered and deranged, hold back the wave racist white slaves,
No grey.
All clean.
Two poles.
All extreme. The fence wrenched down now the world is a battleground, a trillion words floating around, proudly yelling factual blurs, rage and cursing, homophobic slurs, one comment to another warring as lost brothers on every topic that we conceive.
Hear no evil see none too but speak it all and claim its for the good you do, debates no longer exist baiting is the key, cool kids getting edgy to swim in the screams. Two sides now two lines.
Parallels, one direction no change no shift, bullshit take a stride, turn, ride into the night with open eyes see the chinks in their armour and yours and mine. Arguments turn to war no victor, brains littered with bodies intellectual litter causing young minds to decay in fathoms.

have you ever heard the tragedy of humans reverting to animals?


Footnote: This is more of a spoken word piece that will evolve into that medium when i feel confident to do so, in the meantime here's the written poem.

The uplifting tale of a stagnant Drone

I: Drones lone moan
Drone woke up. Slide out of bed like drone does
What a drone won't do is not beyond me or you
Because we all think or do what the lone drone do-
No does because drones like a worker bee
Slowly shifting with a buzz blended with a background
Chitter chatter turns to fuzz-
Wait fuzzy, when words don’t fit to form drone finds it
Funny, like his t-shirt worn un-un-ironically
The design is so absurd it makes him feel solemn
See the drone isn't like the rest
He wears a black shirt to show he’s best-
Bestial is what I meant to say
 See the lone wolf has a dress code of its own
But the one in sheep's clothing this time it's the drone.


II: creative limit braking
Drones gotta leave home makes his
Own path but to do that he thinks that
New roads should be taken
Drone wouldn’t break his back in an industrial
Work pack
Or herd but drone has heard
That you can live life through spoken word
It's open and free for everybody
Even if  your stories shoddy or if
Drone has body of work doesn’t fit
The rest of the boring shit recommended
For not taking risk’s
See drones work is mean, obscene
Just makes people depressed see
You can be creative but you have to make it
Make sense in way that won't offend those on
The fence if life's worth living
Or if a lack of originality should make them livid.
Oh well…

Its okay drone can post online anyway
With random ants and faces commenting every day
Oh cool great stuff keep it up
Oh I love you work cant get enough
Read my stuff…
Oh have you read it yet hate to nag
Oh what do you mean its bad not true
Oh you don’t like well I won't compliment you
It's not clever or funny nor uplifting its droll
Your writing is empty and sad like a hole
It can be sad but don't criticize us
Use a disease if you please
Something we can't control
Or a drone who was bad evil mad
People are good happy and jolly
The notion we ruin is absolute folly
Shame that the writing is unlikely to molly-coddle
Prick like a holly splinters from a lolly stick
That’s how our drone writes painfully quick.



III: socio-tally/ progressive digression
Dot dot dash
Harsh but rash
A statement on the state of which our world lasts
Cycling sight inability to break chain
Aim for the stars in vain then claim
To ascertain that the old has gained
New
Meaning depth style weight gravity
Drags us down to where we came
Throw on ten of the same robes
Like the hole in youths earlobes
The styles roll on they go on
Slow us, move on
Reboot remake redesign
Realign priorities screaming
a drone Begging, on his knees
Ears bleeding
Tears green
With envy of the futures gleam
Possibilities of unforeseen
Drone cries for ten-years  wait
The future is a bait for the tech snake
Wraps our world in a hold so cold
It can hardly breathe over the smog
Cold is a lie, heat is the truth
But drone said change is good
Move forward it said we should
Change is like a grenade
Could say it’s a dud but put it to a blade
Explodes the world  before  the past can fade
so what can we do when the drone who cried fly
see’s the Icarus in those that lie
a foundation of the  cyber steamrolling nation
Change sees after this lab session
Progression of western put to testing finds
Tech is better left, alone
 Is what it leaves us



IV: troughs and trenches
This is the last I’ll be heard of.
I, the drone can't do it anymore.
These issues that riddle me are closing my life to a draw.
I asked a doctor, for help, the aid that I seek.
The response I got? Shallow and meek.
Told me I should pop pills, hollow out my soul to improve my mental state.
If not reduce the toll by explaining what ails me, so they can relate.
The issues that hold me make me wallow and cry.
I'm scared when I see people, or hear a laugh when I pass buy.
The illness is the horse that gets paranoia past the gates of troy
My inner voice doesn’t love me. My outer voice doesn’t work.
I can’t tolerate the seclusion but being surrounded makes it worse.
I didn’t want to take a pill. I'd feel weak and insecure.
I didn’t want to seek therapy. I couldn’t explain myself at all.
If a doctor can't help me  then I can't either.
Shaking is bad, trembling is worse.
It's like my heads a bank and my hearts the purse.
I keep depositing cheques but my balance is worse.
When I notice a loan that I never took out.
That loan is stuck in my brain.
It’ll never come out.


V: Ordinary obituary
Drone came
Drone saw
Drone lost
His thinking pricey, his life
The cost
He never tried to be good
(certainly wasn’t great)
Never tried to spread hate
(Not that anyone could care)
You could almost say
He was always (never) there
Loved by all cherished by many
(But when I was buzzing did anyone help me)
Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah
Ceremony
He didn’t die, sad lies
He escaped from a life where the bugs couldn’t
Flie’s swirl round decay and feed off the rot
They feed and the fatten
Till there small hearts pop
They know there forsaken
Know that their
Lost
Flies see the future
Pointless
But they never stop.
Drone loved stories
Tales, books, poems
Remember how when you were a kid?
You flicked to the end of a book, Then closed the lid
Drone misses the days when he was a child
So when he saw his own story was sad, frustrating mess

Drone skipped to the end, Missed out the rest.

