Plain Sailing my Friend
The soft wind is gone from his sails, like he’s cast off, an ice flow on ozone, severed, set adrift…and those people eagerly watching his frigid, impotent trail, whispering…pointing …
Till its bleeding crack dries
So he strips himself raw / Shredded and licked by a Maralinga sun / Like his naked skin mattered
The Arrogance of Poets
Clean fresh sheets / Make the arrogance of poets / Melt / Into cool clear whiteness
Love...like Ice in a Summer Heat Wave
Love / Always took me by surprise / Left me melted on the kitchen floor / Like ice on my back in a heat wave
The New Moon
The new moon / Just made a pass at me
Self-Indulgent Sunday
She wishes she were a simple and fatalistic fish and finds herself deciding to go outside to flop around in the delicately scented sun garden.
