Poems
May 2017
detective, retired
Pavement where
an egg shell should not be
that perfect shape
fractured with spider leg cracks
across the surface
of its world.
How did they get there?
those Nazca Lines?
ac
And the amount of discarded shoes seems to be multiplying each day,
the busted boot on the traffic island
its been there for weeks
a plimsoul
childs shoe
strangely,
they're all left footed
is there significance in this?
I look for patterns in everyday things,
TV Schedules
wallpaper
colouring books
Sudoku squares
floor tiles
Tube maps
football scores
I keep looking for clues
like a retired detective who just can't let go.
