Kensington and Chelsea

Sleep well tonight

With your burning

Log fire

Scurrying and searching,

For that 12 year old wine

A steaming shower

Cooled with luxury cosmetics,

Burning your botox lips

Sleep well tonight,

Holding on to those

Curled up in fresh satin sheets

And what troubles you?

You don’t want the poor

Living in a block of flats next door.

Well, now you don’t have to worry about that anymore

David R Mellor

Born 1964, (Liverpool, England) difficult birth, didn’t find my voice until my youth. Years of thinking I was nobody and treated as such. However, hit the paper papering over the scars. Found understanding and belief through words. I have been published and performed widely from the BBC, The Tate, galleries and pubs and everything in between.

My poems are autobiographical, others topical and several my take on life. Hope you enjoy reading as much as I have enjoyed writing. Please feel free to share your thoughts on links below.
