My movements
In black and white,
As the sonographer moved the wand,
Up and down
The belly of my mother,
Showing you
Mystery and excitement,
The next chapter...

Evening Fry
A priest once told me that the lump
on my hand was a ganglion,
a fortress of fat besieged by health.
At last it burst and the hand swelled
like an old man's,
shovel shaped and splayed.
It was her black...

We have lived a false life, you and I,
Chasing halcyon dreams through chaos and despair;
We have ventured beyond the brink,
And only just returned – with weakened knees
And tremulous smiles, our hearts...

Tales of a Hero
After a long drought, it started to rain.
Breaking the spell on the parched plain
Rainfall fell steadily at the begin.
Quenching the land and everything within.

huge globs,
big, barking mouthfuls
dripping from their jowls like milky icicles
Teeth-bared lips,
They guarded the gateway.
Pleased by their vacated spittle,
their noses now sniffed the air,...
