Alistair Graham Poems

I walked into the kitchen
for another glass of wine,
in a good frame of mind.

...

A slice of pizza
on the worktop
with a cheesy grin,
waiting for the leaver
...

Oh winter, dear winter
what have you done

He slipped on the pavement,
...

He walks the road
confidently smiling,
knowing full well
life has not thrown him,
...

The oscillating fan stands tall and still
like a mechanical sunflower,
worshiping the ground I walk on.
...

It’s 4 AM. No,
it’s not it’s
4 degrees and dark outside
The window is open and I can’t
...

It’s dark and dismal
in damp and dirty Belfast,
the road to work, is
a greasy liquorice snake
...

Men know the moon the stars the sea
Men know the speed of light and sound
Men know the price of everything
Men know the value of nothing around
...

Forget my image
as you bow your head
Shun the sight of me
...
