Modern Day Caveman And Cavewoman


Modern Day Caveman And Cavewoman


The flames are laughing, arguing, seductive
The words are whispered, shouted, mimed
Adventure without the risks attached
It's the visual party, the masks hide the real faces
'How was your day?'
'I'll tell you in a minute'
That minute takes a walk, becomes hours.

Images dance in the flames
Without a second thought press the red button now
Human moths hypnotised by the light
Modern day caveman and cavewoman

A mentor
A companion
That never answers you back
Never tells you you're wrong
The ultimate showman of the 21st century
Smoke and mirrors glass and wires
Just one more spoonful of perfection
Just one more spoonful of faked sincerity
Surrogate lives adopted
The prison of ambition
Claims another victim
Modern day caveman and cavewoman.

Unpublished New Poem

World Of Villains Hive minded satellites, float above the seas of thought Impartial observers take bets on how long apathy can yawn In limbo as gigantic hands keep on spinning the globe Keep on confusing the sanity of certainty The soul of the nations is poisoned Some swear it came through the clouds Some claim it was dormant until hatched inside us We live in a world of villains It doesn’t make sense, because it isn’t meant too So we wait to be saved, it’s always been this way The merging of normality and super enhanced capability Because in a parallel world, a world where we are All Stan Lee’s creations V TOPP

Unpublished New Poem

Playing In The Mindfields There is a swirling rumour that is passed down Like a generational game of pass the parcel It’s about boys and girls who are seen playing in the mindfields Some people swear blind they have seen them Some people use them as an example warning As the bogie monster, the skeleton out of the closet You have been playing in the mindfields again, haven’t you? Under the stars of the sky black night One of the villagers walks in his sleep to the mindfields Walking barefoot across the pain pebbles Carrying only a dream and a bellyful of anxiety Unconscious prayers to the dream gods, to witness something She was standing in the centre Looking for someone to follow out of the fields But it was her would be rescuers who lead her here A trust betrayed, A trust unpaid Let the children run free Le their imaginations know no borders The adults who were young once Forgotten that they too had played in the mindfields V Topp ...
In the beginning there was thought, a lot of thought, hesitation and then it began. The beginning of the end or the end of the beginning.
