Cranked up pistons bleached in summer’s heat
Hot steam rising as gears thundering
Beyond the crystal liquid city lights
Highways built across the land
In hearts felt pride American...

Matty Mattel Doll Circa Mcmlxv(alternately titled: idolizing childhood's end

its way down the overpass. Residents cover up with plastic,
a conflagration of yellow light on garbage bags
hitting tree tops, branches, leaves old and new. Boughs
sagging with the...

Springs and StarsignsI don’t know if there’s a God,
But I still prayed we’d not be seen,
That night we scaled your neighbour’s fence,
To steal their trampoline,
In the halflight the elastic,
Shone like a lacquered animal skin,
Stretched taut across the...

The Captain and the CodfishPeter Pan? He is nothing but a tale drawn out,
a hero of half-truths, drowned in fairy dust,

There is something ornately comforting in a downpour of a day’s healthy rain
So replenishing, so cleansing, so renewing, as so the giver to feed life’s grain
As standing undercover feeling the smaller flecks of the rain...

DistressedDistressed by Rob Barratt
My furniture is all distressed
It's unusually unstable
The oak bookcase is quite depressed
As is the coffee table
The worktop has a thin veneer
It seethes beneath the surface
The taps know how low they can… sink
And...

Missing Miss MavisLife without her
would never be the same

Brooding RootedI sit and watch.
Changes come so slowly.
So, vigilance is required,
an attentiveness to minutia.
