cleansing my soul

the sea fills the eye each day
her many states and colours
her smell cleansing my soul

addicted

I take a sip of peace
addicted I quaff the sea.

no fighter jets roar on their way to war (so far today)

a bowlful of blue
poured into my skull

two pools of light
sea and the sky

-hold hands
make-believe for a day

no fighter jets roar
on their way to war(so far today)

beggar man

my lovers are all gone deep into forever
and I, beggar man, have chosen silence.

fashion

victims of fashion, sure
to greater or lesser degree

and that fluctuates-
in and out of fashion

corrected by love

while you have the light
do all you will

'Love, and do what you will' St Augustine

hidden in plain sight

do not give your flesh to the night
let the night soothe you to sleep
for many unknowns prowl the dark.
