Sea Legs
Avoiding decisions Is a foot in both boats and having wet feet then wet ankles then wet knees and still clinging to the idea that the boats are seaworthy Entirely missing the point Which is You can swim 12/4/22
Discarding Truth
I have a hundred different words And none of them are the right ones I scrumple the thoughts into paper bombs Throw them in the bin Move on Saying “relax, it will come” But certain words can’t come Because they already have And I rejected them They were the truth And the truth was too […]
Roses Lime Marmalade
The smell of toast Wafts like a kind thought Filling the kitchen Hugging me gently, whilst I spread butter and Roses lime marmalade jam My grandfathers favourite Mine as well And never an awful moment that cannot be dispelled Or at least put on hold, just for a minute As filled with toast, butter, lime […]
Ups and Downs

Too beautiful to spoil
I don’t want to poem about heavy things Not on an evening so light as this Where the sky is fine bone china Suffused with coral and fuchsia Pierced by a single jet trail My eyes follow it Up and up and up I wonder where it is headed I feel the warmth of the […]
The Good China
Sometimes I feel like I’m speaking a different language One that is connected to my heart And not to the world around me I swallow, feel my tongue where it runs down the back of my throat It doesn’t stop there Fastened down hard like other tongues Instead it unravels like a rope into the […]
