Saw in the news today
Trials still go on
For the murder of lawmen
By pawns for times long gone
So many have suffered
For those in political power
Who sits from on high
In their golden towers
The pawns weak in their belief
Follows like rabid lambs
Lost in a scary fever
For a piece of disputed land
Whomsoever is in power though
Will have the final say
Whether the land returns to
Its people is another game they’ll play
For the average joe in the street
May fight tooth and nail for the cause
But when the time does come
They’ll be the ones to give pause
For they’ll be forgotten
In the games of mankind that’s played
For it’s all about money and power
The dreams a hook that’ll fade

I'm a thinker, listener, a "question's pretty much everything" type of person. A seeker of knowledge, always restless, yet seeks the calm in life.
I love writing in all forms and am in the process of completing a number of ongoing projects. I love the craft of writing and the possibilities it holds. A magic carpet through the mind. I love pretty much all creative arts, music, film and theatre the leading ones.
Born in Hertfordshire in England, my family Irish, Welsh and English, I currently reside in Edinburgh, in Scotland. I'm drawn to coastal and mountain regions where I like to go to think and draw inspiration from. Ireland is a place that's dear to me, and I try to get back to see family and friends as much as possible.
My interests are wide and broad, too many to mention here, but history, archaeology, criminology, music and film are just some of those things I love.
I hope you enjoy my ramblings on here as that's what they are really. I'll let my fingers do the ''talking...''
