The die are rolled everyday
In this game of life we play
Collect 200 or miss a go
Go to jail with the next throw
Politicians play us like pieces on a board
Whilst they live it up as wealthy lords
Collecting taxes as they move
It’s us this game that’ll lose
‘Tis the way of things in a game
Where cheats and the lucky do reign
Playing high stakes with our lives
It’s no wonder the monopolize
Hopefully a player will come along
And do what needs to be done
Playing to win with every roll
Of the dice to save our souls

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...''
