Poem:
She didn’t like the tone of his silence
a day she’d prefer he didn’t breathe
he’ll not try that hard to please her
takes another glass of her iced tears
Six Words:
Just asking… why’s your shadow blue?

Bridge
Between us…
span of years no tears
No us…
feelings flow beneath
Useless…
looking back cold feet
Neighbourhood Watch
Net curtains, unseen, looking out,
indiscretions, neighbour, opposite,
hot and sweet at 23, in and out,
no man has a key, hardly time for tea,
old, bald, same time every week,
young ginger, first time, flushed,
he seemed pleased, knocked up,
took a risk, moving on next week.
Well Met?
Well met?
their corner of convenience
boundaries set, unstretched.
Who are you anyway?
Half a jar you say
Well… not quite
Full or empty?
No, chance not cliche
Add to or take away?
Wrong idea, wrong concept
Your mistake, must be
Who are you anyway?
Half-Chances?
Saving, me?
half-chances in a jar
not knowing who you are?
Untuned?
I despair, not getting through,
as if you ears untuned to my words,
not of this world, perhaps that’s it,
you a goddess, an angel, a mystery,
way beyond me, my comprehension,
I touch, you feel, still here, reality.
Once In A While
Did he know her
once in a while maybe
we all believe we know someone
don’t we?
Tell
Can’t tell you all
but listen…
tell me what you will

Poem:
Is there any sense
in what a man
and woman says
Are there any days
when words are
more than replays
There’s no copyright
to words just the
way we use them
Six Words:
Copyright… same words put another way
