as eyes seize it
a gasp
inflated with
its own importance
aghast
temporarily
all the traffic lights
come on as red
beside
the astroturf
wild flowers
rain at last
i call the peony
a pee on me
pop-star’s funeral
ten thousand smart phones
at arms length
time travelling
correcting past mistakes
i am a yo-yo
moored
where time flows past
just thinking
in life’s scales
tomorrow weighs nothing
but just you wait
life is taxiing
on childhood’s runway
- clear for take off
he spoke of things
the birds beasts and flowers
of another land
oh do keep still
my dear little spider
i’m rescuing you
the totality
of one photograph
eclipsing all others
