(inspired by Robert Pinsky)                 Morning sun on his face steady motor murmur vibrating the hose Bluebells clamber over the hill’s top - nothing to remember only the same engine noise that keeps making the same sounds under his head poised and pulsing the same beat no-one to say his name, no need, no-one to praise him only the engine’s voice - over and over, running under him. © M.L.Emmett

Sonnet For a Suicide
(inspired by Robert Pinsky)                 Morning sun on his face steady motor murmur vibrating the hose Bluebells clamber over the hill’s top - nothing to remember only the same engine noise that keeps making the same sounds under his head poised and pulsing the same beat no-one to say his name, no need, no-one to praise him only the engine’s voice - over and over, running under him. © M.L.Emmett
