Solid Stone!
Olivia Kent Sep 2013
Monolith a standing stone always lost.
Can't go anywhere.
Always alone.
Silently standing in monotone.
Lonely stone.

Can he watch what he sees.
Been static a lifetime and more.
Has he got a history wedged in a stone brain.
Does he have all seeing eyes.

Is it cold standing out with the kiss of frost.
Moon rises and sets.
Sun kisses and misses.
Lichen used as a coat.
Does the heat perplex him.

If it does he won't say.
Just takes it all in with his all seeing eyes.
Why is he male.
Just know.
Seemed to fit with a heart of stone.

Dreaming
Olivia Kent May 2014
The stars upon the canvas, spotted dotted, painted white,
Night sky crisp with dreamer's dreams, streaming through the sky,
Can you interpret these flying dreams?
Dancing through the scheme of things,
Oh look, there's a pretty one wearing candy pink,
There's a rugby players dream, decked in a stripy shirt,
A babies dream wriggled slightly by,
not fully able to understand,
Catching dreams of babies, is in such great demand,
In dreams of innocence, and chuckling smiles, so tiny, they make not much sense.
Along trips a nightmare, a terror of war,
hold on tight, the fiery steed of passion scares,
What was caught in your dreams last night, can you remember?

EXHIBIT
Olivia Kent Aug 2015
She's too beautiful for modern man.
She maybe deserved kisses to make her smile.
She's just an image upon dead canvas.
Still heart stopping.
Focus of many eyes.

She's lacking colour.
Dreary but still stunning.
She's worth a million dollars.
Actually priceless.
Not for sale.
Sure some would buy her if they could.

Her face is fixed.
Unsmiling.
Antique lady.
Unchanging.
Eternal.
Gay Paris.
No smile.
Watching the tourists as they just keep passing by.

Sushi lies, shining eyes.
Diamond mines and speeding fines.
Wines and wonders.
Many blunders.
Imperfections,
Rejections,
Cash injections.
Saving grace.
Losing face.
Firing gun, setting sun.
Suicide bomber's numbers up.
Sadly, badly.
Crazily madly.
Laying beyond.
Into future.
Kingdom come.
Setting sun.
So many tears.
So many cry.
Man and his madness.
Makes cherished world die.
Created of vinyl.
Beaten by heat.
This place is not sweet.
Disgraceful ****** taking place daily.

ADULT FAIRY TALE
Olivia Kent Oct 2014
Jumped from his trusty steed, was desiring sweetness' touch.
Silently, he creeps through undergrowth so soft.
Sparkling damp with dew drops, remnants of warm summer shower.
Tales before, had spoke of precious women.
Woman pure who came to bathe in the stream.
Silent he came.
He had to be quiet,
No desire he had to scare them beauties away.

In this tranquil spot, he heard the laughs of woman.
Splashing  dressed only in their naked form.
My how they played.
He watched in silent silhouette, he desired so he not be seen.
The sight of their young adult form , was glory as was perfect poetry before very his eyes,
Purity personified, each and every one.

His body ached ferociously.
Oh for just for one sweet touch.
One such beauty caught his eye.
Eye locked on maiden fair.
Pretty face with flaxen hair.
Hair descended in wavy rivers down her back,'twas shining in the sun.
Shining to his hearts appeal,

His heart was set, his match he'd met.
One knight minus suit of armour,

His only goal to charm her.
Discreet and pure.
Away from stream did lure her kindly.
He did summon her.
By means a little bit absurd made strange cry of a weird bird.
One she'd never heard before.

Each sweet moment, he wanted her more.
He made her jump, near out of her skin.
In the glint of her eye,his maiden now spied,
Her ushered her over.
Cute maiden.
So fair.
By now was feeling truly aroused.
Eyes of fire.
His passion alive.

