After


A paper poppy lies dead in a puddle,
...

The Flames of War

In the cool blue morning she woke
She gave the prowling cat a stroke
...

Guilt


Stop smiling at me out of your photograph
...

Cycle


Cold black lightning reaches upwards to a grey sky
...

Elsie

Looking at me from a newspaper page
She stumbles, she's learning to walk
...

Shelter
...

Tangible moment
...

Blind sunset
...

New Motorway

Cobweb grass on bare legs stroke
Pounding heart, breath like smoke
...

A Bad Wish

I found in an arcade a Zoltar machine
The jewels on the turban were aquamirine
...

The Best Kind Of Rain


The worst rain of all is going to work rain
...

The Reality Tree

Yesterday the tree, a black skeleton on a grey sky
Everything composed of cut-outs, I don't know why
...

Tangible moment

Against an old paint chipped railing I rest
A train station, mid-summer, early morning
...
