birds dance in the trees
teaching us how to gossip
shit on everyone
fears dissolve into the wine
leaving gossip for the birds

So far from Mum
a perfect night sky
watching the coming Eclipse
a wish to see Mum
we stand under the same sky
far apart, yet together
Imagined You
grey sky, falling leaves
rain swept sentimental day
grey thoughts remain still
listening to the winding
additional cup for you
Press
Fall intensifies
Watching and scrolling all day
Forgotten website
A big blue button says, “Press”.
A laughing Jeanie appears.
Nostalgia Glasses
a longing for home
we return to our childhood
rose coloured glasses
artificial memories
a longing for something else
Rain Longing
light rain starts and stops
to hear the heavy rainfall
distant memory
many cursed the rainy days
the cost of our ignorance
More Time
only nature moves
the segmentation of time
whispering your lie
you try to create more time
cheating yourself out of life
Cats + Hunger
the crinkling wrappers
cats meow in unison
an endless hunger
falling into a nightmare
reality overload
What are we becoming?
From behind the blinds
Watching the way the world turns
Feelings of censure
Whispering affirmations
Freedom slowly bleeds away
Innocence
swept away from there
last seen running in a cloak
shadows and the sea
the lighthouse keeper worries
a vision of innocence
