when you’re a kid
everything is big
and new and full
of possibility
but then it slows
until nothing #moves
and who you are
is what you are
just slowly
(150 characters incl. spaces)
a wolf is waiting
outside the door for you
it has an eye tooth snarl
that is ready to muzzle you
it is ready to make its #move
and everything is on fire but you

I will lay
beneath the sea
gently #move
to swell & roll
until far off
a distant wave
will break &
return you
as tide
upon the
shore

we #move in swell and tow
until white chargers
break on distant sand
and we by unknown gravity
return as tide

The river flows.
London sinks.
Its lions drunk,
slipping between
the Walbrook’s hum of synergy
and a hackneyed myth of Trinovantum.

for I will lay
deep beneath
the sea with you
and gently #move
in swell and roll

a distant wave
will break and
slowly return
us as tide
upon the shore

#micropoetry
A tiny slick of
blood & feather
I ask what’s gone
from what’s been left behind
you just #look to the sky
for the echo of its flight

You only see
what’s there, so look
the other way.
