It’s the ninth layer of paint Shadows, highlights, washes and glazes It remains a work in progress The frustration is becoming deep set as the image on the canvas does not equate to the visual within my mind. With each wash, the colour retreats and the process of development commences once again. Compatible to one’sContinue reading “Feeling frustrated”

The YouTube wormhole
The wormhole, once entered, I begin to swim along the tide. Inspirational, influential,do I know these individuals? Becoming absorbed within the parallel universe. A vacuum suddenly plummets me into the bars of my room, The bars I created, society created,life created Am I living the dream, the ‘norm’, the idyll that these others, the influencers,Continue reading “The YouTube wormhole”
Anybody out there?
It has passed midnight and I am optimistic that I will actually sleep tonight. Last night was a complete no show! My frequent excursions to the bathroom, because some bright spark decided to slurp tea until late evening, put pay to restful slumber. As I actually stated that fact … a Eureka moment washed overContinue reading “Anybody out there?”
It has been a while….maze of the mind
It has been a while since I placed thoughts on this page My mind has become an incessant pool of questions with no rationality nor reason. My hands are wringing, my eyes dart swiftly from one thought to the next The whys, the Ifs, the if only, create a continuum of destruction within the depths,Continue reading “It has been a while….maze of the mind”

I find it grotesque that pieces of metal, printed paper and crypto currency appear to reflect the social standing of an individual. The narrow-minded view that suggests someone with wealth has aContinue reading “The merry go round”
Truth be told?
“what’s going to happen?” She weakly implores I dare not reply for the fear of creating further distress to her being. “what do you mean?” I retort as the coward evading the truth. I avoid her gaze, calmly soothing her with my hand on hers. The directive nature of her questioning invokes notions of morality-Continue reading “Truth be told?”
Inconsistent enteries
Inconsistent enteries Time just passing by Water seeping through the holes My heart breaks, bleeding for the souls Of those who walk oblivious To the beating of the drum Inconsistent enteries I cannot Be a number My bed awaits my slumber But the lids refuse to close As the torrent of droplets Tipple from theContinue reading “Inconsistent enteries”
