Introduction

My name’s Tommy, some know me as Matt.

I have written for the last decade

Through good and bad, through this and that.

Many types of rhymes, through all different times

for all different reasons, for each and every crime.

These rhymes will tell a story

of a mind which can be strange.

All different genres, there’s a wide-range.

Now I’m ready to let people

know the truth about me,

the truth of these thoughts

I need to break free.

Take your time to acknowledge

what I have to say,

and one more thing . . .

. . . HAVE A NICE DAY!!

Visually Correct

Camera Cat,

Stop and stare,

Sharing the secrets

That you share.

The things that you think,

What way will you wink?

What lingers your mind?

What truth will you find?

As you sit and don’t mind

How angry or kind

You mind will rewind.

Now how do you feel?

By learning what’s real?

Are you getting a deal

With your happy meal?

These brainwaves will visualize

What you’re learning to realize

As your thought plan will pace,

Now that look on your face

As you see in your head

Those images you dread.

Your brain cells will shred

Those things that you’ve said

To yourself whilst alone

That night in your home

With your telephone.

Are you reading these lines?

What truth will you find?

You now see what I got,

Like it or not.

Do you feel the same?

What is this game?

Allow me to explain

As you look out to the rain

And up to the moon,

You will get there soon,

Whilst hearing that tune

Twelve hours after noon.

I hear you there

As if you don’t care,

What will this truth share?

As you look through your eyes

And to your surprise,

There aren’t any more lies

So don’t run
