Kit Kelen #1157 - the chatter


1157
the chatter


the chink
glimpse
guilt
so crime

in folds of dawn
a trumpet lost

edge and catch
tin drip chatter

kookaburras
their grubby joke

glow of the rain to come
to gossip

rain glazes
sun rusts out

about the worm divided
sit

shiny like a truth
you polish

wagtails
swampies
wrens

the whole gang told
one got away

and some are upside down to hang
and some walk trunk up
till the trill

a coven
day masked
perfectly still

cartel
all crooks

picture me
streets in this
despite the thing

chorister cruel
where have we been?

in the lightest falls
a feather sky

low bower sweep
pond fond

louder than me
singing from the sedge

invisible, the music –
making, made

some will whisper
for the blue

some sunning
some for shade

all told from a curtain’s edge
now drawn
I idle in this weather too
