each time the strings cut in /
to my heart /
drawing on wells

by page seventeen /
i know more intimacies /
than most friends share

bookish buddhist librarian /
pilates veggie bachelor /
- silences remain

painted windows overlook /
carpark rookery /
- jackson pollock seagull

even in bright sunlight /
the street by the train station /
always grey

driving towards rain /
grey curtains before hills /
- the sun gives way

applying the brush /
i change the plan

in shadows /

our breath /

escapes as mist

rain falling up i look into blue sky

so close /
her blue blur ~/
sand on our soles

barbie schoolgirl /
her ken /
pimply

bodies wrapped against /
the cold off the bay /
- a broken wine bottle

serpentine through curves /
- peloton kaleidoscope

afterburner sunset /
- rainbows recede east

feeling good and /
each cell an eye /
candy detector

gossamer needles /
..........,,,,.sail /
.....in drizzle mist

alone and sleepy /
the music /
slow and diffuse

life catches in stories seducing tears

cloud train /
spreading south /
strobing sun

reclined and oral /

fingers, sucking and buzzing tools /

- root canal job

looking up /
standing at /
a place in the distance

siamese hoons /
cruising commodores /
challenge 4 cylinder camry

the thought of /
taste of you /
sugar and lactose free

sunny and still /
fourteen degrees seems nice /
- she captures my eyes

across the bay /
fireball diving and showers tipped - /
watercolour sunset

yellow blossum /

a magpie with twigs /

falling towards spring

morning rise /
and pale peach light /
edging the curtains

my life /
a Morrissey song or few /
- even All the Lazy Dykes

we laugh - /
hot bods and hands warmed /
our feet freezing

riding fast /
shadow still /
ahead

emotional warning sign no. 3 /
- chasing cars /
leaving tears
