The Martial Artist

When I was young
Watching Bruce Lee
Kung Fu and Karate
The latter for me

So I put on a suit
Training for years
Constructing a facade
Of stregnth without fear

A warrior to the world
A worrier within
Soon came the time
New battles would begin

Kicking and punching
Remained no longer
Working on myself
My mind became stronger

One glorious day
I learnt not to fight
Becoming yourself
Provides greater insight

Hi my name is Jonathan Joseph, I am 36 years old living in Warrington, Cheshire with my two children. I was inspired to start writing rhymes and poems again some twenty years after leaving school, maybe its taken me that long to find my voice again?

Invisible

Gotta be honest,. I really don't care. What the guys I like look like. As long as they're there. When I need them. Even when I don't. I just want to be looked after. By someone on whom I dote.

Monday

I wake up and my hair is a mess, Clothes all over the floor, Tired after a night of chess, My throat is dry and sore, A dirty sink I need to clean, Piles of paperwork on my bed, A pair of underwear...
