We go back a long way....
It's hard to glean the word from here, the crusted, rust-bowl weeks have leaked their symptomatic vinegars beseiged by mordant noise, I find my third-eye blurred and cacified, uncinematic soul dethroned by visitors and voices Trick of choice, a sickled caper April born and paper-thin a frisk of whiskered hokum to the living.. Considering that all I am arrived as lions - left like lambs The Marches of this life, broke unforgiving

Vigorous crow sat in sleeks and crackling curt as we below, rewire, re-learn a cackling spurt of love and envy energised, again, refined an upturned eggcup of an eyed desire Icarus glow your wings have cloned a spring-rise from tomorrow first to know our laddered sun comes climbing from the mire

Aten-Sion
All is passing dark-round scent a loathe to live so unfulfilled and needing. --something-- cooling, soft on evening came, a song-less millpond gaze appraised the nothungness of doing. from long-abandoned plans we watch with growing understanding it was never meant to be....

There is difference to yester Air comes taller, northed in orphaned blackberry straggled bitters mottled harvest, left by knowing keepers, feed an early winter bird. Tree corpus seen, dismissed of voice, this August-esperanto hushed, their missives to a scumbled sun seem purposeless endeavour, The measured path has quickened step and I forget the pleasures met that stumbled through a furied heart away between the weather

In these unified states amazing fade-ins A made-in Britain, Baileys bottle subtle winter rattle, shaking daydream from the poles Scolded by the errant claim that bold St George, is cross-eyed lame and taking to the sherry...

Early bird and barely held emerging blur stir coffee lines in irises of ibis billed regret divide me Unexpected great white egrets underlit and unicorn on secret morning movements A prudency of ivy hides the singer - not the song a backing track of blackcap warming, calling down the early sun, as if to walk beside me
