Difficult people,
Am I one of them?
Seeing, through shades, solo paradigm;
All must be questioned,
...
He has a clack cough,
Skulks by, slag skidding
On serfdom’s slalom,
Too tired to trot
...
When you met with Ms Brake,
Near the trees by the lake,
She said she was stirred
by something she’d heard
...
On the road to Golgotha
I lost my way,
The signs were there alright,
Maybe I didn’t have the stomach for the fight
...
He longs to go now...
To where sunlight sifts its colouring gold-dust rays
Through leafy limbs that stroke the riverbanks;
...
Sometimes I wake when dark is fading pale,
And all the world seems gathered in my head,
Billions jostle solely to tell a tale,
Or bring their denigration to my bed,
...
A bird, with pointed sculls
And long wedged rudder,
Went rowing overhead,
Like a tractor’s buzz
...

Difficult people,
Am I one of them?
Seeing, through shades, solo paradigm;
All must be questioned,
No-one immune
From suspect and doubt,
All but s/he out of tune.
Difficult people
Who get up your nose,
Creating disturbance where one seeks repose.
Each must be critiqued,
Some torn to shred,
In relentless pursuit
Of ‘last words’ to be said.
Difficult people,
Are they not sane,
Or suffering complaints of persona or brain,
Delusional grandeur,
Or insufferable phlegm?
Difficult people,
Am I one of them?
