by Chris Hudson | Apr 18, 2018 | Life, Short Poems
I have been trapped
By a slide of blinding images that have
tumbled o’er my head
And my spine has snapped
Cord broken, connection nullified
As I tried to grip the fragments of a broken
life
This whole damn world
by Chris Hudson | Apr 18, 2018 | Life, Short Poems
This whole damn world’s just a pleasure machine
I’m just a cog and I’m feeling mean
I’m going to drop love bombs on the hating scene
Shout until they put me on a screen

The more time goes on
by Chris Hudson | Apr 18, 2018 | Life, Recent Poems, Short Poems
The more time goes on

Time sits heavily on the marbled mantlepiece
I’m not sure if you’re real or you’re fake
The life you live is so outlandish
Le soleil brille
by Chris Hudson | Apr 18, 2018 | Life, Recent Poems, Short Poems
Le soleil brille, la mere est calme et plat, c’est un jour claire et brillant Dans le ciel des nuages flottaient comme des cheveaux en courant.
Les bateaux de peche ascende et descende gentillement
Des cries entendus des oiseax, les fleurs qui fleurissent,
Les ballades, insensibles des insectes chantaient
Et moi, humaine, inondee par des pensees.

In a puddle of bedraggled fag ends, locked in the loo
Restructured, renovated and riven, mill pond pedestal

Jumped the gun, was working when should have been having fun,

FRAGMENTS of life is all we have
Crazy-Paving Yellowbrick-Shithouse
Road to Nowhere Everywhere

On my travels I met a man of wisdom
Who said, “Now you are healed,”
But my head was too full
Of a thousand stories untold

All native instincts were rooted out
by Chris Hudson | Apr 4, 2018 | Life, Recent Poems, Short Poems
All native instincts were rooted out, mankind in utopia where
There was no anger or hate, yet the state still kept
Banks and banks of plasma guns, just in case, they said,
We should be invaded from outer space.

As I go on my round of late
I see bodies, with shambling gait
I wonder, do they suffer the cramp
Or rooves that leak and houses damp?

Taken from afar
