Pink friend

“Friends of many colours” Gun Roswell

Pink friend


Sometimes friends come in many shapesSometimes even their colours may vary
Sometimes you may be lucky to have a double set
Sometimes you’ll end up with just one really good friend 

But, never you mind, just try always to be kind And never, ever stop trying
Be open and inviting in the world so wide
And who knows where those friends you’ll find 

Peephole

“Life through a peephole” Gun Roswell 

Peephole

Through the tiny window
I watch the outside world
As the soft clouds by flow
And I wish onto them to be hurled
To fly like the birds in the skies
Or take a ride on a horse divine
To for it all and then fall
Fast asleep and dream for more

But it’s not for me
For you see 

I am the watcher
Behind the scenes
I am the onlooker
Never the participant 
I am the ever loner
When the others live
I am the one keeps the record
While the others sleep
I am alway here
Behind the peephole
Watching, learning
Sometimes even yearning
Go, be a part of it all
But as time for me has stalled
As I am the one
The caretaker of it all 

Life is a beach 


“Life on the beach” Gun Roswell

Life is a beach 

When thinking that life is a soft and sandy beach
And you’ll do your damnedest to it early on reach 

Then once you get there, to relax and take a seat
You’ll realise, that staying forever might the perfect image bleach 

So, for now, let’s just make a holiday of it
Forget for a while all that daily shit 

Enjoy the ever fading moments of the promised paradise
Before leaving only to return again, at lest that’s the advice 

And after the thoughts are settled
And you have neatly nestled Just dive into the inviting cool blue waters 
And frolic around there pretending you’re a sea otter 

Left hanging 

“A top of the world ma!?” Gun Roswell

Left hanging 

I was put here on total display Much to my own undesire and dismay
Nobody bothered to ask me if I wanted to stay 

So here I just hang until the end of the day 

I am not discarded nor broken Nor am I anyone’s special token
But I surely used to be for spoken 

Dunno no, if that applies anymore, just hoping 

So some one please come and get me
You can ride me even to the sea
My pedals and saddle are still complete
So hope on and let me drive you easily 

I am not a doll’s head 

“I am not a crook’s head” Futurama 

I am not a doll’s head 

I may be plastic
Even quite, elastic
And that itself is absolutely fantastic
My head can spin at three hundred and sixty
And my face too is quite nifty
My age can be one or even fifty
You can play with me
Braid my hair ever so neatly
Even paint my face discreetly 

But there is one thing you must understand
As here, without any feet I still take my stand
Even would wave them in the air if i had any hands 

But none of that I now can 

Still, one last thought to share:
I, am not, a fucking doll’s head! 

Arachnid

“Creepy crawlers about” Gun Roswell

Arachnid 

Laying about, in the scorching sun
Just to piss you off and for my personal fun 

My four legs spread, across the sun bed
I am here to stay, much to your dismay 

A real ugly creepy crawly you might think
But before into despair you totally sink 

Let me tell you one simple thing
I have as much right to do my own creepy thing
As you have tanning your fat shiny skin
So let’s both just simply agree 

That neither of us will pay any dues or fees as we stay here for free
Then letting each other to be just here 

For I am sure there is enough room for both of us on this cool blue sphere
No harm no fowl no disagreements 

And when the time is up and sun has set
Let’s ignore each other and go our separate ways instead 

All in one shot 


It’s a quick tour today” Gun Roswell

All in one shot 

When travelling on a tightly scheduled course
And time is a valuable and limited resource 

Then spotting something so good as a prelude
Making you think that you’ll be able make it after all on this latitude 

As always on a trip like this
I am running around like a crazy git
Looking for all and everything Trying to catch at least one special thing 

But as it always turns out to be 

There is so much more to see Than any given time frame will allow
Whether the cool car or neighbours cow 

What kind luck would it take If i could it all on just on single shot make
But then what would i do with all the space
On the memory card I especially bought to capture all from this place?! 

Airport hustle 

“Doing the airport hustle”Gun Roswell

Airport hustle 

A very long and exhausting trip ahead
Wishing you had stayed home instead
Sitting at the airport cafeteria sipping coffee
Wishing this time for something stronger in front of me

But alas nothing of that nature is served in this establishment Trying hard to figure out away from this torment 

Then a small group of people pass me by In what looks like a conga line
First reaction is to think they are really high But as the ask to join with a big smile 

Who am i some fun to deny? 

So, here I am doing the airport hustle And forgotten is all the other hassle! 

Waters Edge 

“Water is refreshing, either drink or shower in it!” Gun Roswell

Waters Edge 


You can clearly hear the roar

From the simple water fall

Wherefrom the fresh water pours

Dip in your toe

Feel the tickling foam

Thinking, to the beach roam 

The idea of cooling water

All over your heated body

Quickly, on the street storming 


The ocean beckons

When the dawn reckons

Finding your place, in mere seconds

Sandy shores, for the eyes sore 

The waters, hitting the rocks, soar

All you need is a boat with oars

Spend a day or a short while

The scenery is sure to make you smile

And only thing wasted is time


Waves washing to the shore 

Like in some ancient lore

Watching, feeling, this feeling

Nothing to be bought from a store

Woody (Haiku)

“A bike of wood?”But, can you peddle it?” Gun Roswell

Woody (Haiku)

City bike street side stands

Made for rental and out of wood

Ride it fast and slow
