This Night In Pure Yorkshire Dialect

Tis neet ah reach warily otop o’ t’ bedside cabinet, t’ candle burns, plumin upward eur spiral teur t’ ceilin i’, witherin degrees o’ warmth ‘n fla.  Ah pea o’a intoa eur ‘alf opened drawa is uz daisy still theear, for shi ‘as neya petals enny mooar, shi is eur dusty circle ‘a rebirths av long gone shi is neya longa attached. Ah picked ‘a petals o’a t’ years i’ ‘n art o’ eur nivva endin search for uz love.  Ah’m naw a sen neya music i’ uz noggin neya dance doa ah move ta ah’m i’ elderly state ‘n eur nocturnal lonely owd beast t’ longings conspire ta dawn eur final curteeam.  Bur for naw ah id’ ontoa t’ veils o’ uncertainty as uz petals slipped fra daisies ‘eart, therefooar ahl close t’ drawa summa’ else will tek o’a.  Ah shut mine een ‘n trust t’ ensuin black neet. Ta tek uz wheear it ‘as ta tarreur daisy flowa o’ ‘earts divine.

Tis night I reach warily atop of the bedside cabinet, the candle burns pluming upward a spiral to the ceiling in withering degrees of warmth and flow. I peer over into a half opened drawer, is my daisy still there for she has no petals any more she is a dusty circle her rebirths have long gone she is no longer attached. I picked her petals over the years in and out of a never ending search for my love. I am now alone, no music in my head no dance do I move to, I’m in elderly state and a nocturnal lonely old beast, the longings conspire to dawn a final curtain, but for now I hold onto the veils of uncertainty as my petals slipped from daisies heart. Therefore I will close the drawer something else will take over I shut mine eyes and trust the ensuing black night to take me where it has to goodbye daisy flower of hearts divine.

Every Second

Every second, every minute, every day from dawn til dusk and the time it takes to pray will you heal whilst in slumber. Did that dream make sense,  I bet your more confused after all your chemicals. Work in the nightime chemical factory making a mind potion for the next day, we are organic under rules and constriction I do hope with all this said that the good doctor is satisfied.

On Zero Speech Day

On zero speech day one hundred years from now, lips are sealed sign language is but all. Taking orders ticks on, time zero zero, neem neem 1 I say, go life on Saturn and sometimes Mars. Your not going home now your needed out here training on that ultimate
frequency, upon the final hall of initiation with the adepts in saturnian existence.

The Gentle Passenger

The gentle passenger in all our lives should be a light behind you when you look over your shoulder. A way forward when the path is blocked you, will find a way through the beyond, It is within you a light in your mind made bright in darkness you will
see all before you.
