#1814 - once more round this my star

 


1814

5.352

18.xii.24

once more round this my star

 

with care, with wit, with resignation

 

tall as all the heavens

 

dodging the debris

 

clocks, calendars and keys

 

attachment!

delete this!

 

even in the night, press on

 

moon intimate

and take my tide

 

lying down

afoot, hard slog


wrap skin to protect

from my star shines

 

tall in the tale of the telling

got on with

 

punching the air for a point

now and then

send flares

wear spots

 

adept with the pedals

along for the ride

 

labouring under most illusions

angels, unicorns, mermaids, such

and twinkle else if far

 

largely by habit

won’t say whim

 

wish on a hot rock falls

 

antimatter

crop circles

close earth encounters

you must imagine

 

inventing the script as I go

 

the evidence is there

wisdom is received

 

so ... probability is...

 

we’re still in circulation

 

the rakish tilt

with feeling!

for seasons!

 

tricks up to me

and love falls in

 

each of us is slightly singed

still spinning now and then

 

up for adventure always

 

home in time for tea
