Refrak

Attention, like light though bright and cheery when focused to a dot singes skin easily In the end it bothers even the most patient or makes the recipient take the giver for granted

cul de sac

If you must lie again     about meeting your friend for the minutes you spent     were unknowingly lent whatever you have now     simply must end.

Pale ale

You're down with post-holiday blues That you numb with seasonal brews Whose bitter yet cool aftertaste Helps you through this trying phase.

Moloko

Sitting in my fridge door a half-full milk bottle regrets you not having stayed to finish it all.

Deaf

My eardrums burst each quiet night pierced by this silent scream of fright that echoes in my hollow heart emptied by the time we're apart.

Uppercase M

Streaks of lightning liven up the late evening summer sky as I listen to music   I think of us and cry for the fleetingness of life whose end might finally give one of us the chance to hold   the other's hand again.

Bereft

Hope they've made it to the great unknown With love and care that you've not shown Comfort the sick revel where you are Call the bereaved excuse: I'm so far Let go you were so you do the same Reach out you will so you'd remain sane Free will, forked roads you look back no more Forlorn, forgave but have not forsworn 31 May 2007

On the Fringe

An afternoon in the park awaiting the fest to start; Twenty degrees centigrade balmy, in an old tree's shade; Competing chirpy birds with blaring indie verse; Dogs in fours, some twos, digging tails a-wag, twigs they're chasing; Relaxed, breathing in deeply letting out a sigh slowly; From the past, you're set free caring not what will be. 27 May 2007
