Post Go Live Blues

The elation has gone
and the toll
of all those hours
of unpaid overtime
has come home
to roost

Why do this
I ask?
Because I love
working
is the reply
A passion for ones
work
involves
the lonely hours
with results
So satisfying

Amazon Buyers be aware of this Scam

It hurts!! I have been scammed and lost £346 through a scammer operating through the Amazon.co.uk site.

If you see this guy selling anything don't buy it!!

The moment money transer is mentioned, leave well alone.

The email addresses that I have corresponded though are:

Alexander Groom (oscar-dehn@hotmail.com)
orchard.order@googlemail.com

Why would any trustworty retailer have hotmail & gmail addresses? They are coming across as legit UK based companies with corresponding company websites.

Again - leave well well alone - pure scammers.

What really annoys me is that Amazon was warned about this scammer in early December according to a forum on their site and still he appears. I got scammed but they should have closed this guy out in early December.

So if it can happen to an old hand like me it can happen to anyone.

Thanks

the Snow 2009

In 2008 I loved the snow
So white
Silently drifting
Down to
Clothe the mediocrity
And grayness
Of the sad landscape

In 2009
I hate the snow
The central heating
Is on the blink
The hot water is off
And it's as cold
As a polar bears bum

Amidst the Gloom

Amidst the gloom
I found my books
and they led
me to a place
beyond the Clouds
of the ennui
of everyday life.

The Bus Stop

Standing at the Bus Stop
On a Cold Winter's morning
Grey sky streaked with
Post apocalyptic pink

Branches of the trees
Wind like filigrees of
twined skeletons
bare and stark
In the Newcastle
Dawn
