"West End Gee"- R.I.P.
After over 190 shows of bright lights, live mics and fighting daily stage fright, "West End Gee" has finally left the building. Yes, "Into the Hoods" has been the first Hip Hop production to ever reach the West End and broke the record for being the longest running Dance show there (previously held by Swan Lake). It's truly been an amazing experience for me and despite Russell's tireless fishing for any sordid gossip, the bait was never taken (smile).
It was a bit of a strange show with both Alex James's and Noel Gallagher's phones being on the blink. I guess that the old Blur vs Oasis rivalry even extends into the realm of mobile network reception. Next week, it'll be the countdown to the Video Music Awards..... hmmmm do you think perhaps we can expect Morrisey's name to surface somewhere amongst the nominees?
The Fired House
With the final octave that rocked it,
Rings for Roses, test optics,
Faceless voices expose choices,
With God's endorsements of shocked bits,
The good Doctor's space-hopped it,
With a Lord Viking or Hobbit,
Befriending a Branson with the plan to fly cheap super-sonic,
Air bag the vomit,
Alex James "flute-winking" symphonic,
Bellowing to Cellos in devil-throes of broom handle colonic,
Adorning Laura with an award for her Fraggle Rock scoring,
Wet-tailing the genitalia until the VMAs are calling!

Seeing as Russel is so very sexy, do you think he has ever tried the Monkey Spanker?

Where are you now?
You're here with me.
Sit a while, wait and see.
Is there a place you have to rush off?
Who am I, with intentions aloft?
There is no answer, when in human eyes,
We seek to find.
Our perception lies.
The confusing anomily ends up with Sighs.
Where right is wrong
And wrong is right.
The grey areas,
Stretch to black and white.
The answer is here,
no need to fight.
Let reason flood in,
Restore your sight.
All I have worked for,
I must leave behind.
To open my eyes,
We are all so blind.
Is there a hope,
In the battle for the mind?
Unreal, realization,
I must find.
To the place of trust, we must go.
To the root of understanding, we must show;
When it comes to our hearts we just don't know.
We need to submit, to let the true blood flow.
Bieng pulled from left to right,
By unknown means.
Holding us back with strings,
Is how it seems.
When we want to cut ties,
Let go and live in streams.
We must look to the world,
Beyond its present fom.
Where life and death,
Finds the curtain torn.
Where we can reach up and touch the light.
The world must fade, touch whats out of sight.
Let go of the pain and trouble,
You dont need to struggle,
do it with all your might,
You are made to climb the heights.
The window opened,
We can catch a glimps.
Where we can see,
Ourselves as accepted
And whole.
An affirmation of bieng,
Purpose and goal.
A sence of belonging,
A home for our soul.
We cannot earn, our own strength takes its toll.
Come, greet,touch,love and make your heart whole.

What happened when we were sent to different tribes and different tongue.
We split apart and were no longer one.
All we held in common and saw familiar.
Broke down to suspicion.
No longer able to stand shoulder to shoulder, present and linear.
We're ready to crack and hound from our own volition.
Mouths open, ferile beasts, growling at the sound of perdition.
We were once clothed with equality and love
Given the honour of a great commission
Our hearts beating gently like a homing dove
We saw our value as we stood together
Aware of a shining light that would bind our hearts
Wearing ornaments of splendour
Singled out forever
As we fitted into place we could face natures changes
We were drawn into the brightness of bieng set apart.
Loves tender touch for us, chaffs and smarts.

When you stood in the garden
You could have been anyone, there was a pardon
You did'nt reveal yourself at first
Till your heart went out to quench the thirst
A sense of shock was all around
You gently tilled the ground
It was as if it was business as usual
Nothing had changed all seemed the same,
Apart from the funeral
The birds were singing,
the sepulcher bare
There was the sound of desperation in the air.
Hearts were tense about to break
When as if yawning , your revelation, you make.
Minimum drama, the ground did'nt shake
In resurrection, an offering, to make, was at stake.
Yet, although you had this commission too fulfill
You still had time to come and instill
To banish the doubts, take away the pain
You never thought of personal gain
What a day that must have been
To behold the most beautiful dream
You did your part in reconciliation
For us, its the heart of perfect incarnation
Without you there would be only sight sound and touch
Our lives would never amount to much
Because they would be missing the key
That unlocks all of heavens hope and glee
If we could only see, who you were
In histories backdrop of incense and Murr
What the gold and holy night promised
The joy and freedom, we would not err
At last the way is made clear
All truth is at hand it is near
By someone we can trust, who is honest.
To know there is a land, that reaches down to the dust and sand
Lifting us into the arms of love
Full of compassion from above.

I just went in my time machine to the past. Last summer, there were cowboy boots and the sort. To prove the time machine is real, I brought back a momento or two.
Poems of the past, parhaps they will take us into the future.

