To 'V'.
(2013)
Tempered breaths, lids sink, sealed, Solid spine, grounded deep. Hubbub hushed,
As if a storm cloud burst. Leaves… Plumes of them across the sky. Bu… Hazy colours. Crimson, orange, go… past. Delicately brushing my face,… my senses. Such a beautiful scene,…
Swathed in murky grey, undulating, almost weightless, sounds drowned, submerged in subtle
Slipping, slowly, Struggling not to fall into dreaded dreamland. For some; a happy time of fantasy.
Swirling sage spheres dissolve the… Perfect, air-filled pockets, rolling, surging, bursting. Tawny slinks play; tumbling over,
Subdued and moonless, breaks the dawn, delivering the year; boisterous gloom, percussing panes,
Morning’s sun, subtly dulled. So perfect does enact such shattered souls. The mist - delicate,
Poised to pounce, behind a filmy glaze, a blackness, filled with everything, and nothing.
Fondest memories edges blurred - dimpled bottles, emptied of their tricolour liquid, shuffling their wonky necks
Wearily wafting, weightlessly, in buoyant, humid hue; Floating fearlessly, clutched in hazy radiance.
Magical silence, frames soulful melody, woeful beauty, endearing refrain. Chills nip my spine,
Static. White noise. Deafening silence, overflows; trickling webs
Day after the longest, lounging to sounds; traffic drone, plucks from strings swelling in the whispering
Sundown upon me, meandering amongst them; enchanted, midst the dimness, inveigled by their mighty sway. Whirring winds
Behind a blinking twinkle, difference disappears, swirling midst an onyx cave, masked, like moon from sun.
