Noble, graceful, caged
So like us yet so far apart
Our bars are our own.

The Bite
By Scott Bailey © 2017
It’s the bite
Of anger
That reminds
How little we have travelled
Anger?
ASD?
Helplessness?
Toddler
Child
Politician
Out of their depth
Gambler
On the wrong side
The toddler
Never
Really leaves

Holding Back Gremlins
By Scott Bailey © 2017
Holding back gremlins
Behind breaking fences
Seems to be the purpose
The never-ending task
The why
Long forgotten

Short
Two this time – makes up for a drought of anything new 🙂

His first attempt at
Sexy was short lived, painful
Full of lasting woe
Short , sweet and sexy
She came swishing to my world
And I longed for her

Dancing with my wife,

Coughs ring round the trench.

Snow
By Scott Bailey © 2017
The hand of winter
Smooths the land with a cold, white
Blanket of deep snow
