#313 - a little note for those who cannot see me

 



10,xi.20

313

a little note for those who cannot see me

 

likely you’re looking in the wrong places

maybe you’re over rainbows?

 

time, I know, is…

google

or

just put the finder through

 

do you need some keywords?

I’m in the clock

often garden

 

daybent, blurring the seasons

come to the end of the line

 

is it because so low in the verbiage?

 

there isn’t a homage could find me at home

but I can give hints

 

shedbrary first thing

catch me stretch

don’t forget siesta

chipping weeds in spring

 

catch me raw

all compost tall

I’m evolving 

 

I’m on the brink of a breakthrough  

could go either way

 

dive in

there is a sea of me

salty, yes, plastic islands

can call them bath toys

 

in the one box

or under one hat

tarred with a single brush

all NO and guess again

 

they threw me under a question mark

where cooked up my own cloud

and it’s gone

 

shroud mysteries

there’s a soundtrack

bring backdrop too

say – history’s page and every stage

always was will be

a picnic for bears

a wood with no name

or just forget it

 

look in the scribble

and the crossings out

 

are there those who’ve not yet heard?

and by the way there’s truth and light

will missionaries be sent?

 

this is the accumulation phase

known otherwise

beaver and squirrel

 

shine like a beacon top of the hill

come all ye faithful

Christmas round the corner to  

and render unto motherhood

dad jokes

 

know I will fall like an empire

on the old rusty sword

grim but grin and bear

 

you too are phenomenon, shall we?

all paws to the dance, no one will see

 

perhaps it’s that I’m so very far

speck on a speck in a spiral arm

lost to a moment lost there

 

I have buried myself already 

that’s taking responsibility

I do it in more of the same

just as you see

 

meet in a dream of own devising

 

postal address is still good

 

and shall we wake to play?

how the old words haunt me

in a certain month

path turned tendril

mattock and

 

such a big target

who could miss?

 

it’s true we are all vanishing

just watch me fuck off now

you’d have to have been there
