Doubleboundary Issues
Climate change

like economic boundary chaos
Between each of four regenerative
and degenerative
annual cycling...

A Summer Storm
Firstly, skies grew dark, whilst the winds grew strong,
this ominous progression, showed it would not be long
before towering clouds released their thunderous load
of torrential rain, on the land below. Though rain bode

My Room Forever More
In this house so ominous, I did hear a hiss.
What could it in this, alone in house and room.
It was a sound of a crack, like shivers go down the back.
There it is again, a...

Easter Snow
Let me tell you a story...
It has not happened often in our neck of the woods;

I know, a hard nut to crack!

at once a Satan and an angel.
To the outer world I am someone.
But in the well-guarded cellars of my privacy
aren’t I...

Depression Times - Party Times
Depression times – no one went out
To theatres, concerts, movie shows –
They had friends in or went to their homes.
The whole country was more than broke.
There was always drinking at the parties
And a low-lying cloud...

To torch the tumble of crisp and fragile foliage
Where a multitude of basking golden shapes rest serene

They said that the ice...

First-Person Personal
First-Person Personal
By Sy Roth
Here adrift wrapped in a coat of heebeejeebies
Fearful of using the first-person personal
Masking it instead by holograms of itself,
Playful non-entities cavorting among the semi-living.

On a drowsy dusk in summer the air suddenly stops to flow,
the trees seemed stilled fossils, their boughs drooping low.
The horizon turns a slate draped with onyx cloud layers,
