Mud in the Water

Mud in the water

Water in the fields

Too many feelings

Paranoid or real

Man in the river

River over full

Too strong a current

Depth to the pool

Wishing Well

I can hear you thinking about it

Remembering 

Wishing things had been different here, then and there

I can see you playing around it

Imagining

Throwing what ifs and toys high and low through the air

I can feel you wishing your life away 

With only one foot on the ground

It is never the right time to disappear 

When you are lost you can be found

Running Out

Slipping, sliding

Across the top

Edging, enticing

Towards the drop

Time to flourish

Then to stop

Pulling, straining

To be released

Never complaining

Biting the leash

Time to encourage

Then be at peace

Missie

 

Defiant

Fierce ball of black brown fur

Quick of claw

Demanding

Attention draw

Fragile

Travelling companion

Mesmerising purr

Interrupting

Co-conspirator

-->

Spiral Theory

 

Coiled strings floating, darting, buzzing through whatever. 

A trail or two behind, a stretch or two in front. 

Miniscule, micro stardust speckles

Conscious, feeling and wondering for all that.

16/9/17

-->

Beast from the East

pink morning after
orange diggers
yellow teeth
chewing ground

blue grey patches
concrete ribbons
headlight white
scuttling around

Here and Now

Landscapes ahead

What do they look like

At the edge

Of the universe


If there is instead

Only this

Point in place

And nowness?


3/4/2019

What if?

What if – we are not moving?

Misperceiving, being misled

Space and time around us

Moves instead?

What if – there is something?

Too unknowable to have a name

Yet undeniable

All the same

What if – dreams can come true?

We can let each other be

Safely flourishing

Peacefully

What if – you are me?

We think, feel, touch and see

Interdependent

Utterly

Wild Furnace

 
 

Briefly dancing fire and flames

Midnight furnace wild desire

Curious, consuming

Igniting, fighting to inspire

18/4/19

For Aila

Eye lock

Tick tock

The clock

Starts running

Down or up

Depends on how

We choose

Our views

Dark eyes

Surprise

Tough hearts

Start melting

Liquid pools

In which to lose

And choose

New views

Big Word

Love is a big word

Too big to say

Too often

Too much to give away

Too lightly



Love is a big word

Big word

Big word

Love is a big word

Big word

Big word

Love is a big word
