No, Chris is not coming back, I am just posting our collaborations from time to time :)

The mornings hurt once supple now rusty quick wits halt groaning as curtains revert the sunlight that makes its way to the stage overhead thinking at a microphone creaking voice - is that mine? - joins in with frolicking beams grumpy, in need of... what.... and the audience stares confused? As much as I am? Popcorn smiles in hot buttered nervousness Wish I'd play the violin then no one would hear the smoke rasp in my microphone while I burn up the concessions creating a wistful sunset at the very break of day Make me a strong one for the morning and another for the night *** Augustus 3, 2017 Copyright © Chris Green and Darren White

Lovely and dark. I love it how our collaborations start somewhere and end always unexpected. We're always 'freewheeling'.

Great collaboration as always you two. If you're talking coffee I need a strong one after hearing that he's not coming back. What a shame, that we are losing another great poet here.....Maria
