'Why should I bother to talk to you...

Forgive me, my swift carelessness of...

in her ever changing moods
slips into something more comfortable

a swollen tangerine sky 
moves its tongue over 
the blues of her violet harbour

The machinery of my body feels like it's failing,

We were best friends. 
We were lovers.
Inexorably linked.
For such a commitment-phobe, I fell in love quickly.  But I didn’t fall, really.

I dove into the deep end, headfirst, quite a splash,
Not of the pool, you see, but grief's enormous gash.
It’s Olympic-sized, this sorrow, chlorinated blue,
And I’m the sole competitor, with nothing else to do.
The butterfly of...

On the river of life…when times are difficult…

I teeter on the edge
Of a crumbling cliff, beneath me
Is nothing but cloud and indistinct shape,
A bird or two, laughing at my wingless back,
My songless throat.  I spread my arms
As if they had feathers,...
