ALL TOGETHER NOW

IONOSPHERE, STRATOSPHERE.
NO OZONE, NO FRESH AIR
CHOKING UP, SMOKING UP
YOU CAN'T SEE THE AIR DISSAPPEAR
BLOOD MONEY, YOU KNOW IT'S NOT FUNNY
MEAT CLEVERS LIFE STEALERS
A PRICE ON FLESH, A PRICE ON LIFE
CLEARING DEBTS SLAUGHTER HOUSE 5


BLACK GOLD MONEY ROLLS
IN YOUR POCKET BURNING HOLES
YOU'VE GOT A WEDGE, YOU'VE GOT AN EDGE
TELL ME ARE YOU TURNING COLD

I SAY

NO DEPOSTIT NO RETURN
SEE THE FORESTS BURN
LIFES BLOOD RUNNING FROM THE VALLEYS
BLIND HEART YOU KNOW THEY'VE GOT TO LEARN.

I SAY
COME ON SAVE THE MOTHER
COME ON AND SAVE THE MOTHER

RADIATION, POLLUTION
THAT'S NO WAY TO EVOLUTION

RADIATION, POLLUTION
THAT'S NO WAY TO EVOLUTION


RAZOR BLADE SUICIDES, SWITH BLADE KNIVES
BACK STABBERS MONEY GRABBERS ALWAYS STEALING LIFE
I SAY, SAY WHAT YOU MEAN

MEAN WHAT YOU SAY
GET DOWN TO BUSINESS NO MORE GAMES TO PLAY


YOU'VE GOT TO LIVE LIFE
NOT THE LIE
GET LIVE
PROTECT AND SURVIVE

POETRY


SALMAGUNDI
NEW REALEASE
Do you like poetry that is clear and understandable as well as being pleasant to read?
Are your memories of poetry at school as being in need of translation into ‘normal’ English before you could even begin to know what the poem was about?
If that put you off poetry, then get ready to be surprised and entertained by poetry that speaks of many of the things you know, in a very readable yet poetic way.
Poetry should be accessible and this poet makes it so.
The title “Gallimaufry” explains that this brilliant book holds poems on a mixture of subjects, each of which will raise a smile or a tear, maybe evoke a memory of a time, place, or person that you knew or loved, for many of these things are shared by all human beings.
Let Salmagundi take you on this journey to some old and some new thoughts; from poems about animals to friendship, from love to pain, humour to inspirational; poems about the beauty and wonder of nature and others of science fiction or fantasy, or the passing of time and even present day concerns.
A book to read and re-read, to enjoy and maybe even quote from, for the natural rhythm of this poet’s work makes much of it easy to remember.
Here is the ISBN number for "Gallimaufry".
