#1787 - another world



1787

5.325

21.xi.24

another world

 

as we have dreamt

 

a matter of fact foretold

 

where life is larger

 

land with no bones

 

time’s race against

 

just the idea

 

bung flicker on the wall

 

wrong told out

 

how least things overawe

 

a swim through soundless space

 

deep in the creature times lies

as in any horizon

 

and sometimes the right word

was there all along

 

must be we dreamt together

 

we must have dreamt it all

#1786 - no questions asked

 


1786

5.324

20.xi.24

no questions asked

 

times think things gone

night’s pockets empty

where’s my card, my key?

 

it’s naked out of hours where

same with the skin

felt here, just there

 

absent, lost as limb

a fine mist peering

inward

 

shape it

see where we were

imagined

 

day will come

as twig rise

when all the edge is fallen

 

tell self away

not how we’ve come

or will or why

 

become

a trick

of light

#1785 - time got faster


 

1785

5.323

19.xi.24

time got faster

in hushed tones

 

it’s to polish

we slowed down

 

always further further

to sleep

 

have you noticed?

time got faster

 

here’s the wheel

while I invent it

 

one day we’ll be

a first day gone

 

a little fire

wings deciduous

 

I’m just climbing now

time forgot us

 

tricked past too

sleep the bones

 

wake the flesh

of the clock

 

death

is a best prediction

 

call that my shine

to see

#1784 - a shoulder to the sky


 

1784

5.322

18.xi.24

a shoulder to the sky

 

who’ll see?

 

if drear then

 

in this wall of rain, the day

 

things dreamt

we must redouble

 

be just as dark with them

 

kind of a yearn

with without

 

come indoors, my mind

 

everything the rain will touch

takes up this little cross of sun

 

old worlds once wished

wished away

 

ask yourself

what can be fixed

 

even when we drop like flies

it’s all of us hold up

 

imagine ourselves along

#1783 - self revel

 



1783

5.321

17.xi.24

self revel

for wise surprise

 

to my ears this calling

 

sign the canvas before I commence

 

in memory of a mountain

 

we erase all selves to tell

 

because the mountain is losing its name

 

I cannot look but go again

 

telescopic too

a hammer in the works

 

a foot in each world

hidden for a clue

 

laugh off

as boat from mooring cast

 

self revel

sign before I start

 

never knowing but that one will

 

it’s a long away in the night where

 

have you noticed

always further?

 

I know I can

I know I will

I know that it’s all in my head

 

everything otherworldly is ours

wishing won’t make it so

#1782 - anonymous moments make me

 



1782

5.320

16.xi.24

anonymous moments make me

 

I take off my head to allow

 

eyes gone

I was, you were

 

it’s here for the dream

 

remember my other selves so

 

how who would land on me

who’d pop inside

 

a tune snatch for the weather

 

from pile of day to drip

 

the street

the night

its treetops

 

random as

 

rife

and size up

blunder through

 

lie out of prediction until

 

it’s all forever ever was

as far as I’m concerned
