the harvester

Tap

 

 

 

A cloud drifted lazy and grey.

Caught in its shadow a cart ambled through the hills.

Seated on a plank of hard splintery wood,

The driver mumbled a much loved song.

His horse whickered approval.

Above their position blue radiance shone bright.

Quota

 

Quota

 

Essential regret

A spider speck

Flagrant wink

An empty sink

 

 

 Pudding

 

Nights respite

Alphabet delight 

 

 

Demeanour

 

Drifting in and around

He wore a sailor’s gown

Three lengths woven coarse

To bridle a wicked horse

 

 

Jelly

 

Forty five degrees

Converging to a point

Skate and glide

Tumble and fall

A whistling wind screams ruin

Quiet chokes the crush

Scramble and claw

Rive and score

Tremendous feat never a chance

Blast doubt and turn a route

temple

Wet Slate

Forlorn Tipple

Dribble Net

 

A Want of Listen

 

So little, so small.

Hands spread, mouth wide.

They hear the cry.

Ears prick, heads incline decline.

Wonder sparks bright.

Affectation, a pure delight.

Nothing to compare captured in the light.

 

Stretch Balloon

 

Inching forward, a steady plod.

Compensation an aggregation.

More to listen, ease the terror.

Greater to be, a must.

 

Eager

 

What is held too long to hold.

From a place.

Grinding wheels.

Arrival beckons, friction slips.

Ghosting through a point of balance.

Scale tipped, choice delivered.
