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 devil on the door

You laugh and the world sits confused
Is it that you're laughing at us? 
What has got you so amused? 

Or have you been placed to entertain? 
Should your smile make our spirits soar? 
I do wish there was a way you could explain. 

The more I look at your frozen face
The more in pain you seem to be
Locked with that rictus grin in place

Now nothing's funny any more
You're just a carving on a door
And I wish that I could help you thaw 
And close your tired and aching jaw
