the space between notes

she hides beneath
black jeans
under
the white skirt
with carnation flowers
before youth is gone -
his three minute visits
to here
and to
the meat market

and the casual violence
of his chocking hazard

somewhere in the world

broke
with a cave with a view
and aliens in the wall
tapping
at the lab in the back
and the guns in the nest
of the rock'n'roll dream

the innocence of hunger


if it's not love
a casual text
underwater studies
before the code
both feet off the floor
and a moral panic

atomic blonde


your father
before you were born



moments
before you were concieved


a bed of music
makes it slide in his collection


a nation at war
fighting for pin ups


a bouncing fling
a hot rod in the cockpit
a caper pulp

the land that clasped hers


warm
sweet intoxication


a jealousy


sprawled across her chest
found in gossip
a play of head
and startled eyes


she might fall in love

a little stiff
between two members

of the younger generation

a disorganised bath
the depth of your mouth
an invisible strap beneath black
the dynamics
of format and delivery
are shifting

a ladder of extremes in the special solar-lunar situation

a harbinger
of extinction
a "crash-program"
against galactic forces
the "bob"
above and below
the plane
of the Milky Way
stifled by the our greatest threat
The British Crown's Green Fascism
which has halted
all
scientific
and technological
development
for the past
several decades

the way our satellite worked

her mistress in the bath
and beneath her clothes
the barber's comb-over
and on the way
to the kitchen
for scissors
a cow
jumps over
a bowl
of green tea

the squeeze of a hand

a thousand lovers
on a mosaic screen

the toys
she will acknowledge

a book full of ways to
and you choose one

that kissing
is the greatest intimacy
she says
that carnivorous animals
never
eat another
struck by lightning

when you need it

he graduated on percussion
moonwalk
a rapid test
for the buffalo cartel

a bikers night

the evening magazine
a hat above the stairs
his teddy bear
summertime
and the sunset limited

what a mermaid wears to a dance
lies in the desert

never miss a book signing event

word count
on a chart
observes
my own procrastination
of what sentence

to

write

next


to see the experiment continues -

infrastructure

and the stable earth

geographical independence is necessary


a matter of locational and logistical diversity
our historical status
the serendipity of a normal year
its own eccentric self a
potential satellite

meetings in future will occur on a needs basis

If we can obtain the equipment

a bag of rice
the primary postures
focus mitts and one kick shield
six wide-eyed adults
the foot of a ladder
a nine-sentence saga
the pure falsetto
of an impassioned community

the first player to reach the final space wins the game

the Tanzanian postal service is a nightmare

the home front

this is an action
for some while past

his busy calendar
the collected works
of the tinker bell times

hit and run
by a gang of smiling youths
february 26, 1916

history is dismissed
or often forgotten

long may this remain

The daily season creep: 26608 - 11311

11311 was the last post in the first series of the daily season creep.

I am blogged out. Haiku, haiga and pictures, I've shared a lot.

Some of you, especially Lorraine, have commented, leaving supportive notes, sharing your likes and dislikes. I thank you for following and for commenting.

Sometimes it's been a struggle to find something to publish. I can look back and see the quality err. I can see the sudden shifts, too, when a new idea has saved me from silence. At the moment, though, the cupboard is empty. I do not want to force myself, to publish the lame, to repeat myself, nor to reach back to really old stuff, because that's not where I am at the moment.

It's been a fun ride. I hope you have enjoyed it, too.

I will be back when I feel fresh and have useful something to add. I might also do some consolidation, making more postcards and what-nots from my image stock.

Please feel free to leave any eulogies for the daily season creep in the comments below.

Don't believe a word of it, but a great pop song.

For about 20 years I didn't have a copy of Jade Warrior's Waves album and all I came to remember was the last few minutes of Part 1 - this bit.
