ITS A HEAVY SCENE

balls from the poundshop
on the brown grass lawn

are left where the last game ended

& bleached & dirty
they punch at
the low part
of my heart

~

its a heavy scene
like a bomb site snap

broken chair / lost doll
you know ?

so i wrote the following -

        balls
         in the garden
        but
         no child to play
        &
         i dont want children
        but
         i am sad anyway

         balls
