I currently live in Glasgow but was born and grew up in Belfast, before leaving in 2006. In high school, I studied English Literature and became particularly intrigued by the works of Seamus Heaney and Brian Friel. Since then, I've attempted to carve out my own style and persist in writing with a field I'm passionate about.

Organ grinder by Dan Wray

The monkey does his thing, performing
away for the audience who spectate
this little affair. His chief executive
stands in the shoadows, directing all
that goes on; with authority and directness.

One can't change little mannerisms or
habits of an authoritive measure when
many are influenced either for better
or for worswe, albeit silently. Still, the
monkey is keen to challenge and conquer.

All the organ grinder does is vocally
direct and dictate, until one day, his
apprentice decides to change the game's pace;
for the real boss is revealed upon his
departure and lack of independent status....
