A Postcard From The Gallows..

Heaven Sent..
Crossed fingers, toes so small
A creation unique
Noises, smells, all so very new
Wrapped up in its parents love
A journey begins…
The path of life is never straight
Cutting corners, never wise
Learning from mistakes, not teachers
Tears fall in joy and pain
A journey ends…

The Ghetto Child
So pale, so flushed - matted hair never brushed
Prospects few - life of treading water
Dusty streets - crime lingers on the corner
The sun may shine, the rain may fall
Riding your red bicycle through deep puddles
Carefree
Sipping cider at a tender age
Drawn to the corner
That fateful step into the void to be avoided
Pity them all as their halos fall
A mother crying on her doorstep
Her lost lamb smothered in synthetic love
Powerless
The ghetto child - breaks another heart

The Radicchio chronicles
How can you sit on your fat arse with that smug look on your face and merrily whistle ‘my way’ when in the jungle drums are getting louder.
Once in my sights, I set off in my size 10’s to confront this gargantuan specimen - 90% sloth 10% boy and the hair..
…Yes the hair, shocking sight, neither one style or t’other, grandma would call it a raggy mess..
…Entering that Huge space he was in, my eyes cascading from the putrid chilli soaked kebab aroma, he spoke..
…I noticed a lisp or was it simply his effeminate way - His words held nothing, Rent boy ready to sell his all…
..Fear not he lisped, I have no desires for you my friend. Friend, FRIEND..How dare you, HOW DARE YOU *i gulped*…
..Took a step backwards & braced myself ready to unload two barrels of hot lead with venom straight to his Heart…
..How could I miss? How could I spare one so bad from a date with his maker..my conscience spared him,it did,IT DID
..It MAY be the end but it will never be THE END of THE RADICCHIO CHRONICLES.. Rolling tumbleweed on seasonal breeze heading to the freeway.
My dad always said never throw the 1st punch, just make sure you deliver the last…. & I will..
