#299 - find me here (a single sunflower centering)

 

18.x.20

299

find me here

 

as were parents once

age wearied them

still for a centre

but it turned out we went round the sun

they took eternity

 

find me here

a little hobby where

a fallen nest

and feathered too

(things sometimes caught

it’s Earth does)

 

find me where

spiders are building

it’s their season

of unpaid overtime

to blow away

make moment

 

and just now

in the garden

we’re seeing who’ll survive

cruel

but it’s who we are

all of this stepping over and through

dangerous things towards

so find me

hard to read at times

 

who dares to blossom at the brink?

and here be vineforth

are wings full of tree

the message left

 

how many ants to get my measure?

a single sunflower centering

 

let’s learn the names of where we are

learn the namelessness as well

 

find me here

all readiness

a loan on tap

and judge against

but you decide

 

time wobbly

and the bindy eye

(proof of malevolent deity)

 

find me at home

a headsup

 

the garden is telling is listening is showing

the garden is watching too

fade

are we eating from the tree?

 

next and then

turn back towards a way we’ve come

eternal battle with the weeds recommences

 

and round the lilting question dance

have leaves in the reflection

 

this is where edge it

waiting for rain

find me

 

so much voice next door

to say it is a world so what

 

walk out the sun and still standing

 

wallaby and joey here of course to hide

and love the dam bank

slip behind, lurk and graze

go dusking

 

orchardly also

a tribe of notes

into the dim

 

where sap had risen

a death becomes our winter warm

 

I take the last of the picture home

come between a self and sleep

and keep it for the night

 

it’s where you’ll find me

 

then sorry I am at my bliss

please get back in touch later

 

we make a wilderness of borders

say forever and thing’s gone
