Bit of luck
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Popped out to buy a paper
Returned five days later
Met a woman in the street
Very elegant very sweet
Woman with a lovely smile
In her company stayed awhile
We talked about our lives
How in life we did survive
We drank a lot and got
To no each other it was
Very pleasant now hard
To recover.
The twist is the best bit
I had met my mother

Exciting path
Mark Bell Nov 2024
You came to me
Bolt out of the blue
With manipulative
Words I love you
You played my heart
Tinkered with my soul
You gave  me life
It was rock and roll.
You made me cry
You made me laugh
We ended up on a
Exciting path
Together as one
We would dance all night
The stars would shine
The loving was right

Loneliness of a father
Mark Bell Nov 2024
When one was a child
Many a thought
Never listen to father
Wrongly taught
Values were wrong
Society to blame
He hated his son
Because  I played
A different game
Father could not see
Passed his wretched nose
There was no seeing
There was no prose
He took his shallowness
To his resting place
Sometimes It is hard being
a member of the  human race

My mate
Mark Bell Nov 2024
My mate Vincent
Diamond geezer
Loved poppy juice
And his Mona Lisa
Upon a darken starry night
He would show her
His guiding light,
With all his sunflowers
And a wooden chair
Mona Lisa wanted to share
My mate Vincent
Diamond geezer
Did everything for mona
But could not please her.
This left Vincent very sad
Down and out feeling bad
Of to the asylum
With a smile there he
Would paint and stay awhile
He always missed his Mona Lisa
He still died a earless geezer

Labels do lie
Mark Bell Nov 2024
I wandered lonely
As a perfect loon
With my bake bean tin
And my silvery spoon
Kings and queens
Would bow to me
I’m the happy enemy
Singing all dancing
Such a happy chap
I’m a nuclear bomb
In a bowler hat
This ****** loon
Once kissed the sun
Jumped over the moon
Just having some fun
My bake bean tin
And my silvery spoon
in tow
Explosion of laughter
In the horror show
I’m just the jester
A perfect disguise
When the bake bean tin
Explodes
The laughter dies

First love
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Years have passed
You suddenly died
It was long ago
You were my bride
Thoughts of you
Passed daily
Through my mind
Never once going blind
We Will be together again
In heaven above
Stay twinkling my star
My sweet love

My sweet lady
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Blue river runs softly
Through my mind
Eradicating dark thoughts
That have been unkind
Blue river runs sweetly
Through my eyes
Eradicating images whom
Have been unkind
Blue river runs kindly
Inside my tears
Conquering despair
And all my fears
Blue river has hope
She gave me life
I took her hand and
She became my wife

The evil quill
Mark Bell Nov 2024
The poetry writer
With an evil quill
Disguised as poems
These writings did ****
Readers were tempted
Into there impending demise
Into the reading you hear the cries
The pages of this book
We’re bound by dread
The horror would come
The more you read,
By the end the writings
you died with a smile
Reading this ******* was it worthwhile?
The poetry writer
With an evil quill
Took to writing like
Flour in the mills
The more people read
The more it would ****
So don’t be tempted
Go on give it a go
Open the book let the evil flow

Shocking
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Sitting on this electric chair
There dabbing water on my hair
Not long just seconds to go
Life for me was one hell of a show.

I was bad
I was good
So so sad
Misunderstood

Chemicals in my head
Would send me awry
Thee anger within
Made good people cry

This anger inside me
Was to be my doom
Society locked me up
Had bars round my room

Had I really committed a crime
Was I so bad
Was I not good
All of my writings
Were written in blood

Born from testicles of
Rotten hate
This was karma
This was fate
There pressing the switch
There closing the gate
Whoops I’m gone!
Nov 2024 · 27
Two winds
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Walking cobbled streets
In thee old part of town
A beautiful lady passed
Wearing red flowing gown
Street lights did flicker
They seemed to be in awe
Looking a million dollars
She was top box office draw
She second glanced me
Sent my heart a good rate
Then she suddenly stopped
And asked me for a date
Confused and bemused
I was not going to say no
From that moment onward
Two winds would blow.

