We learn to point it's strange


Baby thinks the toy is gone

But it's just behind a book,

Take the other from under your hat

See the joy in baby's look

What does she think of that ?


If you take the book away,

Baby now can see there's two,

What will baby learn to say ?

Is that the world or is that you ?


It's just a game, 

That's fun to play,

Does it somehow shape a brain ?

Or will babies always have 

Their own individual way

Of thinking 






About Time


Time


A song


Which or whom came first in all the every 

things like eggs and chicks and stuff and dust and 

When did people start to feel so empty 

sensing life is running away like sand


A notion in a dream once showed it’s self 

And asked what if the stuff of life could be 

undone like all the letters on a shelf 

Just swept away and we like birds were free 


to fly with songs upon our newborn wings  

and carry twigs like words away to make

Some other worldly home where sadness brings

Its bags upon its weary back to break 


the cycle of destruction so to bring

A steady state of joy where birds can sing.

Snapshot

 

In the veggie cafe,

He sits  infront of her,

Telling her like it all is,

Like she doesn't  know.


He thinks she looks revolutionary,

Kindred spirit, with 

Newly cropped hair,

Big Doc Marten boots, but


She's just getting ready to jump.

A dice with death let's say.

What do you want she asks

Smash the government, he replies


fist demonstrates his depth of feeling.

They both need healing,

Something to change. 


Next week sees him running round

Knocking on doors and shouting

For someone to join him,

Help him


She's in the back of a landrover

on the way to an airfield

where she'll see the sunset,

Four thousand miles up.
