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.

The Waking

Darkness as the city snores
With engine roars
That never pause.

Darkness as the country sighs
A barn owl cries
To soft replies.

Darkness as the house exhales
With children's tales
As moonlight pales.

Darkness in the dreams of man
Unconscious plans
Grow out of hand.

Daybreak brings the blood-tinged skies
When bleary eyes
Prepare to rise.