The knight took his lady.
Placed his cloak upon the grass .
A garland of roses, placed under her head.
She laid calm.
Serene.
Tranquil,

He leaned over her body and kissed her.
His kiss she full returned.
How she yearned.
Gentle caresses.
Relieving his stresses.
while her tresses.
He duly caresses in return!
No distress.
Together in near silence,

They stroked only making contact by eye.
Passion enhances their chances.
As beautiful love bans they make.
Kisses taste of honey shared.
While from the ****** womb surreal.
Supreme.
Sweet scent a woman exudes.
Elusive before newness birthed.
Here enters loves precious joy.
Between ****** young woman and grown up young boy.
A kiss before leaving hard full on her lips,
Hand in hand.
They to go.

An announcement to the ruler of the realm.
Their full intention,
Nothing else to mention.
It was not just ***.
But new love truly.
Another luscious fairy tale.
Another dream come true.

Cupids' really stupid.
Collared loads of loving friends.
Sat here still,
Maybe forever.
Singledom...it never ends.

I cry.
I die,
Oh hell,
why.
I hate being alone.
But sometimes I love it.
I love my space.
No one buys me valentines cards.
I send none myself.
I get no flowers or chocolates...
It can be advantageous.
At least my hay fever stays under control.
No chocolate bulge here...hee hee.
Never to be over weight.
Being single has it's plus points.
Is nearly always great.
My kisses are all candid.
Come share a few with me.

LOST IN TRANSLATION

Mixed messages of love and joy.
Translated by other sites.
You think you penned it right.
Something went wrong.
You're talking of flowers, which in a gorgeous garden grew.
Translated to flour for bread, chucked in a wordy stew.
It's all so confusing, words of blood, became squelching mud.
Oh what is this poetic person to do?
Reminder to self,must not write love poems in foreign tongue to you.
Words of love all painted blue.
Just a little sticky.
Oops.
Could be a little tricky.
You say you want to visit,
In perfect spiel you say "Innit".
The twisted words may become untangled,
Eventually.
When the translation websites all make sense or scents,
They may end up smelling sweet.

Original
Olivia Kent Jul 2014
Tonight I went to see a band,
A kicking band of wild sounds,
Gaelic in origin,
passionate in sound,
tin whistles and bagpipes,
hot wild stage lights,
Not one word was sung,
but the music sure stung.

And then I saw him stood there,
he looked a lot like you,
he did wear a wedding ring,
oh goodness how I sighed,
I got up close and personal,
much closer than I should have been,
took a quick look out of my bright eye,
'Twas only then I noticed the wedding band bore one long word,
engraved into the wearers heart,
Rather like mine too,
The band he wore spoke Poetry,
similar in kind to me,
very kind indeed,
but it wasn't you it couldn't be,
to tell the truth I didn't really expect it to be thee,
as the could only ever be one of you,
you're the original!

Reliever of boredom.

Sleepy squashed,
All washed out.
Nighty night.
Sleep tight.
A poem about anything, told you I could.

Go out.
Buy beautiful clothes.
Dress for vanity's sake.
Spend buckets of dosh,.
To make you look posh.
It's so sublime.
All rather petty.
The real being lives under the clothes.
Beneath that mop of tangled hair may dwell a diamond.
A bright blue sapphire that catches the sun and plays with it.
An emerald that sparkles in the grass.
A precious stone that's eternally yours.
What more could any man want.

"NO"
Olivia Kent Dec 2015
Waited in a graveyard.
Full with silent emptiness.
Until your chains rattle.
Aware again.
Stirring as if a toxic tangerine cocktail.
The chains are sounds of dashing cars and stormy weather.
Playing with the winter trees.
Dried out leaves.
Fiddling with thought patterns.
Incantations.
Flying past onward moving.
Razor blades skimming.
Wild and windy,
Tempestuous.
Teasing thoughts from the abyss.
Taunting.
Teasing.
No more than unwanted recollections.

