Sleep strikes
Resting my head on the desk
….. oh it ruins my spikes
The entire scenario borders on grotesque..
I don’t mean to be a pest
But I do so badly need the rest
Soon we’ll all be heading west
I’ve got a feeling I’m past my best
Tiredness
Conjures images and nightmares
Dreams about Loch Ness
Memories of spring fairs
Ur MAD
I’ve been bad
Neglected my Autocad
Dressed up to fulfil some crazy fad
I’m sleepy
My eyelids are droopy
I wish I could be snoopy
Sleep all day
Sleep all the way
Sleep is never enough
To much gives you a cough
To little….
Cause you got up to piddle
Answered some riddles
Played the fiddle
So much to do at midnight
In the light of candles so bright

Bright fights at night
Late last night...
In the blinding city lights
A boy... young at heart
Trying to sleep beside his bullock cart
Lost in the noise
Lacking confidence and poise
A simple life upset
Starting anew without regret
Complicated encounters
Dangerous run ins with "bouncers"
Driving home after a fight
A little to fast...
Flashbacks of the Happy past
To lost to care about someone else's plight
Standing in the boys shoes
Listening to the kitten mew
An altar ego..
Childhood spent with lego...
Total opposites...
Born as a composite
Similarities unseen
Differences that could never have been
The grass they say...
Especially if you've lost your weigh
Is always greener...
And the other person leaner
In the blinding city lights
A boy... young at heart
Trying to sleep beside his bullock cart
Lost in the noise
Lacking confidence and poise
A simple life upset
Starting anew without regret
Complicated encounters
Dangerous run ins with "bouncers"

Achi"tact"urally speaking
A poet among engineers...
A dreamer among his peers
Someone who's always lost
Waiting for some aliens to accost
A romantic at heart
Yet to shy to walk into the hypermart
An architect at large...
A dress sense just like Marge
A carefree existence
Often interrupted mid sentence
A yearning to draw
Learning to follow the law
Living a life so crazy
Turning up the heat till the windows go hazy
Making strange squiggles
Tickling others till they're reduced to a giggle
Neglected responsibility
Created a whole lot of hostility
Wrote strange lines
Casually paid up a million dollars in fines
A little bit mad
A dressing sense to satisfy a passing fad
A tad to rich
Some say he was in love with a witch
Someone liked a song
And I just hummed along
As we sat on the wall
And dreamt up the scheme for a mall
Buildings in ones heads
Thinking of stadium seating while cheering for the Reds
Living for work
A profession that many consider a quirk
A little left out
Smiling silently as the girl next door pouts
Working nights
Doing feasibility reports for "RITES"
A little misconstrued...
A whole lot screwed...
In the head that is
Try and ask it as a quiz
Architects...
Oh they're always so..."Henpecked"

Writers "B"lock
A Drawing
An egg in the pan is frying
A littlle girl down the street crying
Guilt pangs at my forehead clawing
A reason for secrecy
Something that makes my stomach all queasy
A post on a blog
A fire that burns leaving no trace of logs
Neglected duty
A life thats oh' so perfect and fruity :)
An old favourite
A well kept secret
Humming a tune so apt,
Realising your home is covered in a map
The small joys of life
Handled well inspite of strife
Digging my pockets for change
Wondering if my brain is out of range.
Colours everywhere
Dreaming of kids at the fair
Smiling at a rainbow
Sliding down a hill all covered in snow
A vacation in spain
A walk in the pouring rain
Distractions galore
Its as if my write side is all soar.

Colours don't matter anymore
A red pen in hand,
Strumming the tabletop as if I were in a band,
Thinking of things that would make many people cringe,
Remembering Francis Drake - the kings beard he did singe.
Distracted!
The tip of my pencil retracted.
I've built this wall around me...
I'm sitting snug, almost as if awaiting the kings decree
My degree's still pending
I might as well switch lines to vending :)
Be it food and drinks,
Or even skates beside the Ice hockey rink
I don't think so often....
But then its not everyday that you'll see a coffin
I grin to myself every now and then
I wonder what to do with the next lot of ten
I'm turning colourblind
The pens blue not red
I hope you don't mind
After all... you see... I'm not really Ted!
If i was.. I'd be the one who was dead

Hold Up!
My thoughts were put on hold
My rhymes must have grown all cold
I watched others eat
While i attended the meet
Left halfway
Right down the old pathway
Out of touch
The expenses are just getting out of clutch
Some area there
A new mare to dance in the fair
Somethings just happen
Others tend to cause the pace to slacken!

