Premium Member Shrinkage

Poor Adam in Eden’s first winter
Would run home but Eve was no sprinter
They walked in the nude
Eve said, which was rude
‘Oh, that’s a strange place for a splinter’

SURF'S UP

It drug the beach sand making trenches
causing lightheaded fainting of wenches
the ocean was icy
he stood out quite nicely
even after allowing for shrinkage.

It's comforting to shrink 
Down onto a hard white surface 
Ant-sized, running,
Dust for pebbles 

Sunlight through glass
Clear boundaries 
But room to move 
Safe from sweeping forces 

Go ahead and ask.
Answer: it's drying out 
Direction evaporating. 
Clear sky's a cage
See the giant birds 
They're not happy

Something Wild

That fugitive dream 
of shrinkage :
a room in a room
a door in a door.
You were hurting the house affairs 
at midnight.

The space accident 
starts dismanteling the life.
Selective pain 
comes again.
You start distancing from story touch, 
long vision.

The canary brings down 
the roof. Somebody was leaving.
The eyes will search another sky,
another tree.
In a light slumber 
another fall from the perch.
