Was that me for a moment?
The gardens soaking.
The slugs are sliming…
Get yourself in the moment!
The day is dawning
The heat is rising
Make some tea in a moment.
…night without dreams – I bet I had some.
sheet’s on the floor – mattress peeping.
Cockerel is crowing – wants some feeding.
Shipping forecast – possibly later…
Sit in dark with daylight growing,
waiting around for the morning news.
Chill on my legs as I make a Rollie
Looking for symptoms of the flu
Casual thought about making coffee.
More Mary-Ann with the shaky hand.
Stand up, sit down – issue a moan.
Pull the curtains – must do the lawn.
Have a wee-wee – or have I been?
Faffing about since the clock read 5:15…
A slow heavy fast night of clammy claw
CS Lewis wakes up the coffee hour
Good banks for the rich: bad banks for the poor.
Loose head props a sea of waxy flowers
Lolling on the blue, crucible altar;
Swimming the foamback Bosphorous caprice
Carpetted riviera road floor.
Catch the earlybird bullet to Nice!
Consideration: transportation is
Unavailable at this holy hour
Also calculate the lonely crowds of rose
That spend so much time wallflowering
Patiently awaiting a tender pruning.
