The pit and the pendulum

You Must Think Us Immortal part 2: Do Vampires Love?

Stagnant

No Interest in us

More than Just the Monarchy



You must think me immortal

The Unelected

THE DAY THEY CAME

Rusted Blades in Everglades

a sentinel no more

St Pauli

Without me

Return of The King

21

social Distancing

I Pine For You

The Sea Of Evian

Stinging nettles

When i Liked Girls

Orcs and Trolls

No cure for sadness

43

Amsterdam

Game Over

Wilko

Lip Service

Life's Circus

fingerprints upon your skin

0

~~Bartram's Friday 13th insurance ~~

Crossing the borders of innocence

Darkest corners within a circle

12 hours in a field

(Ok i am feed up reading and writing about broken hearts and all that rubbish, and about doom and gloom, so here is a little true story many years ago about when i left university and could not get a job, but was trying to save up for a ticket to a rock festival, and the only job i could get was working as a car park attendant!)

twelve hours in a field

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Times sixty and you have one minute
Times this minute by 60
and yep you guessed it you've got one hour
times this hour by twelve
and thats how long i have been standing in this bloody field
these are the sort of crap thoughts you think about
when you stand in a field for 12 hours
thoughts and boredom are your worst enemy
i think about thinking!
i have got nothing to look at but grass
i can even see how many shades of green there are in each one!
i look at my watch, only 4 more left till i go home
twelve hours in a field, that what i have done to day
i get paid to stand in a field, for 12 hours
i look at birds but even woman get boring
people drive by and others walk
i am a human scarecrow who can talk
i see people stare and think i am stupid
but i have a degree in Theology and Celtic History
but that means nothing in this field
for i am  just a car park attendant!