Cold cant Cover, Frost will fade

I crawl out my bed, the light is gone are my eyes even open? God, I can’t tell. the absence of light keeps me lost in my safety. As I leave the womb of comfort the ice digs into my knees, forcing me to halt my pace the feeling of loss perhaps an ex-lover's embrace. A lonely state that’s soon replaced, by those whose shoal I’ve been assigned, I say shoal why? Not only are we out of our depths, no longer are we in familiar waters, while we start at three, Non-disclosed comradery. Now we three bump into four more, battalions on a field of a glacial war. Where now is that grip I once felt from that icy witch, I know now that her barks worse than her bite, tundral bitch. This harsh reality of a constant solidarity surrounded by thousands of living things but all refuse to be seen. I shuffle slow still growing myself, big steps wide world. Where do we go now? Go back, maybe. Light draws in but the fog won't lift it rolls down the hills as the wind roars “leave” we don’t belong here that much is clear. I see the figures in the trees, the rustle of the leaves. This witch is like my anguish which is lost inside my thoughts, madness. The pain that hurts you most is the one you know is coming. Everything i feel is like a songbirds humming, the emotion it evokes is subjective at most, even hearing one note should draw out of us, hope. Were surrounded by infinities of things and beings you and me and the detail of it all is what draws out some beauty. Two held hands, a true horizon, the sun breaks out like the kindness inside, mutters of offers and other such talk a family linked in an early morning walk. I’m not stumbling now, my pace is brisk the dawn has broken no more shadows in the mist, just like the paranoia the veil is lifted as it rises with our spirits I see all the wonder we’ve been gifted.

Footnote: stuck in a forest for a few days one of pieces im working on for my uni course but i felt like uploading it in a more rough state as it has a bit more honesty too it.

What i do to stay creative (The hints in create)

This is a spur of the moment piece no title, no thought, nothing.this in an attempt to not only to keep everything creative going but, to anyone who is reading,  showing how i and others can keep their writings flowing, creative perhaps abstract but also, constant.I believe that keeping a creative flow going helps produce greater work therefore by doing a odd spouting of words i keep the creative cogs going so here it is.

love, loss, tithes of life.
pricks and pokes, people with knives.
no matter no purpose all matter, worthless ?
train of thought incorrect, grains of thought
better prospect
plant
watch
grow
seeds of thought let my mind flow
the water that nourish the thoughts that crush
take away a train, rearrange into a bus 
because the service is inferior 
the passengers unwell
there's a small fee to hop right on
but journey juts on and on
you pay for what you get
you pay for what you don't see
you pay for trying hard
you pay for being free

Footnote: regardless of the quality of this it is an remains a product of creative thought. If even one of these phrase can trigger a thought or an idea it was worthwhile but furthermore making sure that i stay focused on writing means that i still have creative processes going. if you think this might help i say go for it! one last thing its best to just type dont worry too much just type and see what comes out.

The poem on depression

I want to begin this by saying that illnesses, which is what i believe issues like these are, should be dealt with. While i wrote this to help those who suffer to raise there voice and be honest about their issues, you as an individual must always be active. Problems do not disappear i urge everyone to seek advice or find help, simply just telling someone trustworthy or close what's wrong is more than enough. To battle with mental illness you need to surround yourself with positive things and people, never keep things inside your mind no matter how hard it hurts to speak out but most of all be active, seek the help you need.

The spiral


Why try you lie I die
at night that mind takes flight a cold dream a grip tight 
the blame lies the tears fly the screams cry    I sigh    I ask why
 watch the time
tick
tick
tick
stop
don’t say this tell me that curled up tight lone falling through cracks
what happened to me I see the mind pull away at its own seams
a lack belief in its own faltering being , slip in a dash solid infirmity solidly brewing
a lead coated brain, a hidden wound known to drain the toxins are tame
 slithering poisons gain ground like rabid fetid hounds thoughts creep in
seep in but no sleeping just weeping
a bad thought is like a reverse Rumpelstiltskin
bleakness weaves the gold into rotting sin
 it is the mind the Brain, the host of this game it’s a war lay your claim
 do you want control over relationship’s or your mortality and how to deal with this?
every second that should pass seconds are now hours and do last and seconds inside of seconds section you alone for the second time you think about the seconds it takes to end your life the seconds it takes for those to forget the seconds it takes to do what’s best they don’t want you there sick of every second now the seconds in your head these seconds you live off are waste of an essence there’s no sense all struggle
as those seconds wrap around, blocking the rational voices the graceful sound a bubble
now the haze stopped the graze of this self-hating movement
notice the time you’ve lost, days, you never moved in a mental grave you lay
you need to move seize the day.

A start of a collection: the drone

To begin this i want to say, Hi! This is my blog i'm mainly going to be using this as a platform to submit hold and develop my writing. Anyone who comes here is welcome to simply read, Comment on or critique my work as long as it is helpful i am not fussed. Anyway this is my first post of a section of writing feel free to enjoy!

I Drones lone moan
Drone woke up. Slide out of bed like drone does
What a drone won't do is not beyond me or you
Because we all think or do what the lone drone do-
No does because drones like a worker bee
Slowly shifting with a buzz blended with a background

Wait fuzzy, when words don’t fit to form drone finds it
Funny, like his t-shirt worn un-un-ironically

He wears a black shirt to show he’s best-
Bestial is what I meant to say
 See the lone wolf has a dress code of its own

But the one in sheep's clothing this time it's the drone.