Twisted dream
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Forever together
We will love
Through life
Together forever
We will be
Husband and wife.
We shall make love
Make young together
Forge a wonderful
Family bond forever.
Ups and downs
Have bumps and scrapes
Watch our offspring
Taking shape
Forever together
Our family as one
Making memories
Under golden sun
All of this is just a lie
As I blew my brains out
Sweet I die.

Sparkling eyes
Lips so red
Never blue
Loving you

Tender touch
Skin of silk
Never blue
Loving you

Diamond smile
Welcoming prose
Loving you

Your are alive
I am just dead
I’m just flawed
In my sweet head
Never blue
Loving you.

Summer love
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Strawberry lips
Ice creams
Summer days
Seaside dreams
Bikini lady
Iced teas
Sun glasses
Sweet memories
Young love
Sanded toes
Summer days
With my purple rose
Swimming in each
Others tears
T L C conquering
All our fears
Blossoming hearts
More colourful years.

How I feel
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Icicles forming in a burning flame
Up the track on a speeding train
Numbers dancing on a roulette wheel
It really doesn’t matter how I feel

You walked away its the game you play
You burn my heart every single day
Your a paper plane heading for the sun
You are in my heart you are my fun

Life not worth living without
my cotton wool bomb
So sweet and corrosive handling everything
with such aplomb
Numbers dancing on a roulette wheel
Still not thinking how I feel

Icicles still freezing inside my fire
Your Still riding over all my desires
Numbers still dancing on the roulette wheel
Never understanding how I feel

You walk away it’s the game you play
Red and black I just can't  turn back.
Nov 2024 · 35
Me and you
Mark Bell Nov 2024
If I was a woman
And you were a man
The label don’t matter
It’s what’s in the can
Look at you my Walter Mitty
Is the label that makes you pretty
Who really cares what we think or do
In the end it’s just me and you.

Up and down
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Crystal swans
Fly in golden skies
The rifleman takes aim
The bullet flies
Stuck in a life of perpetual ****
With crystal swans
In golden skies
Can you ask the rifleman
To shoot me between the eyes
Let’s take a moment and ask
Why oh why
Light and darkness dance
Around the golden sun
The bullet and the rifleman must
Have there fun
Nov 2024 · 121
Bizarre
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Elephants riding bicycles
Giraffes driving cars
Monkeys flying aeroplanes
It’s seems not to bizarre
Fish catching people
Hippos on the bus
I don’t see a problem
to be kicking up a fuss,
Frogs kissing zebras
While hyenas play guitar
Now understanding the other ***
Now that’s to bizarre.

Empty
Mark Bell Nov 2024
Empty chair
Where once you sat
Empty bed
Where once you slept
Empty days
Where once you slept
Empty days
Where once we walked
Empty prose
Where once we talked
Empty face
Where once had a grin
Empty aura
Which died within
Oh well !
Nov 2024 · 578
One more night
Mark Bell Nov 2024
One more night
One more morning
Skin on skin
Warmth of your smile
Fragrant breath
Please stay awhile.
Days are long
Colourless sky
With you there’s  no why
Give me the dark
Give me the light
One more morning
One more night
Flesh on flesh
Sweet!

Just a thought
Mark Bell Mar 2021
Mothers fathers sons and daughters
These trade wars will end in mindless ..slaughter
History as told us about capital gain
On poor old humanity acid will rain.

The bankers are blinded on pure greed
Amazon and apple just plant the seed
The carrot is dangled. Humans  believe
This is where governments play and deceive.

Snowflakes are on there mobile phones
Make up girls in bedrooms all alone
Trying to live not knowing nature is blood
But in reality we are all lost,  and  misunderstood .

Mass migration the whole world is a disease
Global climate we need a good freeze
Viruses thrive when humanity is weak
I think the framework of humanity is starting to creak.
Jan 2021 · 217
Emptiness
Mark Bell Jan 2021
Sold my soul to the devil
No good to me
Loneliness as eaten it bad
Cash came in handy.

My being not worth a dime
Loneliness should be made a crime
Sold my soul to the devil
Is life a waste of time.

