WhatWhyHow???

This year, I set myself the foolish task of trying to write something every day, and what you see here is the result. None of this is finished, polished, or in any way good. It's usually a few lines at the end of the day when I'm tired, my head's broken, and this nonsense spills out of it onto the page. Feel free to comment away, and if you think anything has any potential then let me know and I might have a go at working on it further.

But hang on, where's the first month? You've ripped us off! I hear you say... Well, yes. I have been writing since the beginning of January, but it's taken me a while to get the blog up, so everything here is a month old.

Dangerous ground

Someone's asleep on the train track
Lying on his back with his head in his hands.
Someone's asleep on the train track
And his fingers reveal all his plans.

Someone's broken into the graveyard
Stepping hard on buried bones.
Someone's broken into the graveyard
And they've broken all of the stones.

Someone's leaping from the pier
I can see from here the water's too shallow.
Someone's leaping from the pier
Straight onto the rocks below.

Someone's trying to warn me
Their lips I can see, but I can't hear a sound.
Someone's trying to warn me
That I'm treading on dangerous ground.
