987

in all we've built

the gone were there

here-now minded

how we had been hoped for

some call was answered

arrows all ways

were page or picture

you decide

came to the window

and someone was climbing out there

one sat watching – that was a laugh

celebrated the snake in the wall

bon appétit

in all we built, close

and caught some pillow sun

frogloud in the months of fire

silly with endearments

the towns were there

for nails and such

and we worked up a sweat

there was nothing without words

and we had them with

squabble sunk at a touch

trees outside higher

and every time you blink

clock run away

some road was peering in

music of a world turns

but we were the ones evolving

the me-and-you and found advice

coin came and went

how lovely when they've left

ambivalence, contention

detente, denouement

a roof come settled

tin like wings

and there's the weather absent

then were the birds in the nest agreed

and in the bush as well

hand to hand jungle

and tuck you in of night

we wished till it was true
