Illusive

Thinking about reading
Thinking about writing

I stop briefly
Put pencil to paper
Then slip back

Into the comfort of thoughts

Decoration

A band of scarlet crepe paper
Criss-crosses
Up the banister
Cross-crisses
Back down again
The loose end starting to unravel


[18 December 2012]

Write?

Words of things
Without sophistication

Pen to paper
Keyboard to screen
Thoughts made words

Without elaboration

Poetic qualities
Subjective
Or absent?


[17 December 12]

Train times

Waiting time

Sitting time

Writing time

Reading time

Watching time 

Sleeping time

Cradled by the rock

And the hum

Of towns and country

Rolling on by

Jewels

In the grey evening light

Raindrops glisten on the washing line

Recall 

Dewdrops sparkle on the spider web

In the grey morning light