Erections
Olivia Kent May 2014
Here I sit, in my cell,
Looking at my cell,
Realising,
just how beautiful you are,
you were on a high,
high on emotions,
the emotions being love and fun,
Thinking to myself,
how ****** unjust it is,
that I can make you smile,
but, you won't let me in,
your barriers are set in concrete,
anchored to a hellish fear of love,
somehow breaching your pearly gates,
the heaven that I sent you to,
I can't reach you now,
you have shut down,
Your barriers are made from stainless steel,
You just don't want to feel,
Reality,
when it pokes you smartly in the eyes,
listen to me,
for I am wise,
Wizened,
but wise,
And I am always your friend!

LADIES IN WAITING
Olivia Kent Jan 2015
Ladies of death.
They sit and they wait.
With years of tears they're awaiting a date.
Strung out like ***** laundry, they're waiting for cleansing.
The dusty haze as lights go out.
Heading for heaven, Nirvana or hell.
Corrupted system as no man can tell.
Slamming of cell doors.
Rattling of keys.
Awaiting execution.

Pleas for clemency.
Pleas all ran out.
May justice be done, before their last breath.
Before the setting of this their final sun.
Pray let all the evidence be fitting.
Before the eyes of God the Father.
Openly honest, a proven conviction.

She thinks,
she thinks she could quite like you,
she wonders,
she wonders if offers ever genuine,
are  they worth playing with?

In her life,
genuine is non-existent,
she may even grow to love you,
now,
those roses thorns are all stripped bare,
the once decadent silver foliage,
repatriated to the garden,
to be mulched into dreams of what may come,
compost for the compos mentis,
should the lady of the day be lucky?

Worked all night for two whole nights to try to earn a crust.
Just faced the sunlit sky and my head is fit to bust.

My beating brain is influenced by a Nordic god,named Thor.
My very willing suitor.

My eyes are feeling black as coal.

FROM A SIMPLE SAYING
Olivia Kent Sep 2016
I had one of those but the wheel fell off

I lost the tone of my wobbly piano,
I had one of those but the wheel fell off,...
I fell in a ditch because of this.
A one wheeled bike is a unicycle, and I can't ride one.
I had one of those and the wheel fell off.
I stumbled from the path,
Oh dear,


A passing Arabian from a street market nearby,
Gave me a carpet so that I could fly.
I didn't need my wheels, not one or two or three.
I flew over the houses and crossed the blue sea.
I saw a number of mighty beasts from the briny,
Several fair ships and I'm not being whiney.
It seems to me that I don't need wheels as my carpet's flying high.
Thank you Mr Market Trader.
For now I am a space invader!

Bird sweet bird.
Safe and sound.
Probably better.
Just pecking the ground.

OLD FRIENDS

It's all so different now.
The tide laps onto my toes.
Water swathed with the **** of the sea.
Its salty aroma tantalises my nares.
Once upon a time,
I loved the sea with all of my heart and most of my soul.
The water would soothe all my cares away.

I would stand up in a start as you passed me by yet again.
My Adonis in silver.
I say silver, because time stole the black as it passed.
You never knew.
I was your silent witness.
I'd watch you pass by.
Envious, I'd never say.
I wouldn't dare.
A different woman upon your arm.
Even a man or two.
That baffled me.
I never knew.
Never suspected that I'd be rejected.
We were close.
So close.

A cold shiver, as you walked away.
You left our friendship behind.

As if  pair of faded curtains my life draws to it's end.
Hopefully not too soon, I guess.
Bearing the wind through the overt windows
Teased by blanching sunlight,
Ripped by pulling fingers.
Dated tassels hung from saggy hems.
Wrinkled, in need of ironing.
Life is but one pressing engagement, leading to another.
Long fringe dresses my brow line,
Curtains that inhibit future vision.
Time for a hair cut perhaps.
Lighten the load.

May it please be garnished with the glow of sunshine's kiss.
Bring a change unseasonal.
Such ample bounds of bliss renewed.
Totally abnormal.

