Fallen
November brought an
End to the falling
And all the fallen
We remembered
A premature parting
Returned to the
Soiled earth,
A permanent rest
Then winter
Came, savage
Wind & cold.
Darkness remained
Yet no spring
Would hasten the
Return of
The fallen

Thought for the day.
Running is hard.
Not on the legs...but in the head. It is hard to motivate myself at times & the mind is always telling me
NO WAY, GO SLOW, STOP, GO HOME!
But it is always a great feeling to get home after a run...and to silence the negative thoughts.

A picture that sums up Trump. It's always got to be about him.
A gentleman collapses in the Oval Office and is attended to by concerned colleagues & White House officials.
Trump stands, devoid of empathy, face like cold custard.

World Vegan Day
What have I achieved in the last nearly 8 years since going vegan on 1st Jan 2018?
•Between 800 & 1,600 animals saved.
•Improved overall health
•At 57, I feel as healthy as I have ever done.
•A guilt free conscience.

What time would you be happy to go back to and why is it the 80's?

- the best music
- shoulder pads and huge hair
- a world on the brink of nuclear war

Blame the Immigrants
A poem from my 2019 collection, Commentary - Poems for Today and Yesterday.
It feels, sadly, all the more relevant today. Immigrants, refugees, asylum seekers being scapegoated for the ills and problems in UK society.