The Chees I chose
There are these..
And there are those :)
There are men
And there are mice...
If they are ten
They're sure to have lice...
There are geese
The sight of which causes some to wheeze
There are times to commit crimes
Time to sit and clean up the grime
Somethings just work
Some theories in darkness forever lurk
Like i said there are these
and there are those...
and theres the cheese
That just melts down to your toes :)

Hunger pangs!
Munching on a pack of pringle
Wearing a slik shirt thats ohh so easy to wrinkle
The spell cheque is of,
As of late encashing self cheks makes me coff
Sunbathing on a deck
Remembering the ship thats now a wrek
Languages get muddled
Thoughts befuddled
But the point gets across
With a barely acceptable transmission loss
It depends on thermodynamics
Or maybe just the reputation of the mechanics.
Hiss popp Hiss.... a whole lot of static
Life is so easy when ur driving an automatic
Exceeded the speed limit
All to avoid being late by maybe a minute.
Its fun moving so fast
The only thing better is sitting atop the ships foremast
Being in control
Letting the bearings just roll
Ignoring friction
Being so nervous it shows in your diction
Rhymes written for a reason...
They're easy to do regardless of season...
With motivation gone...
Even the best off efforts is barely worth a moan...
The rhymes don't sound right
Maybe they're just reminiscing about Frank Wright.
Theres a passion thats amiss
Something that most would casually dimiss
Its not that bad
But the feelings just a li'l less than glad
It shows
But mostly you'll think i've just been overdoing the rows!

A li'l Uptight
She's a li'l nervous....
Maybe her ears are turning a bit to porous
Missing alll calls...
Leaving me alone to watch every game of football
She's a li'l bit uptight...
She needs to sit a li'l more upright
I stare into space...
As i watch her race..
Theres a marathon next week
Though my prospects of competing are bleak.
I'll run along..
As long as i know i'm not in the wrong..
I'm getting the heeby jeebies
I wander the streets, looking for freebies
I saw a stranger clamber onto a bus
I thought about "all that fuss"
The rain came
Ohh I realised I miss that Dame!
Memories of long ago
Travelling to and fro
We watched the sun rise
And felt we'd won First prize
And we watched the sun set...
Feeling we'd just lost a bet!

May and Ankh
Running away from reality
Living in a world of Fraility
Wierd emotions
Scary notions
A carefree soul
Looking for someone to play the guiding role
A bright ray,
A disposition as sunny as May
To careful to ever drive a tank
Quite willing to play that odd prank
An eye for an eye
The occasional sigh
Architecture he preaches
Even though he claims everyone around is a leech
A careful Bugger
A persistent Bug
May and Ankh
forever wishing he could drive away in a tank!

Drive me Crazy ... I'm to Lazy
I was a li'l unwell
It was as if my head was under a spell
Missed a movie
Heard later on that it was quite groovy
Gotta meeting to attend
A couple of contractors to Befriend
Catch some Hanky Panky
Need to make sure people don't turn Cranky
Pretend to be unaware
Just say that u want to attend the fair.
Innocent appearances can fool,
Sometimes even make girls drool
Don't get to glad...
Often your brain may just be turning mad
Confused Confusions
Diffused Delusions
They're all the same
Nether of them is really a dame. ;)

Half asleep.. Fully awake
Its been ages since i wrote
Its as if life has barely been afloat
Everytime i start to think
My minds distracted by some fink !!
I finally decided to pen my thoughts
Before my brain begins to rot !!
The attempt is feeble
The results won't really be regal
But its a start
And the chain of thought will roll on like an apple cart
Its as if life has barely been afloat

The attempt is feeble

But its a start
And the chain of thought will roll on like an apple cart
And here i am flooding you with rhymes
Going crazy and trying to floor u with my mimes
I'm not yet sleepy
I'm sure theres something creepy
The posters done
I'm finishing the last bit of bun
I thought i'd chat u up at last
But it seems that u chose to look right past
I wrote so, a song so long
But i guess somewhere i went wrong
I'm gonna hit the bed!
I guess we'll never be wed :P

