Poems

4 September 2018

Disturbed

the line is crossed
into the
special world

live this life
there’s no return

surrounded by enemies
lurking & pounding
& friends
with gifts

dark mystery
& promise

desperate odds

On the deck — Pokaka

breath flows freely
shining, the sun warms everything
the dog drops her bone

*

2:20 AM

sleep sleep sleep no sleep
night grabs me vigorously—
work with possession

*

back in the office
fading memories of rest
linger & refresh

*

2:54 PM

Sumner

machines hum hum hum
drowning the blue sparkling sea—
diners go, birds come
