Its passing felt by ache
by loss none can evade
by turn of wrist we watch
as allotted seconds spin
Its edge forward speeds
yet slowly once perceived
microwaves beep display
show time as ‘End’
Naked
Is this okay
You paid for it
Yes, but alright for you
You need too
Not so sure
Do it, I don’t mind
I’d better go
I’m naked
Me too
No rush
I like this
Some men do

Of Science And Of Poetry
Of science, a mind to
see, record, interpret
visualise, explain
models, extrapolation
statistics, predictions
simply put, told stories
And what of poetry
a late beginning near
an end, a life, looking
back, no, more reflection
suspended moments, spin
opposite, relative yet not
Saturday Shorts – Hands~Face~Isosceles
Touch you
Wash your hands
And this
I’ll handle it
Twenty seconds
Long enough
On your back
No on top
Head first
Can’t speak
Window open
Keep it down
You’re joking
Noise
Right angle
Bend knees
Triangle
Two feet above toes
Isosceles
Dirty talk
Mouthwash
Me too
Muse Talking
You’re here then
I’ve always been
I couldn’t tell
No words then
Not as good
Who says
Me I guess
No one you believe
Not the same though
As when – Embankment, river crossing
More Kings Cross, adjacent streets
Need your hand held
You let go
I moved on
I guess me too
You got it
See you soon
You will
….
Other Things
Anyone you know had it?
None I know of
Anyone with symptoms?
Every other one I know
They tested positive?
Not a single one
You getting out much?
Hardly, too much risk
Vaccine will fix that
Maybe, we’ll see
You been anywhere?
Three funerals
I guess Covid?
No, other things

Saturday Shorts – Good Fit
He’s all right angles
she reset his square
bent his straight till
a good fit to her curves
Said Three
Stumbling for words
she smiles…
he said three
I and love and you
he smiles…
she said the same
