We’re told by those that be
How it is
How things are, just to believe
Dig in your pockets and give
Whether it’s a government
A religious group
Or another that has anger to vent
We the normal people will always lose
‘Freedom fighters’ or terrorists
Whatever you want to call them
Only have their own interests
Not to those they claim to defend
Too long have we been sheep
Doing as we’re told
Don’t believe a word they feed
Stand firm and take a hold
Food on the table is what counts
Not their selfish needs
Family and loved ones you are bound
Not those with false beliefs
Don’t believe a word
Please don’t believe a word
Please please please
Don’t believe a word

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...''