Glistening glints of new horison
Aching hearts confused and tiresome
Lifted and broken
Saturated and awoken
Loves radiance shifts and surrounds
as the chill of the evening dreads and hounds
Two sounds one wrong one right
altogether mingled in sight
Views of justice honour and might
sullied by monstrous tunnels of light
Spirit can see what body cannot
Keep faith with the promise or
strengthen the knot
Reality lurks ready and hot
Wasted spents always on tour
Grossly negated
Mostly to draw
Effervesent longing
hat on
leave me a tip
Someday it will all come out
to a dance in a skip

I LOVE ALL THE ENTERTAINING GAMES THE MP,S ARE GIVING US.
IN THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT WESTMINSTER.
THEY ARE REALLY CAUSING A STIR.
CHASING AROUND PLAYING TAG WITH ALL VIGOUR.
IT PROVIDES THE MOST EFFECTIVE SMOKE SCREEN.
ALLL FOCUS IS ON THROWING OLD TEDDY OUT OF THE BED.
THE OTHER TOYS ARE JUMPING UP AND DOWN, CAUSING MAYHEM.
WHILST ALL THIS GOES ON, THE SINISTER SCHEMES OF SOME OF THE DESTRUCTIVE TOYS ARE GOING AHEAD UNNOTICED.
CAUSING THE GREAT AND ENTERTAINING FUROUR, THEY ARE ABLE TO DRIVE FORWARD THE PLANS TO DESTROY THE ECONOMIC PROVISION OF THE POOREST.
ALL SWEET ALALOLIES APART.............
THE SECTION OF MPS AGAINST GORDY ARE TIDILY THE CULPRITS WHO WANT TO DRIVE THE WELFARE SYSTEM TO THE
GROUND.
THE SYSTEM SET UP TO PROTECT SINGLE PARENTS AND THE MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY INFIRM.
BY THE END OF OCTOBER THEIR PLAN WILL COME INTO FRUITION.
THEY WOULD HAVE CAPTURED EVERYONES ATTENTION. MAKING THEM ILLEQUIPED TO DEAL WITH THE MATTER OF GREAT CIVIL IMPORTANCE.
THE PLAN IS TO LET EVERONE SEE IT AS A REGULAR BILL AND PASS IT AS SUCH.
ALL SINGLE PARENTS WHO DON'T WORK WILL LOSE THEIR CIVIL LIBERTY TO BE A STAY HOME MUM.
THE FAMILY WILL TAKE FURTHUR BLOWS. AS GOVERNMENT SUCCESFULLY ERODES THE BRITISH 2FAMILY2 IN WHATEVER COLOUR OR ORIENTATION IT COMES.
WORK WORK WORK.
THE FAT CATS WIL EARN EARN EARN.
NONE OF THE MONEY WILL ACTUALLY FILTER DOWN TO THE PUBLIC AS ALL IS ALWAYS CREAMED OFF, AND GOVERNMENT SQUEEZE WITH US TIGHTLY IN ITS STONEY, SPIKEY HAND.
DEMOCRACY, HA WHAT A JOKE.
HYPOCRICY, OR CIRCUSOCRITY, OR IDIOCRITY..........SLIMEOCRITY...PAYED OFFRITY.
BIG BUSINESS HAVE TAKEN GOVERNMENT AND USED IT AS A PAWN TO MOULD THIS COUNTRY INTO A SHAM.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RICH AND POOR HAS NEVER BEEN SO ACUTELY FELT.
THERE IS NO ROOM FOR LOSERS.
NO ROOM FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT OFFER A PINCH OF SALT TO THE GREAT MAN.
IF YOU ARE FALLING, WELL NOW IS THE TIME TO TRULLY FALL AS THERE WILL BE NOONE TO CATCH YOU.
MY BEST FRIEND SUFFERS FROM MENTAL ILLNES.
SHE SOMETIMES HAS TO BE SECTIONED AND DRAGGED AWAY BY THE POLICE, STRAPPED DOWN AND UNCLOTHED AND INJECTED.
DRAGGED AWAY IN THE
SIGHT OF HER 11 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER.
TO BE RETURNED 8 WEEKS LATER, DRUGGED UP TO SUBDUE HER PSYCOTIC SCHITZOPHRENIA.
FOR MONTHS ON END SHE SHOOK LIKE A LEAF,
STRUGGLED TOTH AND NAIL FROM RELAPSING. TRYING WITH ALL HER MIGHT TO KEEP IN A REALITY THAT IS ACCEPTABLE.
WHILE IN HER MIND SHE IS HAUNTED BY FEAR.
NOW A MONTH OR SO OUT OF THE WOODS, GIVEN MORE MEDICATION FOR THE SIDE EFFECTS, THE SHAKING AND ADDED DEPRESSION.
SHE FOR A SHORT TIME APPEARS OK.
THE JOB CENTRE CALL HER UP EVERY TWO MONTHS, HARRASSING HER.
SAYING 2 YOU SEEM OK TO WORK."
I AM AT MY WHITS END, HOME SCHOOLING, NOT A GOVERNMENT POLICY TO DO SO.
SO I AM BIENG FORCED TO WORK.
LEAVING MY SON AND I THE PROSPECT OF TAKING A 60 POUNDS DECREAS IN INCOME.
I ONLY GET 111 POUNDS, ANYWAY, TO PAY THE TV LICENCE, WATER, SEWERAGE, GAS AND ELECTRIC AND PHONE BILLS.
HOW ARE SINGLE PARENTS LANGUISHING ON SUCH A FRUGAL HANDOUT.
