Whenever the heat reaches an unbelievable peak,
clouds and thunder roll.
The atmosphere is breezeless, breathless,
until souls have cooled and
sky clarity returns.
Poetry?
on the roof 2
icy roof shower
nakedness dodging
the neighbours’ sharp eyes
on the roof
home from the sea
skin sun-scorched
the icy shock of the shower
in silence we watched
in silence we watched the storm of birds
stitch the tattered sky together
as the sun slid down behind the hills
stars shone through the spaces they had missed
I looked at him
I looked at him. He looked at me. I looked at him. He looked at me. He did not blink. I moved half a step closer. He looked at me. I looked at him. Another half step. I looked at him. He looked at me. One more, final, step. I looked at him. He looked at me. I bit him.
floating
floating in water
floating in air
floating in the love your hands hold
Come, stand
Come, stand on my shoulders
They are broad enough
Come, let my arms lift you
They are strong enough
And, when the wind blows,
And, when the spirit takes you,
Fly, fly free
star beat
beneath the star
beats the heart
above the beat
the star shines

beneath the star
beneath the star
beats the heart
your absence
your absence remains on my tongue
like bruised melon
though the taste fades
the sweetness never returns
