I pause but for a while to clear the cobwebs from my eyes.
A spider casting blight to those of vision.
Thoughts mirror our surroundings, reflections on reflections in the silken shadow.
Passerine bird on branch with toes aligned.
Snooty percher peering down upon my jaded stamp.
Earthly lodger, urban sand dune drifter by adoption.
Hitchhiker without a hitch, fly by night burgher passing through.
Dusty highway emigre in flight from inner quangos.
Waning crescent on safari in banana boat phase.
Ailing elder, gormless dove endure the common jibe.
Warped focus point and shoot but always at close range.
Moringa oleifera feral feast ….popping fragile pod with spicy taproot.
Swaddled babies orchid heaven sent heaven scented.
Marsh light bonnet bound and gagged.
Quick fix on a fork, mannah from the greasy spoon of kismet.
Wheel of second childhood wedged in brittle spoke.
Miles on the clock, shutters coming down, blinds in sash cord soon to follow.
Frontiers of a final curtain looming
large, but cheerful encores always spur the quest for new nirvanas
