I'm a student and general layabout from the UK, living in the rural county of Norfolk. I occasionally write, both poetry and prose, mainly to keep me sane. It sometimes works. Anyway, please do read my stuff and let me know what you think.
Also, if you do enjoy my work, please do take a look at the poetry of Jack Growden of Australia; he's another young poet with a similar style and feel to his work. See http: //www.poemhunter.com/jack-growden-2/
There's a man without the window
Wrapped in cold and thin.
Why not throw open the doors
And let the stranger in?
...
She hit paradise
That night.
Dark diamond ghosts
Glittering silver as they pranced
...
What is this world, this silence?
The cracked paint on flaking walls
The still spiders clutching to the beams.
...
Tears fall on shoulders and cracks in eyelids
As I stand and watch you smiling so hard.
Weeping at happiness, as I tell fibs
To my naive self, my chest burning barred
...
The death in the desert is dying again
And the soldier in red is still falling.
A thousand wild dervishes whirl round, insane,
Outnumbering all but the fallen.
...
