Nine thirty PM
Playing Oscar Peterson
In empty office

2006-08-01T21:20:00.000+08:00

Deadlines overhead
Doom is surely imminent
So we wait, helpless

2006-07-31T21:18:00.000+08:00

Cruel existence!
Thousands of dollars in games
With no time to play.

2006-07-30T21:15:00.000+08:00

Anxiously waiting
Tracking a parcel online
From Hong Kong to me

2006-07-29T21:18:00.000+08:00

hello arab street
you are not so exciting
second time around

2006-07-28T11:09:00.000+08:00

Shady bank dealings
China Agricultural??
Godspeed, credit card!

2006-07-26T13:24:00.000+08:00

Another two weeks
Gone and lost to the cash grind
Signs of a crashed mind

2006-07-26T11:15:00.000+08:00

Eight years, engineer
Seeing glasses at dinner
Imagining caps!

2006-07-11T23:41:00.000+08:00

Friend, you are a fool!
When one is sick, one leaves work
And lies still in bed!

2006-07-10T23:40:00.000+08:00

With just an email
I see the weekend vanish
Disintegrated!

2006-07-09T23:37:00.000+08:00

For a day you feed
Entertain and amuse me
And then fall asleep

2006-07-08T23:27:00.000+08:00

Weekend for myself
I don't spare a thought on work -
The way it should be

~

Returned from afar,
Your face replies my questions.
What more need be said?

2006-07-07T23:25:00.000+08:00

A new home online
Massively wide roads to roam!
Storeroom space for junk!

2006-07-06T00:14:00.000+08:00

2 pints at lunchtime
i wonder how you spent yours
what good, solitude

2006-07-05T00:13:00.000+08:00

the promised work comes
and brings fantastic nightmares
hunted by the mob!

2006-07-04T00:12:00.000+08:00

post-work beer craving
already it threatens me
this quiet tuesday

2006-07-03T16:00:00.000+08:00

Cuban film beer buzz
Women with their long lashes
Castro with his beard

2006-07-02T15:57:00.000+08:00

Superman Returns
Is so hard to come down from
Walking aimlessly

2006-07-01T15:54:00.000+08:00

Portugal, England
I sit at a long white bench
Eating cashew nuts

2006-06-30T15:48:00.000+08:00

deep purple pantone
says we are compatible
i ate lunch alone

2006-06-29T15:46:00.000+08:00

mid-week sushi binge
and for dinner only beer
sleep only to wake

2006-06-28T15:45:00.000+08:00

crispy wonton skins
on a bed of dry noodles
sublime symphony

2006-06-27T11:37:00.000+08:00

watching brazil play
like a million dollar team
to make me spare change

2006-06-26T11:30:00.000+08:00

found a new cafe
the food is rather sublime
for the price, i mean

2006-06-25T11:28:00.000+08:00

My webserver down
Unable to publish files
Lonely lost at sea!

2006-06-24T10:59:00.000+08:00

When I lie in bed
I get more work done thinking
Than I do at work

2006-06-23T10:55:00.000+08:00

Feel like Burger King
So I eat with coupons
Then a free movie

2006-06-22T21:41:00.000+08:00

First time I saw you
In a whole day so close by
You looked great smoking

2006-06-21T21:32:00.000+08:00

Ordering chicken
White or roast? And how much rice?
I don't understand!?

2006-06-20T21:30:00.000+08:00

With not much to do
And few people to speak to
I drink black coffee

2006-06-19T21:29:00.000+08:00

The morning sunrise
Travels across my new desk
Quite auspiciously

2006-06-18T19:12:00.000+08:00

A fading summer
That old back to school feeling
Last peaceful Sunday

2006-06-17T19:11:00.000+08:00

seize time by the tail!
swing it around and fling it!
jump into a cab!

2006-06-16T23:08:00.000+08:00

The last Brewerkz lunch
The thought of drinking outweighs
Actually drinking

2006-06-15T23:05:00.000+08:00

under a walled sky
missing the live football match
you people are weird!

2006-06-14T15:17:00.000+08:00

goodbye to old desks
hairstyles and annoyances
goodbye to fever!

2006-06-13T14:38:00.000+08:00

Plans ruined by sleep!
Never hear a dog say that,
Plans ruined by sleep...

2006-06-12T14:13:00.000+08:00

sick the morning comes
possibilities pass by
soon it is evening

2006-06-11T14:03:00.000+08:00

sick the hours go
lying under the veiled moon
neverending time

2006-06-10T14:02:00.000+08:00

sick with the fever
sinking like a stone in bed
burning and aching

2006-06-09T14:26:00.000+08:00

missing my last day
also missing my girlfriend
lost gone wandering

2006-06-08T14:23:00.000+08:00

drank some bad water
found a tickle in my throat
woke with a fever

2006-06-07T14:22:00.000+08:00

warm night without breeze
the sound of people will push
where will we be pulled?

2006-06-06T14:19:00.000+08:00

how slowly time moves
a glacier invisible
between me and peace

2006-06-05T14:07:00.000+08:00

living without pause
only moving forwards now
no cause for regret

2006-06-05T00:20:00.000+08:00

Honest businessman
Amongst those who overquote
I could buy some more

2006-06-04T00:17:00.000+08:00

Money for coffee
For shiny buttons and toys
I need more money!

2006-06-03T00:19:00.000+08:00

Eight hundred dollars
Spent purely without basis
Just to fill the void

2006-06-02T13:04:00.000+08:00

Restless night of sleep
Colored by a scent that changed
After a few beers

2006-06-01T13:01:00.000+08:00

Desperate spending thoughts
And shipping rearrangements
Our 4th week apart

2006-05-31T23:33:00.000+08:00

Money leaves my hands
To be replaced by very
Ridiculous things

2006-05-30T23:29:00.000+08:00

The first "Knight of Jugs"
Cheap beers in faint streetlight glow
Slumming, on Orchard?