Instead of tumultuous wind and rain.
Introduce the sun again.
Let us shake hands with the foxes.
They who left their gloves behind in the park.
Digitalis you know, **,** ,**.
Christmas just gone.
Time for some fun.
And tickle the kittens.
Who discarded their mittens.
On butterfly bushes outside in front gardens.
Cherish the thought.
They'll be no more floods.
And food won't run short .
All the bad folk be caught.
******* with silly string.
Carried away by a roc on the wing.
To a land where the bees made loads of honey.
There was no need for money and people never got sick.
But then again, without pleasure or pain. I'd realise.
I'd shot myself straight through the foot.
If people weren't ill,
I wouldn't get paid.
I'd have to find another trade.
Don't know what.

Mr McCormick whacked her with his stick.
His nurse that was.
Didn't want to be bothered.

A political persuasion.
Frustration aggression maybe the theory.

Mrs Brady,
A lovely old lady.
Elderly but beautiful as she recanted tales of how she reported how she cavorted  and partied  when younger.
Such relentless hunger.
With aged joints, she still wants to dance.
Find herself a little romance.
A bit of a rumble,
Potential to tumble.
She lives in a world where all's risk assessed.

Mr Jones,
An ******* of bones.
He gave up on all of his food.
He knew what he wanted.
Family all tried to persuade him to eat.
He wanted to meet the old boy upstairs.
Greet the guy at them pearly gates.
Sipped only from an occasional caring cup.

How do I write a love song,
When I look into dark eyes,
Eyes filled with sorrow's marks,
When I look into those eyes,
Missing fire's sparks,

How can we dance a tango,
When we're dancing all alone,
How can we have a party,
When we're always on our own,
How can I hold you,
When we're so far apart,

How can we do darkness,
When I'm pure and truly light,
Darkness I paint better,When I'm miserable as sin,
Darkness you paint wonderfully,
It's running through your skin

Superficial bubbles,
Fizz of pink champagne,
Punctured with a safety pin,
Time to trip and skip,
To sit in long grass,
Dreaming for hours,
Courted, clouds unreachable,
Seen the stars,
Stretched up reached  them,
To feed them to your eyes,
To make you smile again!

HAZY MORNING RELECTION
Olivia Kent Aug 2014
The sun rises every morning,
Sometimes,
I think,
it's role is just to cheese me off.
As from behind it's hazy autumnal sky,
with falling mist,
It wakes me early,
before the **** begins to crow,
always beats my alarm clock at letting me know.
The time has come once again to move on,
to face a newborn week,

One day,
I shall not awaken to the light of the morning sun,
not just yet however,
I shall be drenched in the realms of once just passed lost breaths,
And internally to myself I shall smile,
In the belief that I shall not die in the minds of my mattering ones,
the nattering ones.
Who matter so much,
in the past tense of emotions immense,
of sons,
grandsons and daughters,
of maybe one day having grand-daughters,
and brothers long lost.

At the setting of the sun today,
I will reflect,
as evening folds around me,
on marriage and families and sisters -in -law,
I'll take a deep breath,
smile,
so much,
at the peace that was drawn from a wedding hat box.

Her shape was perfect.
One all the other woman wanted.
Some were rather jealous of her body beautiful.
Rather inflexible.
Hair golden hair was made of nylon.
Stiff, brittle and unbrushable, but never out of place.
She never washed or had a bath, her make up hung in perfect place.

He banged on the door.
He spoke to me with gentle tongue.
All dressed up in his Sunday best suit.
Looked so smart, he left me mute.
He held out to me a fetching hand.
Could I really resist temptations demand.
I invited him in.
I made him sweet tea.
However did he hear about me.
I went to my room and put on a frock.
A pretty floral number.
I thought I rocked.
Together we left the realm of my house.
Outside of my castle, became such a mouse.
He led me tenderly by the hand to the house of God just over the road.
I thought.
What have I to lose, the hymn writers present such powerful muse.
I sat and I listened to the words of the bible.
Made a little sense, but I'm a rebel.
My God is my word,  and I'm sure God don't mind.
After a nice cup of tea the visit was done.
He was gone.
Maybe en-route to my own kingdom come.
I never saw him again.
An atheist I remain.
But I so love the verse of my favourite hymns.

