Glass Beach
Waves gently crash
in distant froths salty brine
on drawback sand.
Beach pebbles rattle
smooth curved and worn
upon shoreline wash.
People gossip.
saunter back to vans
full of sandy hope
and scratched legs
with brush off hands
on sunburn red.
Fish swim batter fat
to be served with chips
and curry pot sauce.
An alcoholic sea
laps upon a beach
of glass broken bottles.

The Demise Of Spiderman And The Flygirl
From between moving clouds
out of blue sky way beyond
the sun shines through temperamentally
down into our pensive atmosphere.
Onto a capitalistic spider
as he spins his business web
from the branches of the systems tree.
On a poor fly trapped
in the bondage of regulations
and eaten up in her own sexuality.
But subversive winds of change
blows through the branches
destroying the spiders web of gain.
Then crying rain comes roaring down
and the spider is washed up;
down into a muddy drain.
Adrian Cox
Gothic Scene
Beneath gas lamps
black night skies
to eary sounds
of distant cries.
We walk streets
cobbled stones
through darkened alleys'
squalid zones.
In candle light
misery strains
through smudged glass
of dirty pains
from lonely rooms
in dancing light
that calls out
into the night.
A lack of hope
in darkened shame
black of night
in cold and rain
drips from eaves
to an icicle morning.
Clear and cold
and pointing down
austere spikes
hang down
as rods or bars
in front of pain class windows.
Adrian Cox
Trouble
Dosey doors snore and swing.
ascending steps taps footsteps' echo.
Evidently trying to do our jobs
fingers stain white leaved sheets.
Movements are traced, inquisitions
follow us home into dreams' restless sleep.
Imagination bangs its head
on smooth hard walled corridors
and through an endless hapless maze of dreams
lifes dignity screams, in silence.

Something That She Said
She had so much potential it sometimes got her down,
she didn't like her work but it got her into town.
It really was a problem but she chose to ignore it,
like clothes that don't fit stubbornly she wore it.
In a mad rush she did a foolish thing,
in a split second a split thought would bring
an indecision she made a silly choice.
She opened up her mouth to articulate her voice.
Across the smoke filled bar room sounds were drunken
as the drinkers sat and chatted slumped and sunken.
Adrian Cox
Sentenced To Death
Hanged from the gallows
of creative writing.
Swinging from the gibbet
of sentence construction.
With grammar that stands
on the essence of her voice,
the alphabet hung as a necklace
around the vocality of her wordy neck.
She'd wanted to
swallow all the letters
in quick succession
punctuation as well,
but that would have been suicide.

Trouble
Something has been bugging me. Just lately the government,
governments have been talking about austerity, talking
about tightening the belt. Obviously that is not good, not
happy about it at all. There is always plenty of money for
wars. There is always plenty of money for politicians who
get a big, big wage. They get alot of money and that is
without expenses. With the expenses on top they have a
rediculous amount of money. Just their wages alone is
about five times more than mine, but with the perks they
get on top, it's obscene, it's wrong. "We are all in it
together" rubbish! We are not all in it together. Some of
us are in it and some of us are not. Most of us: The
general hard working people are going to have some
problems if these austerity measures take a hold, because
it is the poorest people who get hit the hardest and I am
sick of the government, politicians, talking about the
unemployed taking tax payers money. It is not a happy life
to be unemployed, when politicians take tax payers money
and their lives are vastly improved because they get such
alot of money. And they keep calling themselves
honourable, the right honourable this, the right
honourable that. Well just how honourable are politicians?
In my book they are parasites. And as for the government
what does it do for the people, anymore? Governments look
after themselves. They argue amongst themselves, they
fight each other (one government against another
government) but what about the real people in this world?
They get dragged along pushed into battles, power
struggles. There is alot of trouble and alot of it is
caused by governments, not the people in the street, by
governments, And there is alot of organised trouble caused
by governments, who like to divide and conquer. I know how
this works, they cause the trouble, then they sort it out
and then they say you need us to sort this trouble out and
the governments start the trouble in the first place.
What has happened to civil rights? I have noticed what
little rights people have now as to what they used to
have. The way people are treated, people are gradually
accepting less. Little things turn into big things. let's
make an instance. Let's take the hourly rate: So you do
your job and you get your hourly rate, but what about
unsociable hours? What about working nights, weekends? We
used to get more money. We used to get time and a half, we
used to get double time. Now we don't get anything more it
is flat rate all the way through. That is all we get, but
it is acceptable now people accept it. I have this idea
that, if you cannot make a full time job pay, then there
is something wrong, desperately somewhere. We all need
time off, a break from the responsabilities of work. If
you put an extra days work in into the week then you have
also lost a days free time and you are not going to get it
back. If you think about it, that is good grounds for
getting double pay, because not only to you gain extra
working time, you lose your free time. So if you think
about it all overtime should be double time. These
employers should pay for that. They go on about
competition. Who are we competing against? Governments can
print money. Why are they being so mien? Quantative easing
It is something you say as a kid: Why don't they print
more money? And I know I've been told "Well there will be
inflation, don't be silly, that's daft!" Well it seems to
be a good idea, now. For some reason, suddenly it seems a
good idea, quantative easing, print more money. So why is
it a good idea now? I don't think these econemists know
what's what. I don't think they know what they are doing.
Just a load of rubbish. They expect us to believe what
they tell us and they don't know. They are guessing. That
is all they do just guess and these politicians making out
that they know what they are doing, but they don't. They
are guessing and they are no better than anybody else. So
don't believe the hype. What a load of rubbish this
government is. What a load of rubbish the people in charge
are, telling us and they don't know what they are doing.
What a load of idiots!
A Call For Moderation.
Governments are the bane of so many people in everyday life.
Government agents such as politicians are self serving. They
manage to award themselves unreasonable amounts of payments
of tax payers hard earned money for their dubious work.
Governments are out to control. They seek to use the general
public for their own ends and so as we are outraged we are
PUNK.
All goverments by their nature tend to be currupt, some more
than others. When governments wage wars between each other
for their dubious causes then innocent bystanders die caught
up in a sensless power struggle that is government based. So
when you see the protests of (A)narchists and the
reflections of dissidents as grffiti, we are moderate in
comparison.
