Poem
"The Odyssey of We are Centre" Where does he come through with his fishing lines? Casting off metaphors worms of vitriol hooked and dipped, he’s so green backed rolling in grandiose self published flack unhip and seasoned with his tart rye swallowed for kicks pulling deep wisdom from his shallow back pocket where he keeps his pride of place safe, pulls it forth with a flourish, the most current colourful topic, how ironic, "The Odyssey of We are Centre", his certified credential from the wallet of his all knowing mind all seeing eyes sarcastic smile, blinking, I’m a king pin he scrolls all his myopic blinds, fingers touching lines on the blue screen, pointing at this one and that one, he’s the town crier, then when all is put to bed, he’s commuting slowly on his own shadow ride into light bareback, twirling his lasso, the Mole waves and smiles; The astute reader laughs and wonders all the while, watching him as his Odyssey is drawn into his "Centre of We Are" anti-clockwise, vacuum sucked and sealed for sanitation and how thoughtful, for the safety purposes of others, mind you enough holes allowed to sprinkle all his other sunny devotions, sisters and brothers, the devotees drinking holy spirits spare the contaminated water, he accepts tithes in all his dry open boxes counting "here-here!" from sunny daffodils who thrive on planting sweet smelling roses while tramping on shadows with their golden shovels and throwing sweet n sour candy coated javelin spears to crack jokes at other's metaphorical long and short stemmed posies, for some light, while they ride unicorns and skip double dutch with rainbows, He touts he’s Moses with his paperback independent unprofitable online gropers, Parting waters and cheeks... chocolate starfish for smiling; She winks, He bellows, “What fresh hell is this?” Just like all the others he’s a moth he smiles at his own reflection in his words while uploading, he doesn't want to get too close he’s looking for the Light - he’s transforming slowly (LadyLabyrinth/2020) "Butterfly Caught" / Massive Attack https://youtu.be/g45PgMJMqLY https://youtu.be/BQgpT7lHDGE Chocolate Starfish..."Don't Play God" A pure work of fiction. Relating to: Cyber Bullying/On line Abuse/Trolling.
