Our stories burst out & begin
In dark alleyways with painted walls
Screaming art
& hidden cameras
Waiting for something to happen
While others laugh & run.
This is where it happens
Where our stories explode
Scattering the city
Painting all the faces
Of the bums & the cops
& the dead men in suits.
This can be our graveyard
Our stories will burn out & cry
Spreading their vivid colour
All over the aching darkness
The midnight pushers
& the red, factory skies.

Poetry: Rebellion
Covered up and closed in
To my childhood dreams I say "fin"

by Terrence Aym
Untitled Poem Due to Author's Sudden Death
I feel no need to obey rules,
Nor do I wish to comply,
With the limits of societal
by Rosa Lee
We Who Understand
You who know but do not understand:
We want not your explanations nor sympathies;
Neither your anger, nor
The Champion Land
We are babes
we want drink and drugs,
we want sex
we want groovy songs.
No more gospel
we want whats hip,
stick
Our stories burst out & begin
In dark alleyways with painted walls
Screaming art
& hidden cameras
Waiting for something
