315 Light-ish: Extant

I am breathing.  A 
human being, being.  For 
this joy I endure. 

314 Neutral-ish: Robbery

Doubtless, Cameron's 
class war on human rights will 
gain support from plebs. 

313 Dark-ish: Treachery

Dad's shout-attacks were 
betrayals of trust.  They brought 
crisis in their wake.

312 Light-ish: Unemployment

My cash is nearly 
gone.  Time to get some more. 
Perhaps a bank job! 

311 Neutral-ish: Cull

The third horseman brings
plague.  Weaponised E.coli?  
Vaccine tags follow.  

310 Dark-ish: At Dad's Dentist's,,, (Five years old.)

Beautiful red bar:
Silent, glowing, liar.  You 
burned me, and I SCREAMED!

309 Light-ish: Joy

August's orange sun 
sets.  The air cools.  I pedal,
glad at the beauty. 

308 Neutral-ish: Decline

Justice and freedom?  
Where, Britain?  It feels like a
failed democracy?   

307 Dark-ish: Liberation!

Conversationless,
non-social weekend, again.
Dad free, but empty.

306 Light-ish: Lucky Targets

A blur panics birds 
in the willow.  Noise draws cats,
but the hawk's hunt failed. 

305 Neutral-ish: Think

The Media is 
steering our boredom again.  
This time it's exams.

304 Dark-ish: Sitting Ducks

Behind closed doors, 
helpless kids absorb Dad's rage.  
Endless flashbacks form.

303 Light-ish: Homecoming

Meeow!  Scratchy scramble. 
In via the window.  Food, then 
perhaps a greeting. 

302 Neutral-ish: Elitist Violence

Tories talk too tough:
Hard on rioters, tax cut 
for thieving bankers.   

301 Dark-ish: Disabled

Dad made dread, self-doubt. 
Life chances slipped by, decades 
of thought-stunting angst.

300 Light-ish: Bummer!

For conflagration, 
the second horseman will ride 
West on an Arab

299 Neutral-ish: Lovelessness

Nasty rioters!  
Attack them: shoot; hit; lock down!  
Go draconian! 

298 Dark-ish: Conforming

Clarinet screeching,
but Dad didn't tantrum, as with
my quiet hi-fi!

297 Light-ish: Financial Violence

Clipperty clop, the 
first horseman was a banker.   
Nay, a highwayman! 

296 Neutral-ish: Riotous Motive

British people fear, 
want revenge.  Trade your freedom
for a safer state? 

295 Dark-ish: Self-Destruction

Shout-attacks auto 
replay.  Preying on ego, 
until it is dead.
