Wharf-pool water –
Century’s stagnant mirror –
Surface made of shattered
Butcher’s knife blades and
Shards of guillotine in a
Brick-sided drawer:
Wharf-pool water –
Century’s stagnant mirror –
Surface made of shattered
Butcher’s knife blades and
Shards of guillotine in a
Brick-sided drawer:
Totally lacking confusion,
Simply and without fear,
A little rocky maybe,
But with good heart
With cheer;
Something almost recognised,
Slow diamond sunrise
On the edge of the new
In the territories of the heroes.
High-lord bright skies
Valuable echo’s reprise.
“Well, shall we do it …
Just one more time?”
“Of course, we must;
But as usual,
Not without change;
Not without a flourish.”
Sat in a box today –
For the first time ever –
Something I had truly believed
Beyond me …
Or below me;
I am not sure which.
Funny how
Number eleven
And a name from the past
Can bring
You down …
And up short!
Sat in a box today:
Alone, but
Surrounded by friends.
We won –
We do these days –
An exciting habit:
But maybe
I lost myself
And found a bigger picture;
That leaves me so confused.
Now that I have stumbled upon
A truth, is it right
To go on
Playing the fool?

Fist and face,
Colours blur
Behind drawn curtains
It’s hard to be sure.
I couldn’t keep your faith;
Your pointing finger hurt,
Every remorseless time.
The goal was mine:
The victory bitter.
You’ll never know
How much I didn’t
Want you to be wrong.
