Please, imagine now,
if you can.
A cheery centipede,
with a frying pan.
...
You're appalled by the riots,
the homeless break your heart.
But what examples do your actions set?
Have you tried to make a start?
...
Unknown, unseen, unheard.
Assigned by God?
Obliged by blood?
Serving penance for a crime?
...
Though your woes are many,
despair upon you like a cloak.
Loneliness consuming you,
your life just one big joke.
...
A Summer Morning.
Grey tarmac bathed in gold,
cracked panes of glass with a diamond shine.
Clouds bowed, the sky now claimed by the Sun.
...
With this ring
I open myself to you
my many pasts
...
Time leaves me by the waterside
beside the deep, dark pool
she leaves me, entranced
transfixed by the crimson crowned quill
...
A monster from the toilet
moved into our shed
it emptied out Dad's toolbox
roars "It's now my bed! "
...
There is a stoat
Afloat on the moat
See him gloat
In his new boat
...
