if it is all about numbers as some suspect

you have success

 

whatever that is

 

why is that thing so important

surely it is made up and differing

for all the peoples

and creatures too

 

why james did they make those rules

before us

and even then ask why do we adhere

mostly

 

we may think we don’t

yet i feel we do mostly

 

sometimes glad to do so instead of

having our own

 

way to go

your cut and paste i understand

have been working that way some

time

 

i like the random nature of these

things

 

and do you remember, did i tell

you about the walnut trees in lampeter

that failed last year and we stood and

wondered if this was an omen

of things to come

 

maybe it was

and maybe just maybe those clouds

yesterday were a thing too

james

 

i cut the grass

once a task for the handyman

then a difficult chore for me

now comes easy

even a pleasure

while texting at intervals

 

while thinking of rhubard and

looking for the sun james

 

as for numbers

one hundred & two

with an ampersand for pattern

yet no one comments on that

 

they talk about the news

current affairs

and i wonder if it is their anger

that keeps them going james

 

while i drink tea and look at birds
