Why

                                          Was it something that they said, they wore or waved or what
                                                                        they maybe thought they did ..
                                            Or the colour of their skin, or eyes, now largely hid behind
                                                                               those individual lids ..
                                 Not to mention that bloody awful shell-shocked gaze, now staring
                                                                   blind and vacant from behind
                                                those tailor made and inexpensive wooden frames,
                                                             forever gazing upward and with tears
                                  still streaming down each side toward that smoke streaked sky ..

Fungi Have Feelings Too You...

Variously, like crab eye stalks,
they began to fumble and probe blindly
through their own...

Falling for Icarus #2

Falling for Icarus
was sublime while it lasted ..
But in truth,
short-lived to say...

The Sweet Track

a bit of my very local heritage .. taken from Looking Back on...

From the Isle of Westhay
to the mouth
of good old River Brue ..
And standing

WHILE YOU LAY DYING

WHILE YOU LAY DYING

They're wrapped by their own Security...

Yelling for their Power...
