.the laundry verse.
i have no landlord
now
i have neighbours
my granny pussycat, her real name emily
i remember worked in the sunlight laundry
a while in pokesdown
she was not a granny then
sounds a grand job, making all things clean
again
making all things tidy & white
i use a laundry, collect the marks & numbers
find stories amongst the linen
you will have routine and wood for the winter
a pleasing thought both here and there
i find the stories i make are often or always
dare i say not true
the apple tree was not felled
it fell
those that came before us
& those that come after
it is a question of time
do we move through or past?
i find i am correcting & editing here
it has come serious to copy & paste later
elsewhere
honest work
6.50
misty start
now clearing
preparing for the day
