be a man

 

some jobs are dirty & hard & uglifying

but someone's gotta do em

why not u?

some might call that

being a loser

i call that being a man

& everything happens for a reason

if u love life

romanticism is not roses & necklaces only

romaticism is cleaning up her vomit when she cannot

or cutting her toenails nice from hospital gunk

& u have the arrogance oh suave stranger

to doubt another's capability to love?

love is not vanity

as the song goes this is nothing new

love is humility

as u get collected with the rubbish u put out

this is nothing strange

unremarked upon what has to be done

it's all part of ur love for her

worth every fuckin minute

this poem is not only for the fellas

but those who know the glory of the multidimensional workhorse

the jack of all trades

who are slaughtered in the wars on men

all to protect the mystique of famous actors

trust me any man or woman can scrub up ok

it's in our DNA

still as Tom Petty put it

"even the losers get lucky sometimes"

that's right

the butter sure melts in my mouth 😘

there'll be good times ahead

things you've never imagined

u were born lucky if uv known love

how did u get so lucky?

i have no fuckin idea

but never close ur heart

Win ugly

  Win ugly I win ugly for some bloody reason I win ugly Life’s like footy Playin into the wind Some days you act like you wish it was over Some days you get the word from the coach & you take it in your stride Though you know ur only D grade Who thought you could play ruck rover & play a ruddy blinder Who thought you had it in ya? Not even ur mother Where did that come from? For you to walk like a king who knew you could sing? About pawning ur weddin ring When ur alone You ain’t nothin but alone Just don’t scam yourself Though u can’t get any help Yes I win ugly I like it in the wet Like a 10 year old boy Drawing with a stick in the dirt Go in hard & you don’t get hurt But a wise man once scribbled The hard is overcome by the soft Like stone in water Like watching a child’s first steps One day in the sun Feelin so privileged to have been there How’d you get so lucky? Ya win ugly Ya win ugly Ya win ugly Worth the price of admission To this valley of tears Coz every now ...

In short, sharing versus selfishness

  In short, sharing versus selfishness   I have heard about The Yolngu people & gasped & sighed & dreamed & with my kite Tacked with & against the wind; Here in Dja Dja Wurrung country, Returning, Solitude for the Yolngu people Is prohibited It’s reason of ‘sorcery’ Offered Pride & closed heartedness Stunting & ending wisdom Without love, So much the better is Living communally on Country, The sounds of Nature: Birds animals water frogs Wind trees & bushes Yarnin & laughter: Relaxed, Part OF country, Not straining adrift to Examine & stand apart, & so, I write here Amongst friends, The sounds of The sitting room Food prepared, The birds the frogs A rabbit to be Air rifle shot & eaten People walkin & talkin & A sneeze The click tick Of finished oyster shells In the fireplace Chewing noises Pottery, Life in good Company Cooperation ...