Life been good
Life been bad
Soul so sad
Cash came in handy.

Never asked to be given life
Who gave me this emptiness
Chemicals in my brain
Am I going lady ga ga.

Doom and gloom
Mark Bell Jan 2021
The doors were open in 48
Diseases have been spread
Global immunity I think not
We just morn the dead.

To **** a virus the host must die
Nature will not cower away,
A virus is the hangman
Inside this deadly play.

All viruses are dead
Until it finds a host
immune system overload
Do you hear the Last post.

Close the doors
Humans rebel
Close the doors
Creates hell.

Good times
Bad times
Viruses have the upper hand
Good times bad times
Death across the land

Drugs versus nature
Mark Bell Jan 2021
A shot in the arm
Then life goes on
A serum for the weak
Nature is always harsh.

playing with fire
Who lives and dies
hear humanity cry
Laws of nature do not apply.

Save the weak
Save the old
Save the vulnerable
Disaster will unfold.

Drug companies have
Found their holy grail
Humanity will crumble and fall
7 billion customers,there
Going to have a ball.

Variant diffrent every year
The money keeps rolling in
Get your shot in the arm
At seventy life begins.

Mess around with dieing
Then Life becomes a mess.
Suicide rate will hit a high
Life becomes a game of chess.

Bullet or a virus
Mark Bell Oct 2020
Soldiers who runs  away from death
Them cowards they would say
A bullet or a virus
Cannot tell the time of day.
they should have had a lockdown
Not sent them youngsters of to war
Now if they would have stayed at home
They would have lived for sure.

Bullet or a virus
Both muck about
With our heads
What are we running away from

Time should not be wasted
Mark Bell Jun 2020
Tick tock tick tock
Time is at a low
Tick tock tick tock
Where shall we all go.

Heaven will not except this
It can feel all the angry hate
Heaven is this natural world
Stop before its to late.

We are just passengers
Stuck in a hateful time
this world will eradicate us
Like it has done in the past.

Tick tock tick tock
Time will always decide
tick tock tick tock
When two worlds wish to collide.

Fly the flag of hypocrisy
Dance to the establishment tune
Fly the flag of madness
As the cow jumped over the moon.

Species of animal is broken
Mark Bell Jun 2020
I'm sorry for being white
I'm sorry for being black
I'm sorry we can't enjoy life
We are broken that's a fact.

I'm sorry that you hate me
I'm sorry that I hate you
I'm sorry that we don't understand
Ask God to give us a clue.

Humans are broken people,
We have slaughtered through the years
Then how do we solve this problem
It's in the darkness in our tears.

Change don't come in prose
Slaughter has been the way
Millions more will feel the pain
It's in bred inside the day.

I'm sorry for being poor
I'm sorry for being rich
I'm sorry I was never asked to be born
And neither were ******* you.
Jun 2020 · 144
I took the blame
Mark Bell Jun 2020
My sweet love now gone
20 years,maybe more
Still wishing that one day
She will walk through the open door.
Alas I know, it shall never will be
See I shot her through the head
when I was 23.

The lack of chemicals in my brain
My heart will never cry
She will dance inside my eyes
Until the day I die

It was my fault she had no life
I took all the heartless blame
The ****** and the dopamine
Thought it was a sweet little game.

20 years more to serve
I know I'll never be free
Caged and broken from ones birth
a human lost that's me.

Under privileged no
Mark Bell Jun 2020
I had no shoes
Just Hand me down pants
Not a pair of trainers in sight,
Food was scarce
Boredom was rife
It was freezing cold at night.
Don't insult me by saying
I was under privileged .
Tv was a pleasant dream
Not a dazzling 60inch screen
Not much contact, oh we did moan
we did not idle on ones  mobile phones
Please mr bbc do not say we were poor
We were not rotten to the privileged core.
Everybody's so sorry for the ******* past
Everybody,s trying to be right
Take your head from up your ****
I'm not interested in your plight.
Jun 2020 · 105
Lives don't matter
Mark Bell Jun 2020
Lives do not matter
Black or white
We are just statistics
In a bucket of *****.

