Kelvin Rush Poems

You keep on asking as if we're blessed
There are no answers for us to digest
Man has no insight to the meaning of life
It's futile and full of pain and strife
...

My friend was sectioned last Thursday night
They said he was clinically insane
They pumped him with pills to suppress his fight
Now he can't remember his name
...

Dismissed by time an evolutionary crime
Never seen in this world before
Blinded and sedated destroying all we created
What's the point in going on anymore
...

Queuing all night to buy the latest trainers
Handing over money to total strangers
Working for the boss giving away your time
Boredom and dross for a nickel-and-dime
...

Horrible sickly deadly food
You steal my life you're so crass and crude
The thought of you makes me cringe inside
You'll drive me to madness and suicide
...

Do you rate butter
That one you can't spread
Only me and my wife hate it
Mr Bellamy said
...

Candy California
Never any grief
Body to die for
Perfect teeth
...

Bipolar and me we get on just fine
I know who's the boss and what isn't mine
If I fight I will lose so I quietly accept
All alone in the night nothing here to protect
...

I haven't seen light for many years
I'm in a constant state of delusion
The dark cloud rarely leaves my side
My life is full of torment and confusion
...

Cue the same old music
We've heard a million times
Add a pinch of desperation
Begin the illicit crimes
...

The cold wind blows on another lonely night
My heart implodes desperate for light
Painful memories bitter and sore
Please stop this torture I can't take much more
...

Give me your hand let's get out of this room
I'll show you what goes off in the valley of doom
You might be shocked when you see the despair
Starving children are everywhere
...

Look at them dressed from head to toe
In pantomime costumes putting on a show
Jangling their medals killing grouse
They've just been released from the local nuthouse
...

Bradley Spears was a desperate man
Bradley Spears had a cunning plan
Bradley Spears carried a heavy load
Bradley Spears was about to explode
...

15.

Birds can fly anytime they like
Anyplace anywhere day or night
No future no past no need to know
Happy carefree it's all part of the show
...

My step dad Geoffey has got off the ride
He'll be feeding his tomatoes on the other side
His final years weren't all that good
He was lost and lonely misunderstood
...

One single buttercup
In a concrete wall
Innocent and beautiful
Standing tall
...

Fish on a hook
No struggle no pain
Acceptance is a blessing
We all lose the game
...

It seems my tears carry sadness and pain
All my hopes and fears are too hard to contain
As I sit here quietly on the edge of my bed
I'm consumed with anxiety wishing I was dead
...

Twenty four cans of peaches
Bound for the officers mess
I stole a can it was found under my bed
So reluctantly I had to confess
...

The Meaning Of Life

You keep on asking as if we're blessed
There are no answers for us to digest
Man has no insight to the meaning of life
It's futile and full of pain and strife

Think about anything that comes in your head
Then never forget one day you'll be dead
It's hardly surprising that no one is sane
The drugs and the booze the lies and the pain

The reason for living is not found in a book
It's like having a dream but you never wake up
It can't be explained by sight or sound
It's magnificent and godlike immense and profound

It's short and sweet it's bitter and pure
It offers you thrills but gives you no cure
It's bloody and quaint it's violent and cruel
It pretends to be saint but acts like a fool

It rises in many and renders you weak
It causes such heartache it's coy and discrete
It knows you will suffer before you give in
It's cunning and stunning and determined to win

It shines like an angel it oozes with joy
It's willing and able to kill and destroy
It moves off in silence then strikes like a snake
God help all the ones who lie in its wake

It's confusing and baron and incredibly wise
It's intrusive and Aaron it laughs and it cries
It pretends to be clean when in fact it infects
It's rude and obscene and hard to detect

It always reacts and never forgets
It retains all its strength from the ones it protects
It creates then dictates then destroys all that's good
It debates and dilates and feeds off your blood

It's rigid and torrid corrupt and insane
It thrives on emotion like anger and pain
It lurks like a virus it's patient and calm
It's willing and able with swagger and charm

It comes out of nowhere with fire and gust
It's heartless and cold it's bold and robust
Nothing on earth can stand in its way
It flatters and shatters and batters its prey

So before you ask what's the meaning of life
Just remember my friend we're dumb and so blind
We're specs on this earth of no consequence
We're meaningless parasites an insignificance
