David Lacey Poems

The morning sings a song of sadness
As the chaos of the day becomes an order of decay.
Each second loosing prestige unto the next
Each future deluding itself to mimic the past.
...

Wretch you wretched creature you
Watch your yellow skin turn blue
And all the colour from your eyes
Drain away to your suprise.
...

Metallic construct, new born baby
Cries, dies and learns to fly.
Yes No Maybe
Always why
...

Beyond the palace gates
There are gardens lost to Eden’s ghost.
Truth and truth be told
Forever young and never old,
...

I can hear you calling
Someone understand me.
Someone hold my hand.
Take me; take me from the land of falling shades.
...

I can see in the dirty water
The city lies beneath the tide.
All I’ll say is that it must have caught her
Your daughter found her way inside.
...

All that is, forever was, forever it will be
It takes only the eyes of a child to unravel the mystery.
You’re over thinking everything
You’re sinking in the songs you sing.

Where a man can be himself

I feel replenished