WHEN BIG BUSINESS, ARE GIVEN A FREE CARD TO AVOID TAX OR FACE ANY CONSEQUENCES.
THEY ARE ABLE AND FAVOURED BY OUR ELECTED GOVERNMENT.
FLAGGED TO CONTINUE MAKING MEGGA BUCDKS AND NOT PAY FOR THE PRIVILAGE.
THEY HAVE GOVERNMENT, SO TIDILY AND COMFORTABLY, IN THEIR POCKETS.
DEMOCROCY, MY HAT.
WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FAIR.
GAFFAW!
I DON'T THINK SO.
ONCE ELLECTED AND IN SIDE THE FILTHY ROOMS IN WESTMINSTER,THE MPS SLOWLY ROT, AND MORPH INTO REPTILES.
LEAVING THEIR PUBLIC DUTIES BEHIND THEM.
FORGOING THEIR CONSTITUENTS NEEDS FOR THE GLITZ AND DAZZLE OF THE GREAT HAMSTER WHEEL OF POWER.
DROOLING OVER THE CROWN OF PM.
GET OFF IT!
OPEN THE WINDOWS AND LET SOME AIR IN.
PLEASE LEAVE SINGLE PARENTS ALONE UNTIL THEIR DEPENDENTS ARE SIXTEEN. SO THEY STILL HAVE SOME ENERGY TO INTERACT WITH THEIR CHILD. tHE CHILD WHO HAS ONLY ONE PERSON TO LOOK TO TO MENTOR THEM.
RATHER THAN A PAIR OF EXPENSIVE TRAINERS AS A PAYOFF FOR NEGLECT.
THE GREAT WAR IN IRAQ IS DELIVERING FATAL DIVIDENDS.
AS WE IN LOVELY FIRST WORLD AFFLUENCE IGNORE THE OCCUPATION. AS IT IS AN UNCOMFORTABLE FACT.
THE VALUABLE RESOURSES IT SYPHONS OFF.
TO MAINTAIN MOMENTUM, IS CAUSING THE WORLD ECONOMY TO CRASH.
WHO SUFFERS ?
YOUR ORDINARY MAN, WITH NO ONE TO TURN TO BUT HIMSELF.
THE COST OF THIS WAR IS HUGER THAN THE IMAGINED.
AMERICA POURS ITS RESOURSES IN.
TO NO AVAIL
THE ELECTED MPS DANCE ROUND THE MAYPOLE AND EAT CREAM TEAS IN THER SUNDAY FROCKS WHILE ALL PROPRIETY IS CRUSHED.
THIS IS THE MONSTER YOU HAVE MADE.
THE WAR IS TURNING AROUND AND BITING US IN THE PROVERBIAL.
REAL ISSUES ARE MOCKED BY HOORAY HENRIES.
THERE IS NO INTEGRITY.
JUST CUT THROAT TACTICS AND AMBITION.
AT THE END OF THE DAY WE LIVE THREE SCORE YEARS AND TEN, THEN IT IS ALL OVER.
AFTER THAT AN ALMIGHTY JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL INSTEAD OF YOUR SAD LOT.
EAT DRINK AND BE MERRY, FOR TOMMORROW YOU WILL DIE.
NO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY, FOCUS AND TAKE NOTICE.
THERE IS WORK TO BE DONE.
SORRRY FOR THE STRON G MESSAGE.
TAKE IT AS IF FROM A MEMBER OF YOUR OWN FAMILY, OVER A CUP OF COFFEE.
THE FAMILLY MEMBER JUST GOT UP AND IS A BEAR WITH A SORE HEAD.
CANTANCEROUS.
OF COURSE YOU CAN LAUGH IT OFF.
YOUR AFFECTION ALLOWS YOU TO.
OK
GOD BLESS

A million pounds was donated to the labour party, by a well meaning author.
The money was given to celabrate the governments headlining claim, to " Get children out of poverty"
This claim is only payment of lipservise.
It goes under such a title, so that it can't be detected as a stealthy way to deduct support for single parents.
Disguised as a plan to empower them to work, but actually putting them under undue pressure to keep a meagre income flowing into the home.
There are real threats of punishments and sanctions for non compliance.
Government has turned itself into the long arm of the law.
They pretend that they are feeing us to a consighnment of poverty and benefits.
Acting like they are going to benefit the lives of the poorest.
But, the plan is to withdraw benefit from single parents.
The conditionality is absolute and devoid of compassion.
We are a statistic that is uncomfortable to the great wheels of power.
The man is coming home and kicking the dog.
What did we do wrong.
Why is it so bad that we need assistance.
Women are encouraged to think for themselves in todays society, but not to think in anyway that is domestic. We are not robots.
We need to be there for our children.
The ministry of magic are trully clamping down on all groups that threaten order.
Azkaban is the place for unmarried mothers.
All single parents are having to go before the inquisition and are bieng fined for having the defiance to stay at home.
