a strange forest
where light and dark
are fed to us by
curious creatures,
their unexpected gods
in thoughts and deeds

They sit on their own
in their Hermit Kingdom
other side of the wall
singing their song
entitled
nothing to envy
peeling the skin
away in generations
it's worse than a famine
where colour

The Dissolving Heart
“The Dissolving Heart”
How many keys
played for seeds
bleeding a life
read, received
cast out
in the left field
planted in the heart
of karma to become
new life reflecting
inwards out to another
holding the echoing
music kept safe...

In the moment
time stops:
suspended; seen
in solitary confinement
the heart of a soul
silent light weighted
in the dark, rebellious

Mary waits four days
in the flux
The Lazarus Heart
kick starts bedevilled

I got to grind
All the time

If I fuss and whine
When there's...

Sunken, hollow faces.
They sit at benches;
Tiny fists...
