about

A composite of two poems of mine, ‘On Leaving Her’ and ‘Frozen’ over a looped bass riff and some caterwauling guitar.

lyrics

On Leaving Her

Her voice rang like a bell from the slide
Goodbye and my name was all she said
As clear and as pure as that January night

Frozen

that news item froze me
Steven Bell and his new hands
and all those other times
my walls of complacency
came crashing down
like today in the bookshop
the lady whose limbs
propelled her forward
in a whirlwind of struggle
or that handsome boy in Tesco
stacking shelves
with his one good arm

i stare and stare
to try and make it stick
in these moments I’m aware
i haven’t entirely lost feeling
but also that most of my days
drift by in selfish dreams

in moments like these
my heart deserves to break