2006-05-29T23:28:00.000+08:00

Ten days left to go
One must be thankful for work
That involves little

2006-05-28T23:25:00.000+08:00

An unknown number
Who would have thought it was you
From so far away

2006-05-27T23:22:00.000+08:00

free bottles of cab!
wine cannot silence the pain
from the bald MC

2006-05-26T16:14:00.000+08:00

brett ratner will pay
but i am all forgiveness
on a cool, nice night

2006-05-25T16:05:00.000+08:00

with ennui so strong
what does it matter who wins
'merican idol

2006-05-24T15:34:00.000+08:00

waiting for beer time
how slowly the sun rises
how quickly it sets

2006-05-23T15:04:00.000+08:00

mutton-chopped singer
you do a good jack johnson
you and fruit auntie

2006-05-22T16:58:00.000+08:00

rain drenches the dogs,
old unfortunates outside.
bring it down, fucker!

2006-05-21T22:45:00.000+08:00

without cash on hand
a friend has to cover me
like passing seasons

2006-05-20T22:13:00.000+08:00

fallen out of sky
painted with golden brushes
roasted for hours

2006-05-19T21:52:00.000+08:00

what is to be done
in their long and fragrant ways
of walking away

2006-05-18T22:01:00.000+08:00

signed with borrowed pen
from frying pan to fire
god, bring the fire!

2006-05-17T21:56:00.000+08:00

the prison walls shake
threaten insignificance
mere matter of time

2006-05-16T15:55:00.000+08:00

there in the far reach
is a hand i cannot hold
past many bridges

2006-05-15T15:50:00.000+08:00

across continents
and shifting weather planes
across we all know

2006-05-14T16:50:00.000+08:00

Watching Blaine struggle
I know that hopeless feeling
End so out of reach

2006-05-13T16:47:00.000+08:00

Chips and fish nuggets?!
A one-man acoustic band,
And a hidden pub.

2006-05-12T16:46:00.000+08:00

Tomb Raider Legend
Not a bad way to pass time
EIGHT HOURS of time

2006-05-11T16:45:00.000+08:00

Eastern Standard Time
I anticipate small things
Tiring out my mind

2006-05-10T17:30:00.000+08:00

Live press conference
The last of 9th's surprises
Oh my god, it's Wii

2006-05-09T16:15:00.000+08:00

sixty days to go.
how will i handle the first?
autopilot: on!

2006-05-08T16:13:00.000+08:00

no point getting mad
the readiness is all, eh?
i'll miss my sparrow

2006-05-07T16:12:00.000+08:00

it begins to sink
the hours go faster now
running out of sight

2006-05-06T16:10:00.000+08:00

it's election day
i'm not voting but involved
some say we all are

2006-05-05T16:01:00.000+08:00

green caterpillar
asparagus for a tail
ikura for eyes

2006-05-04T16:20:00.000+08:00

do i like the sun
i'm asked but cannot answer
sometimes i guess yes

2006-05-03T16:19:00.000+08:00

man squeezes through aisle
mock consternation on face
this gives me great joy

2006-05-02T16:18:00.000+08:00

first day back
i resign with the word
five weeks will go slow

2006-05-01T11:31:00.000+08:00

Sixteen months today
We go back to the sixties
And watch a bad film.

2006-04-30T11:30:00.000+08:00

Unexpectedly
I am in your room sleeping
How long has it been?

2006-04-29T11:26:00.000+08:00

Crab cakes and chili
Under a giant moosehead
Mmmmmmmmm.

2006-04-28T11:24:00.000+08:00

Navy DS Lite
Shining like a night mirror
What else cuts through glare?

2006-04-27T11:22:00.000+08:00

Day gone in a flash
A flash in the pan? Haha!
D*rek Littlewood.

2006-04-26T11:20:00.000+08:00

Long meeting drag
Now every Wednesday morning
Despair or resign!

2006-04-25T11:34:00.000+08:00

Young writer on bus
Look after your appearance
Poetry comes second!

2006-04-24T11:33:00.000+08:00

Cherry blossom sprig
Oh how far you have fallen
From branch to Kit-Kat

2006-04-23T12:41:00.000+08:00

On a cloudy day
Scouring a dense marketplace
For Sennheiser 'phones

2006-04-22T00:00:00.000+08:00

I am twenty six
The wind moves through my black hair
Sunlight through my skin

2006-04-21T22:01:00.000+08:00

A crowd of people
Not unlike a flower bed
Color lines are drawn

2006-04-20T22:00:00.000+08:00

No night is wasted
All time falls short of love's depth
We take what we can

2006-04-19T17:59:00.000+08:00

Frustration creeping
It's hard to name a reason
Three strikes, then I'm out

2006-04-18T16:09:00.000+08:00

Russian or Frenchman?
Salesman or coffee lover?
Common English ground.

2006-04-17T16:08:00.000+08:00

In cold drunk darkness
An unexpected surprise
Best night's sleep all month

2006-04-16T16:05:00.000+08:00

Treacherous journey
Little barbs by the wayside
Of my Unadon

2006-04-15T21:47:00.000+08:00

Big pizza slices
Followed by a four hour nap
Makes for a good day

2006-04-14T21:39:00.000+08:00

Can't get to work
Too many distractions about
Not all of them good

2006-04-13T21:35:00.000+08:00

Last day of the week
On account of Good Friday
Thank god for Jesus

2006-04-12T21:34:00.000+08:00

Two meetings today
The first, trying and a bore
The second was worse
