Silent ears
block out dead words
Preferring
all noises unheard
Ignoring pleas
or angst in life
This silent Monday
they try to hide
Screams are silenced
by a choice
From the ignorant
ruling voice
As many panic
trying to escape
From those
that keep them caged
So silent Monday
continues on
As it always has
in days long gone
Whilst the sad
go unheard
And the selfish
never learn

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...''
