a hinge in the year
crows lift from the black plum tree
pale thoughts of blossom

A wild bird glides across a
crescent moon
and is sliced in two
- the bird and it's reflection

Saturn hangs in space pristine
it's rings the very symbol of perfection

For did not Saturn reign
in a Golden Age of abundance
wealth and peace?

But that same Saturn did eat his offspring as they were born lest they usurp that fatal throne as he himself had done

Who cries for those babes?

...and it hasn't even begun
to settle in where I'm sure
mountains were lined
along the shore: the monotony
of calling every wave
a battle, every grain of sand
a world waiting to be counted
and thrown to the swell,
crashing universes pushed
aside one sunken footprint
after another

Last winter's frozen branch
now hale and green
waves summer scents my way

still, I love you
from a distance
silent as a wish
waiting
in the belly of the well

Love curls around us
like the amorphous strands
of coffee steam

A glorious nourishing calm

To be perfectly at ease
with one another
is not too brook no conflict
but to allow time do some of
the heavy lifting in working
through to a space where your
latest fight seems ludicrous
to you both

Somewhere between head
And the clumsy sausage hand
Magic always dies

Humble homes each with
their hatred of junk mail
formalized in writing put out
their meagre gardens
for the birds and the bees
and two weathered cats
who keep each other at a
respectful distance

We won’t speak of those arctic winds.
I don’t need to make sense of it.

All I want is to lie in our poetry,
breathing its wild mystery that loosens my footing,
then teaches me to stand.

Stay with me in our special place,
with honey on the air and Oshun’s necklace warm between us.

The spark strikes
In the dark behind the ribs
All heat and no light

The hands become a question
That only the skin can answer
A fevered reach
That mistakes the hunger
For the feast

I recall the
easy laughter,
the days
that fit us
without effort,
when love felt
like a habit
we’d keep
forever.
I carry those
moments
gently now,
from before
your silence
learned my name,
from before
you broke
my heart.

Always wandering onwards

You say I waste my life
in bed but I have no regrets
O but give me dreams, sleep goddess!

From flying over the paddies of my youth and dining with friends in a labyrinth with beautiful music yet somehow all making sense

Even the Phoenix whose golden-scaled embers glow long after I'm awake

My brother declares
one of my memories
as his and we argue
until we both become
confused by the malleable
past, and have to text Mum
for the answer
