Mostly unfinished and
unpolished are these
works in the process of progress.

poetry's like **** when you're up to your neck in it
I stick my neck out to
go out on a limb.

Frequently
the sequence,
if eventuality is sequenced
silences me
which is another poetry, but
I don't mime all the time.

Eventually
I will become
more than a sequence
and consequently
less of a rhyme
less mime
and always
less than I think
there is of time,

I'm almost at the deep end
but
still paddling in the shallows
mostly unfinished
and Blackburn
is too.
