Without
Life without your best friend Is like living without the sun No one to say stop Or when to carry on Lights go out Shops shut No stage No props Curtain calls cancelled Dreams swatted away Laughter canned Drinks drunk Notes played Words written Songs sung Books closed Gone

Fly
I looked out of my bedroom window this morning, up high, over the fields. A Buzzard was out there gliding with full span, queen of the sky to my untrained eye. Swooping and rising she seemed peerless…untouchable. A moment passed and then the mocking began. Working closely together two crows began to harass and dive…

Balloon
And then things started to get on top of me. It was relentless. Pressure to the right of me, pressure to the left, onward, onward, keep pushing forward, can’t afford to fall back or fall down or fall out.

Secrets of showbiz
It really is amazing how TV programmes are heavily edited to give the illusion the production companies desire. For example, I only recently found out that in real life, Scooby Doo can’t actually talk at all! He is in fact just an ordinary dog, and the speech in the show is dubbed in afterwards. Amazing.…

Finding the door
When anything ever leaves this world, any energy or knowledge or emotion, it goes to another place, another ‘world.’ And to get there it must leave from a point here, and arrive at a point ‘there.’ And if it leaves from a specific point, then that point must exist somewhere, and if it exists then…

How strange it is to “think”
What a bizarre concept it is. How weird that all humans have the capacity to “think”. All of us lost in our own secret, silent world of thought. You could look upon my expressionless, passive , frozen face and see only deadpan but my thoughts are coming right back at you. Indeed when Charlie Cairoli…