Welcome to Aleppo
The land of hell on earth.
Where children take their first breath
And pass on date of birth.
Families proud who long for strength in sorrowful defiance.
Beaten back by mortal coils.
They rise, they fall.
They sail on in ignorance of what each new day may hold.
Still they toil.
Strive to survive.
Try not to fail miserably
From day to day.
As children play.
In piles of dust where strength of what was shelter, incredibly be bust.
The time is now to save their souls,
Live long enough to reach their goals.
Their stars are burning out.

She is the breeze that enters your head.

Stopping death in it's tracks.

She is the heart that beats.
Sometimes advocates retreat.

She is the honour in written words.
She is the dignity on the wings of sweet birds.

She is the artery the pumps you away.
She is the tide that you ride.
She keeps your beautiful body alive.

She is the white water raft.
Crashing and bashing you.
Leaving you stranded on perilous rocks.

She is the one that plays with your brain.
She is the provocateur of deepest pain.
All of it.
Each and every little fragment.
Smashed as memories mirror shards.
So now do you know who she is?

The River's Dead!
Olivia Kent Aug 2013
Looking down at mudflat river,
Remnants of life,
Where the water's running low,
Imagining looking at the once white weir of dizziness, now dry,
Hell on earth,
Where did it go,
To some the touch of summer sun brings intense, immense delight,
But for now, the river's teeming life,
Once abundant sits redundant,
Desperation shown in it's desperate sorrow without tears,
Two last fish flounder gasping for fresh water's tender kiss,

Summer sun brings treasure as leisure times are cherished lazing on the grassy banks,
With the one who fills my hearts desire,
While glory skies are filled with fire,
As we loll on the bank, soaking up her solar rays on scorching red hot July days,
Much disregard for essence of life itself!

Pain
Olivia Kent May 2014
The pain,
do you know it?
where your stomach's turning somersaults,
don't tell me you don't know it,
that feeling,
where snakes inhabit your stomach,
they're wriggling and reeling,
Bad dreams have pursued you,
into the shadows,
where pain once lived,
indignantly.
And from the other side you storm,
more confidence,
feeling strong!

GOODNIGHT
Olivia Kent Nov 2016
The trees fight the whistling wind, strength is their resilience.
The windows scratched by wild man who dances in my garden.
Naked fingers,
Realms of weather.
The rain is lashing all that's bare.
Tossed and turned without a care.
The cold hath teeth no man can see.
The ebony of darkest shade it keeps it's prisoners trapped inside.
Whilst in the house the sneezes freed.
Mother moon is hiding fast behind her clouds, those ones be blast.
Past midnight.
Morning lost, out of sight.
Frightful Saturday night.

PRETTY ART
Olivia Kent Oct 2014
PRETTY ART
A pretty beast, a flaming heart.
Fires ignition, all for art.
Strands of ribbons.
Tangled up intrinsically.
In elastic,
Beauty bound.
From depths within the psychic hold.
Cold as snow drops.
They're kissing the rain.
Warm as ribbons, a little frayed.
Summer for winter winds,
Come along pray let us trade.
Beat winters marching.
His tyrant, his tirade.
Sharp and ****.
Poetic art.
Barter with him for lost summers bliss.

AGEING
Olivia Kent Feb 2015
Oh for reckless dreams of walking back to childhood.
Much too late, but much too soon.
Of walking over sandy shores.
Hand in hand with the love of one's life.
Once upon a life time ago, was  someone's pretty little wife.
Too soon became trouble and strife.
Time went and caught her up.
Not quite enough to be ready to die.
The ****** get wet  and the passion has passed.
Knicker elastic crawls over her waist.
Thrillers becoming passion killers.
And still we giggle like teenagers, a little less wriggling about.
Her tights dangle down as if there's no tomorrow.
Ageing bought nothing but truth and sorrow.
But it's not  going to  get me
I just won't let it.
Even tho' this stubborn old goat is a nanny.

DARK ARROWS
Olivia Kent Oct 2015
You are an insult.
Insulting intelligence.
Ridiculing life itself.
An excuse.
Example of intrigue.
Enigmatic monkey puzzle.
Appearance of a mighty tree.