The "Arty Farty Party"
Last night I went to a party....
Everyone there was old and "Arty Farty"
Met a few people,
Muttered a few hellos that were surprisingly feeble.
A few i knew
But most faces were new
Avoided some
Stuck around behind my Mum
The birthday boy reminded me of the Dean
I ended up chatting about Mr Bean
Someone I met
Had a slightly conflicting mindset
All in the blood
Yet I felt like screaming out Mi ' lud
It was'nt half bad....
As parties go it may even be called rad!

The Prince !!
Multitasking,
In the sunlight basking
Been to site...
Ordered it all painted white
Saw a lot
Settled down and slept in a cot
Clambered over roofs
Preteding to be all aloof
Had a psychic twin
Useful when i felt like avoidng the din
Put upfront
Allowed to always bear the brunt
I escaped unhurt
Stood at the edge and watched faces full of mirth
I remember the prince
With the shadow he tried to mince
Are we related??
Well i guess the realization is Belated!!

Strangely lost
My minds distracted and confused
My thoughts are many miles away...
I think of you and I think of things
I think of you and time goes by...
My minds excited and amused
My thoughts from here to there do sway
I make a drawing and i write a line
And all of a sudden I feel fine...
I wish it were that easy said the caterpillar to the frog
But after all I'm just a wheel in the cog..
You said that one wrong
Just to make the song go along
Its been ages since we last met
I remember the time when we were all wet
I'm overdoing the rhyme...
But hang on that can't be a crime..
I take a deep sigh
I wonder what it'll take for me to get high
I tried
And I cried
But I'm bored stiff...
And it's not because I'm miffed...

Miss Identified
Just the other day,
I heard a donkey bray..
I was lost,
looking for some one to accost..
Lost in thought
Craving for some pot
It's been a while,
Since I've run a mile.
Hallucinations come,
and the only thing that dispels them is Rum
I dream of the past,
but time seems to pass a bit to fast.
Work to be done...
Ohh I envy those girls soaking up the sun
I ogle from a safe distance....
Wish I could sail in a ship called "Happenstance"
Dreams Dreams Dreams....
If i start writing I'll need about a hundred Reams ;)

Down Memories Lanes
Remembering things
Hearing starnge voices sing
Memories you thought would last forever..
Seeing them floating down the river
Rowing in a canoe.....
Breaking in your new shoe.....
Life is an adventure
To be shared with girls wearing fur.....
Hugh said
Come girl share my bed....
The boys will get that
The girls may smell a rat....
The key is the bunnies
They're cute alright
And it sure is fun to watch them fight,
But if its me you ask, They only want your monies...

Up Memories Streets
Photographs and memories...
Postcards sent in moments of misery
Looking lost
Settling down in the frost...
Wanderlust bites
Set your mind on the sights
Distracted and confused
Lost and misconstrued
Unsure of the way
Walking on till the end of the world
The path along the suns ray
And god lies in his bed curled.
Staring down the road
At some random broad
Legs aching,
Or is the mind faking
Its impossible to tell
Lest someone hear you yell!!

Square aHEAD
Someone once said
You have a square headI punched him in the face, and watched him turn red.
Lost and found,
Square and round,
Diverting attention,
Changing the power of retention,
Doing things,
Taking to wing,
Writing songs,
For some girl in a thong,
Doing it for need,
Doing it to generate money for weed!!
Trying new stunts,
Hearing damaging grunts,
Some for joy,
Some for the sake of being coy,
My head is not square.......
Sue me??
Or Sue for me??
Fly by wire!!
Driving so fast
Watching life fly past
Insane moments,
Scared protests,
Flying on land,
Skidding on sand,
Ruining what you never owned,
Crushing every seed ever sown,
Venting your anger,
Emptying your mind,
With the touch of a finger,
You're leading the grind,
Swerve left, swerve right,
Pause to watch the others fight,
Drink up,
Drive on.
Its safe you know,
There really is nothing that could blow.
P.S. life is a game..... play it well