Blacks **** blacks
Whites **** whites
Death toll mounts
In a bucket of *****

The horrors we inflict
Race upon race
Lives don't matter
It's power we chase.

Whom do's a life matter
In a bucket of *****
Because we are only a number
Black or white.

I'm sorry it's fantasy
Mark Bell Jun 2020
I'm sorry for being me
I'm sorry for you being you
I wish we were all the same
You know it's all laughable

I want us to be all rich
And live where we are equal
I wish it we were the same you and me
You know it's a all  just fantasy.

I teach you what's right and wrong
You teach me what's right and wrong
We all hold hands and skip with glee
You know the world is a fantasy

There is no bad just only good
all races smiling all understood
All races agreeing you and me
I'm so sorry you will never see this fantasy

Words like racism gone forever
All roses and ice cream
Just as we turn the corner ,blink
in the back ground you will
all hear humanity scream.
Mark Bell Jun 2020
Living in the shade
Yearning for light
When you get it,
It will surely burn

Grass is Greener
On the other side
Fantasy a wonderful thing
Heartache and yearning
Without wisdom and learning
Can then change really begin.

Minorities want change
Earning it with words
You no it only comes with death
It's the way, It hurts to say
And really ******* absurd.
Jun 2020 · 119
When the oppressed rise up
Mark Bell Jun 2020
When the oppressed rise up
The death toll mounts
There is no other way

Seeds are sown
In violence today
The death toll will mount
There is no other way

Minority's claw
For a piece of the cake
The death toll will rise
Our futures are at stake.

Changes only happen
In the flames of hell
The death toll will rise
And take you as well.

Power and control
With bullet less guns
You can't be ruled by the weak
Paradise with out racism
It's a fantasy you seek.

The world will slip back into hell
Millions of will surely die
The seeds of today have now been sowed
Humans again will cry.
Jun 2020 · 149
A gun with no bullets
Mark Bell Jun 2020
Grasping at the future
With an empty bucket
The Sun and the moon
Writing there obituaries
while earthlings say **** it.

Holding on to the past
Laden down with hate
the rich and the poor
Writing their obituaries
It's the earthlings fate.

Living in the present
Darkness in the sky
The seeds of the future
Will germinate
And then still ask ******* why.
Jun 2020 · 116
Virus verses skin colour
Mark Bell Jun 2020
Disease 19 has been killing all races for fun
Now there out there protesting humans are dumb

Disease 19 will not care about the colour of skin
This pesky little virus will **** you from within.

Disease 19 starts to spread and and the death toll shall rise
so all of this protesting against raceism is not ******* wise

Of to the hospital I can not breathe
You ******* dumb animals it's hard to believe
Mark Bell Jun 2020
Lives don't matter black or white
Control is the establishments way,
Dumb animals as humans are
We are a statistic in a game they play.

Bricks through windows rioting *****
Do you really think they give a ****,
Countries send millions to there deaths
They don't give a **** between black or white
They just give them number,a loaded gun
to surrender or stand up and fight.

Animals are racist that's what we are
A species divided between love and hate
The only time of true equality
Is when you walk through the pearly gates.

We are blinded by the colour of ones skin
Every animal has Bright blood red
Violence has its always been
Us The statistics end up dead

Health
Mark Bell Apr 2020
In a cue thee other day
To buy some basic needs
Three people smoking tobacco
Wearing Protective masks indeed
This virus is a respiratory disease
It attacks the way we breathe
Us dumb humans succumb
And ******* bleed
Apr 2020 · 133
Virus
Mark Bell Apr 2020
As an animal species
The old must die
Other species fight this
They do not cry
There's no nhs
The genes must survive
That's what keeps
There species alive.
When young are weak
The future looks bleak
thee old take drugs to survive
You can not sustain this madness
To keep humanity alive.

