back
then
we said Boat Drinks
like in that film
like we had control
unthinking
on dry drained
hill marsh land
but our plans had their own plans-
shot up the arse
left in a dumpster
like in
that film
~
back
then
the
s e p a r a t i n g
moves of universal turns
sat messed up and howling
in homebrew sediment
and who were we
to do anything
but
wait and roll ?
~
moves
bit
unstoppable
in
unrememberable
goodbye slices
alone but for horses
i saw a bird
fly backward
in high wind
on the allotment path
one dishcloth day
~
bedroom lands become
unhome rental holes
damage deposits
711 stolen bread
weird vibes
in
the
broken lift stairwell
new pub desperation
sang lionel richie
down
the
landline
~
and the hedgehogs
that patrolled
parent-tended
moon-silver lawns
where we barked our drum beats
till the grey paste dawn
are
gone
too

tv speaks
his
springwatch concern
