David Keig Poems

Not to forgive is emptiness
For cold and lonely souls
Who understand forgiveness
As somewhere they can't go
...

A Christmas tree! A Christmas tree!
With dark green needled memories
Of childhood dreams and mysteries
...

God had a plan for Christmas
A plan that could not fail
Rather then indulgences
He went straight into retail
...

I dreamt i saw a perfect world
A perfect world did see
But it could not be perfect
As it included me.
...

Now's the time for honesty
The time for truth or dare
When you say that you love me
Does it really mean you care
...

They had a clear policy
For letting people stay
If your face was white you fitted
If not then sent away.
...

The train winds west from wagga
Me - sitting sweating from the sun
My swag up on the swaying rack
Now beholden to no-one.
...

There's a little place that lies
Between our dreams and then our lives
Its a place where we should always spend some time.
...

I've got Poetic Licence
Applied the other day
I took a little test you see
They said I was OK.
...

Without you
Palestine
Would have been
Just a problem
...
