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 circus

Circus at the edge of town
At night I thread through straining ropes
One tug could bring the whole thing down
All those dreams, all those hopes.

Ignoring the devil's mischievous cry
I leave the pegs and move on through
Into the light and noise inside
Clowns and crowds and chaos and you.
