"The Shadows of Water through Glass"
Schools in,
looking for meaning
in the Shadows of Water through Glass
Observing
the scaled Gold Gifilte fish
with a minced mind stuffed inside its own skin
Swimming in circles, a delicacy
devouring its own scéals
looking for denotation
From the faces of
schooled fish habitually weary, leering
in the Shadows of Water through Glass
The shadows are dissoluble
the minced mind swallows its own tales
rebirthing like a Russian Doll
disconnected, in gravitas
it continues to swim
an appetiser for the bigger things

"The Process revealed, which road is chosen?
Meaning is broken, the question never comes
The heartless believe, passion is misused
All the feelings abused, the answer never comes"
scéal/Irish
"Seduction in the Black Out Days"
Love wrapped its long legs around me
Brought me closer to so much more
in the Light I breathed in your fever
you touched me inside planted your
hard heated mind and seeded me
wanting so much more,
the pulling towards
the rising, the calling
a little death thrilled me
away in the morning
Seduction in the Black Out Days
Long distance riding your cool cerebral waves
(LadyLabyrinth / 2020)

The phone conversation
Late in the evening, my daughter brought me an apparat
that made it possible to talk to the dead.
The first on the line was an electrician complaining
I hadn’t paid him; sure, how could I pay you when
You died before I had money ready?
You could have bought flowers and visited the funeral.
You are right I could but omitted to do so
Because I had no money and it was raining that day.
You could use an umbrella. I haven’t got one,
No self-respecting seaman will be seen alive with one.
Besides I was on a ship near the Azores when you died.
This man always complaining, static noise and other
Voices disturbed the talk.
I thought some people never stop moaning however
Long they have been dead.