A coiled spring waiting for summer.
Christmas walking forwards towards the end of year.
Afraid of tomorrow, despite it never coming.
Sunshine beats at lunchtime, covering a chill.
A chill that cowers quietly,behind the bedroom door.
Arrows flying everywhere.
Yet no one knows the score.

ELDERLY CARE.....LOL
Olivia Kent Jan 2015
A captured soul.
Invisible to the naked eye.
Love enchants and ensnares.
That's why we die.
Just an image in a bigger picture.
Main feature is the scheme of life.
We sit  metaphorically naked in corners.
Stealing feelings from those who passed.
We **** the life force from the chill.
The chill of death.
Cries only for a perfect thrill.
But I'm not dying yet.
Totally f**king refuse.
Wishing I was younger,
A hankering.
A hunger.

BEDLAM!
Olivia Kent Nov 2015
Bedlam is empty.
Silence reigns, where banshees wailed.
Heaviness lifted.
Darkness enlightened.
Now, young evacuated by the calling of the clubs.
Consumption of alcohol
Flying high on crazy drugs.
Midnight comes.
The police arrive.
Streets of bedlam re-occupied.
Handcuffs.
Noisy cells.
Clubbers, feeling not so well.
Tomorrow heads all filled with fluff.
Silly sods.
Feeling rough!

QUALITIES
Olivia Kent Mar 2016
You are mine and I am yours.
Captured in such powerful jaws.
We thrive as we  strive to survive.
Upon each other.
Wishes made of dandelion down.
You always smile.
I always frown.
The clown of the class and the silly lass.
We catch snowflakes made of mistakes.
That melt on touching hands so warm.
Do you love me?
Of that I'm not sure.
For I am the pauper outside of the door.
I don't want you really.
I never did.

QUALITIES
Olivia Kent Apr 2015
Human respect and dignity.
Hung upon the world wide trees.
Love and compassion, together bathe in warm seas.
Taking sides with flowing tides.
Hope, well she's climbing mountains.
Reaching for the skies.
The birds are spreading only truth.
Messages to all the youth.
Humanity is really cool.
Man as race indigenous, entirety of planet Earth.
Themselves, nothing, but stupid fools.
Upon the planet of their birth.

Remain Sane!
Olivia Kent Nov 2013
Pick it up.
Lose it not.
Caring, not wrapped in a tissue.
Throw it not down the sewer.
Sew it up and fix it.
Going down inept response.

Lose not his head.
For he's not dead.
Wanting nothing.
Needing none.
Once trapped in web already spun.
As a discarded tissue forgiven.
She'll miss you.
But he's already gone.
Don't cry ask not why.
She just cares.
The girl with the Auburn Hair!

MOON PART TWO
Olivia Kent Sep 2015
My shadow seems to follow me, into the nether world, tween sleep and wake, rather wrecked, being tired does that to me.
And as I fight to stay alert my eyelids hurt, they struggle to defeat this night with perfect sprite.
A living flame.
Keen and burning.
Eyes are yearning for the sight and mind of moody moon tonight.
Keen in spirit, not in mind,as night-time colonises my brain.
Staying alert but, a bitter pain, for which no pills can take this ill.
Doubt I'll ever see it again.
My mortal endeavour, one in a million, to see Diana blaze in vermilion.
A gorgeous dress I'm sure she'll sport.
Witnessed only, should I not be caught.
In realms of sleep or I shall weep, for missing the event of the lunatic season.
Without a **** good reason.

OFF TO SCHOOL
Olivia Kent Feb 2016
Morning sky is filled with spring.
Buzzing like an early bee.
Blossoms are attractive.
Calling them.
A chill within.
A chill without.
I hear in heart,
I hear in ears, the children shout.
The joy of chirping voices.
As they buzz to school.
So noisy they are.
As mummy calls them to the car.
The baby cries.
Into the seat.
Settles down and off to sleep.
Heigh-**, heigh-**,
And it's off to school they go.
