It is only easier to sleep with your demons rather than fight them if you can prove you know them in the first place. I'm not struggling to breathe I'm just rewilding my lungs. This isn't praying its reclaiming, this isn't searching for this is hiding from. The only problem with being a follower of the gospel of Saint Knives is making sure you are not so sharp you cut yourself. A year of moments missed because you were too busy finding out how to live, is seldom an excuse, but you can pray if you really believe you will change.

Sam J Grudgings is a poet perpetually on the edge of collapse, he grew up in the punk scene and found Poetry entirely by accident but finds it's much more comfortable here. He can be found in his home City of Bristol or meandering up and down the UK shouting things at audiences and trying to disprove gravity amongst other things
