Crap Poem 48 – Persistence

Welcome back everyone. Here is my 48th Crap Poem in my series as part of the COPE Campaign. It’s been a long week, and unfortunately not a particularly good one either. My difficulty gaining NHS interventions continues, and making contact has become so stressful and unwelcome that I’ve decided to write a poem about it.Continue reading “Crap Poem 48 – Persistence”

Crap poem 47 – Heat

Hello everyone! Welcome to another Crap Poem as part of my COPE campaign. This poem is one that will be relatable for so many people, including us. Unpleasant to read and write, the fact is many of us are truly struggling, and it’s a serious matter that needs attention before the challenges become irreversible. MyContinue reading “Crap poem 47 – Heat”

Crap poem 46 – The Gauntlet

Hello everyone, and welcome to the bloody 46th edition of my Crap Poems project. I can’t believe I’ve written so many of these things. As some of you may have seen in previous years, this time of year is tricky for me. I’m not sure if it’s helpful or worse, but the death anniversaries ofContinue reading “Crap poem 46 – The Gauntlet”

Crap poem 45 – Courageous

Welcome to the 45th edition of Crap Poems. This time my poem focuses on being invaded by the dreaded imposter when you’re just trying to believe you’re good at something. I’m so proud to have won two awards for my campaigning in mental health, but when I found out about it a couple of weeksContinue reading “Crap poem 45 – Courageous”

Crap poem 43 – A mothers cycle

Hello again everyone, and welcome to another crap poem. This little ode is dedicated to the sleeplessness I experience every single day. It’s a type of insomnia that most people probably never get to experience, and they should be glad. Existing on 2 hours sleep almost every day plays havoc with every system in yourContinue reading “Crap poem 43 – A mothers cycle”

Crap poem 42 – This Country

Good morning and thank you for visiting to read my 42nd crap poem. I apologise, but I’ve gone a bit political this time, after my anger started increasing watching some of the news events and political reactions (or lack thereof) to assist in fixing it all. Things aren’t great at home, and I imagine manyContinue reading “Crap poem 42 – This Country”

Crap poem 41 – Falling

Good morning. How are you today? Thank you for visiting again. No doubt you are here for yet another badly accomplished poem! Well, rest assured, I have lots more to share with you, including this one. ‘Falling’ is a bit of a piss take about positive quotes in general. I love creating mental health artContinue reading “Crap poem 41 – Falling”

Crap poem 40 – Bills

Hello again, and this time welcome to a new crap poem. This poem is dedicated to my thoughts on money or, more specifically, credit. The finance crisis is hitting everyone so hard, and I think the temptation to take out credit just to get by is growing every day. This poem covers the mess ourContinue reading “Crap poem 40 – Bills”

Crap poem 39 – Ableode

Hey everyone! Welcome to another poem in my series of Crap Poems. Today I wanted to write something about the frustration I feel when my lack of ability creates anything negative. Whether it’s my own angry internal thoughts, ignorant comments from others, problems doing regular stuff or just plain old exclusion, it’s just infuriating. AsContinue reading “Crap poem 39 – Ableode”
