    And further / That love / Has me marked / Has me tattooed And naked / For life

    A writen piece for a challenge in the Gay Sexuality group. This written work goes with Gordon Merrick Justice’s image which was inspired by it. The next stage in this group’s challenge is for me to create a visual piece to go with some of his writing.

    I have…held a decapitated human head in my hands, sliced neatly in half, and marvelled at the astounding beauty contained within.

    I wrote this piece for a zine in the US. The aim was to write your life story in only a few hundred words, and it was surprising for me to see which of my experiences flowed out of my pen.

  • I am not an Animal
    by Robert Knapman

    I just love the way she stares me down / Like she wants / My blood Thick / On toast

    Edit…thanks also to all those who I see have viewed and read this poem. Cheers. Nice to have visiters ,) A poem that just evolved today – the way poetry sometimes does. Somehow intuitively, somehow from somewhere that must belong to me. Bits of me. It uses words and combinations of words that have come together over months I think, and which I’ve saved (as bits), and then constructed / reconstructed and grown. This poem has become an open interpretation of what stops, what gets in the way and what, maybe, should never have been. This is also a distraction from study :) Peace.
