Courant Poems | Examples


The Appointment

He has an appointment,
In the Big Smoke,The Great Wen
and if successful I will of course provide indubitable support, keep in touch, on occasion visit.
He reveals "It's with an artist."
"Wow, anyone I know". "What's the job?"
"Unlikely Dad, but he's massively respected in his field....tattooing. It's not an interview. I'll be back tomorrow after he's finished."
Following realisation all I can muster is "Cool" a poor attempt at acceptance.
We go through the expected. Surety. Who? What? Where? 
It was always going to happen.
A music production degree without body art is, I believe an auto fail.
And deep down I wished it was me, confident, carefree, au courant,
Once I possibly was, so I'll tell him it looks sensational, cool.

Strawberry Kisses

"Strawberry Kisses"



temptation 
covert operatives

brush contact 99
coquettish Smart near misses 

flirtatious crispness
in the velvet time sliding

softly persuasive
dead dropping 

hungry ghosting gumshoes hubristic
dangling dripping words delicious

on tongue twisters
birdwatching the blowback

poiesis ripe
for swallows and ravens

chasing bell ringing
black buried au courant bluebirds out

better than late
Merry Christmas

lips for speaking
freshly plucked 

smiles 
succulent kisses

cool spooning
for the slightly touched

I Am Not Ready Yet

On my way to start a new chapter but I am not ready yet
as we drive the tears come harder 
I am on a train that keeps getting faster 

Off to university to be in a box room alone 
off to place I do not know
all I want to do is to go home 

The quick sand won't let me go 
I am stuck under ice with a courant 
I am following the status quo

golden goose pretense
of an au courant coffer —
rags rich on his breath

There are seasons in the sorrows 
Morrow's foretaste of rhythm
Seeding frost bitten sentiment 
In breathless grace
Au courant of prescience break 
Hastily deliquesce by ardor laze
Bequeathed in blooms 
A blushing spring on thirsty banks
Until suns and moons 
Give rite to sleet 
The life that was
Once more shall sleep

Absence

The time 
You are away
I come back
To 
My cave
To rewrite
The torah,
The bible,
And the courant.