Look for a brighter side
Mark Bell Apr 2020
do some coke
Drink some wine
Really don't care if
The sun don't shine

Do some ******
Drink some ***
Really don't care if
The blues have come

Do some whiskey
Smoke some ***
Really don't care if
You die or not

Isolation
*******
Fill the screen with ****
Really don't care
From the day I was born
Mark Bell Apr 2020
I think the Chinese
Got this all Wong
The virus to spread
To quell the riots in honk Kong

A trade war with America
Starvation has begun
So let's spread a virus
And have some financial fun

Americans and the Chinese
The Germans and Jews
So let's spread the virus
And give the world the blues

Bankrupt all countries
China will provide
America will give loans
While governments still lie

Spread the virus
Far and wide
Communism democracy
I'll let you decide

Mass migration stops
Before it's to late
Millions start cueing
At the pearly gates

Why don't the Chinese play cricket
Because they ate all the bats

Afraid of oneself
Mark Bell Nov 2019
Crawling out from under my stone
10,000 years I've been there,have I?
My prey is that I want to eat myself
So I can become something I'm not.

Devil ,God and the deep blue sea
Everybody seems to want a part of me.

I have no mirrors, there evil.

Ode to war
Mark Bell Nov 2019
Dead dead when you could have lived
Freedom is it all worth it.
You experience no freedom when your dead
Bullet in the brain, medal on chest
Do warmongers really want to do there best.
Let's all run with the monkey pack
**** or be killed thats what they say
death is just a battlefield
where children fear to play.
War memorials,
obituaries in tutorials
A statue,poppy oh so read
War is a game,
A game to play where the participants end up dead.

Sweet marie
Mark Bell Nov 2019
Sweet Marie a lover of mine
oh well she died
I didn't,I never cried.
Sweet Marie,oh was so sweet
I wished,why did we meet.
Sleeping alone has its desire
sweet Marie died,then she caught fire.
I got her ashes in a urn
Love is for idiots when do we learn.
Nov 2019 · 197
Love oh well
Mark Bell Nov 2019
To love is to sing in lovers meadows
To love is to burn,to love is to bury
To love is to bleed in lovers eyes
And then ditch them.

Chains
Mark Bell Nov 2018
Born in chains
Razor blade rains
Freezing cold fires
Non born desires

The faith I keep
I shall not weep
Battles daily
Battlefield called life
These chains I fight

I ride into the sun
On a sleigh of ice
I dance in the rain
Knowing its all inane

Chained into restrictions
I was born ,to many rules
Chained into a stewpot
These links I must fool

Bound to be unbounded
I need to be freed
Chains and lock
Keep me an unfertilised seed

My life .
My chair
My chains
My faith
I die
Nov 2018 · 199
Feeling of not being open
Mark Bell Nov 2018
A heart without love
Space without stars
an unused womb
It's a lonely place.

Unspoken words
An unwritten tune
A melody without a stave
Who am I to walk alone
Slowly to my grave.

Withering away
Closing of mind
Sadness of the dark
I am the lonely place
Nov 2018 · 315
Daydreaming
Mark Bell Nov 2018
Trees they wave
To welcome the birds
I sit and drink my tea
Thine eyes are the portal
To my imagination
Why is number four next to three?
I wonder in awe
My gaze is blind
welcoming hello's
It's sweet I find.
On a day dreaming bench
My thirst I shall quench
As the trees welcome in the birds.

Dancing with the clown,
Big red nose,big red boots
Knocking the boundaries down.

Hatred
Mark Bell Oct 2018
Naked humans cannot hate
It's symbols and clothes
Determine our fate
They say it's good to belong
This is why humans
Have got it all wrong.
The whole wide world should
Be one big nudist camp,
Everybody the same
Blood is blood
Is hatred natural or just
Mis-understood.
Oct 2018 · 273
Incitement
Mark Bell Oct 2018
Death is just a breath away
Cut your throat now no delay
Life is just more wasting time
Can this ditty be really a crime
Go on do it ,you really well can
Blade is sharp is it all going to plan
Listen to me heaven can't wait
So cut your throat before its to late.

My friend Jane
Mark Bell Oct 2018
i want to be good
But that's not me
I'm terribly bad
And I do so agree.
Internal ramblings
In my twisted brain
Abyss of darkness
Where I met Jane.
Dear dear Jane
My manipulative friend
You tangled me in your web
Dear dear Jane
My psychopath friend
We shall dance till we are dead.

The end
