Lightly the rain falls upon the lamp lit streets, the shabbily dressed figure
Walks with an air of uncertainty down the cobbled stone streets, leaning,
On his rickety cane, the elderly gentleman huddles beneath his umbrella Of...

I was reading Dragon a book, like to children, you should always do.

Apparently it added magic, wherever she scattered it, as along,...

So I dressed as my patronus, seventeen-hands high stallion horse,
Entering the Great hall with mask that had...

ANGELS WITH GREEN FACES
Saturday evening, big night everywhere,
Six teenage girls, hormones to spare,
gather in the bedroom to prepare.
Mirror, hairdryer, tongs for curling,
giggles and squeals, music blaring,
make-up, perfume, clothes for sharing.
“Mum” came the call, upstairs I...

It falls in elegant crystals, forming blankets of pure white.
The whitest of the white that you have ever seen.
Each flake different to the other, unique in its own way.
The proudest of proud the snow has...

Within a wave-particle duality, I create my own immortality,
My heart exists in a centrality where love conquers finality…
In a vinculum vortex viewing lines of symmetry are renewing,
Of light-emitting particles spewing clumping matter is gluing.

Distortions in...

It's out there somewhere,
that marginal place where the elastic nature
of truth, reality,
the measure and fit of coffins,
baby cribs,
the doable dimensions of a a plasma screen
according to its scope, sufficiency, and relationship
to a plausible accommodation of...

day in the life of a coal miner 

in the darkness you hear them
their boots clumping along the cobbled stones
not dawn yet ...yet still they are on their way to work
young lads of 15 plus.

He stamps the ice beneath his feet
Fallen leaves, gifted from the trees clinging to his soles
Softening the thud of clumping boots
Patterns shimmer in the fading light
As he trudges up the path
A reveller hoots
Somebody laughs
A drunk...

An un-fairie queene
from an unchivalrous tale
lumping and clumping
off beaten tracks
down beaten ones
so beaten
that they click and crack
criss-crossed with crabgrass
so tall that it looks
like some fiendish crag
it crassly sticks to soles
and copiously 
feasts on clothes
not only...

Rough hands upon her,
not near, there, or where,
nor the seashell tip of a fingering care

During Hurricane Harvey resourceful fire ants stayed alive
clumping together on waterways, forming a raft, not one dive
I saw them and my hair stood up and I let out a scream
Knowing how dangerous they are as...

The Pink Joey or Dwarf Pink Kangaroo Paw
when cataloged made botanists quiver.  
For it's a rare native Australian plant
first found along the Margaret River.

A clumping evergreen, it loves the sun
however, it’s content to stay...

Shocking ... really shocking!
That's my blood
splatter on the floor!
My vital-life-juice, 
spilling over my eyelid,
clumping my long lashes
tracing my sad cheek
into the side crack
of my lips prompting
my tongue to stick out
to investigate, tasting
sweet zincky blood
about to...

A child's wondrous view
Of ice
White globe on globe
Taken 
From the wind's malice
With innocent glee 
Scooped in the hand
The dust
Of water clumping
Against the breath
Of shivering coldness

Crystals
Yet not glass
Geometric molecules
Made beautiful
By difference
Individuality lost
In the collective reference
Of the...
