from "Tripping Daylight"
44
Looking for echoes in a crazy decade it might
well have been her forte but for noises off?
camaraderie under political fire and those piece-
meal mild addictions would she have stayed
the place or worse still written the sequel? my
doubts I do forgive when you've witnessed a
favourite trapped offside - it's time to quit in
street-speak such is the glamour for the crime
you get away with! dismiss it at your peril
that's how a voter votes content's not found
by counting clouds she's keen on treating guilt
and the field with exaggerated colour to many
of the cases this was it: the place more plans
than futures here reduced to bouncing off walls
from “Harmony in Black”
Commentary
Much of what I fell for had its origins
In question how easy to balkanize the
simple view in roundabout ways I am
All for the one indictments follow of
course but hardly engage not for a
Minute the ordinary outcome a scroll
Of voices down a screen puts nothing
To bed relax let silence turn this off
Second Flight
Melody and voices the sort I'd put my
Faith in of not entirely obvious then
nothing to fear things harked back
To a locus of persuasion whether I
actually listened not to any impossible
How? but to the red-hot state of alert
I couldn't say words had me chance
On a dying air I could see them fly
