don’t
cry over milk
before it’s spilt, its
bent light will turn
time zig-zag
like the air in a belfry
or a sewing machine
rumbling along the horizon
tacking against gravity
leaving earth behind;
graceful as the tarmac earthworm
thrown back onto the soil
the grey ship of a storm
moves over the land
A few readings of this
ReplyDeleteA tarmac earthworm stopped me for a sec
Don't. Won't. I'll try. But so good.
Thanks, Rob — I worried about that too, I meant one found on a road, probably need to change it!
