1324
I was a centaur
after siesta 
green of the eye 
it was all about tune
thing the sun shone
through 
it was something served
though we never queued
see the two-ness of
winged things 
here and there all
attuned
so follow my let’s say
snout 
came upon them bathing 
fawned, and they set
the dogs
but I was faster,
humble 
in these paws, my means
almost jazz glad 
trail of light crumbs 
melancholic, dramas
this was the forest we
followed 
to here – delight and
harm not
discover ourselves to
be on an island
come thirsty to the
well 
only in water chords
swell to light
a colour we drink here 
 
ReplyDeleteNice poem.
Me, I took a nap after the 20th century,
did it make any difference?
