this endless summer
Aloe Vera soothes the skin
The kettle screams, ” Tea! “
rolling on and off the lounge
napping while watching Netflix

The Thrum
leaves fall in the night
the thrum of the forest drums
wild tribal dancing
Forgotten
alive, yet erased
cloth denies identity
no voices allowed
an education
imagination and dreams
the Taliban takes
when nothing remains
strong women stand tall with a
quiver and arrows
a forgotten death
for the tyranny of this
land must be undone
New
the wane of the moon
My past and the present go
a new beginning
Polluted Optimism
an extreme heat day
social media pollutes
my dear optimism
Nap Cusp
itchy from the wind
on the cusp of a sweet nap
insistent meows
the washing machine chimes in
ready for a holiday
From our Armchairs
Rows of dream houses
Here, today looks the same as
simple yesterday
Inside the four walls
The ruse of our lives is clear
as we slowly change
Constant internet
Increasingly filtered snacks
armchair protesting
Ourland
wandering in the snow
We know the ways of this land
Whispers of war come
We will not bend the knee to
men who possess no honour
Cotton Trees
on sunburnt country
thoughts of the fairy floss trees
the old cotton loom
Snow Pillow
Dreams upon a snow pillow
The forest murmurs from afar
My ocean meets the cliffs
